Woman's Body Found at Foot Of Laguna Cliff Discovery of the body of Mrs. Emma Crow, 52, Los Angeles, at the foot of a cliff at Laguna Beach late Saturday afternoon led to an investigation which failed to ascertain whether she fell or had leaked from the top of the 50-foot cliff.

Man With Bloody Face Jailed by Sheriff’s Men Sheriff’s deputies today had failed to penetrate the mystery of the man with the bloody face. The man, Jack McGready Hill, of Garden Grove, was in the county fall, but could not or would not tell how his face came to be smeared with blood, when he arrived at a Garden Grove drive-in cafe. His wife, also in jail, was equally silent. They were arrested on a charge of being drunk in a car, when a girl car-hop at Richie’s Drive-In cafe, approached the car to take their order and was startled to see that the drvier’s face was a mass of blood. Neither Hill nor his wife were able to speak coherently, so the girl called the Sheriff’s office. The couples two small children were asleep on the rear seat. Deputy sheriffs placed Hill in their patrol car, but were forced to handcuff his wife before they could get her into the car. The two children were placed in protective custody at the county juvenile home. Santa Ana County Faces Parking Zone Troubles How to maintain a 24-n city parking meter in a curb zone, where the state limits parking to 10 or 20 minutes, is a legal puzzle which ta Ana city council will seek unravel at tonight’s session. The policy adopted last month by the council to install pavement meters in the geen zones to force the parking time there, has been challenged by Engineer Hugh Neighbour. City, he said, can set up its time limit in a zone limit the state law to 10 minutes minutes. St. Michael’s Church Leads as 51 Organizations Get Votes in Drive “Buy in Anaheim” was the order of the day Friday and Saturday in the whole Anaheim area. Responding with enthusiasm to the great Gazette-Anaheim merchant sponsored “Buy in Anaheim” campaign, hoppers deposited 115,400 votes for 51 organizations in the Anaheim area which they felt contributed most to the community welfare. Even more important than the actual votes was the demonstrated fact that the community—organizations, merchants and individual citizens—are interdependent, one on the other. It reveals with a clarity never before seen here, that the merchants are interested in the welfare of the area's organizations and that the merchants' welfare is in the hands of Anaheim's residents, who make up the organizations. The tabulation follows: St. Michael’s Episcopal Church ... 35,200 Veterans of Foreign Wars ... 12,500 Grace Lutheran Church ... 10,500 North Orange County Boy Scouts ... 8,700 American Legion ... 7,500 St. Boniface Church ... 5,200 St. Pius Catholic Church of Buena Park ... 4,100 White Temple Methodist Church ... 3,100 Anaheim Business & Professional Women's Club ... 2,700 Buena Park Lions Club ... 3,000 Seventh Day Adventist Church ... 2,400 Lamitos Friends Church of Garden Grove ... 2,300 Presbyterian Church ... 1,800 Kings Club ... 1,600 Masonic Lodge ... 1,500 Northern Orange County Panhellenic Assn. ... 1,400 Anaheim Kiwanis Club ... 1,200 St. Mary’s Catholic Church of Fullerton ... 1,200 Bessiah Lutheran Church of Buena Park ... 1,000 Assembly of God Church ... 900 Don Lutheran Church ... 800 Young Ladies’ Institute ... 600 St. Boniface P.T.A. ... 600 Russia-China Talks Start In Moscow MOSCOW (P) — Russia and China began consultations today on the international situation and a number of specific Chinese-Soviet issues. Here for the talks are Chinese Premier Foreign Minister Chou En-Lai and a large staff of Chinese military and industrial experts. Provision for such consultation was laid down in the Feb. 14, 1950 Chinese-Soviet Treaty. High on the list of subjects under discussion obviously is the return to China of the Chinese Changchung Railway and the military base at Port Arthur. This was provided for in the 1950 treaty, to take place not later than the end of 1952. The premier, who is also Red China’s foreign minister, flew to Moscow yesterday from Peiping with a big delegation that included his deputy premier, Chen Yung, and a sizable group of military experts. The nature of the top-level discussions between the world's biggest Communist nations was kept secret. It was evident, however, that military questions would rank high among those taken up since Chou brought along the deputy chief of Peiping's general staff, Su Yui; his Air Force commander, Lyu Ya-low; Deputy Navy Commander Lo Shun Chu, and Deputy Kaiser Charges Attempt Made on Life at Tahoe TAHOE CITY, Calif. (UP)—Intrialist Henry J. Kaiser today used unknown saboteurs who operated with two speedboats he entered in races here of "a murderous attempt on his life." Damage to the powerboats was discovered a half hour before race time yesterday. "I'm sure it was an attempt on my life, one of the most diabolical things I've ever seen," the 69-year-old steel - aluminum-automobile magmate declared. Harry Johnson, Tahoe City constable called on the case, said the sabotage was crude and might be the work of a crank, or Lake-side residents who have complained that Kaiser's boats are too noisy. A hunt for fingerprints was started. Kaiser said he suspected the tampering was the work of "the same people who have tried to destroy everything I've tried to build." He did not elaborate. The damage was discovered by Kaiser's mechanic and driver, Max Collins, after he noticed a hack-saw blade in the bottom of the 23-foot gold-metal boat. Political Eyes Turn to South As Demos Convene By The Associated Press The presidential campaign took on a Southern accent today, with things popping in four Dixie states and the Republican nominee eyeing prospects in that Democratic stronghold. At Jackson, Mississippi Democrats were pulling three ways as they gathered for a state convention. One faction backs Democratic presidential nominee Adal-Stevenson, the other is for GOP nominee Dwight Eisenhower and the third prefers a third-party Southerner to either. Stubborn Galapagos Turtle Makes Himself at Home at Newport Beach NEWPORT BEACH (AP)—Sheridan Whiteside, Jr.—after the man who stayed for dinner—is the name given the city's newest resident. Sherry is a Galapagos Island turtle. James R. Westengard of West Los Angeles caught him while trying for an albacore to enter in the Newport Harbor Deepsea Derby. Derby officials refused to consider Sheridan as an entry. Westengard, observing that he didn't have time to take the turtle back where he came from, left him at the Port Orange sportsfishing landing. Peter Barrett, the manager, dropped Sheridan into the Pacific. But next morning he was back. Barrett telephoned the immigration service. Not interested, the federal man explained. A little desperate, as he thought of Sheridan—now about 6—living in his baitfishing tank for the rest of his life, some several hundred years. Barrett called a taxi-dermist. The latter made it plain that his technique doesn't go beyond deer. Barrett said today he may visit Latin American consulates with his problem. "If they turn me down, then I may go to the United Nations." Of course, there's always turtle soup.
