Anaheim Gazette THURSDAY, AUGUST 28, 1952 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA OBLONG VIEWS (From an Egg-Shaped Head) BY WALDO HUNTER We denizens of the modern world like nothing better than to delve into the past, and old books are invariably fascinating. I am fortunate to have at hand an ancient medical tome called: "Dr. Gunn's New Family Physician or, Home Book of Health" It was tossed up on the front stoop a few evenings ago by a friend who said I looked a "little peaked." It is a handy and compact little thing, a graphic example of smart editing. It contains only 1,005 pages. It was printed in 1859. I extract from it a few paragraphs advising us on ways and means to alleviate an aliment commonly called Stomach Ache: "Symptoms: Burning and acute pain in the bowels, which shoots round the navel; usually obstinate costiveness; more or less fever and sometimes vomiting. "Causes: The disease may be caused by obstinate long-continued costiveness, by wounds and injuries to the intestines, by severe colic, by eating unripe fruit, and by exposure of the lower extremities and abdomen to cold. "Treatment: Soak the feet in warm lye-water—apply warm fomentations over the abdomen, flannel cloths dipped in hot lye water—and give a large table-spoonful of cold-pressed Castor Oil, with half as much Olive Oil, and half a teaspoonful of Spirits of Turpentine, and repeat it every two hours till an operation on the bowels is effected." (Editor's note: Has the patient effected some sort of a will?) "After the second or third dose is taken, it should be aided by an injection of the same with a little warm Milk and Molasses, and a teaspoonful of Salt dissolved in it. (Editor's note: Extreme caution should always be taken to make sure that the patient does not recover.)" “If these means, after repeated trials, do not succeed, give more powerful injections; an ounce of Epsom Salts, an ounce of Glycerine and a pint of hot Water; give the whole warm, and have it retained a while by external pressure. (Editor's note: Meanwhile, everybody stand clear.)" “In severe cases, it is a good treatment to apply to the abdomen hot fomentations, a hot water bottle, or hot fomentations with a teaspoonful of turpentine, to be changed and repeated often.” “If the costiveness cannot be overcome, put the patient in a warm bath for half-an-hour. “Occasionally leave off the hot fomentations and apply a large Mustard plaster over the abdomen.” (Editor's note: Why not just knock him in the head and be done with it?) Stanton Lions, Chamber to Hear Willis Warner The Stanton Lions and chamber of commerce will have a joint meeting Tuesday night to hear Willis Warner, chairman of the county board of supervisors, who will speak on water districts. All residents are cordially invited. The meet will start with a reception at the Stanton Lions Community clubhouse on Chestnut st., with a reception at 7:30 p.m. Mrs. Charles Rube, hostess for the Lady Lions, asks that reservations be made early. Incorporation papers for the chamber were filed at state capitol last Tuesday, according to C. C. Dubbs, president of the chamber. After the incorporation is completed by William Poe, Jr., attorney from Los Alamitos, the chamber will hold a special election on sewers and formation of a water district. Annual VFW Picnic Held Last Sunday The second district county council of VFW annual picnic held Sunday in Sigler park. Westminster, is reported by Commander Archie Burgess to have been a successful affair with 364 barbequed steaks served members of posts and auxiliaries. Past Commander Eddie Bell of Long Beach was chairman of the event, assisted by Burgess, who obtained the steaks from Earl Davidson of Garden Grove blvd., and Frank Moreno, Anaheim, who was chef, assisted by E. "Skip" Goodman, Cypress, and Homer Edwards, past commander, of 1570 post of Santa Ana and senior vice commander of second district. Keith Hetherington, television IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago August 1877 Mr. Chilson exhibited a watch on Monday, the case of which was made of bullion which was taken from the Chilson mine in Arizona. It was handsomely engraved and presented a fine appearance. The horizon was clouded with dust all day yesterday, and there was every evidence of a desert wind. Among the departures for the Laguna seaside yesterday were Mr. Melrose of the Gazette and his family. The blacksmith and carpenters at Garden Grove are kept busily employed manufacturing windmills. Several new residences have been erected during the past month in that vicinity. At Kroeger's hall tonight—One night only — Sylvester Bleeker, manager; Original and renowned "Gen. Tom Thumb and wife," and the infinitesimal "Miss Winnie Warren and Major Newell" will appear in a variety of performances consisting of songs, dances, comic acts, replete with sentiment, fun and frolic. At each performance the ladies will wear several new and elegant costumes, magnificent diamonds, etc. Admission only 50 cents. The largest ship ever built on the Pacific coast is now at Wilmington. The fisherman from the Landing disposed of six hundred pounds of fresh fish in town yesterday. A fan was found at Tivoli Gardens on Wednesday. The owner 50 Years Ago August 1902 The result of Tuesday's primaries leaves little doubt about the complexion of the delegation from Orange county to the state convention. That the eleven delegates will go pledged to Henry T. Gage admits of no doubt. In this (the third) supervisorial district 26 Gage delegates were elected to 6 anti-Gage. The ticket: Superior Judge Z. B. West of Santa Ana; Treasurer W. G. Potter of Buena Park; Clerk W. A. Beckett of Santa Ana; Auditor J. H. Hall of Santa Ana; Sheriff J. C. Nichols of Santa Ana; Tax Collector A. Y.

