St. Jude-NOCHBA Me
OBLONG VIEWS
(From an Egg-Shaped Head).
By WALDO HUNTER, P.S.B.
THERE SEEMS to be no better time than now to punch some holes in "Poor Richard's Almanac"
This collection of proverbs is an irksome thing, full of the most profound inconsistencies. For example, I give you this one:
"Many a nickle makes a mickle."
As a dirty child in grade school, I was told to remember this one, and it was not until after graduation from high school that I learned what "mickle" meant.
Nursing Order Accepts Deed To NOCHBA Hospital Site
The cat was out of the bag this week with the joint nouncement Tuesday by the Sisters of St. Joseph and Northern Orange County Hospital Building association the Catholic nursing order has accepted title to the Su Hills site for their proposed St. Jude hospital.
According to the joint statement, "Formal offer of the deed climaxed a series of meetings which have been held over the past three months."
On Aug. 27, the Anaheim Gazette revealed that NOCHBA had made overtures to the sisters "in hopes of bringing them back into cooperation with the association the hospital in this area", quoting Dr. William T. Boyce, NOCH president.
The same day, in another no paper, Dr. R. Fernandez, spokesman for the St. Jude group, qualifiedly denied that such tapes had been made. He "No contact with the Sisters
"Many a nickle makes a mickle."
As a dirty child in grade school, I was told to remember this one, and it was not until after graduation from high school that I learned what "mickle" meant. Webster defines "mickle" as "much." In other words, if we translate literally, this proverb reads: "Many a nickle makes a much." My old seventh grade teacher would have dropped me in my tracks with an ink well if I had used that kind of grammar in his presence, yet he insisted that I learn the proverb.
Another one which should go by the board is:
"An apple a day keeps the doctor away."
So will a water pistol loaded with ammonia. This saying undoubtedly was originated by the Apple Trust as a device to foment sales. Anybody knows that a handful of dried prunes are much more healthful. And they keep better. You can bent 'em if you're sticking around close by the house.
"A rolling stone gathers no moss."
So, who wants to be on old moss-back?
"Neither a borrower nor a lender be, for borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry."
Try to peddle that one on Wall Street and you would be drubbed out of New York City as a Communist.
The great and good old Benjamin Franklin says in his "Almanac: He that steals the old man's does him no wrong." This is a fine thing! Old Ben would look the other way if you stole from an oldster.
"Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise."
I have a neighbor who hits the sack at 6 p.m. and arises at 5 a.m. He has a grievously advanced case of the dry warbles; he couldn't raise the price of a re-built toothpick; and he is laughingly referred to in our neighborhood as the community half-wit.
It didn't work in this case, Ben. Mr. Franklin also says:
"There's more drunkardds than old doctors."
I don't feel equipped to comment on this one.
According to the joint statement, "Formal offer of the deed climaxed a series of meetings which have been held over the past three months."
On Aug. 27, the Anaheim Gazette revealed that NOCHBA had made overtures to the sisters "in hopes of bringing them back into cooperation with the association on the building and operation of St. Jude Guild Earns $5597.71 For New Hospital"
Meeting for their first annual election of officers last Monday, members of St. Jude Hospital guild heard their treasurer, Mrs. N. B. Simm of Norwalk, report that the benefit luncheon held this month had netted $5597.71 for the hospital fund.
Elected to head the guild for the first year, which begins in October, were the organizing officers, including Mrs. P. J. Weisel, La Habra, president; Mrs. John Larson, Anaheim, first vice-president; Mrs. Arthur Dickenson, La Habra, second vice-president; Mrs. Pete Fluor, Fullerton, third vice-president; Mrs. Burton Russell, Whittier, recording secretary; Mrs. Simm, treasurer; Mrs. J. S. Rothaermal, Rivera, parliamentarian; and Miss Nora Porr, Whittier, historian.
Msgr. O'Dwyer of the Los Angeles chancellory office, in charge of Southern California hospitals operated by Catholic nursing orders, spoke to the members regarding the establishment of a hospital in this area.
