The nation-wide rash of raids by college boys on coed dormitories strikes a cheerful zany note in a mad and angry world. They show that the young of our land still have the quality of mild rebellion under the influence of spring and a full moon. Most of these mass raids have been in quest of coed bras and panties, and some of the bluenosed gentry will surely see this as a new sign of moral decadence and ask suspiciously. What do the boys want with those things anyway? The answer to this is simple and practical. Soaked in cold water and tied around a throbbing head, these garments will help many a fellow bone not fit well. These nocturnal forays into sororities prove that they are in essence nothing but a mild revolt against the boredom of the commonplace which weighs upon us all. IT MIGHT HELP care-ridden adults if they had some such harmless outlets of resentment against routine as are available on the campus. We tend to take ourselves and our troubles so seriously that our minds get knotted. Naturally, we are not suggesting that men who work in an office WASHINGTON — Connolly Manny Celler's much-herrited investigation of baseball has labored mightily brought forth a mouse. After rolling up 1643 testimony and exhibits to leased this week, and after ing all sorts of witness Ty Cobb to Ford Prick, and Pee Wee Reese of the Bodgers to Ned Garver of Louis Browns, the Congress committee takes a firm stand on about three things: 1.

This ena been in quest of coed bras and panties, and some of the bluenosed gentry will surely see this at a new sign of moral decadence and ask suspiciously. "What do the boys want with those things anyway?" The answer to this is simple and practical. Soaked in cold water and tied around a throbbing head, these garments will help many a fellow bone up for his final exams. They beat a towel all hollow. There is historical precedent for this. In the days of chivalry the knight always rode off to battle carrying a token—usually a glove—from his lady fair. The trouble with a glove is that you can't tie it around your head. If you don't believe it, try tying your wife's glove around your head the next time you go into battle—trying to figure out your income tax. This epidemic of group student raids is naturally worrisome to deans of men and local police. And, of course, it would be bad if they really got out of hand. But sometime college boys have to erupt and show they are something more than tame receptacles to be stuffed with stale knowledge. Just because they are working for sheepskins is no sign they enjoy the life of sheep. And a little larking now and then helps teach those in academic authority IT MIGHT HELP care-ridden adults if they had some such harmless outlets of resentment against routine as are available on the campus. We tend to take ourselves and our troubles so seriously that our minds get knotted. Naturally, we are not suggesting that men who work in an office or factory band together and raid the nearest YWCA, for bras and panties. Even if the girls at the YMCA took such a prank in good spirit, the wives wouldn't. They would demand that the governor call out the National Guard. Ah, no, such escapades are for the young and unfettered. But it might lighten up the international tension if world leaders and diplomats would quit making faces back and forth and join in a bit of innocent skylarking. Wouldn't it be a pleasant change if the truce negotiation in Korea would include for a marathon rocking chair match for a change instead of their present marathon name-calling. And how much would you pay to see Harry Truman and Dean Acheson meet Joe Stalin and Andrei Vishinsky in a goldfish swallowing contest to a finish in Yankee stadium? Anything to get life back into perspective! IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Anaheim Giants By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago May 1877 The great increase of population and consequential addition to the postal business in this section, has necessitated advancing the Anaheim post office from the fourth to the third class. All postmasters who receive a salary of over $1000 per year (as is the case in Anaheim) are appointed by the president, which appointment must be confirmed by the Senate, Santa Ana on Tuesday, collecting proof of her husband's recent death for submission to the insurance company in which deceased held a policy.

This enail club owner to buy and sell ers like chattels and binds arer to one team until the wants to release him for th purposes.

