JEOPDORE B. KUCHEL MAX BEELER LEONARD GREIDT STANLEY JOUER NEIL STANLEY G. E. MELLER RALPH BOULAND DON YOUNG On the weather front... From The New York Times The continuing climate feud between the Sunshine State and the Golden State has produced a new scene in the hundred-year-old play that has featured Florida and California in the two starring roles. Touched deeply by the heavenly downpour in the West, the Junior Chamber of Commerce of Miami, Plain, instituted "Operation Umbrella," a humanitarian act designed to offer relief for the suffering Californians. With a tear of compassion in its eye—it must be admitted—a touch of smirk on its collective face the "sun-drenched" Chamber sent a shipment of umbrellas to "aid Los Angeles in its battle against torrential rains." Only trouble was that when the head-protecting items arrived the sun was shining. Back came a reply not exactly calculated to promote closer relations between the two states—to the effect that Florida's motives were appreciated but the umbrellas had arrived in a useless condition caused no doubt, by their constant use in hurricanes. However, said the Angelenos, they were keeping one of them—to put in a museum so that Californians would know how tough things were for other parts of the country. These little tiffs between the lands of The Good Life are ever a source of enjoyment to us in the North. And we are always prone to think that, alas, perhaps that is where we should be. Too Rain and hurricanes and pretty girls and all. California's climates... In one recorded instance on the TV-RADIOLOGY HOLLYWOOD—Messengers—"King of the Coast and Dale Evans, his co-star, who is known as 'Queen of Fashion,' In a recent interview at Goldwyn studios, were in the finishing their 20th half-hour show, Roy and Dale little about their new which, of course, shows a top-rater with the kings. The show is a strung massa, western flavor, puff thrills and action fights.

Yes, Trigger is but in his own spec trailer. Regardless of the cost and the rainstorms, they been working at top speed the weather was good, outdoor scenes were fine when the heavy California descended, the cast mingled with the Goldwyn studios. Dale had suffered a scare she continued to work herself in a blanket takes maintaining her health... California's climates... From The New York Times News of trains and towns lurked in Sierra snows and of floods sweeping southern California with tragic loss of life may make some persons wonder what has become of the Golden State's celebrated climate. Nothing has become of it. It is going to extremes this year, but it is not doing anything that it has not done before. Moreover, there is no California climate. There is a series of California climates. The word climate in California is a slogan applied largely to the area around Los Angeles and historically employed to attract tourists and settlers. This climate, extending along the coast and coastal valleys, is pretty good. From San Diego well to the north of San Francisco there is relatively little variation between summer and winter temperatures. The change is provided by winter rain and, along the coast, by summer fog. But the favored coastal valleys and foothills are only part of the picture. The Central Valley in summer is not enough to suit anybody. It is not enough to suit a malarial salamander. Presno and Bakersfield, those flourishing and lovely modern cities, may watch the thermometer climbing above 110. On the other hand, in the high ranges the winter temperatures may go far below zero. These little tiffs between the lands of The Good Life are ever a source of enjoyment to us in the North. And we are always prone to think that, alas, perhaps that is where we should be. Too Rain and hurricanes and pretty girls and all. —in one recorded instance, on the top of Mt. Lassen, 65 degrees below zero. The rainfall may be slight. There are winters in the south when almost no rain falls. There are also winters, such as the present, when a few inches of rain fall in a few hours with disastrous results. Nor are heavy Sierra snows exceptional. On the average they run from 300 to 400 inches a season. One locality in Alpine County was blessed with 844 inches in a single winter. If these prodigious snows did not occur, the loss in irrigation water and its power would vastly exceed that caused occasionally by snow-blocked roads and spectacular floods. The climates of California are part of the wealth of California. The coast, the great valleys, the Sierra crests, are all sections of a great machine operated by nature in such a way as to sustain a great and increasing population. The people of the afflicted areas have our sympathy in their present troubles, but these troubles are transient. In the long run California's problem will be less in dealing with catastrophes of the weather than in finding room and opportunities for the millions from other parts of the country who would like to go out there and settle. IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 50 Years Ago February, 1902 25 Years Ago February, 1927 Regardless of the coolness and the rainstorms, they been working at top speed the weather was good, outdoor scenes were fine when the heavy Californiascended, the cast melded the Goldwyn studios. Dale had suffered a set she continued to work herself in a blanket takes, maintaining her as a "good trouper." The fine teamwork operation of the entail was very noticeable, of "please ... thanks ..." on the set It's pleasure to find this spirit on a set, rather usual screaming from producer and director, most always resulting bling from the cast. The series is particular for its exceptional photography which makes Viewing, and for its gourmet value for al. The theme song, "Hap to You" was written by OBLIFY FROM. THERE IS HARDLY yeaam to hear from his w appreciated. Nothing like heights of attainment. The following letter w red to this department front office last Tuesday Gentlemen: "I would like for you please discontinue my visit to the Gazette.