He explained the survey which has been made by the state, explaining that District 69, including Anaheim, Fullerton, La Habra, Brea, Yorba Linda, East Whittier, Rivera, Norwalk, Puente and contiguous areas was originally number 14 in priority in the state and is now second or third in eligibility for federal aid.
Msgr. O'Dwyer stressed the need for inter-community cooperation within the entire district on the hospital situation and the need to put aside local prejudice and
the hospital in this area", quoted Dr. William T. Boyce, NOCH president.
The same day, in another paper, Dr. R. Fernandez, spokesman for the St. Jude group, qualifiedly denied that such organizations had been made. He said "No contact with the Sisters St. Joseph has been made by members of the Northern Orange County Hospital Building Acquisition to join forces. There is no indication at this time any contact will be made between the groups."
In addition to the 7½-acre according to the statement, Sisters will be given an open on 10 additional acres adjoin it. The property is north-of Lenton and is located on the side of Highway 101 across from the entrance to the Sunny Hill subdivision.
The new hospital, to cost approximately $1,500,000, will not less than 75 beds and will be planned for eventual expansion to 150 or 200 beds.
Two-thirds of the required funds will be solicited in an wide fund-raising campaign with the remaining third to be provided by the sisters. Fed Hill-Burton funds will be sourced and, if granted, would provide a third of the total cost of the hospital.
"We reconsidered Sunny Hite site because we knew there was no possible solution to the Northern Orange county hospitalization except through united fort," Mother Felix, superior of the Order of the Sisters of St. Joseph, said. "We have studied the whole matter very thoroughly, approaching it from every angle. Our sole concern is the unmade good of the North Orange county area and the people we are to serve."
AUHS Faculty First 6-4-6 Members
The faculty of Anaheim Ullion High School is the first organization to join the 6-4-6 club of Anaheim Community Chest.
In the first faculty meeting the teachers heard Dick Glovel give a talk on the plan which each member of an organization pledges a dollar for each of the six chest agencies
I have a neighbor who hits the sack at 6 p.m. and arises at 5 a.m. He has a grievously advanced case of the dry warbles; he couldn't raise the price of a re-built tooth-pick; and he is laughingly referred to in our neighborhood as the community half-wit.
It didn't work in this case, Ben. Mr. Franklin also says:
"There's more drunkardds than old doctors."
I don't feel equipped to comment on this one.
But there is one of Mr. Franklin's sayings with which I agree most thoroughly:
"After three days men grow weary of a wench, a guest and weather rainy."
THE LONG-SUFFERING American newspaper-reading public is again affronted by accounts of the lurid and unholy escapades of that red-headed Hollywood doxie who, long wearied of bedding with an Oriental potentate, now chooses to advertise her deep-rooted patriotism by tossing her torso at a cow-voiced draft dodger out Las Vegas way.
This ruttish and dissolute international trollop will stop at nothing in her ambitious career which seems to be founded on a program of flouting before the whole world the beautiful institution of holy wedlock.
This rusty-tressed piece of baggage and accounts of her banal conquests should be banned from the front pages; even censored from the press entirely.
But editors are shrewd cookies, and they know what people like to read about. You are the people, and the editors supply YOU with stories of the fleshy machinations of such brazen adventures because YOU like to read about them.
A late dispatch says that the FBI has been called into the case to determine who threatened the
(Sylvania Electric Breaks Ground for Tube Plant)
Last Friday was ground-breaking day for the new Sylvania Electric Products Inc. television picture tube factory at Fullerton.
To be constructed on a 20-acre site at the northeast corner of Orangethorpe ave. and Raymond ave., the plant will be the first such plant in the west to be built by a major tube maker.
It is estimated that the first plant unit, 50,000 square feet, will take seven months to build.
Among the guests at the ground-breaking were Fullerton's mayor, Hugh Warden, who said that he and the city of Fullerton were happy the company had chosen a site in the city for its first western picture tube plant.
Other guests, numbering more than 100, included company executives, industry representatives, local officials and representatives from every major television manufacturer as well as producers or radio and electronics equipment. Representatives of distributing channels numbered several scores.
Other western Sylvania facilities are located in Los Angeles Oakland and Seattle. A new electronics plant has just been put in production at Mountain View near San Jose, Calif. Another warehouse is to be built at Valle Field, in East Los Angeles, and contracts have been let for a second major electronics facility in the San Francisco Bay area.
