LOS ANGELES (UP)—An organ
It has approved the allocation of materials for 85 per cent of the elementary and secondary school construction projects proposed in California.
Out of more than 1000 California school applications filed since ratification of steel and copper began in July, only about 160 remained pending today.
The bulk of the new starts are authorized for the first three months of next year, although each project is receiving only a partial allotment of the steel required.
"Construction will have to be spread over two or more quarters," said S. L. Simonian, "but we are giving them a chance to make their plans and get started."
Simonian is in charge of west coast allocations in the civilian education requirements division of the Office of Education.
Valedor Club Schedules Six Lecture Meets
The Anaheim-Fullerton Valedor club, composed of Catholic young people of this area, will present a series of lectures beginning Dec. 11 and ending in May, entitled "Focus on Christian Living."
The speaker Dec. 11 will be Hon. Laughlin E. Waters, young California State Assemblyman from Los Angeles, who authored the bill to relieve the non-tax supported schools from tax payments. He is well-qualified to speak on current legislation and the part of the individual in government.
On Jan. 8, a Negro physician from Los Angeles, Dr. Peyton, will be the speaker. His experiences are told in an entertaining style and he permits his listeners to draw their own conclusions on the racial question. He also plays the piano. Dr. Peyton is author of "Quests for Dignity."
Jack Miller of the Associated Farmers of California will report on communist activities in "our own backyard," Feb. 5.
Mar. 11, the Reverend Father Stanislaus Jureko of Fillmore,
standing church men in Orange county, express the hope that the hospital will be ready to open on time, now scheduled for September 1952, and that when the Hoag Memorial hospital, Presbyterian is opened it will be free of debt.
'America Plus' Wants Rights
LOS ANGELES (UP)—An organization called America Plus wants to "restore lost personal, business and private property rights" in California by an initiative amendment to the state constitution which would:
Allow owners of hotels, rental properties, restaurants, bars, bath houses, dance halls, skating rinks and barber shops to choose their patrons or tenants.
Allow employers, except as otherwise provided by contract with employees, to refuse employment to any person.
Allow property owners in a neighborhood to contract with each other concerning who shall occupy habitats in the area.
The proposed amendment, an American Plus tract states, is designed "to correct the abuses which have resulted from coercive legislation and slanted court decisions, and reduce; not augment, racial tensions."
The organization is headed by Aldrich Blake of Laguna Beach, who is now in Tulsa, Okla., where national headquarters may be established.
"Under the guise of misnamed 'Civil Right Codes,' the American citizen's right to the pursuit of happiness, guaranteed by the Declaration of Independence, has been stolen from him," the tract states.
draw his remarks from a very personal acquaintance with the reds. He was a Polish boy in the Russian army and his family was very much affected by the reds.
No speaker has been engaged for April as yet. In May a speaker from the Family Rosary Crusade founded by Father Patrick Peyton will keynote the Month of Our Lady.
All lectures will be held in St. Boniface Hall at Palm and Charleston church men in Orange county, express the hope that the hospital will be ready to open on time, now scheduled for September 1952, and that when the Hoag Memorial hospital, Presbyterian is opened it will be free of debt.

CALIFORNIANA—Mission Santa Barbara was founded Dec. 4, 1786, by Fathers Fermin Francisco Lasuen, Antonio Paterna and Cristobal Oramaa. It was the tenth California mission founded in California by the Franciscans and was named for Saint Barbara, daughter of a rich merchant of Heliopolis, Egypt, who embraced Christianity in the third century, for which she was beheaded by her father, Dioscorus, who was struck by a bolt of lightning and killed immediately after the execution. Saint Barbara is regarded as the patron saint of thunderstorm and fire, the protector of artillerymen and miners.

Cadet Students Riot at VMI Over Early Hour Curfew
LEXINGTON, Va. (UP) — A sweeping investigation was underway today into a noisy and destructive uprising by students at Virginia Military Institute.
Before the Sunday night-Monday morning affair was over, the historic "West Point of the South" saw windows and lights shattered; furniture burned; property destroyed and some rooms flooded with water.
The cadets—wearied by the 40 minutes of "protesting"—went to classes early yesterday with only about two hours sleep after a five-mile, three-hour hike to "cool them off" and discipline them.
There was some disagreement among VMI officials as to what provoked the sudden protest. But there was little disagreement that the affair got out of hand for more than half an hour.
Some cadets termed the damage heavy. A VMI spokesman said, however, that it was "not expensive." He said the cadets will bear the cost of repairs.
The spokesman said there had been some recent "resentment by cadets" to a "general tightening up" of VMI regulations. He added:
"The disorder presumably was in protest of this tightening up. It is presumed that it was precipitated in protest over enforcement of a regulation concerning the time cadets were required to return to barracks on the night of a dance held the preceding weekend."
But cadets themselves said the uprising came as the result of the strict "bed checks" by one officer. They said they waited until the officer, not identified, again was officer of the day.
Cinderella Wants Money from Prince In Worst Way
SAN FRANCISCO (UP)—California's 16-year-old Cinderella wants more than a golden slipper from her millionaire "Prince."
Martha Morris De Vigier, Torrance, Calif., high school coed, had a whirlwind courtship and 15-day European honeymoon with Roland De Vigier, 28.
But yesterday, charging mental cruelty, she sued for separate maintenance. She asked $10,000 a month, $75,000 attorney fees and a share in community property. De Vigier is executive vice president of Acrow, Inc., manufacturer of heavy construction equipment with plants in Europe, Africa, Australia and North America.
Martha is reported in hiding hereabouts. She met the millionaire over a malt at Long Beach. They were married at Quarizite, Ariz., Nov. 14.
Her mother, Mrs. Charles Morris, informed in Torrance of the suit, exclaimed:
"It's all so ridiculous! Why, only Sunday I ate lunch with them and they were very happy!"
Martha's suit said their marriage hadn't been consumated.

