Anaheim Gazette MONDAY, MARCH 17, 1902 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Anaheim schools face a problem... It almost is tragic when you contemplate that billions and billions of dollars are extracted from the nation's people and businesses—much of the money going nobody knows where—and yet, Anaheim is facing decision whether or not we can afford new schools; whether we should draw in our bolt and get along with the school facilities we now have. Under consideration by the high school board of trustees is the very real problem of whether to bend the high school district probably to its legal capacity in order to provide two junior high schools to take the pressure off present high school facilities. Of course, Anaheim school enrollments are growing yearly. Certainly the time will come when junior high in Anaheim would cost more than $2,000,000 at present. About 68 per cent, or around $1,100,000, would come from the residents of Anaheim. The present Fremant junior high school in Anaheim is valued somewhere between $750,000 and $800,000. Another "Class A" junior high would cost in excess of $1,350,000. Thus, Anaheimers would pay the major portion of the cost of a new junior high school in the west end of the county. Right now, the heavy pressure of expanded enrolments is on the lower grades. If the voters gave a decision, one way or another, on big expenditures for the high school, it conceivably could cause the taxpayers to hesitate to expand grammar school. TV-RADIOLOGIC 'Dinky Foundation' Made at Ad Clerk By TOM HOLLYWOOD—The John Guedel "Dinky Foundation" awards for public service in radio and television broadcasting will presented this noon at a lunch at the Hollywood Advertiser Club. Guedel introduced Groucho Marx (Guedel's own show) and several others—exempt from the judging) will presented the $1000 cash award to the winner in the radio category when he talked via long distance telephone to Tallulah Bass head in New York City. NB "The Big Show," with Dee Engle much as produced was the winner. This show was adjudged for Tallulah's dramatic treatment of a CARE announcement. Nest to be introduced was Art Linkletter, who look over to present the $1000 award to the TV show carrying the best public service message during 1951. Art talked to Ken Murray, producer of the CIBC TV Ken Murray show. Murray accepted the award for the "blood donor" spot on his show last year, when he devoted more than 20 minutes of his program. Under consideration by the high school board of trustees is the very real problem of whether to bend the high school district probably to its legal capacity in order to provide two junior high schools to take the pressure off present high school facilities. Of course, Anaheim school enrollments are growing yearly. Certainly the time will come when we must build more schools. It is well that school boards give thought to it years in advance. Under the proposed plan, the junior high schools would have grades 7, 8 and 9—thus relieving the high school of its present ninth grade. (Both the junior and senior high schools would be under the administration of the high school board.) Actually, the high school may not as yet have reached its capacity—or it can expand by building classrooms. Schools get into the big money when they have to build complete facilities—power plants, auditoriums, gymnasiums, cafeterias, special vocational shops, recreation grounds, music rooms, and so on. In comparison, a few additional classrooms built into an existing school plant can take care of a relatively large number of students—and the cost is at a minimum. Enrollment at the Anaheim high school now is around 1270. The State Department of Education, in a report, believes the new high school capacity is some 1800 students. If so, that permits almost a 50 per cent increase in future enrollments.

Of course, Anaheim学校 enrollment is one of every other newspapermen in exposing income tax scandals; he now fits into efficiency of certain weapons. He columns on why the Navy lack jet fighters; capable of opposing Russian MIGs; and why he mobilization program and he had Washington seething last week. Here is another column on series.* WASHINGTON — President Truman is now faced with one friend; Defense Mobilizer Charlie Wilson—which might cause Wilson to resign or he can sit down and watch his mobilization program continue in the doldrums. If he does latter; it means not only endangering the defense of nation externally but also dangering the nation's economy internally. For American industry; now pitched to operate in huge gear is finding fewer military orders than expected; and weak spot in the economy have begun crop out. Already this aluminum shortage has turned out as aluminum surplus; while Bolgium and Luxembourg steel imported at high prices; lying on the docks rusting for lack of buyers. Charles E. Wilson; man charge of mobilization; is a patriotic; sometimes irritable; Irish man who worked his way up from bottom to head of Generals.* IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Anahaim Guzette by MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago March, 1877 There is a lotter in the postoffice for Mr. Anahaim, Los Angeles Co., California. It is from Fayetteville, Texas. The following curious fact about bees is generally known here: A great portion of the feed of bees in Southern California is the bloom of the white sage. It makes a white and agreeable honey. But when sheep have once pastured amongst the white sage the bees will have nothing to do with it. Born in Santa Ana, February 20, to the wife of Isaac Yoat, a son. The Nevada legislature has passed a bill providing that persons convicted of wite beating shall be punished by expiree, fastened to a post and bearing on their breast a placard stating the nature of the offense they have committed. It is to be hoped that this law will not be declared unconstitutional as was the law passed by the last California legislature providing for the punishment of wite-beating by the cut-o-nine-tails. 50 Years Ago March, 1897 Miss Margaret Wilson entertained the TUG at her home last Saturday evening with a spider-web party. Besides the members there were present Miss Grace Wilson, Miss Alice Robison and Mrs. Peter Weisel. After the web was unwound each member of the party found a pretty fly at the end of the string. Miss Grace Smith sang for a very appreciative audience. Later, the club orchestra rendered several beautiful relections for the benefit of those outside and those inside. The orchestra consists of a piano, violin and mandolin. When the company could stand no more they betook themselves to the dining room and partook of the dainty refreshments their young hostess had provided. At the business meeting a new member was elected. Miss Alice Robison who will be initiated when the club meets with Miss Grace Smith. 25 Years Ago March, 1897 The late Sheldon A. Littlefield, who died in Kern county February 14, left an estate valued at $2438, according to a petition filed today in superior court by George T. Littlefield of Anahaim, who asks appointment as administrator. The heirs are Frank and George Littlefield, Eva H. Boyd, of Anahaim; Lillian Eldred of Whittier; Joyce Donaldson, San Juan Bautista; and Island High of Manhattan Beach. WHAT EFFECT TELEVISION kids in the primary and early mains to be seen. Perhaps the juicy answer from its records. For one thing, TV tends to an important supplement to any the same effect on adults, but when we were small fry we had no TV, no ready-made entertainment to be had at the turn of a switch. We had to seek our adventure stories either on grandad's knees in the evening or from the writings of such old masters as Mark Twain James Penmore Cooper and Robert Louis Stevenson. And in thus living the adventures of Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer or in the imagination scouting alongside Daniel Boone or twangling a bow with Robin Hood or hunting gold in the South Seas we at the same time learned reading, spelling, improved our grammar, broadened the vocabulary learned history, geography, and many other things not to be absorbed by staring at a television set. Now, when the kid gets home from school and time begins to drag ever so slightly, he turns not to books but to the TV set. RADIOLOGIC Dinky Foundation' Awards at Ad Club Luncheon By TOM E.