He should hear in them are given a duty to IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Anaisheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 50 Years Ago February, 1902 The rival stage lines to Santa Ana have effected a compromise, and the rates of fare have been raised to 75 cents instead of 25 cents. The Messrs. Plato came to the front this morning in a new ad, in which they call public attention to their stock of new holiday goods. They have a fine assortment of unique and handsome articles adapted for presents. The time-honored custom of beating old tin cans and making hideous noises was not forgotten at the wedding of Mr. J. Winters. The boys were all on hand and did their level best. The annual election of Santa Ana lodge No. 241. P. and A. M., was held on Saturday evening. The following were the officers elected: B. B. Guthrie, W.M.; Isaac Harding, S.W.; G. W. Vance, P.W.; J. H. Fruit, treasurer; J. N. Burnett, secretary. There was another race at Mr. Gibson's ranch yesterday between the horses belonging to Messrs. Gibson and Howe. The Gibson horse was the winner. 25 Years Ago February, 1927 An old fashioned game cock fight with 10 dead roosters at the side of the ring. Two others fighting for their lives in the circle, and 62 Mexicans as interested spectators, was the scene that greeted the eyes of four deputy sheriffs who were called to Brea canyon recently and who arrested five men and two women. Two men were fined $500 each and two others were each given 30. gay jail sentences. As the officers, Ed McClellan, Jimmy Smith, Jack Comb and Don Mozley approached, the crowd made a hasty retreat. All were rounded up, however, after several shots were fired into the air by the authorities. In the mad scrambles for safety that was taken by a number of the fighters, sacks containing cocks were dropped and a number of the roosters hopped out. Unmindful of the approach of the officers or the fleeing men and women, the freed roosters squared off and fought among themselves for several minutes before the officers could stop them. Thirty-five roosters, 10 dead cocks, a set of slashers used as artificial spurs for the cocks, and a number of sacks and boxes used to carry the chicks to the fighting grounds were captured. "Then his criticism great State of Texas when MacArthur was invited there caused me to know your writer is a very united man." Not that Texas, but the very fact one of our greatest states every respect. "There are too many in Mr. Hunter's 'Views' for enumerate." "I do not care to supe paper that prints such blatantments." Yours truly, Mrs.- Lady, insolar as Taixuscerned, you cannot correct that I am uninformed, two years in the state, frost to 1945, in the employ of oral. As it turned out, I opened a love for neither. Granted that this colour poked a bit of fun at Taixus time to time, but there is no too devilishly wrong with The Taixans are pretty good spoofing other states, too. AS FOR THE general column has at no time affixed to detract from their brigade records on the field of TV-RADIOLOGIC Heavy Filming Schedule Set for Roy Rogers' TV By TOM E. DANSON HOLLYWOOD—Meet Roy Rogers—"King of the Cowboys"—and Dale Evans, his lovely wife and co-star, who is appropriately known as "Queen of the West." In a recent interview on the set at Goldwyn studios, where they were in the finishing touches of their 20th half-hour television show, Roy and Dale told me a little about their new TV series, which, of course, should become a top-rater with the kids. The show is a straight drama, western flavor, packed with thrills and action from Roy, Dale and Trigger "the smartest horse in the movies" (Roy was just offered $100,000 cash for Trigger by a Texas oilman and rancher), and Bullet the wonder dog, which I will feature in a story at a later date. When I talked to Roy and Dale, they were practically knocking themselves out trying to stay with a schedule so they could travel to Houston, Tex., where they will appear in the Fat Stock Show and Rodeo. Yes, Trigger is going too, but in his own specially built trailer. Regardless of the cold weather and the rainstorms, the unit has been working at top speed. When the weather was good, all of the outdoor scenes were filmed, and when the heavy California "dew" descended, the cast moved into the Goldwyn studios. Although Dale had suffered a severe cold, she continued to work, wrapping herself in a blanket between takes maintaining her health. DOWN TV-RADIO ROW... A letter to KHJ recently was addressed to... "Cover Handling, Station KHJ, Hollywood, Calif." A search for a Don Lee employee by that name proved futile; however Terry Mann, account exec came up with a solution. A creamery account of his was running an offer and the air copy called for the announcer to say... "mail 10 cents to cover handling, etc..." It seems this listener not only took it literally, but verbatim! TELE-TIPS... Here we go again... now he's on TV! The "Squealdn' Deacon" bows in on KNBH (4) at 7... "Stupid cuddle."

