5 Anaheim Gazette WEDNESDAY, MAY 21, 1952 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA SA Woman Lauded For Work at Filter Center With the start of Operation Skywatch last Saturday, May 17, the four filter centers of California are now being manned by volunteer civilian workers 24 hours a day. Coinciding with the 24 hour watch, this week's (May 19) state-wide broadcast of the State Office of Civil Defense describes ceremonies honoring Mrs. Margaret Boyer, a volunteer worker at the Santa Ana Filter center, who has served in excess of 2500 hours since the outbreak of hostilities in Korea. Mayor Courtney Chandler of Santa Ana voices the appreciation of the community for the tireless efforts put forth by this mother of four daughters in serving at the filter center. Maj. Gen. Walter E. Todd, commander of the Western Air Defense Force, commends Mrs. Boyer for the unselfish role she is playing in aiding the country's air defense. On behalf of the State Office of Civil Defense, which is charged with the responsibility of recruiting civilian volunteers for both filter centers and ground observer posts, Maj. Gen. Walter M. Robertson, State Director of Civil Defense, presented Mrs. Boyer TWIRLER—One of the featured attractions of the Buena Park Home Town Day Celebration, Saturday, May 24th will be the baton twirling of Ted Oatis, 5 time winner in the nation's largest baton twirling contest. In his performance he will use one, two and three batons, and he has in some of America's top night clubs. Industrial Swing Up Fails to Materialize SACRAMENTO (CNS)—An anticipated upswing in industrial activity throughout the state for the spring season has not appeared, the state division of purchases reported today to Governor Earl Warren. The division said that average wholesale primary market prices have again declined, dropping nine tenths of a per cent below the March level and 3.2 per cent below the January, 1951 level. Price supports, according to the division, are failing to bolster some key farm commodities and a number of grains are selling near or below indicated price support levels for delivery next summer. The purchases division said that California is experiencing the greatest potato shortage in 25 years, and that rice and macaroni will be substituted in many state institutions for potatoes. The division bought $3,800,000 worth of goods during April, of which $3,300,000 represented direct purchases. TWIRLER—One of the featured attractions of the Buena Park Home Town Day Celebration, Saturday, May 24th, will be the baton twirling of Ted Oatis, 5 time winner in the nation's largest baton twirling contest. In his performance he will use one, two and three batons, and he has in some of America's top night clubs. Buena Park to Turn Back Time Saturday, Annual Home Town Celebration Bearded deputies will roam the streets of Buena Park Friday and Saturday morning searching out the characters who refuse to grow beards or dress according to the regulations. The sentence imposed will be incarceration in the specially built jail—if the deputies find their pokey in time. The big event, incidentally, is Buena Park's annual Hometown day. It seems that unknown culprits sneaked off with the large steel-cage "jail" which weighed nearly a ton last Tuesday and even the Orange county sheriff's deputies haven't been able to locate the large and brightly painted hoosegow. Otherwise the plans for Buena Park's fifth annual celebration are shaping up nicely, according to Ed Faulkner, general chairman of the event. From the Baton twirling contest at 9 a.m., to the last dance at midnight every minute of the day is crammed with events and entertainment. Ted Otis, five times national champion baton twirler himself will run the contest in the morning to pick the best twirlers in nine different classes. The activities of Kangaroo court on Grand Ave., will provide laughs until the start of the grand parade composed of five divisions which will begin promptly at 1 p.m. Bands, floats, comic entries and marching at Franklin st. and proceeding south on Grand ave. Ninth st., where it turns west Western ave. The dispersal park will be at Western with the flies going on to the park where they will be on exhibition. Four solid hours of entertainment will begin at 3 o'clock front of the grand stand at Creation park located at the corner of Hansen ave. and Eighth Professional acts will be interspersed with square dancing and music. Awards will be presented to winners in the parade during this period also. Buena Park Lions will see no one goes hungry from 3:30 o'clock during which they will be serving a delicious barbecue beef dinner at the park.

