MELLEN RALPH ROULAND DON YOUNG Publisher City Editor Advertising Manager Advertising Manager Circulation Manager The school situation . . . If the past few days we have had many, many telephone calls and personal visits from folks who wanted to discuss the school situation with us. These folks, among other things, of course wanted to know . . . What reaction has the Gazette gotten from your recent story about the school situation? Well, we must report that it has been 100 per cent favorable to our viewpoint. However, we wonder if that is what we want? WE WROTE at some length on the Goalin situation in Pasadena. The least we expected on that web for someone to say that So-and-so believes Goalin was a factual and not a legal one. SO OUR STRATEGY would have been: We then would have known there are attackers who wanted to press the issue—to continue their assaults. When that happened we calmly could have said . . . Isn't it about time we got off the emotional jag, and name calling, and got down to specific issues? We then could have asked . . . Will the people who believe they have a case against the public schools come out of the shadows, name themselves, name their connections, and put their names in the news? Hal Boyle LOS ALAMOS, N. M. GP. There is no cemetery here in the birthplace of the atom bomb. That fact is a clue to the biggest defect of living in a government-built community that ideal in many ways. As one of the 12,800 workers in this heart center of America, atomic weapon research put it: "People come, people go. But nobody really feels it is home. Very few expect to die here, and I guess that is why there isn't any cemetery." Los Alamos today is perhaps the most unusual community in the nation. When it was conceived in 1943 it was thought it would never grow beyond a population of 700. Now it is a small city of nearly 13,000 scientists and technicians sprawling over several mesas in an isolated, 86,000-acre, closely guarded reservation in the Jemez mountains of northern New Mexico co. It is still growing rapidly, and work is under way on a new $120,000,000 laboratory. The chief industry of this strange city is to develop better instruments for widespread atomic death, yet by most yard-sticks of sociology it is a dream city. There are no slums here. There is no unemployment. The city has a fine school system. It has wonderful recreation facilities, including a baseball field, swimming pool, ice skating rink, ski lift, and its own small symphony orchestra. Unlike most other cities throughout the land, it has no major Well, we must report that it has been 100 per cent favorable to our viewpoint. However, we wonder if that is what we want? WE WROTE at some length on the Goalin situation in Passadena. The least we expected on that will for someone to say that Soand so believes Goalin was a fictional red, or a New York college professor would say Goalin was a member of the community party, or a former community might be quoted as saying he and Goalin were birds of a feather. Of course, we then could have attacked the attackers, and raised cain with the issue. That we probably would hesitate to do, how- IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Aushelm Gasette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago June 1877 A valuable cow belonging to Colon W. S. Davis died yesterday of milk fever. An ice cream and strawberry festival and fair, for the benefit of the sabbath school of the Presbyterian church, is to be given next Thursday. The entertainment will consist of songs, tableaux, recitations and other exercises. Colton is becoming the great resort for capitalists who wish to see the country. Not a week passes but millionaires come here and note the prospects of this promising valley—Colton semi-tropic. The Brass Band will plenic at the Santiago Canyon next Sunday and we are informed that the more towns people that accompany them the better will they be pleased. 50 Years Ago June 1902 Santa Ana's school census, which was ordered retaken on account of unsatisfactory returns, has been finished and shows an increase of 143 over the first census, and a gain of 50 over the last year. The present census shows there are 1474 children of school age in that city. Holt Bros. 50-horse power traction engine pulled itself through town on Saturday afternoon, creating consternation among the fiery unfamed broncos. It stopped for repairs. The engine had been at work on the San Joaquin where it plowed 4500 acres of land in 100 days. It dragged 60 plows. While crossing the Santa Ana river it became stalled in the sand, and ties had to be taken from the roadside and a temporary track made for it to get out of the sand. Its wheels are 40 inches wide, it weighs 20 tons and it cost $5000. It dragged with it a tank of oil to feed its furnaces. It was on its way to Los Angeles where it will THERE ARE MORE than 80 social and professional organizations. There are 14 organized church groups. The happy shouts of children and the barking of dogs ring across the neat well-tended lawns all day long. "We are famous for babies, dogs and bombs—in that order," one atomic energy commission employee said. "This is a wonderful place to raise children, and we have one of the highest birth rates in the country. "About 15 per cent of the population is under five years of age. The average age here is 25 — eight years younger than the national average, which is 53. There are only about 410 persons here over 60." Why, then, isn't Los Alamos a perfect place to live? It is because the families here feel they dwell in a guarded fishbowl. "No, not any more," one employee said. "The people have learned to live with secrecy, and it is no longer the shadow over them that it was a few years ago. "As a matter of fact, those who live here now are about equally divided over whether they like or dislike it. There is a shortage of housing, and families have to wait their turn to move into the district which has the best homes." The district is known locally as "slob hill" by those who don't live there. A major source of discontent is The Brass Band will picnic at the Santiago Canyon next Sunday and we are informed that the more towns people that accompany them the better will they be pleased. The town of Banning is a new settlement lately started in the neighborhood of San Gorgonio. Grass is two feet high on Warner’s ranch in San Diego county. A letter was received from Adolpe Rimpau last night. He now considers that he has passed the worst of the road with his sheep and is out of danger. The loss so far has been only about 50 head. A farmer living near Coyote Creek keeps four horses, one colt, two cows and 20 hogs on an acre and a quarter of alfalfa. He says he can easily raise eight crops of hay each year from the same field. The Southern Pacific railroad fares between San Francisco and Yuma are officially published; are for the present: Unlimited first-class $30; limited, first-class $42; limited, third-class $32. "Unlimited," allows stop-over privileges at pleasure; upon notifying conductor: "limited" means a continuous through trip. The fare from Los Angeles to Yuma is $32. Plans for impressive ceremonies to be held at the formal opening of Anaheim's $35,000 Greek theater were laid at a meeting in the council chambers of the city hall Monday. Mayor L. E. Miller called the meeting and presided. The theater is now rapidly nearing completion in the Anaheim city park and the date for the ceramics was set as the evening of July 15 by which time it is expected that construction work will be entirely completed. Ellis Rhodes, well known tenor and teacher with the Orange county school of Fine Arts, this city, will have charge of arrangements for the community celebration. Miss Anna Ryan and Mrs. Kennedy were the hostesses at a dinner party in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jos Carroll, who leave in July for Seattle to reside. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Backs and Miss Winifred Melrose who leave next week for a tour of Europe. Others of the party included Mr. and Mrs. F. A. Youngbluth, Mr. and Mrs. William Dolan, Mrs. C. H. Schlecher and Miss Beryle Kennedy. As a matter of fact, those who live here now are about equally divided over whether they like or dislike it. There is a shortage of housing, and families have to wait their turn to move into the district which has the best homes." The district is known locally as "slob hill" by those who don't live there. A major source of discontent is that nobody here can own his own home in Los Alamos. He can only rent it from the government. Many workers leave because of this. They want to settle down in a place where they can own their own house. "The scientific people come here for a few years to get prestige," one man summed it up. "Then they leave to take better jobs in industry or university teaching. They seem to prefer teaching." AN AMERICAN doesn't want to die in a town where he can't ever buy a homesite. Los Alamos will be here for a long, long time. It is vital to the nation. But if will never be a real city until the people who work here have a feeling of ownership and community interest — until they can buy a home and a graveyard plot. Until this happens—if it ever does—Los Alamos will remain only a government collection of brilliant intellectuals in transit, their minds here, their hearts elsewhere. NEW YORK UP—Sugar Ray Robinson remains a solid 10 to 13 favorite to win his third boxing crown tonight in the once-postponed light heavyweight title bout with champion Joey Maxim.

