Plug Anaheim's participation in the City Beautification contest sponsored by the Associated Chambers of Commerce of Orange county was recommended by Claude Owens, chairman of the City Beautification committee, of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce. Owens' recommendation was made to the board of directors of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce at the regular monthly meeting, March 20. Owens said his committee recommended a 7-point program for city beautification operating under a permanent council of civic organizations. He suggested that women's service clubs, garden clubs and P-TA assume the leadership in such a council and take over the responsibility of the program. The Chamber of Commerce, Anaheim Planning commission and the various interested departments of the city government would work with the council. Objective of the council would be to interest the public in such a long range program of city beautification. A. J. Schutte, reporting on progress of the Flood Control committee, stated that an extensive report was sent to Congressman Phillips ten days ago. Schutte reported that the effort to get some action out of Washington is building up nicely and that every agency in the county is giving support. Schutte also said that C. A.

FJC's Roadshow Hits High School Trail Friday With a splash of color both musical and visual, Fullerton Junior college's annual "roadshow" for the high schools in the area, "Oklahoma Highlights," goes on the boards Friday, March 28. The "vest-pocket" edition of the ever-popular musical is the most ambitious touring show yet produced by the junior college, said Donald S. Jones, musical director. Its cast of over a hundred boasts a vocal chorus of 60, plus acting and singing leads and a chorus of 34 dancers. Singing and acting leads for the production were announced today. They include Gale Conner (Placentia) as "Curley," Florence Rowland (Fullerton) as Laurie, the romantic leads; and Jane Patterson (Fullerton) as Ado Annie, Mar-llynn Hatch (Tustin) as "Aunt Eller," and Bob Simon (Anaheim) as "Jud." Dance director of the show is Mrs. Josephine Murray whose modern rance ensembles recently have been delightedly accepted by ress of the Flood Control committee, stated that an extensive report was sent to Congressman Phillips ten days ago.

Griffiths, Azusa, would be going to Washington soon to follow through on our plea that the diversion channel and dam are necessary as part of the defense program. He suggested that it would be advisable to send some Anaheim and county support with Griffiths. Other committee reports, according to President Stan Whieldon, show that all Chamber of Commerce committees are functioning and are well under way on their plans for the year. Cypress Soldier In Daring Raid On Red Bunker WITH THE 7TH INFANTRY DIVISION IN KOREA — Sgt. Thomas H. Berry, of New Market, Ala., recently led a night raid on red positions in Korea that destroyed a key enemy bunker and killed 15 enemy soldiers. Berry's platoon of the 17th Infantry Regiment, underwent an intensive five-day training period in preparation for this mission after forward observers noted heavy enemy activity around the enormous bunker, nicknamed the "Golden Nugget," located in the Mundung-ni valley. Three flame throwers were added to the platoon's weapons. The platoon moved out in the evening and quickly advanced to within range of the bunker. A perimeter defense was established. Then PFC William Galinski of 83 E. Greenwich st., West Warwick, R.I., led the third squad in an assault on an entrenched knoll between the perimeter and the Nugget. The squad was hit by a hail of grenade and small arms fire. After a furious 15-minute firefight, Galinski pulled his men back to reorganize. At 1 a.m., PFC Lawson Jordan of Cypress, Calif., and PFC James E. Hopkins, 74 Kabriskie st., Jersey City, led their squads against the knob. In an hour they had cleared the reds from the knob and set up machine guns to sweep the Nugget and its surrounding fortifications. After a brief rest, the main assault began. As the platoon neared the central bunker Sergeant Berry called the flame thrower crews forward. The men ducked from one enemy communications trench to the next, avoiding enemy fire, always drawing closer to the Nugget. The flame throwers opened up.

Square dances and other dances of the Old West will be included in the "Oklahoma Highlights" show. Directing the dramatic sequences and staging the production will be Alex Omalev, FJC drama instructor. Besides retaining many of the popular musical hits of "Oklahoma," the production will also keep the essential story of the operetta. Student stage director will be Bob Pedigo (Fullerton). Opening performance will be March 28 at Orange high school with other performances scheduled for April 3 at Anaheim, April 15 at Tustin, April 23 at Valencia, and May 5 at Downey.

As the platoon neared the central bunker Sergeant Berry called the flame thrower crews forward. The men ducked from one enemy communications trench to the next, avoiding enemy fire, always drawing closer to the Nugget. The flame throwers opened up. Their 100-foot streams of fire swept the mouth of the bunker, setting it afire. The platoon moved in and began a grenade, rifle, and machine gun barrage into the entrance to the Nugget and smaller, nearby bunkers. Suddenly enemy machine guns began kicking up dirt around the attackers. A large red formation came out of the hills and attempted to move behind Berry's platoon. But he kept the flame throwers in operation until the fuel was exhausted, and then gave the order to withdraw. As the men pulled back, they left the Nugget a flaming shambles. The platoon moved quickly down the slope, racing the onrushing reds. Seeing that it would be close, Sergeant Berry radioed for an artillery and mortar barrage. Within a couple of minutes, high explosive shells surrounded the Americans as they made their way back to friendly lines. TOKYO (P)-Gen.

Legislature Works to Equalize Taxes for Out-of-State Trucks SACRAMENTO (CNS) — According to Senator Randolph Collier, "Yreka, reciprocal arrangements with other states insofar highway truckers are concerned are out-of-date. Collier, chair of the Senate Transportation committee, and also of the Interim committee on roads and highways, is introduced a measure in the legislature to make the truck taxes more equitable. The crux of the situation is that trucks registered from states other than California, Collier points out, which use California roads in instate business, obtain this usage without fair fees in comparison to trucks registered within this state to excuse them from California fees. "If we insist," he says, "that these Idaho truckers pay full fees here, the charges will be prohibitive since our fees are not pro-rated according to mileage. This would burden interstate commerce excessively, and provoke retaliation with respect to California vehicles in Idaho." By providing an alternative method, Collier points out, whereby an Idaho trucker can pay a tax in California in proportion to his California mileage, the problem can be solved.

The Senator says that recent development in interstate highway transportation demonstrate the need for legislation to correct what fast becoming "an intolerable situation." He declares that reciprocity laws, under which trucks registered in one state operate in other states without further fees, longer work equitably as far as California is concerned. In the earlier days of highway transportation, when interstate operation was infrequent, reciprocity arrangements may have been but now, trucks registered in one state operate fairly regularly neighboring states. This, Collier says, has resulted in laws designed to secure revenues from out-of-state truckers proportionate to their highway use. This means that California trucks, who pay fees in this state, are charged a porportionate charge operated in the neighbor state. Using Idaho as an example, Collier says that trucks registered in one state pay no annual fee that be used on a reciprocal basis.
