Flood-Distressed Cities to Seek Aid from Legislature if Cut Upheld SACRAMENTO (CNS) — The assembly ways and means committee has voted to cut out a $1,000,000 flood damage contingency fund from the 1953-54 state budget. Elimination of the budget item would mean that local authorities in flood disaster areas seeking financial aid from the state would be forced to go to the state legislature for emergency appropriations, it was pointed out to members of the committee. The action was taken on recommendation of A. Alan Post, legislative auditor, who said that appropriating large sums in advance to cover contingencies is not sound fiscal policy. Post estimated that $833,500 of the amount will be expended June 30. He noted the budget under consideration contains matching provision. Gerald H. Jones assistant engineer, testified the state spent $9,000,000 in flood aid since beginning such gram. Since 1939, when the acting policy was adopted, $3,750 has been expended, he said. Assemblyman Frank P. Del Norte, Humboldt and doeino counties, voted to removing the fund from the get. Only recently a state emergency was declared in holdt, resulting from flood age.

Scott, pianist, famed for his concert humor, will appear at the Anaheim union high school Feb. 20 under the sponsorship of the Anaheim Y’s Men. Considered an "outstanding authority on swing" by music magazine Metronome, Scott’s piano humor ranges from impressions of Jazz Man Teddy Wilson to the classics of Chopin. Scott, who has been described as the "Will Rogers of the Piano," does his own writing and arranging, including pantomime skits. The concert, which will begin at 8 p.m., is to be presented for the benefit of the YMCA Youth Fund, in the school auditorium. After making his debut as a concert humorist at the Town Hall in New York, Scott has portrayed his style, such as playing the palo while wearing mittens, in Carnegie hall, the Rainbow room in New York, and concert stages in Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago. Prior to the concert, Scott will perform for the high school students at an assembly during the day. Tickets for the event, which will be sold by members of the Y clubs, are priced at 75 cents for students, $1.25 for general admission, and $1.75 for reserved seats. Morris Realty company, 111 N.

Deaconess: To Speak at White Temple "Sister" Lena Meussel, 21-year-old German deaconess of the Methodist church in Nuremburg, will be the speaker at the regular 7 o’clock Sunday night service at White Temple Methodist church, telling the firsthand story of the church in Germany in these days of reconstruction and the threat of communism. Miss Muessel is currently studying in the United States, and is residing at the Spanish American institute, a home for Mexican boys maintained at Gardena by the Methodist churches of this conference. The workcamp team of a dozen selected Methodist youth from Southern California who visited Germany last summer met her at Nuremburg where they were working on the reconstruction of the deaconess home there, destroyed by allied bombs during the war. Her vibrant personality and effective work among the German people at once endeared her to the group, and they were able to make financial arrangements here since their return to bring her to this country to study. She is now in wide demand as a speaker before Christian youth groups, for she has a personal story to tell of her role in helping to restore hope to a broken people.

Wayward Whale Bids LA Harbor Fond Farewell LOS ANGELES, Jan. 31 (AP) — Willie, the wayward whale, finally found his way out of Los Angeles harbor Saturday and frankly, no one was sorry to see him go. For three days the 60-ton monster has been a playful pest, scanning the wits out of peaceable seafaring men by surfacing with a grand splash uncomfortably close to their boats. The first day he appeared coast guard, police and private boats teamed up and tried to herd Willie out through the breakwater entrance, which he apparently entered in the mistaken belief it was one of those Baja California coves where California gray whales go to mate every winter. But when pursuers came close, Willie just flipped up his tail and dived. Nobody was pushing him around. All hands finally gave up the chase in disgust. Saturday afternoon some seamen reported seeing Willie, still cutting up, pop out of the water only a few yards from a ship coming through the harbor entrance. A little later he was seen outside the breakwater and heading south — three days late for his rendezvous with others of his kind in the warm blue waters off Mexico.

Sims, who entered the Army in February 1951, has been awarded the UN and Korean Service Ribbons. Sheep Drive Story And Films Slated At AUHS Forum "Sheep, Stars, and Solitude," the film story of a 52-day sheep drive through the lonesome lands of Arizona, comes to Anaheim Union High school auditorium at 7:30 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 2 as the second presentation of the school's regular spring forum series. Filmed by veteran lecturer-photographer Francis Line, the colored motion picture tells the story of an annual sheep drive each year from desert lands to high mountain pastures. Line accompanied one herd of sheep on this journey, hiking the entire distance on the 52 day trek in order to film this little known phase of American life. The pictures follow the life of Rosallee, a Mexican herder, and Pablo, the camp cook, as they drive their band of 1547 sheep across the narrow suspension bridge over the Salt river, through a desert storm, to Tonto Basin, through isolated Pleasant valley, through a Navajo reservation; and finally into the high forests. Highlights include Line's films of insect and animal life and the night skies. The forum programs are presented to the residents of the Anaheim area without charge. The public is cordially invited.