HART Credit the Izaak Walton League of Orange county with delivering a hard blow, of nation wide force, against the Central Arizona project. The weapon used was the Izaak Walton League of America, widely known and influential organization dedicated to conservation of wildlife, also conservation of natural resources, including soil and water. At its national convention in Tulsa, Okla., last month, the Izaak Walton League passed a resolution condemning the Central Arizona project as economically wasteful and an unjustified financial burden upon all sections of the country for the benefit of a few users in Arizona. That resolution was drafted by the Orange county delegation. It received a valuable assist from Prof. Raymond V. Moley, the chief convention speaker, who started out with Roosevelt and the New Deal but couldn't stomach either and soon quit the administration. The Orange county lkes decided not to present their resolution themselves, feeling that the convention would think it was merely a hassle between California and Arizona over water rights. As a matter of fact, the local likes, true to their organization's principles, did not promote the resolution on the basis of water rights at all, but purely on con- R-F Wins 9-1 Over Real Gold Last night in an Industrial league doubleheader at LaPalma park, Robertshaw Falton trounced Real Gold 9-1, and in the second game Northrop nipped Chick-san in the last inning 10-9 in a practice game. Behind the four hit pitching of Barney Swearingen, Robertshaw, beat Real Gold, as Cliff Horton led the hitting parade for Robertshaw with two home runs and a single in three trips to the plate. Horton also scored four times. Robertshaw scored runs in the first, third, sixth and seventh innings. Horton home runs accounted for all runs in the first and third innings as he drove across Bill Steinborn who had singled in the first and Ray Huston who also singled in the third. In the sixth inning George Viera and Lou Spinosa doubled and singled respectively to drive across Horton, Swearingen, and Vieira with runs. Robertshaw's last two runs came on Horton's third hit of the evening and a walk to Ray Huston. Real Gold's lone run of the game came in the first inning on Ralph Anderson's lead off single, a pass sending him to second, stealing third and scoring on a fly ball. IN THE SECOND game, a practice game to fill a bye, Northrop scored two runs in the bottom of the seventh to tie and win from Chick-san 10-9. Northrop tallied runs in the fourth, sixth, and seventh innings. Bernier-Pedeen Duel Sought Hollywood By The Associated Press Los Angeles and Hawaii fans are looking forward to what they hope will be of a duel between Carlos the Stars' speedy base steer rifle-armed Les Peden, the catcher. Left fielder Bernier le Pacific Coast League bases with 36. Peden is not his ability to pick off thieves. Bernier didn't get or take—a chance as Los Angeles beat the league leaders, night. Bernier stole three agents Angels in their first series Peden wasn't the catcher; had his worst week of the against San Diego in just ended. He was tagged three times. But he also three to his total. Peden be hoping Carlos feels free week, but the fans are. Those who said that O Padres started slipping the keep right on going now other talking point.

