There are no real contests for U.S. senate, state senate and the 75th district assembly seat, where Senator William F. Knowland, John A. Murdy, Jr., and LeRoy Lyon won both major party nominations at the primary election. In the 22nd congressional district, comprising Orange county and northern San Diego county, Republican James B. Utt of Santa Ana who won a huge Orange county lead in the primary, in both parties, but lost the San Diego county Democratic votes, was expected to defeat Democrat Lionel Van Deerlin of Poway, San Diego county. Both candidates have conducted aggressive campaigns. Republican Assemblyman Earl W. Stanley of Newport Harbor, also came within a close margin of winning both party nominations in the 74th district, so is conceded a safe lead over Democrat Leslie San Tatenhove of Santa Ana by most observers despite attacks made upon Stanley recently. Three judgeships are at stake in tomorrow's balloting. In the Santa Ana-Orange municipal district contest, City Judge Ronald M. Crookshank of Santa Ana, who led all candidates in the primary by nearly 2500 votes, was expected to repeat his victory tomorrow, particularly since his opponent, Justice Howard Cameron of Santa Ana, was criticized sharply by the Orange county grand jury for his conduct of his office. The grand jury report was issued following the primary election. Justice Donald J. Dodge of Newport Beach justice court is engaged in a hard battle with A.K. Phelps, young Corona del Mar attorney, who threatens to end Judge Dodge’s 23-year service.

Anaheimers to Decide Fate of Proposal for Two Jr. Hi Schools While all eyes are turned on the national election tomorrow, Anaheimers will have a special election of their own to worry about. While not making the splash in newspapers, radio and TV that the general election with its many propositions has, the local election is just as important to local people. Anaheim union high school board of trustees has asked the approval of the voters on a proposal to build two junior high schools and a $2,500,000 bond issue to finance them. If the voters approve, they will also be giving indirect approval to the 6-3-3 system of education. The site for one junior high has already been determined — near Cypress. The other would be on the present site of the Fremont school, across from the present high school. It would be purchased from the elementary school board for $850,000 and the AUHS district would be obligated to build school facilities for an equal number of students as now attend Fremont for the elementary district. Voters were reminded today by District Superintendent Paul Demarcee that special election polls are to be open for the junior high school proposals. Thus, voters are asked to vote at both the general election precincts and also in the special high school precincts. Polls in the city are at the high school, Benjamin Franklin school, Broadway school, Lincoln school, and George Washington school. In the districts west of Anaheim voters will vote at Loahe, Cypress, Centralia, Savanna, Katella and Laurel schools.
