PERSONALITIES—Jim Wright and Lloyd Trapp the lads who handle the Anaheim softball leagues activities, are energetic young men.

Don't try to pack your pals in like sardines or think it's hot stuff to let 'em perch on a fender. This is kid stuff OK for a snapshot, but no snag for the driver. First off, don't get run over before you start. There is no fear in this. So, whether there is traffic or not, get in your car from the curb side.

LINNELL X FOR CONGRESS -- 28th District LINNELL FOR CONGRESS COMMITTEE Walter Longmoor, Hadd Ring, co-Chairmen Shop Instructor Ends 29-Year Career in Industry, Education Ending 20 years of teaching, William P. Corbett will retire this year as machine shop instructor at Fullerton Union High school and junior college. Corbett came to Fullerton in 1923 after a successful career in industry and has since been engaged in numerous community and industrial activities in addition to teaching. Students of Corbett have gone on to become successful engineers and workers in industry—oil and petroleum engineers, machinists, shop foremen, tool and die makers. According to Corbett's files, they are engaged in business and industry throughout California and in other states. "Since I first became a machinist," Corbett says, "opportunities and working conditions in machine shop work have become steadily better. I recall working for wages of 7½ cents an hour, for example." Apprenticing himself to a machinist at 18, he had signed an indenture to serve 12,000 hours, working a 10-hour day. During his first year, he received 7½ cents an hour; during the second, 10 cents; during the third, 12½ cents and during the fourth, 15 cents. The contrast with present conditions is vast, he points out. CORBETT WAS graduated from Brockway high school, Brockway, Pa.

Corbett formerly served in that position. He is considered one of Southern California's finest machinists, says McCormick. WHILE A TEACHER, Corbett has not confined his activities solely to teaching. He is in charge of Fullerton civil defense communications unit, having long worked with radio as a hobby. He has his own ham radio station. Lets Go For A Drive Following is second of a series presented by the Junior Chamber of Commerce and the Liberty Mutual Insurance Co. in connection with the road-E-O, teenage driver campaign. Application are still available at the office, 259 E. Center st. For company’s sake, how’s bringing along the little We’ve got plenty of drive-for her, too. Now before any further let’s get this named “driving” squared we don’t want to be a wet but that’s strictly no go; to risk breaking her an both your necks. Say, the best way to makeession on the girl friend is once her you’re an expert not a wild man, so thatnt to drive with you. Too young guys figure that to hit they have to be the kind of Awes. Too often they are a hit—but the wrong one didn’t say to invite the neighborhood. Don’t try to our pals in like sardines or hot stuff to let ’em perch under. This is kid stuff—a snapshot, but no snap driver. Off, don’t get run over you start. There is no fuchsia. So, whether there’s not, get in your car from side. It’s a mighty good that may save you from grief some day. Pulling out into trafficook back and then aheadcoming in both directions. Start out when there is any if your getting in another. Don’t rely on your rear-working a 10-hour day. During his first year, he received 7½ cents an hour; during the second, 10 cents; during the third, 12½ cents and during the fourth, 15 cents. The contrast with present conditions is vast, he points out. CORBETT WAS graduated from Brockway high school, Brockway, Pa. There his father had a grocery and feed store and young Corbett first worked for him. After becoming a journeyman, Corbett began an 18-year industrial career. During this time, he built up a solid foundation of practical experience before beginning to teach. He first worked for the Buffalo, Rochester, and Pittsburg Railroad and became foreman of the wheel department. After working for the Ridgway Dynamo and Engine company, Ridgway, Pa., he came west to Nevada. In Reno, he was employed by the Nevada Engineering and Supply company for five years, becoming foreman during his last year. Later, he worked for the Nevada, California and Oregon Railroad, in charge of the toolroom. Then, for five years, he was with Union Tool Works (now the National Supply company) as a tool and die maker. With a thorough grounding in industry, Corbett came to Fullerton Union High school and junior spot you: They like to know what you are going to do before you do it. Professional drivers (experts who make their living driving buses, trucks, taxis, etc.) say that the best way to keep out of trouble is to watch out for the tip-off" that warns you when and where an accident is brewing. To the “pros,” certain situations spell D-A-N-G-E-R as clearly as a coiled snake. For instance, you see a parked car with front wheels turned out, fumes coming from the exhaust—you can figure on that boy pulling out. Or a ball bounces out into the street—it's a cinch a kid'll pop out after it. Or the car ahead swings out to pass and then ducks back into line—you don't need a perilous situation. WHILE A TEACHER, Corbett has not confined his activities solely to teaching. He is in charge of Fullerton civil defense communications unit, having long worked with radio as a hobby. He has his own ham radio station. During the war Corbett worked summers for the Vultee Aircraft company. His help in repairing machine parts on campus has been of great service to school maintenance, according to McCormick. Retirement does not mean ceasing his numerous activities, says Corbett. "In my spare time," he explains, "I've built a small milling machine for machine instrument parts. I may do sub-contract work in my own shop." Corbett has received numerous offers from industry for supervisory work. Like any teacher retiring after long service, Corbett is hard put to recall specific students from the long parade who have become successful in their fields. Among his students, however, who are now successful, he recalls Ray Hancock, oil engineer recently with Burch Oil company, Brea; Leo Enfield, recently head inspector at Shaffer Tool Works, Brea; Charles Russell, shop superintendent at Chiksan Oil Tool Manufacturers and Lyman Race, of Race and Olmsted iDe Makers, Fullerton.