"Despite the tremendous p lar interest in baseball," the port continues, "publicity does not afford a complete p antee that the game will al be operated so as to serve maximum public interest. "While the public has rec nized the need for important affirmative changes—such as revision of the major le baseball map, which would h taken place long ago if c petition were baseball's o master—the men in control the game have either resisted been unable to make desira changes." However, the Brooklyn Gressman and his legislators f decide in favor of the club own by stating: "Professional base could not operate successfully profitably without some form reserve clause." On the other hand, the Congr men duck the question of emptying baseball from the a trust laws. Such exemption The great increase of population and consequential addition to the postal business in this section, has necessitated advancing the Anaheim post office from the fourth to the third class. All postmasters who receive a salary of over $1000 per year (as is the case in Anaheim) are appointed by the president, which appointment must be confirmed by the Senate, then, a sufficient bond having been given, a commission is issued for four years, at the end of which time another appointment is in order. A petition for the re-appointment of Postmaster Higgins is being circulated and there is no opposing aspirant, which shows that his re-appointment is generally desired. Mr. Goodman, who is now in San Francisco has sent down to the store of Goodman and Rimpaun an immense quantity of goods. Among which some elegant silk patterns are conspicious. Fifty huge cases, filled with dry goods, arrived in one shipment. 50 Years Ago May 1902 Peter Nicolas was over from Fullerton on Monday and made a pleasant call. He reports the country looking fine, the walnut trees never having had a better appearance and prosperity holding sway on all sides. Mrs. W. J. Smith and daughters, Misses Ruth and Grace, have moved to Long Beach where they expect to reside permanently. W. E. Anders of Hyde Park has leased the Smith ranch in Orangethorpe. Mrs. Vinson was over from Col. J. K. Tuffree of the Ranch Buena Vista is busy hauling to Fullerton for shipment to Los Angeles 3000 sacks of barley, the product of his ranch. Fritz Ruhman and Peter Syre have returned from a trip to Pomona, Redlands, Oxnard and other points of interest in Southern California. 25 Years Ago May 1927 William Tremaine, Brea flier, and Otto Shaffer, of Anaheim, escaped with a few scratches Wednesday morning when the new airplane which Tremaine was piloting turned over while landing on the Anaheim industrial tract. The plane's propeller was broken, but there was no other damage. The accident was due to the unseen condition of the field and not to any fault of the plane or the pilot. The machine which crashed yesterday was a new type being tried out. It was designed by Tremaine and Albert Thaheld, a young Austrian designer who were the builders of the "Brea Humming Bird" which crashed in an airplane meet at Brea last year killing a Long Beach man who was piloting the craft. U. S. Lemon, who has been employed in various Orange county newspapers suffered a stroke of paralysis recently and is confined at the home of his daughter in Placentia. He is unable to move or speak. However, the Brooklyn Clerkessman and his legislators find it decided in favor of the club owner by stating: "Professional base could not operate successfully without some form reserve clause." On the other hand, the Congressmen duck the question of emptying baseball from the army trust laws. Such exemption has been requested by the club owner who have viewed with alarm Justice department moves to prevent football for monopolistic radio and TV reports of the games. "If blanket immunity (from antitrust laws) were granted the Celler committee conclude 'all appeals to the courts from possible arbitrary decision by rulers of professional baseball would be foreclosed." "Club owners must act as partners as well as competitors in the Celler committee conclude... Orangized baseball has five years occupied a monopolistic position in the business of selling professional baseball exhibitions to the public and therefore has constituted substantially the only market for the services of highly salaried professional baseball players." This leaves baseball just about where it was—except that Congressman Celler has had a lot of fun bringing famous witnesses to Washington, and except that Justice department still has the power to move in on the eleven owners. NEW YORK (JP)—A pickup movie business in the second quarter of this year is reported by Twentieth Century-Fox Film Corp. WASHINGTON — Congressman Janny Celler's much-heralded investigation of baseball monopoly has labored mightily and now wrought forth a mouse. After rolling up 1643 pages of stimony and exhibits to be released this week, and after hearing all sorts of witnesses, from Cobb to Ford Frick, and from Wee Reese of the Brooklyn Bidgers to Ned Garver of the St. Hills Browns, the Congressional committee takes a firm stand, only about three things: 1. The Pacific Coast should not be denied major league baseball. 2. Players who bolt to Mexico can independent league should not be blacklisted. 3. A monopoly does exist in baseball, but Congress is not going to legislate against it. These conclusions are pretty well camouflaged in a mass of high-sounding, legalistic phrases, which the House Judiciary comtee daintily avoids any legisve action. In brief, the comtee report spotlights some glarevils in the great American art, but side-steps doing anything about them.

This enables a AND HE'S STILL HUNTING FOR HIS CINDERELY KEFALUVER DEMOCRATIC ORGANIZATION A CANDIDATE Hal Boyle NEW YORK (A) — In making out your will did you ever consider leaving anything to a bus driver? Probably not. Few people give a bus driver anything except a hard time. Every boy at home wants to be a locomotive engineer. The airplane pilot is one of the most glamorous men of the age. But who ever made a hero of the bus driver? Nobody but his wife, his kids, and his dear old mother. And yet he carries more people safely on more important missions, year in and year out, than any other figure in transportation. And he has by far the hardest task. A train rides on its own rails and switchmen give it a fast, clear track. An airplane follows a steady beam through the skies. But a bus driver threads a devious path through the most clogged traffic in history. Potential death whizzes by every moment . . . rumbling trucks . . . careless motorists . . . A cabbie trying to beat the light. And the passengers somehow still feel more secure than if they were on a train or a plane. They have a great blind faith the bus driver will deliver them intact to their destination. He almost always "dies" day after day. HOW HE DOES IT is one of the marvels of our times. Who among us has to show as much skill while under so many pressures? The miracle is that any Countv Comment By GEORGE E. HART It won't be Eisenhower. That's the word brought to Orange county a few days ago by a big Eastern manufacturer of war equipment, close to Washington. He is also close to the inside information of Washington. He talked on some subjects for publication but, for obvious reasons, he discussed other topics "off the record." For the same obvious reasons he must remain unidentified, but he is well known in Orange county. He told this writer that the men at Washington who should know are unanimous in saying that the general will not get the Republican presidential nomination. Eisenhower is riding an emotional wave that will burn itself out because it is based only on the glamor of a military title and uniform, they point out. This glamor may be considerably tarnished by disclosures that will be made when the general returns to America, and this will finish off the Eisenhower boom, it is hinted at the capital. The manufacturer himself considered this prospect logical. Taft, he said, has been trained all his life to administer government, while Eisenhower has had no such training. Nobody Eisenhower stands for has refused to say made his reputation out New Deal policy. So there it is, for is worth. The manufacturer more information than grim. This, he said upon his own first-ence with the national tory. It is, he said, the ridden administration story. While that isn't titularly, in view of fur coat, deep freeze, capers at Washington news that the pay-off high places. At least one department attempted to manufacturer's compete he refused to pay off; it was attempted contracts and ITC loss. The attempt very ceeded, the manufacturer ted.