The Orange county Ikes decided not to present their resolution themselves, feeling that the convention would think it was merely a hassle between California and Arizona over water rights. As a matter of fact, the local Ikes, true to their organization’s principles, did not promote the resolution on the basis of water rights at all, but purely on conservation grounds—that the project would be wasteful of natural resources, economically unsound and unfairly saddling other states with fantastic costs for the benefit of a few users in Arizona. They got the Colorado delegation to present the resolution to the resolutions committee. There appeared to be no great enthusiasm in the committee over the resolution, some evidently regarding it as just a water fight between two states. Then Prof. Moley made his speech. He was not aware of the pending resolution but his remarks could not have been better timed or better aimed. He tore into the Central Arizona project and left it in shreds. And he hit it from exactly the same angle that the Oranga county resolution hit—its unsoundness, unfairness and waste. Following Moley’s speech, the resolution came out of committee like a shot and boomed through the convention with unanimous approval. A Colorado resolution, of course. Moley, incidentally, said that cost estimates for the Central Arizona project as announced by the Department of the Interior, fantastic as they are, still are far below the true costs. Arizona’s share would be infinitesimal, compared to the share of other states. California, for example, would have to pay $78,000,000 (Department of Interior estimate) for allowing Arizona to grab her water rights on the Colorado. It is worth nothing that the Izaak Walton League of California, still consistent, is looking askance at engineering proposals to develop the Feather River project at the expense of the entire state, for the benefit of Southwest. IN THE SECOND game, a practice game to fill a bye, Northrop scored two runs in the bottom of the seventh to tie and win from Chicksan 10-9. Northrop tallied runs in the fourth, sixth, and seventh innings. Seven of the Northrop runs came in the fourth inning on five Outlaw hits and one Chicksan error. Triples by Jim Hein and R. D. Criss, a double by Ray Searles and a single by Jim Hughes accounted for all the Northrop runs. In the sixth after Joe Witzell had been walked and had stolen second Jim Hughes singled to center field to drive Witzell across with the eighth Outlaw run. In the bottom of the seventh Criss walked, Bill Pierce walked, and “Lefty” Joe Witzell singled sharply through the box to drive across Crisp with the tieing and Pierce with the winning runs. Jim Hein and D. L. Bucky led Northrop in hitting with two hits each. For the hapless Chicksan team they scored two runs in the first, four in the second, two more in the fourth and one in the fifth imining. Jack Ruther led Chicksan in hitting with three for five, Chuck Sharp and Art Edwards each had two for four. BP Lynx to Play Series with Fast Kansas City Team The Buena Park Lynx dropped a tough one to Monrovia last night: 1 to 0, at BP. Both teams got three hits, but a Lynx error helped the Monrovia cause along. Tonight’the Lynx take on the fast Kansas City Dons, who are on the West Coast on a barn-storming tour. The game will be played at the BP ball park, Eighth and Hanson, Buena Park, 8:30. Saturday night, the Lynx again will meet the Kansas Citians at Amerige park, Fullerton, at 8:30. In the game last night, Monrovia scored in the fourth inning on week, but the fans are. Those who said that oPadres started slipping them keep right on going now other talking point.

ANAHEIM JUNIORS BEAT SANTA ANA Bob Loustau's booming bat drove in four runs and helped the Anaheim Juniors to eke out an 8-7 win over Santa Ana here yesterday in a Valley League tilt. The big first baseman did all the damage with a pair of two-run singles; but had to share batting honors with teammate Bill French who lined a double to left which drove in one tally in his only official trip and he scored two more himself. Another highlight of the fray was the defensive work of Alan Story at second base.