Sylvania corporation headquarters are in Seneca Falls, N.Y., Emporia, Pa., and Salem, Mass.

Farm Policy Attitudes
Meetings of Farm Bureau centers in Orange county to discuss national farm policy continued this week with the West Orange and Cypress-Magnolia groups meeting Tuesday and another scheduled tonight in Tustin Elementary school cafeteria.
Four members of a panel, under a moderator, each presented a five-minute statement of facts and his personal viewpoints about one of the following topics: Farm Income Stability and Improvement, Production and Market Adjustments, Capital Needs of Agriculture, Trade or Aid. Discussion is then asked from the audience with questions directed to the panel.
The purpose of the discussion is to assist the farmers in making their decisions about national farm policies. The county Farm Bureau will attempt to tabulate the thinking of the farmers on these general topics and to incorporate their attitudes into a symposium of opinions to be translated into resolutions at the annual convention of Farm Bureau at San Jose in November.
Local farmers rebelled when ex-Secretary of Agriculture Branman sought to establish national "farm family policies" through voluminous data compiled in Washington, D.C. At that time the farmers stated they did not want the policies imposed upon them but would welcome an opportunity to say what they think the policies should be.
Following that reasoning, Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson recently requested the farm people of the nation, through their farm organizations or otherwise, to organize their thinking on policies and send them to the Department of Agriculture.
After discussion of the policies at the "grass-roots" level, the current series of meetings will help, Farm Bureau officials hope, to determine just what the ordinary farmers think about national farm policies.

YMCA Open House To Honor Old, New Secretaries
Open house will be held Sunday, Sept. 20, at 2:30 p.m. at the Anaheim YMCA, 121 S. Citron st., in honor of O. G. "Tommy" Thomason, who has resigned as general secretary to become principal of one of the new junior high schools, and his wife Ruth.
The occasion will also be one of welcome to the new "Y" general secretary, John E. Bertch, and his wife, Ramona, according to M. A. Gauer, chairman of the committee in charge.
Others serving on the Open House committee are Warren Ashleigh, president of the board of directors, Mrs. Alice Schmid, president of the Women's committee, Frank N. Gibbs, chairman of the Advisory board and Stephen Holden, president of the Y's Men's club.
Following a short program of special events at the annual convention of Farm Bureau at San Jose in November.

Lt. Gov Goodwin J. Knight will definitely be a candidate for governor next year. A statement, released for publication today, follows:
"I definitely will be a candidate for Governor of California at the June primaries. I have so declared on several occasions, but at the request of many friends I now want to make this formal announcement and state very clearly that the decision is final."
My first objective will be to win the Republican nomination. I am a registered Republican and have been all my adult life.
Because a great number of my Democratic friends tell me they wish to support me, I shall also seek the Democratic nomination. In recent weeks tens of thousands of pledge cards have been sent to me from every part of the state, and almost half of them are signed by registered Democrats.
If I am elected governor, I naturally will try to be a good governor for all the people, not just some of them.
In 1950 I withdrew from the race for governor in the interest of benefiting Fall Fair Tonight at Anaheim.
Anaheim's annual fall fair showing to which every member of the family is invited will held this evening at 8 o'clock in the auditorium of Anahiem Union High school.

I have served California as Superior Court judge and lieutenant governor to the best of my ability.

Eisenhower Returned Integrity to U. S.
"Integrity has come back (to first time since his appointment last year to the US Senate. Appearing to welcome the senator last night were officials from all levels of government, including the mayors of Orange county's 14 cities, the county supervisors, State Assemblymen Earl Stanley and LeRoy Lyon, State Senator John Murdy, and State Controller Robert Kirkwood. Congressman James B. Utt of Santa Ana had intended to attend, but was called back to Washington at the last minute.
Esorted to the stage of the theater with the Senator were the following members of his family: His mother, Mrs. Henry Kuchel; his wife, Betty, and his brother, Ted, and his wife. The daughter of Senator and Mrs. Kuchel, Karen, was also present.