CINCINNATI (UP)—The B. F. Goodrich Co., last holdout of the "Big Four" rubber companies, last night reached an agreement with the CIO United Rubber Workers which would end its 11-day strike. Already in the fold were Firestone, Goodyear and United States Rubber. So were General Rubber and Seiberling. More than 16,000 URW workers had walked off their jobs in nine Goodrich plants throughout the United States. They had already agreed on a 10-cent hourly wage increase, but could not agree, until late last night, on fringe benefits. Li S. Buckmaster, president of the powerful URW, said that before the strike can be called off it least five of the nine striking locals representing a majority of the members involved must approve the settlement. The pact, signed after 12 weeks of negotiations here, calls for the 10-cent increase and a full union shop. Buckmaster said more than 112,000 rubber workers now have won the 10-cent increase since Aug. 9, 1952. Their hourly wage average is now $1.95, he reported.

State Fair Opens; Family of 2 SACRAMENTO (AP) — The big gates were opened today for California's 1952 State Fair. It will continue for 11 golden days and sparkling nights. Secretary-Manager E. P.

Warren and Mr. and Mrs. William M. Hyler of Westwood in Lassen county. The Tylers were invited to be opening day guests because this year's fair theme is The Family—and it was the largest family of native Californians the fair folks could find. The Tylers have 18 children, the oldest 34 and the youngest 9. All but four arrived here last night, including Lawrence P. Tyler, 20, just back from serving a year with the Marines in Korea. Neither Papa or Mom Tyler had ever been to a State Fair before. Or any other kind of a fair. And only two of the dozen and had ever been to the State. She was asked if the fruits, vegetables or flowers be of most interest to her the opening ceremonies. "I'm interested in chick the vivacious, little lady laughed." "Babies." She explained: "I just know what a fair's going like." She said the young dren were just crazy to me governor, however.

Sunken Mountain, Strange Fish Found In Ocean Sunken Mountain, Strange Fish Found in Ocean SAN DIEGO UP—A 12,000-foot high under-water mountain and fish living in water with little or no oxygen have been discovered by scientists on the research ship Horizon. The discoveries were reported here yesterday when the University of California's Scripps institution of oceanography ship Horizon arrived from a three-month, 18,000-mile exploration of the Pacific ocean off Central and South America. Warren S. Wooster, Scripps oceanographer and leader of the expedition, said the fish were collected in an area 125 miles west of the Gulf of Nicoya off Punta arenas, Costa Rica. He said scientists previously had not known that fish could live in ocean depths where only two per cent of saturation oxygen exists. "But we have specimens to prove they do," he added. The seamount term given to isolated mountains rising from the ocean's floor was discovered May 23 about 1200 miles due west of Acapulco, Mex. It had a height of 12,192 feet from the bottom of the sea, was 10 miles across at the widest point at the base, and is about 1500 feet below the water's surface. In addition to making detailed studies of the ocean currents, the scientists collected many specimens of fish and other sea life. They will be studied by Scripps scientists at the institution. Other ships participating in the expedition included vessels of the U.S. navy electronics laboratory, Inter-American tropical tuna commission and U.S. fish and wildlife service.
