The ramp makes it easier for the handicapped youngsters and adults, too, to attend special daily therapeutic classes and social activities that are sponsored by the Orange County Society for Crippled Children and Adults. The society's program, offered free of charge to children throughout Orange county who come on prescription from their doctors, is centered mainly at quarters provided at the Logan st. school in Santa Ana. Construction of the ramp became necessary because most of the children who come to the school are on crutches or are in wheelchairs. The ramp replaces the steps which the youngsters had difficulty mounting. Since the society, which operates mainly on funds received from Easter Seal sales, did not have money to pay for the ramp, work and materials were donated through cooperation of the Orange County Builders Association. Carpenters Union Local 1815 and Cement Finishers and Plasterers Local 489 participated.

Tax Collector, Stay Away from My $16,000' WASHINGTON (UP) — A Honorable lulu housewife says her husband ran away with another woman after winning $139,285 in the Irish Sweepstakes. And now she says, the government is trying to take away the relative pittance he left her. Mrs. Dorothy Marie Soyack told of her flight in a brief filed in the U.S. tax court here. Her account: Her husband pilfered some money from her household funds bought a ticket in the Irish Sweepstakes and won $139,285. Two days later (last May 20) he boarded a liner for the United States with another woman "who reportedly traveled with said John L. Soyack and posed as his wife." After six days at sea, the errant husband sent her $16,000 and this note—"after I pay my taxes at the end of the year I will send you the rest—and I hope you can get over me." In June and July, though he gave $70,042.50 to the other woman. Further, in California, New York and elsewhere, he "squandered or transferred to third parties in excess of $16,300." Then, her brief continues, the tax collector came around to call on Soyack in New York City with a bill for $64,698.08 back taxes. Soyack said he was broke and couldn't pay it. So now the government has slapped a claim against Mrs Soyack, demanding that she turn over the entire $16,000 the husband gave her—to help pay his tax bill. Mrs. Soyack told the tax court her husband had plenty of money to pay his taxes when he sent her the $16,000. If he isn't able to pay now, she added,"his inability... At PATTEN-BLINN ...

KILI Across from 128 W. BROADWAY — We Give S&H Anaheim’s ‘Spring Clean-Up Time’ Kicked Off by City Sanitation Service Dept. Trash trucks and clean-up crews from the Anaheim city yard today began the annual job of cleaning up the city's streets and alleys, inaugurating the first annual "Spring Clean-up Time." Anaheim residents are urged by City Engineer George Holyoke to clean up their yards and deposit the trash in the alleys of other regular trash pick-up points so city crews can clean up the town in the most expeditious fashion. This morning the trash crews began making their rounds in the southwest part of the city—south of Center st. and west of Los Angeles st. They will continue in that section all of today and tomorrow. Holyoke explained that those homes which do not have alley access should pile trash in the usual pick-up place—on curbs, in parkways, etc.—and the crews will get it either today or tomorrow. April 16 and 17, the crews will cover the southeast section, south of Center St. and east of Los Angeles St.; April 21 and 22, north-west section, north of Center St., and West of Los Angeles St.; April 23 and 24, northeast section, north of Center St. and east of Los Angeles st. The spring clean up will be preparatory to the program outlined by the Chamber of Commerce's permanent Beautification committee. The committee, headed by Attorney Claude Owens, has asked the cooperation of all civic service and fraternal clubs, women groups, and church organizations in laying plans for a continuing civic beautification campaign. A new project proposed for improving the appearance of vacant lots was endorsed by the committee. Avon Carlson, Rotary Club member and agriculture instructor at AUHS, heads the project. Organizations will select vacant lots and will be responsible for their beautification, with flowers, shrubs, etc. Later the lots will be judged and prizes will be awarded to the group whose work is judged the most artistic.