It could be the showdown between the big fellows and the Pacific Coast League. Representatives of the six major league clubs which train in California and Arizona are gathering, as is customary at this time, to draw up their exhibition schedules for next spring. They don't know where they're all because they have been told that they will not be permitted to play against one another in Coast League parks after this year. They are indignant. Alarmed rather belatedly at the storm they have fetched, but still feeling pretty stubborn, the men who own and run the Coast League have decided to hold a meeting, too. They will be there handy just in case the big leaguers desire a word with them, as they most certainly will. NO ONE—MUCH LESS the baffled big leaguers—can make an intelligent prediction on what will happen. The training clubs cannot dabble with an exhibition schedule—or, at least, they say they will not—until the Coast League's edict is rescinded or modified. Clarence (Pants) Row would be happy to moveburgh Pirates from San Diego to Florida, his old grounds.

Does the latter, it means endangering the defense nation externally, but en-ing the nation's economy. American industry, now to operate in high gear, has fewer military orders expected, and weak spots economy have begun to get. Already the alumni morpology has turned to an onion surplus, while Boland Luxembourg steel, instead high prices, is lying docks rusting for lack of E. Wilson, the man in mobilization, is a patriot sometimes irritable, frishey worked his way up from town to be head of General Electric, got to know Truman during the days of the old Truman committee, and came to Washington at considerable sacrifice to help his country. Military Efficiency However, there have been three big reasons for the mobilization failure: Reason No. 1 is primarily Wilson's own. He has permitted the military to handle procurement instead of running things himself. Reason No. 2 steps from the first: consistently inefficient military procurement. When military officers, trained chiefly to fight, are placed in charge of civilian production, they nearly always hungle. Reason No. 3—Gross underestimation of the nation's productive capacity. Wilson and his advisers just did not have faith in what the nation could produce under pressure. Result of all this is that whereas, during the war, the United States was producing 94,000 airplanes a year, today it's doubtful that we can reach a goal of 15,000 planes a year by three years after Korea. Another result is that we are woefully behind Russia in airplane production, both in types of planes and quantities. If it were not for the courage and training of American pilots, we would be out of luck in the air war over Korea. Further result is that we have fallen far below our promises to Europe for war materiel. Originally we proposed supplying the marciel, Europe the manpower. But when we fall down on materiel, naturally Europe holds back on manpower. "What is the use," they argue, "of putting men in uniform when they lack modern weapons with which to fight?" Ralph Kiner Gets $75,000 In Contract SAN BERNARDINO (AP)—Ralph Kiner Pittsburgh Pirate home run slugger, has a new one-year contract for $75,000—making him the third highest paid player in the majors. Stan Musial of the St. Louis Cardinals and Ted Williams of the Boston Red Sox have better contracts than the Buc slugger who has been writing records since breaking into the majors in 1946.

He's due to take a stiff physical examination prior to being called to active duty soon as a Marine pilot. Kiner was all smiles when the Pirates announced the signing at Oakland, Calif., yesterday. Kiner previously said he wanted a two-year pact to replace the one which expired last year. But he got the raise he was after. Kiner had received special permission from General Manager Branch Rickey to negotiate directly with John Galbreath, president of the Pirates. Last year he worked out a contract with Galbreath which had a special arrangement whereby part of his $65,000 came from Galbreath and the remainder from the Bues.

I was given a copy of the contract and, after thinking it over completely, signed. I received a boost over last year." Kiner has been the only consistent attraction the Bues have had in recent years.

A baseball man who has been watching the rain come down for two or three days while his idle athletes chomp on 55 sneaks is inclined to become jumpy. THE CHICAGO CUBS and their owner-president, Phil Wrigley, are caught in the wringer. It happens that Wrigley also owns the Los Angeles Angels, the only Coast League outfit which has catered extensively to games between big league teams. At 30 per cent of the gate the Angel make good money at it, and that doubless has created a certain amount of leisure among the other coast clubs.

Wid Matthews, director of player personnel for the Cubs, says: "There's two tides to it. Maybe we've gone too far trying to make money on exhibition games.

Maybe we should give it back to the managers and coaches." Says Garry Schumacher, who will represent the Giants at tomorrow's meeting: "We haven't figured it up exactly, but this training trip will set us back around $100,000. That kind of money's got to come from somewhere."

"How can you whip a team together when you have to play your stars instead of your rookies just to get a good gate? "If club owners can't stand the cost of training they should get out of baseball.