When the weather was good, all of the outdoor scenes were filmed, and when the heavy California "dew" descended, the cast moved into the Goldwyn studios. Although Dale had suffered a severe cold, she continued to work, wrapping herself in a blanket between takes, maintaining her reputation as a "good trouper." The fine teamwork and cooperation of the entire gang was very noticeable, with lots of "please... thanks..." and "would you be kind enough to..." on the set. It's really a pleasure to find this kind of spirit on a set, rather than the usual screaming from the producer and director, which almost always results in grumbling from the cast. The series is particularly noted for its exceptional sharp photography which makes for easy Tviewing, and for its general entertainment value for all. The theme song, "Happy Trails to You" was written by Roy and Bigamy and murder are the main ingredients of the story "The Mallet" over KHJ at 7, with Orson Welles narrating. Pianist Mel Henke will guest tonight with lovely singing star Lucille Norman from KNX at 7:30. Dorothy McGuire stars tonight in the Cavalcade of America drama of "Thunder of Justice" when aired from KFI at 8:30. "America Town Meeting" will debate the topic, "Is the West Losi the Middle East?" when heard on KECA at 9. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY... Non-intervention in matters romantic is the highest form of diplomacy. Copyright, 1951, by Universal Radio and TV Features Syndicate OBLONG VIEWS FROM AN EGG-SHAPED HEAD BY WALDO HUNTER THERE IS HARDLY a struggling young columnist who does not yearn to hear from his vast, unseen audience, and letters are always appreciated. Nothing like a pat on the back to spur one on to further heights of attainment. The following letter was referred to this department by the front office last Tuesday: Gentlemen: "I would like for you to please discontinue my subscription to the Gazette, "I do not care to see in print The Oblong Views from an Egg Shaped Head." "I do not disagree with Mr. Hunter in his opinions that generals are not fit material for the presidency, but I do not like his attitude toward our great generals. He should bear in mind that they are given a duty to perform, Generals MacArthur and Eisenhower, it is agreed the world over, performed monumentally in World War II. It is when the generals, after a lifetime devoted to one occupation, take a notion to step out of character and obtrude themselves high-handedly into an entirely different field that I exercise my prerogative of getting mad. It is my contention that we civilians can run the government; the generals can run the military. They should be kept in the role of public servants; not masters. One of the generals once said: "New York (P)—Peace reigned in the Olympic basketball committee today after a budding revolution over tryout dates was settled to the satisfaction of all. Originally, all tryouts were to be held in Madison Square Garden. That made several members of the committee, including Harry Henshel of New York, unhappy. Henshel protested loud and long. The result: First round tryouts will be split between the Garden and Kansas City. Henshel had argued that the committee would lose $25,000 by holding the tryouts in New York instead of Kansas City. But Howard Hobson, Yale coach and a committee member, had made arrangements for the tryouts in New York. Henshel said Hobson had no right making such a contract. Ned Irish, executive vice president of the Garden, said the contract was made and that was that. Teams which qualify for the trials are the first four in the AAU tourney, two from the NCAA tourney and the winners of the national invitation and NAIB. Here is the complete revised program: March 29 at Kansas City—NCAA champion vs NAIB championship postseason playoffs... The prospect of a possible October series with the winner of the Mexican league sounds very interesting... Sportscaster Sam Balter has declared "The Great Experiment" of calling only cage fouls having a bearing on the game a success. He reffed the Los Alamitos Navy-LA State tiff last Saturday eve and called only nine infractions while co-worker Doug Essick was tooting on but 15, a very low total of 24. Balter proclaimed on his radio show that almost all players were enthusiastic over the "New winners in college b two winners in AA meet. April 1 at New M college team winner w winner.