That leaves only one issue in this campaign for election of a State Senator. Which candidate can do the most for Orange county at Sacramento? Any informed person knows the answer—Sam L. Collins, speaker of the Legislature for the last 12 sessions; member of the State Board of Public Works; member of the Board of Regents, University of California; vice-chairman of the Joint Interim Committee to study highways; member of the Joint Interim Committee on Agriculture. That gives the answer clearly. Every informed person knows the advantage to Orange county of Sam Collins' high position in state government. Which candidate can do the most? The question is already answered by Sam L. Collins' record of achievement. Kiwanis Hears Blood Program Talk at Meeting Roy Glenn, a director of the Hollywood Red Cross, addressed the Kiwanis club Tuesday noon at the Elks club on the subject "The Red Cross Blood Program." Glenn cited the great need for whole blood and blood plasma not only for use in Korea but for use in hospitals here in America, and for building a stock pile to be available in case of an emergency such as an atomic attack on this country. He stated that there is only a very small fraction of blood plasma now available of the amount which would be needed were one bomb dropped on Los Angeles. The Red Cross has been designated by the government as the agency to be in charge of obtaining the needed supplies, and has been asked to greatly expand their program. They have been asked to secure a total of 2,800,000 pints of blood before June 30, 1952. The Red Cross blood bank will be in Anaheim on Friday, May 23, and he urged everyone to go and donate their blood. Glenn was introduced by Marion Pickel. Rev. Al Casebeer announced that the annual Kiwanis "Go To Church Day" will be observed by the local club on Sunday, May 25. A special service has been arranged at the White Temple, 7:00 p.m., which will be attended by Kiwanians and their families.

Lionel Van Deerlin, Democratic May Is Month To Plant Sudan Grass Pasture Sudan grass is one of our most productive summer growing annual pasture crops. The best time to plant this crop is during the month of May, said W. M. Cory, Farm Advisor, University of California. A yield of seven to eight tons per acre can be expected when irrigated where it is cut for hay. If Sudan grass is used for pasture a similar yield could be expected. Many livestock producers can reduce their feed costs by using Sudan grass for pasture or hay. Most Sudan grass is grown under irrigation either by sprinklers or by flooding. Common Sudan, sweet Sudan, and Sudan 23 are the varieties that are available for planting. Tests have shown that Sudan 23 will outyield both other varieties by about 10 to 20 percent. The feeding value is about the same for all of these varieties. Seeding is generally done at a depth of 2 to 3 inches by means of a drill and in a well prepared seed-bed. Under normal conditions 15 to 20 pounds of seed per acre are required. Delay pasturing until the stand is at least 18 to 24 inches high. The field should be subdivided with fences in order to provide rotation grazing. Poisoning from prussic acid can be avoided by using good seed (free from Johnston grass or sorghum), not grazing too closely, and avoiding the grazing of stunted plants from drought or frost injury. Since Sudan will produce a heavy yield of forage when irrigated and in a fertile soil an application of thirty to forty pounds of nitrogen per acre will pay off. Helicopters have been used to lay high voltage electric cable across difficult terrain in England. The United States paid all its public debt in 1835, but a new national debt was soon created.

Garfield died in a bed in the two-room apartment. Detective John Barrett quoted Actor John Garfield Dead of Heart Ailment in Actress’s Apartment NEW YORK, May 21 — (AP)—John Garfield, 39, stage and screen “tough guy,” died of a heart ailment today in the Gramercy Park apartment of an actress friend, Iris Whitney. She barred police from the apartment for more than a half hour, thinking they were newsmen. The actor was pronounced dead at about 7 a.m., (PDT), by Dr. Charles H. Nanimack, a private physician, who had submitted a routine telephone report to the medical examiner’s office. Garfield died in a bed in the two-room apartment. Detective John Barrett quoted Miss Whitney as saying the actor became ill while visiting her apartment last night and had decided to stay overnight. Garfield lived at the Hotel Warwick, on West 54th street. Miss Whitney told the police she had known the star “not too long.” Shop Friday Night 'Till 9 INVESTIGATE COMMUNIST CHARGES—Making an on-the spot investigation of communist charges that Allied planes dropped flares and strafed in the neutral zone near Kaeson, Korea, Col.