Mother Receives Second War Notice
UTICA, Mich. (UP)—Just two months ago, the body of 19-year-old Pvt. John A. DeForest was returned to his home here for burial. He was killed in action in Korea.
His younger brother, Pfc. Benjamin DeForest, 18, left the Korean fighting to escort the body home. Then he went back to war.

Unsettled Weather Causes Decrease
FRESNO (UP)—The State Department of Employment today reported a decrease in the San Joaquin Valley farm labor force of more than 11,000 workers.
Unsettled weather, together with the near completion of the cotton harvest in the two southernmost valley counties, were blamed for the decrease.
The department said there were only 124,000 workers in the seven southern valley counties last week, compared with 135,000 the previous week.
The department estimated the cotton harvest in Kern county is

Irish to Receive Money in Hopes of Improving Culture
DUBLIN, Ireland (UP)—The new science (or is it art?) of Irriculture—the propagation of manners, culture and a refined type of barney among the Irish, that is—got a big bankroll today and a hatful of ideas on how to spend it.
George Bernard Shaw's wife, who died eight years ago, left the money—the equivalent of $263,200—to teach the Irish culture. And a judge decided yesterday her will could be carried out although, being English, he expressed some misgivings about the probable results.
But Mrs. Shaw, being Irish-born, perhaps knew something of Irish capabilities, particularly inasmuch as she was married to one of Ireland's more refined cultural types who wrote the English some of their best plays since Shakespeare died.
And Irish cultural leaders are full of suggestions on how to polish the citizens of the Emerald Isle.
Irish music should come high on the list, said Michael Connery, secretary of the Irish Academy of Music. Symphonic reels and tone poem ligs, maybe.
A chunk of the money could well help Irish artists build and equip an exhibition hall, thought Maurice McGonigal, an eminent Irish painter. A proper home for scenes of craggy coast and stone fences on green hills.
And maybe a bit for research and some to help students traveling abroad, said Prof. Ernest Alton, provost of Dublin's Trinity college.
Senator Fulbright Feels New Fair Employment Practice Order May Hurt
WASHINGTON (UP) — Senator Fulbright (D-Ark) said today if a new fair employment practices order issued by President Truman is enforced "in a political way" it may interfere with defense production.
And Senator Gillette (D-Iowa) predicted the president's action "will lead to a whale of a controversy" in Congress.
Mr. Truman signed at Key West. Flu., yesterday an order providing for a committee to encourage compliance with a standard clause in government contracts aimed at preventing discrimination against negroes and other minority groups in the hiring of workers by government contractors. No enforcement procedure was provided in the order.
Phileo Nash, White House staff member dealing with civil rights and minority affairs, said there had been "some complaints" contractors weren't enforcing the clause.
Fulbright, an opponent of the administration's civil rights program, told a reporter he hasn't heard of any such complaints.
"If the committee goes about its work in a fair and equitable way, this order may not cause too much trouble," the Arkansas Senator observed. "But if they are just trying to build up a furore for the next election and the order is enforced in a political way it may interfere with defense production."
Mr. Truman didn't call the new FEPC such as operated in World War II have contended that the mixing of racial groups in some labor forces in the south would breed strikes and other strife.
Mr. Truman apparently left a way out of any such situation by giving Defense Mobilizer Charles E. Wilson a veto power over recommendations of the committee.
Publisher Cites Examples of Cases To Sunpress News
SAN MARINO (UP) — Repeated efforts to suppress news in California were cited last night by Ralph H. Turner, publisher of the Temple City Times, in a talk before a civic group.
"We are organizing to do something about it," said Turner, who is co-chairman of a committee on freedom of information of the California Newspaper Publishers association.
"We do not intend to break down closed doors by physical action nor to post ourselves at keyholes," he said. "We propose a vigorous assertion of our rights, particularly our right to access to public records."
Last August, the publisher said, the State Department of Public Health refused a request of Henry McArthur of the Capitol News Service in Sacramento to see a report on the Sonoma County hospital.
A chunk of the money could well help Irish artists build and equip an exhibition hall, thought Maurice McGonigal, an eminent Irish painter. A proper home for scenes of craggy coast and stone fences on green hills.
And maybe a bit for research and some to help students traveling abroad, said Prof. Ernest Alton, provost of Dublin's Trinity college.
But a spokesman for the National City bank of Dublin, trustee for the money, admitted it hadn't given much thought so far to ways of culturing the Irish with it.
"It will be at least a year before any money accrues to use from the estate anyway," he said. "There's plenty of time."
65 per cent complete and the Tu-lare county harvest 67 per cent complete.
PENSACOLA, Fla. (UP)—A Navy plane crashed beside the scenic highway along the bluffs overlooking Escambia Bay Monday night, and six service men were killed.
Wages, Weather Halt Ships
SAN FRANCISCO (UP) — Eight west coast ships may be prevented from sailing because of a wage dispute between the Marine Cooks and Stewards union and the Pacific Maritime association.
The PMA said the stewards' refusal, if it continues, will prevent the ships from sailing. But stbrym weather delayed loading of several of the vessels, and none was ready to depart yesterday.
The Riverside Police department at one time withheld from the Riverside Daily Press all information about arrests of persons driving while intoxicated, Turner said. "The newspaper obtained the news anyway, and a little pressure has since convinced the chief of police that his records are public and will be made available to the newspaper."
