The cooperating guilds setting up this unified organization are the Helpers Guild, St. Agnes Guild, the Altar Guild, the Susan Lafaucherie Guild and the women members of Los Miguelitos. Also women attending the church who owing to no guild are cooperating. MORE ABOUT... Jr. High (Continued from Page 1) tary district from which pupils come. Dropping the 9th grade will leave space for 350 more students in the high school. Arthur H. Shipkey presided at the first part of the session and All A. Holve the last part. Holve is to appoint one member of each school district to meet with Ralph K. Wines, teacher of commercial subjects at the high school, Jan. 4 and his curriculum committee to try to discover what studies and advantages are desired by the parents in the junior high districts. D. T. Mackey of the Cypress board said the proposed site for the western school is between Cerritos and Lincoln aves, and Holder and Walker sts., which is centrally located for the Los Alamitos, Cypress and Stanton children and not too close to dairies. Forty acres per school is desired to provide for a future senior high school, if it is found necessary. The site for the eastern school has been suggested east of Lemon st. on South st. in Anaheim. Fremont school could be converted to a junior high school and would save the district money, but the grounds are too small for sports and athletic fields, the committee felt. They favored a 20-acre site for each junior high school since each will start with approximately 600 students. The citizen's committee was instructed to report back to their groups and the P-TA organizations were asked to meet with their trustees and come to a meeting at the high school Jan. 24, 7:30 p.m., to vote on the junior high school proposition. LOS ANGELES (AP) — Paul J. Donavan's effort to block execution of Mrs. George Bernard Shaw's will ran into a stone wall in court yesterday. Sidewalk Requested A petition from residents of S. Palm st., and S. Helena st., to have a side walk installed at the corner of South st., and Palm was read and resulted in instructions to the street superintendent to proceed with measures for installing the side walk under the 1911 Improvement Act. A public hearing on the matter was set for Jan. 8. At which time objections to the order may be registered. Receipt of a $558.40 claim against the city for damages incurred in an accident Oct. 1, involving an Anaheim police car and one driven by Sherman A. Todd of Los Angeles, was acknowledged by the council. However, the validity of the claim, transmitted by Bradley and Gregory, Los Angeles attorneys, was denied and it was stated that the city will press a counter claim for $634.77 damages against Todd.

After burning several Indian huts, he departed from California. SPORTOPIX — Although Garden Grove fooballers dominated the Orange County league all-star team this year, Brea-Olinda's captain, Marvin Hoover, made the first team. He is an unusual young man as he is a vegetarian and does not train on beef steaks. Joe Gudmundson, the powerfully-built red-haired Icelander, Jim Riley and Jack Towle received second-string recognition. Joe Laborde, a star for a losing cause, was the only Placentian to gain recognition. Valencia's Kelly Hester was given honorable mention. Sammy Reymundo, a powerfully built, broad-shouldered young man who helped make John Tynes' great Valencia B team of 1950 was on the injured list most of the season. Reymundo reminds old-time (like Erie Lenz) of Anahil's Ralph De Palma Anaheim-Fullerton. Ralph De Palma, winner of more automobile races than any other man in history, will be the featured speaker at a joint meeting of Anaheim-Fullerton Optimist Clubs this Thursday evening at Mother's Kitchen. His talk will clmax an Optimist safety conclave called to review the activities of bth clubs in their endeavors to make the streets of their respective cities safe for children. Though one of the greatest racing drivers of all time with a record of 38 wins in 100-mile or over championship races, Ralph De Palma today is a champion of traffic safety. As a representative of the Public Relations Department of General Petroleum, he has spoken to thousands of school children throughout the southland. Indianapolis Winner Ralph De Palma, according to the record books, took part in 2,889 races and won 2,557 of them. He was twice winner of the Van derbilt Trophy and was the 1915 winner of Indianapolis 500 mile Memorial Day classic. From 1908 to 1927 he was a familiar figure in southern California where he has competed from Santa Monica to Corona. His Mt. Wilson hill climb at Pasadena in 1924 still stands. De Palma has promised to illustrate his safety discussion with a documentary film highlighting the legendary racing heroes of the MORE ABOUT ...

SEARCH FOR HALF-PINT Police of Santa Ana today were hunting a pint-sized burglar, who squeezed through a small window at the Wilshire service station, 1635 W. Eighth st., Santa Ana, last night, and stole wares valued at $22. The burglar scraped the window putty away with a pocket knife, to obtain entry. Stolen were a table radio, seven cartons of cigarettes, a flashlight, and two chrome tail-pipe tips. The stock of tires and batteries was not disturbed, and the cash in the cash drawer was not molested. DETROIT (P)—A reference to possible "collusion" between big auto companies and their suppliers in defense contract bidding enlivened a Congressional inquiry into army procurement policies today. Truck Bid Accepted Retired police officer E. Roger Sherman's appointment to the Anaheim police reserves was ratified by the council. The Chevrolet Motor Co., was awarded a contract to supply a one-ton salvage and rescue truck for the Anaheim fire department on their low bid of $2011.

Reymundo reminds old-timers (like Eric Lens) of Anahi's hard-running bone-crushing great back of another day—Klyoahl Shlkegawa. REMINDER — Neil Stanley, who used to prepare newscasts for the top ABC commentators will remind you that there are just ten more shopping days until Christmas. PASSING — Tommy Forster, the San Juan Capistrano athlete, is a chip off the old block. His dad, George (Buddy) Forster, was one of Fullerton's gridiron greats back in the 1920's. Following his graduation from UCLA he was a radio crooner... Melita Forster, Bud's kid sister, played a lot of softball for Cecil Crow's Merrie Oldsmobiles and the Orange Lionettes. She inherited a good chunk of Capistrano real estate... Al Foster, who started in the sand and gravel business, enjoys himself playing his electric organ. "I'm no musician, but I get a kick out of it." Al must be something like "Death Valley" Scotty. He, too, had an organ—a mighty Wurlitzer-on which he played "The Whistler and his Dog." MEMO—Uncle Sam always mails out "Christmas cards"—Income Tax Blanks—reminders not to spend too much so that there'll be enough left March 15. PEOPLE — Verne Wilkinson, the Norco druggist who is also a Fullerton city councilman, says it is up to Ralph McFadden and the Board of Supervisors to get signals for the Orangethorpe death-traps (Lemon street, Raymond and Cypress avenue crosses).

According to Harwood Larson, Optimist president, Friday noon saw L. H. "Jim" Grigsby and a full crew of "top" plasterers go into action: Saturday the Grigsby gang was back on the job. The professional plasterers who so generously worked on the Optimist boys building included Jim Grigsby, Henry Schindler, Roy Payton, Arnold Graski, Don Duval, R. A. Grigsby and Paul Peterson. Roy Velarde, another local plastering contractor, volunteered his services to swing a trowel with the others.