(US Navy photo via AP) On May 27, 1948, Mr. McFadden published an ad listing the major problems of the county as follows: 1—Critical water shortage. 2—Cost of county government increasing. 3—Sanitation system needed. 4—Highway development. This year, Orange county’s major problems are: 1—Water shortage not so critical because of heavy rainfall, which Mr. McFadden may have caused; also because of annexation to MWD, which Mr. McFadden did not cause. 2—County cost of government still increasing. 3—Sanitation system still needed, but start made after long squabble, in which Mr. McFadden took part. 4—Highway and road development. So, you see, the county’s problems are just about the way they were when Mr. McFadden found them. On May 20, 1948, Mr. McFadden’s campaign ad promised that he would bring: 1—Stronger representation. 2—Better allocation of county funds, no subservience to other districts. 3—Action on critical water problem. 4—Reduction in county government costs. 5—By-passing of urban areas by truck traffic. Well, let’s see. 1—Stronger representation. It must have been terribly weak before. 2—Better allocation of county funds. Does that include flood control funds? No subservience to other districts. Does that mean scrapping with other Supervisors? 3—Action on critical water problem. What did he do? 4—Reduction in county government costs. Have you looked at your last tax bill? 5—By-passing of urban areas by truck traffic. Well, the urban areas have been by-passed, alright, but not by trucks. The whole Third district has been by-passed. There is probably no more glaring example in county government, of promising the moon and then falling down completely. McFadden handled flood control for the Supervisors the first two years of his term. A capable Supervisor would have obtained some action for his District. But a large portion of the Third district was at the mercy of floods last winter, and faces more rulous flooding next winter.

This swinging door lets hogs get into the lot without opening gate. For controlling sheep ticks, and lice and fleas among hogs, horses,and cattle,use Standard Dip and Disinfectant. Directions on label give strength of solutions that should be used on different animals. For general sanitation around the farm, we suggest Standard Super-Germite. It's a fine disinfectant, deodorant, and antiseptic. Nine times stronger in germ-killing than carbolic acid. Call us about these products today. Fast service is the basis of our local business. Distributed by AL ROHRS ANAHEIM, CALIF. There is probably no more glaring example in county government, of promising the moon and then falling down completely. McFadden handled flood control for the Supervisors the first two years of his term. A capable Supervisor would have obtained some action for his District. But a large portion of the Third district was at the mercy of floods last winter, and faces more ruinous flooding next winter. At Buena Park, the State allocated its share of funds to relieve conditions, but the county rejects the State proposal and refuses to act. No wonder Buena Park people threaten suit. Now, Mr. McFadden tries to pass the buck to Supervisor Warner of the Second district, who took over flood control from him. The county has more than a million dollars in flood control funds, just lying there, while the Third district faces disaster because the Supervisors do not order the Loftus diversion, to protect Fullerton area, and control works along Carbon Creek which swamped Anaheim and the country west of-Stanton, and Cypress last winter. Meanwhile this million dollars plus, idle in the treasury for years, has lost nearly half its purchasing power through inflation. Good business judgment would never have allowed this huge tax fund to liquidate itself. The money could have been spent on flood control when it would buy a full dollar's worth. Then, when later projects came along, they could be financed at a much cheaper interest rate by the bond issue. While on the subject, why is that pipeline under Prado Dam, which cost between $200,000.00 and $400,000.00, also lying idle and plugged, instead of being used for its purpose, salvaging water in Prado basin? The Third District is aroused about that too. Why can't we have sound business and financial judgment in the Supervisor's office? Why can't we have action? Solution: Elect Paulkner.
