CMON IN—Lovely Shirley Buchanan, queen of the eighth Los Angeles Home show, June 4-14, at Pan Pacific auditorium, invites all kids—8 to 80—to view the "Little House for Little People," one of the features of the home building expositions, largest in the world. The little house is specially equipped with
Los Angeles Home Show Opens at Pan-Pacific for Ten-Day Run
Finishing touches were applied to Pan Pacific auditorium in preparation for today's grand opening of the 1953 Los Angeles Home show.
From June 4 through 14 more than $4,000,000 worth of exhibits will be displayed for Southern California families. The very newest ideas in decorating, home furnishing, outdoor living, building and appliances will be paraded amid beauty, pageantry and showmanship, according to Managing Direcor Carl Kraatz.
In addition, zany Spike Jones will present his all-new musical depreciation revue on a huge outdoor stage twice daily at approximately 7 and 9 o'clock. On Saturdays and Sundays, madcap Jones will do a 3:30 p.m. matinee. "Best thing of all," said Carl Kraatz, "is that Spike Jones is excellent fun for the entire family."
Kraatz warned women to wear low heel shoes when they visit the home show. He said people should plan to spend several hours at the exposition enjoying such attractions as: "Pioneer" and "Coronation" model homes; cars used in recent atom bomb tests in Nevada; the amazing Coleman air conditioning unit; a $25,000 garden by Armstrong nurseries featuring the national rose champion, the "Mojave"; the funny exhibit sponsored by the Associated Plumbing Contractors of Los Angeles; the "Little House" for kids; the priceless Polvin exhibit of miniature carved figures; the beautiful home furnishing salon; the gay and colorful Mardi Gras; three priceless chandeliers weighing six tons; the "Poor Man's Country club" complete with golf driving range; the J. A. Powers memorial fountain with spectacular changing lights; a 3-D display and many other exciting exhibits. Also, people will be able to watch their favorite tv programs on a huge 8 x 10 foot Singer screen.
Kraatz added that for sheer beauty this year's home show, sponsored by the 13 construction industries, will surpass any previous exposition. Doors open at 11 p.m. daily.
Marines Solve Traffic Puzzle For Jamboreers
Getting traffic across a short span of water on the road to the Boy Scout Jamboree site at Irvine ranch presented no problem to the fixed bridge platoon of Camp Pendleton's Seventh marine engineers.
Scout officials who were worried about the narrow wooden bridge bottleneck across a narrow inlet of upper Newport bay, called on the marines to help speed the way for incoming jamboree traffic.

Around Observer Corps in Orange for Local Volunteers
By S/SGT. LESTER A. CARPENTER
A few days ago I was talking to the editor of a weekly newspaper here in Orange county. Somehow or other the conversation drifted around to the local fire department. Being an unincorporated city, the smoke eaters were all volunteers, and volunteers are wont to lose interest in anything after mile. Well, these firefighters are no different than any other volunteer. Interest lagged and by one they dropped out of program.
Pretty soon none was left. Their equipment fell into disrepair; it got flat, hoses rotted. When there was a fire. By the time the local brigade was assembled and limped on its way to the block away, engines from nearby communities were at the scene. All were too late; the building had burned down. Over months that followed the thing happened again and then finally the townspeople got up. They got behind the fire department. The firemen's ranks led and equipment was readied. The men trained two and three nights a week! they became proficient as a big city firefighter. Now there's a waiting list hopeful candidates for the fighting team.

citizens can sleep soundly at night.
Seems like it's human to let the mice in before the door is closed. The damage is done, then we act. It happened in this little city and it's happening at this very moment in North Orange County.
This is a little different proposition, but the idea's the same. Instead of the door being open to fire, it's open to enemy attack from the air. The door is ten miles high and as wide as our borders, north, south, east and west.
A tremendous gateway, it is guarded by an efficient triumvirate—radar, the Ground Observer Corps and jet interceptors. None of the three can do the job alone. The jets will shoot down an enemy aircraft entering our gateways, but they must first know an enemy is present and know his location.
This is the point undertaking of the Air Force's radar network and the Ground Observer Corps. Radar operates on a line of sight basis, much the same as television does, and is not always effective in mountainous areas and at low altitudes.
It is for this reason that the GOC is necessary; human eyes and ears must supplement radar.

Microwave Development Graphically Demonstrated for Local Optimists
How the Bell Telephone's transcontinental communications advanced from the heavy 3800 mile-long wire lead insulated cable to today's space-jumping micro-wave was dramatically explained and illustrated by electrical engineer Corbin C. Devalon from the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Co. at Los Angeles before the Optimists last Thursday night. It was a microwave that sent the first news of the signing of the Japanese peace treaty across the nation on Sept. 4, 1952 to appear on television all over these United States. How this remarkable accomplishment became possible was the story told by Devalon.
"Every time you tune in your local television program and get an event taking place at that moment in a far distant city it comes to you through the nation's telephone facilities. From New York City the televised event travels by microfilm with the speed of light. It takes 1/60 part of one second to see and hear what is happening across the nation."
Microwaves, it was graphically demonstrated, travel in an unbending straight line. Due to mountains and curvatures of the earth it takes 107 relay stations to carry your favorite television event across the United States. Located on top of the telephone building in Los Angeles are four towers. Two of these owers beam microwaves to Santiago peak to be boosted to Palomar mountain and San Diego. The other two beam the programs across Cahuenga pass to Oak mountain near Newhall, on to Tehachapi.