March 20 at New York—AAU champion vs AAU third or fourth team and NIT champion vs NCAA runner up. March 31 at New York—Two Jensen Feels He is Better than Mantle OAKLAND (F)—"Who do you think will succeed Joe DiMaggio as New York Yankee centerfielder?" Jackie Jensen, a Yankee part timer, was asked. For the cocky former All America grid star, the answer was easy. "I will," he told baseball writers yesterday. Jensen, who hit .298 in 56 games last season, said he would beat out star rookie Mickey Mantle because "I think I can outhit him, outthrow him and run the bases faster." Mantle hit .267 in 96 games. Ferris Fain, leading American League hitter last year, said he wants more money, but that he will not become a holdout. "I have to play baseball," he said.

The choice of Cal's Brutus Hamilton as coach of the US Olympic track forces rates as a Miss Burr Top U.S. Skier on Olympic Team ST. ANTON, Austria (AP)—Janette Burr skis the year around—on snow in winter and on water in summer. She's so good at both that she is the second ranking star on the United States winter Olympic ski team and champion of Europe on water. This 24-year-old girl from Seattle is an all-around athlete—an excellent skater, enthusiastic mountain climber and a fisher. She even rides a unicycle. At the University-of Washington, where she majored in physical education, Janette managed to get in about six hours a day of sports besides her studies, then skied nearly every weekend. She seems never to tire. This amazing strength and vitality rocketed her to the top within an amazingly short time after she donned her first pair of skis. Unlike most ski champions who begin as children, Janette never skied until she was 18. She began racing the same year. "I just learned to ski by racing," she says. By 1948, she was U.S. national champion in downhill racing. "Then I really got interested," she says. So she got a job as a waitress in Sun Valley, Idaho, where she could ski every day. She made the Sun Valley team and placed high in several American races. At the world championship in Aspen, Colb., in 1950, Janette was a member of the U.S. team but had only fair luck—seventh in downhill, 14th in slalom and Wildcats Hold Top Spot in AP Cage Poll NEW YORK (AP)—Kentucky, riding a 12-game winning streak, won the Associated Press basketball poll for the second straight week today but Kansas State and Illinois are hard on the Wildcats' heels. The Wildcats defeated Vanderbilt, Ashburn and Notre Dame in six days. They added another triumph after the polls closed by trouncing Tulane, 108-54, last night. Kentucky, boasting an 18-2 record, accumulated 811 points including 41 first place votes. Kansas State's Wildcats came second with 571 points including 93 first places. Illinois retained third, drawing eight firsts and 705 points. Kansas State has a 13-3 record and Illinois 18-1. Trailing the big three are the nation's only two major unheaten fives. St. Bonaventure and Duquesne. Top ten (first place votes in parentheses): Teams & W-L Record Points 1. Kentucky (41) 18-2 ... 811 2. Kansas State (23) 13-3 ... 751 3. Illinois (8) 18-1 ... 705 4.

Semi final losers meet in third place game. Thus Madison Square Garden gets both the semi finals and finals, Kansas City gets a natural since the NAIB tourney is held there. Irish said he was pleased with the change. "The main thing to do is raise as much money as possible," he observed. "It's a happy solution for us and the committee." Charity Week Arrives at Santa Anita ARCADIA (P)—This is charity week at Santa Anita, and everything over actual expenses will be turned over by the Los Angeles Turf club to worthwhile causes. Three topflight handicaps are to be run, starting with the Los Cerritos at six furlongs, $15,000 of guys named Schoenedienst and Schmees playing the initial sack for their respective clubs. Really a phonetic delight for everyone but the baseball broadcasters... Santa Clara's upset of UCLA last Saturday night at the Cow Palace qualifies as the No. 1 cage upset of the Far West season to date. The choice of Cal's Brutus Hamilton as coach of the US Olympic track forces rates as a sound one from all angles... Hamilton is one of the most popular mentors with the athletes in the profession. Sedgman Not to Play in Nationals COLOMBO, Coylon (E)—Frank Sedgman, Australia's brilliant tennis ace, said today he will not defend his American singles championships at Forest Hills. Instead, Sedgman said he will concentrate on trying to win the Wimbledon title, which has eluded him. The Aussie Davis Cup star will tour Europe after the Asian tournament here. He has won virtually every important tennis title except Wimbledon, where he was defeated in last year's quarterfinal round by Herbie Flam. He won the U.S. singles crown Sept. 4, sweeping Philadelphia's Vic Seixas off the court. 