Left fielder Bernier leads the Pacific Coast League in stolen bases with 36. Peden is noted for his ability to pick off would-be thieves. Bernier didn't get-or wouldn't take—a chance as Los Angeles beat the league leaders, 7-1, last night. Bernier stole three against the Angels in their first series, but Peden wasn't the catcher. Bernier had his worst week of the season against San Diego in the series last ended. He was tagged out three times. But he also added three to his total. Peden may not be hoping Carlos feels frisky this week, but the fans are. Those who said that once the Padres started slipping they would keep right on going now have another talking point. The Padres, top leaders for two months until Hollywood trounced them six out seven, were shut out in their series opener against Seattle, 4.0. Veteran Al Widmar turned in a beat four-hit performance.

Tennis Notes Anaheim's junior boys' tennis team swings into action tomorrow evening at six o'clock in the opening round of the Inter-City Junior Tennis league for Southern California when they entertain the Pomona team on the local City park courts. With a complete roster of 10 teams scheduled to play, matches will run for nine weeks with the last round scheduled for the last week in August. The girls junior league team with a much smaller entry of four teams will play until Aug. 6 in a double round. Each team will field three singles and two doubles entries, with matches starting at 6 p.m. in order to accommodate the players who for the most part are high school netters holding down summer jobs.

Wes Santee Is The Runner to Beat Europeans LOS ANGELES, (R) — The United States has produced some wonderful track athletes but ever since Paavo Nurmi of the golden twenties, the business of running farther and faster has been monopolized by foreigners. That's why American Olympic people are so excited about Wes Santee of Kansas. No one is so rash as to think he might beat Emil Zalopek of Czechoslovakia or Gason Reiff of Belgium in the Olympic games this summer, but everyone expects him to make a showing. Santee will probably concentrate on the 5,000 meters, the equivalent to the three-mile. Ralph Hill got second in the 5,000 in the 1932 games and that's our high water mark in recent years. Brutus Hamilton, the head Olympic track coach, sounds a note of caution, however. "He's a great runner now, but two years from now he will be tremendous," says Hamilton. "He's still a bit young." Santee has just turned 20. He's a junior at Kansas and with his crew haircut and angular face he's about as boyish looking an athlete as you can find. He is six feet one and weighs 145. Santee won the 5,000 meters in the NCAA championships and the 1,500 in the AAU. It was not so much his double victory, nor his fast times, but the powerful, impressive way he did it. In both cases he won with 20 or more yards to spare, going strong, looking over his shoulder. His time in the 5,000 of 14:36.3 would have been good enough for second in the event at the London games, and his 3:45.3 would have won the 1948 1,500. FEMININE TENNIS players interested in qualifying for the Southern California Sectional National-Public parks play-offs to be held at Santa Monica on July 12, 13 and July 19, 20, were invited by the Anaheim Recreation department today to enter their names with Mrs. Bob Williams at the City park tennis courts. Entries in the men's singles, men's doubles, and mixed doubles were determined in the recent Anaheim closed tennis championships, but in the absence of any women's events at that time, it will be necessary now to play-off for representation in these two events. Winners of the matches at Santa Monica will be sent by the National Public Parks association to the national finals in St. Louis, early in August. National finals in the junior events will be held in Long Beach, with a full team from Anaheim expected to represent the local recreation department. Bob Carlson, president of the Anaheim Tennis club and winner of the Anaheim tournament, will play both singles and mixed doubles in the Southern California event, teaming with Mrs. Bob Williams of the Recreation department in the mixed matches. Entries in both women's singles and doubles will be welcomed. There is no entry fee on the local level, so that anyone wishing to enter may feel free to do so. Entries must be in the hands of Mrs. Williams by June 30, with play-offs starting on July 1, as entries in Santa Monica close on July 7.

When I was a kid I would go out and run for the sake of running." His father's ranch near Ashland, Kansas, has 4,000 acres, so he had ample space. "Glen Cunningham (America's distance star of the '1930's) came from near where I live. Somehow or other I got started with the idea of beating all his records. First I did it in high school, and then I managed to break the ones that were still left at the university. So far I have broken all he set at my same age." He admires his coach, Bill Easton. "He's best," says Wes. Says Easton: "I don't really know how fast he is. He's apt to surprise somebody in the Olympics." People who think tall distance runners should have space-eating strides will be surprised when they see Santee. It almost seems to mince along. Actually his stride is longer than it looks, and his style resembles that of the Europeans who now dominate the distance picture—rather short strides, with the weight of the body well forward. In his closing sprint—which is devastating—the lengthens out, but he still looks fresh and powerful, which, indeed, he is.
