School Board Decides to Meet Twice a Month
The Anaheim Elementary Board of Education last night adopted a resolution inaugurating a bi-monthly meeting schedule for themselves. They have been meeting every second Tuesday of the month.
The resolution provides for a second meeting on the fourth Tuesday of the month, the specific purpose of which will be to hear presentation of information concerning all facets of the Anaheim school system. This will serve to provide the board with a backlog of knowledge on the schools that will enable them to better carry out their job.
Parents and interested citizens will be welcome at the meetings to hear the presentations, most of which will be prepared and given by teachers at the various schools, under the direction of Paul Cook, superintendent of the city schools.
Topic of discussion, meeting time and place, and names of those presenting the material were not decided upon last night, but will be announced in advance.

Bridgford robbery trial in Santa Ana.
White, against whom grand theft charges were dismissed at his preliminary hearing, for insufficient evidence, testified that he was paid $200 by Irving Schulman, one of the four men on trial, to find a buyer for the beef, which the gang planned to steal from the packing plant.
White thereafter talked with Jack Goldberg, whom he said he had known for about 10 years, and Goldberg agreed to take the meat.
Following the night raid upon the Bridgford plant, when Arni Eggertson, the watchman, was overpowered and bound while 10 sides of beef, valued at $17,000 were loaded on a plant truck and hauled to the Pasadena firm's plant, White saw it delivered there, he testified.
White named Schulman, Goldberg, Goldstein, Roy Wiltsie, Charles Bocock, and James Drake as being present at the Pasadena plant, but did not mention Richard McGovern, who is among the four on trial. Schulman, Goldberg and Goldstein are the other defendants.
McGovern was linked to the case, however, in testimony yesterday from Drake, an engineer for the Bridgford plant who acted as inside man for the robbery, then turned state's evidence after he had received only about half of the $1250 he had been promised. The charge against Bocock was dropped because he is seriously ill with tuberculosis.
Wiltsie has never been captured.

Terrific Blast Wrecks Du Pont Nitro Plant
BARKSDALE (P) — Two and one half tons of explosives blew up with a mighty roar early today at the Du Pont Co. plant, leaving a death toll of possibly eight employees.
The blast completely destroyed a nitro mixing unit at the explosives plant near here. The impact shattered windows in the city of Ashland, three miles across Chequamegon bay, and folded buildings in the city of Washburn, five miles distant.
B. A. Semb plant manager, said eight members of the night shift were unaccounted for and believed dead. One body has been recovered.
Semb said the terrific blast, cause of which hasn't been determined, completely disintegrated an entire unit of the plant. The two story building, 25 by 35 feet, was built two years ago. It housed a process manufacturing "Nitramix," a by-product of TNT, used in ore mining.

The steering committee of the United Nations general assembly headed into an agenda loaded with bitter world problems today as postponement of an expected U.S. pronouncement on Korea delayed opening of the world meeting's general policy debate.
U. S. Secretary of State Dean Acheson, here for yesterday's opening of the assembly's seventh session, had been expected to launch the debate today with a demand that the 60-nation body appeal to the Communists for an armjice in Korean on UN terms.