6-4, 6-4, 6-1. MORE ABOUT Hollywood Stars (Continued from Page 1) pitched camp and they held forth for the next three years with the war ending their-stay in Ariaheim. Now the Angels are holding camp in near-by Fullerton where they have held spring training camp for the past few years. Following the Angels to Anaheim were the St. Louis Browns and then Sacramento Solons. For the past two years no pro ballclub has held camp in Anaheim, although several clubs have held try-out camps for the up and coming players of the area. Last year Brooklyn held that type of camp. Host Defending Champs. The Stars open their Pacific Coast schedule at home against the Seattle Rainiers, defending Pacific Coast champs, April 1. It marks the 50th season of continuous play in the Pacific Coast loop. The 1952 schedule of 180 games for the Stars, which is listed below, returns to the week-long series basis. A split-week experiment last season failed to go over with the fans, players and in general failed to pan out. The Hollywood Stars will make their off-diamond camp at the Pickwick hotel, located on S. Los Angeles st. Their spring training schedule will be announced soon. Due to their site change, at the seemingly last minute, several changes will have to be taken care of. The Stars signed a contract with Frank Van Burkled, a 17-year-old 6'2", 210-pound first baseman-pitcher from Marshall high of Los Angeles only yesterday with Santa Anita ARCADIA (P)—This is charity week at Santa Anita, and everything over actual expenses will be turned over by the Los Angeles Turf club to worthwhile causes. Three topflight handicaps are to be run, starting with the Los Cerritos at six furlongs, $15,000 added, tomorrow. There will be a doubleheader Saturday, the $25,000 San Felipe at a mile and one-sixteenth and the $20,000 added San Marcos at one mile. The Los Cerritos is for fillies and mares. It will serve as a tuneup for a few likelies that may go on in the big $100,000 added Santa Anita handicap March 1. Twenty-three were nominated for the Los Cerritos: Special Touch 132, Sickle's Image 120, Sweet Talk 117, How 116, Last Greetings 115, A Gleam, Notthirdchance 112, Princess Lydia, Spanish Cream 111, Flyamanita, Great Dream 110, Dashing By, Blue Moon 108, Aunt Jimmy, Lyceum 107, Fast Reward, Fleet Rings 106, Messalina, Blue Lea 105, La Franza 104, Frigid 103, War Union 102 and Rosella 100. ABAGON FIGHTS LOS ANGELES (P)—Art Aragon returns to the boxing wars tonight for the first time since he lost a decision to lightweight champion Jimmy Carter and a disputed decision in a cafe to featherweight Lauro Salas. Aragon, who jokingly refers to himself as "ex-golden boy" since taking a bad boating in December from Carter, engages young Manny Madrid in the 10-round main event at the Olympic auditorium. He has won virtually every important tennis title except Wimbledon, where he was defeated in last year's quarterfinal round by Herbie Flam. He won the U.S. singles crown Sept. 4, sweeping Philadelphia's Vie Seixas off the court, 6-4, 6-4, 6-1. Johnny Longden Wins Another Honor ARCADIA (P)—Johnny Longden, three times national riding champion, has been selected the Rider of 1951 by turf writers covering the Santa Anita meeting. The selection entitles him to the George Woolf Memorial award, which will be presented at Santa Anita on Lincoln's birthday. Longden received nine votes. Johnny Adams and Dave Gorman deadheaded for second with six each. Single ballots were cast for Eddie Arcaro, Ted Atkinson and Eric Guerin. Prior winners were Gordon Glisson in 1942 and Willie Shoemaker in 1950, neither of whom was eligible again. Longden won the national riding crown in 1938-47-48. MANGRUM WINS INGLEWOOD (P)—Lloyd Mangrum picked up $1000 in the second annual "Stars Under the Stars" gold tournament last night. The sponsor promised the winner $1000 for each stroke he bettered par 72. Mangrum shot 71. Other scores were Jack Burke, Jr. 72, Jimmy Demaret 75, Dr. Cary Middlecoff 75, Tommy Bolt 76 and Joe Louis, ex-heavyweight champ, 81.