OBLONG VIEWS FROM AN EGG-SHAPED HEAD BY WALDO HUNTER WELL, YOUR CORRESPONDENT is able to report that last night’s first annual Jefferson-Jackson Day dinner over at Santa Ana (county seat and Valhalla for physicians and used car dealers) was a resounding success. Of paramount interest was a radical departure from the standard political banquet menu. No ham and scalloped potatoes here! Southern fried chicken, Suh, served, no doubt, out of deference to the distinguished speaker of the evening, Senator Estes Kefauver, the man who at one time threatened to crowd Spade Cooley off TV. Kefauver is a tall, broad-shouldered nice-looking man with a ruddy complexion and a quick, friendly smile. He is a solid looking citizen, calm and unruffled, and seemingly a man of great patience. He is good clay, all right, but there is also a fine dignity there, and he looks entirely too honest and open-handed to be a politician. He smoked cigarettes rather heavily, burning up four of them in rapid succession while waiting for the festivities to start. He is the possessor of a very handsome profile, which reveals a strong chin jutting just enough to suggest firm resolve and strength of purpose, yet not enough to be arrogant or Rooseveltish. HE HAS A GOOD head of dark brown hair, balding slightly at the crown. When speaking his delivery is easy; he employs no abrupt gestures, and his voice is pleasantly convincing. He is also the possessor of a very handsome wife, Nancy, whose warm smile and reddish-brown hair and tasteful mode of dress captured everyone in the house. She even primped a little at the banquet table and nobody seemed to mind. Incidentally, she wears a ring with a large green stone on the third finger, right hand, and a wedding band on the little finger, left hand. All in all, they proved to be a delightful couple and from the conversation in the lobby as the affair broke up, everyone was greatly impressed. And, before I forget—Kefauver said, during the course of the evening, that he would like to be President. Here Are Two Beauty Experts Who Find Only Two Perfect Film Stars By BOB THOMAS HOLLYWOOD (P)—Don’t worry your pretty head if you don’t have a perfect figure, girls. Here are two experts who say that movie stars don’t either. Well, maybe there are two exceptions. Elizabeth Taylor and Marilyn Monroe are the exceptional gals. This verdict comes from Al and Estelle Allardale, a husband-wife team and operators of an exclusive shop patronized by Hollywood fashion seekers. They know the modes and measurements of a good many female stars. “Every star has some drawbacks, as far as figure is concerned,” reported Allardale. “The only ones who break this rule are Miss Taylor and Miss Monroe. Try as you may, you can find no structural defects in either one.” “But I do not mean that they are physically perfect. No one can be that good. Miss Taylor lacks a maturity, which is an important part of beauty. And Miss Monroe must dress very carefully, or she will look cheap.” “All of the other stars have some defect or defects, many of them glaring,” Mrs. Allardale added. Together, they enumerated some of them. Their decisions: GRETA GARBO has feet that are too long and her posture is poor. Katherine Hepburn does not have enough in the right places. Jane Russell has too much bosom. Rita Hayworth is sway-backed. Betty Grable may have beautiful legs, but she is too short-waisted. Shelley Winters much bosom and too much hips. Barbara Stanwyck is too thin all over. Bette Davis is too chunks. “But all of these stars have assets that make up for whatever they lack physically,” Allardale explained. “They have powerful personalities that make them exciting individuals.” “It’s a matter of whether beauty is in the object or the eye.” Mrs. Allardale remarked. “When beauty is lacking in the object, these women compensate with other elements. Irene Dunne and Eve Arden make up with enricness what they lack in natural beauty. Dinah Shore does it with warmth and appeal.” Allardale added that Beauty is merely a matter of fashion, anyway. “What seemed gorgeous to our ancestors now appears grotesque to us,” he commented. “Venus de Milo is supposed to be the epitome of gracerful form. Perhaps she was, in her time. But if you saw the same figure in a clothing suit today, it would be considered too fat.” In the present century, the ideal feminine form has changed twice. First, the voluptuous form, ample and well padded, was considered the most beautiful. Lillian Russell was the prime example. Then came the bathtub-gin era, when the straight figure was the vogue. Women did everything they could to hide the curves. Now we are having a return to curves. But we are not going back to the voluptuous figures of Lillian Russell's day. The trend is... His information was even more grim as it proceeded. The present group in control of the national administration, he said, has already blue-printed nationalization of all basic industries if returned to power this year. They expect to go all the way to socialism. "How about Kefauver?" he was asked. "No, not Kefauver," he said. "He would go about half way, my Washington informants tell me, and would go for nationalizing some of the industries. But he wouldn't go all the way."
