Supers OK Dental Clinic for Kids County supervisors yesterday approved proposal for establishment of a new dental clinic for children at Orange county hospital. The clinic would have a staff of 61, supplied by the Orange county Dental society. Complete equipment for the clinic had been purchased by the county some weeks ago, but action toward its establishment was delayed until the dental society approved the proposal. The society voted its o.k. of the program early this week and announced itself as ready to start supplying the professional services. The dental society will outline its own rules and regulations for operation of the clinic, subject to approval by the hospital's medical board, Director Ronald Powell and the board of supervisors. The new clinic will offer the first dental service that has been supplied through a clinic to hospital inmates. Wind Sends Fire Leaping into Orange County Two hundred firefighters were battling a brush fire that spread into Orange county from San Diego county yesterday and has already burned over 1000 acres of watershed in this county. The blaze, which originated on the Camp Pendleton Marine Corps reserve, below the county border two days ago, had burned between 5000 and 6000 acres in that county before it crossed the line. A control line had been established late yesterday and State Forest Ranger Joe Scherman of Orange, said he expected to bring the fire under control when it reached that point this morning. Increasing winds last night, however, sent the fire leaping across the control point and it had spread another mile this afternoon, reaching within three miles of Ortega highway. The fire was forcing up La Paz canyon, about 10 miles east of San Juan Capistrano. Wind conditions had changed today and were more favorable to the fire fighters, Scherman said.

LOS ANGELES (F)—Vice President-elect Richard Nixon and his wife left by plane last night to rejoin their children in Washington, D.C. Election on BP Incorporation May be Set Soon Date of the election on Buena Park's proposed incorporation as a city probably will be set when the county supervisors meet Nov. 18 at 2 p.m. to decide the boundaries of the proposed city. Hearing of the protests against the inclusion of some outlying farm lands took place before the supervisors yesterday afternoon, drawing such a large crowd that the hearing was moved from the court house. While there was some discussion of the proposal to incorporate, the crowd was informed that the hearing was merely to deal with boundary questions and not with the merits of incorporation. Paul Kroesen, Buena Park publisher and Chamber of Commerce president, told the board that proponents of incorporation had only a friendly and cooperative attitude toward objectors and were willing to exclude property that would not benefit from the incorporation. Acreage on the southwest side of Buena Park, along Orange thorpe blvd., west of Miller rd., was particularly involved in the request for the exclusion. Proponents of the incorporation move are hopeful that the election can be held by the middle of January so that if the proposal carries the new city can be on the tax roles for the ensuing fiscal year.
