8 Anaheim Gazette FRIDAY, JUNE 20, 1952 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Enterprising FJC Student Beats Pathway to Customers’ Doorway Take your service to the homeowner’s door” is a long recognized principle in many businesses. George Morgan, an electronics student at Fullerton junior college, is talking a very new service to the home — television repairs. New wrinkle: he’s also taking his repair shop along with him in a reconverted transit bus. Ingeniously, Morgan has redesigned the bus, bought second Farr-Winther Plan New Local Housing Tract Plans for building 19 more quality homes in the area where they have just six homes left for sale were announced today by Farr-Winther, developers, through their exclusive Anaheim agent, J. A. Phillips. The homes are located on W. North St. between Citron and West Sts. All of the six remaining homes are of three bedrooms, with varied colored ceramic tile in bath and kitchen, complete ceiling insulation, best quality plumbing fixtures; corner freplaces, latest type silent garbage disposals and fast heating, oversized Coleman dual furnaces. Phillips also pointed out that the homes are located on large lots, with double, detached garages, with trees, lawns and shrubs already planted. The six homes are part of the second project developed by Sher- band, and equipped it with every up to the minute device used in TV repairing, plus a large stock of standard parts. Unique feature of the rolling TV repair shop is a telescopic, hydraulic 40 foot antenna rising out of the top of the bus. Morgan has the latest picture tube checking device as well as one for checking other tubes in a TV set. An added service is the careful cleaning of all sets with compressed air before they are repaired. "With the hydraulic antenna," says Morgan, "I can check the field strength of a TV signal and compare it with the signal received by the TV set in the customer's home. In this way, I can detect and adjust antenna difficulties." From the customer's viewpoint, ees these days has become of fact about his rolling shop is that 95 per cent of the repairs can be done right at the curb in front of the customer's home. A quiet, pleasant man, Morgan is married and has one child; he lives with his family in Fullerton. After a number of years in the oil drilling and production work on his own, he decided to take up television repair work. "The field has a future and offers pleasant work for one who likes to work alone," he says. Running a business with employees these days has become tedious, he says. The problems of having a payroll are not met with in television repair work. OUTING BOUND—Rodney Thvid, and Lloyd Stockwell, left in the Gazette’s latest circulation Manager Don Yozette’s carriers on an overnight Clemente. The trip is a repaign which netted 700 subsci best quality plumbing fixtures; corner freplaces, latest type silent garbage disposals and fast heating, oversized Coleman dual furnaces.

Phillips, now a resident of Anaheim, declared today that "We have found it a pleasure to build in a community where the co-operation of the city, utility firms and business concerns has been so complete." Among local firms having a part in the work are H. L. Burns Plumbing, R. W. Mattoon, landscape artist and Streech Electric.

MacARTHUR SACRAMENTO (CNS) — The taxpaying fraternity of California, according to experts now working on prospective state expenditures for the 1953-54 fiscal year, is going to be due for a few surprises when the state legislature meets in 1953 to consider the following fiscal year budget. And, according to the best estimates now available, the surprises aren't going to be very pleasant. In fact, they will be highly unpleasant to the fraternity's pocket-book if the current thinking is carried to what now appears to be an inevitable conclusion. Although no detailed estimates are available as yet, preliminary computations lead to the assumption that an increase in taxes will be needed to meet the demands of government, even if the school initiative providing an increase in the average daily attendance allotments to school districts fails of passage. The assumption is reached because of a perceptible leveling off of state income from sales tax revenue, which is the chief source of income derived to maintain the normal functions of government. FOR SOME YEARS now, the experts point out, the state has enjoyed a happy holiday from worry over income. Income has, in fact, been greater than requirements insofar as general expenditure is concerned. This fact caused the administration to lay out an extensive building program, which it has pursued since the close of World War II in an effort to bring state institutions, colleges and structures up to modern standards, as well as to provide GARDEN SUPPLIES Clear Redwood LATH 1"x1" Redwood PLANT STAKES 4 foot $220 Per Hundred Pieces Lin.

MANCHESTER TAYLOR LUMBER CO. IN ADDITION to the condition of the general fund, the state finds itself short about three billion dollars in state highway deficiencies. And again, the inevitable conclusion here is that if the people want more and better roads faster, a gas tax increase is about the only solution to the problem. Peace Officers' Picnic Scheduled Here Sunday The third annual public barbecue of the Orange County Peace Officers Assn. will be held at La Palma Park in Anaheim Sunday with a large crowd expected to attend the all-afternoon event. The barbecue dinner will be served from 12 noon until 5 p.m. and entertainment will be provided for the diners from 3 to 5 p.m., according to Police Chief Thomas Townes of Orange, chairman of publicity for the event. Music will be provided by the "Five Bits O' Rhythm," the Peace Officers' own musical group, which was organized by Bill Burchitt of the Fullerton Police Department some 10 years ago. The orchestra has played feature engagements at Palm Springs, at country clubs and for various functions throughout Southern California. Also on the entertainment program will be several pantomime skits by Betty Bolton and Carl Kisner of Fullerton, as well as other attractions for the entertainment of the public. Proceeds from the annual barbecue go into the Peace Officer's fund to help provide for widows of peace officers and to help build a training center for officers. Price of the barbecue will be $1.50 for adults and 75c for children 12 years of age.