Sen. Kuchel, who was introduced by Sen. Murdy, declared: "All too often in the past, decisions were reached surreptitiously and in secret; but the public business is today being transacted under full public scrutiny. Why? Simply because this country has a leader who, honest, patriotic, loyal and possessed of the highest degree of integrity, has carried these virtues into the White House and has insisted that those qualities be adhered to in all branches of the federal government."
In the past," he said, "suspicion of evil has arisen in innumerable instances, and proof of evil."
ROCLAIMS KUCHEL DAY—Yesterday was U. S. Senator Tom Kuchel Day in Anaheim, following the signing of a proclamation by Mayor Charles Pearson, above.

Good Shepherd Lutheran Home Assn. Increases Board to Twenty Members
Members of Good Shepherd Lutheran Home of the West voted to base their board of directors 20 when the second annual meeting of the association was Sunday in Zion Lutheran Church. A. J. Schutte presided; one directors were elected for two year term. Orange county who will serve include Paul Dorde, O. M. Geissler and Mrs. C. Ulrich of Anaheim; Mrs. e Mueller of Orange Others.
Officers will be elected at the October board meeting. The association also voted to begin holding annual meetings in Terra Bella next year, since the proposed home and school for the mentally handicapped is to be built in that community.
A fund raising campaign for the project is now under way, the goal for the first unit set at $125,000. Building plans for the home business is today being transacted under full public scrutiny. Why? Simply because this country has a leader who, honest, patriotic, loyal and possessed of the highest degree of integrity, has carried these virtues into the White House and has insisted that those qualities be adhered to in all branches of the federal government.
"In the past," he said, "susplcion of evil has arisen in innumerable instances, and proof of evil has too often been supplied, to admit of an over-abundance of pride in the government of our country.
"On the contrary," the senator declared, "where mistakes have been made these last eight months, they have been honest ones."
On the international scene, Sen. Kuchel stated, "events of these last several months of Mr. Eisenhower's leadership and affirmative foreign policy have led us to new strength and permit us to have a sobered confidence in the future instead of uneasiness and fear. The president stands for a prepared America, soberly confident of our ability to defend our liberties and safeguard our people."
Stating his belief that the United States cannot and will not continue a policy of going further into debt, the senator declared that the nation has come to a turn in the fiscal road during the past seven months.
"The last Congress under Truman appropriated more than $75 billion," he pointed out. "Last January Truman asked Congress for an appropriation of $68 billion. Between President Eisenhower and the Congress, $14 billion was cut from Truman's request and a little over $54 billion was appropriated.
This means that Congress this year cut spending over the previous year by more than $20 billion, a more than 25 per cent reduction in new appropriations in one year.
"That reduction assures you and me of an 11 per cent personal income tax reduction next January, 1954," the senator declared.
The junior senator from California stated that he will support the proposed amendment to the Constitution of the United States which would hold that treaties cannot conflict with the US Constitution. He pointed out the danger to the people and the Constitution of executive agreements, which have absolutely no check...
members of Good Shepherd Lutheran Home of the West voted to release their board of directors 20 when the second annual meeting of the association was Sunday in Zion Lutheran Church. A. J. Schutte presided; one director were elected for two year term. Orange county who will serve include Paul Orde, O. M. Geissler and Mrs. C. Ulrich of Anaheim; Mrs. E. Mueller of Orange. Others were Walter Plehn of Hot Springs, Mrs. P. F. Light of Santa Rosa, the Rev. H. J. Trinklein of Portland, and Mrs. Selma Fisher of Ore.
Officers will be elected at the October board meeting. The association also voted to begin holding annual meetings in Terra Bella next year, since the proposed home and school for the mentally handicapped is to be built in that community.
A fund raising campaign for the project is now under way, the goal for the first unit set at $125,-000. Building plans for the home were outlined by Fred Gerdes of Terra Bella, building committee chairman.
Inspirational speaker for the afternoon meeting was the Rev. E. H. Pfug, pastor of the host church and retiring member of the board.
"Notwithstanding matters of faith, it is an economic fact that I am my brother's keeper," Jordan told them, "You sell a product unless you about it." He covered a Feather chart with pictures rating the purposes of each six agencies, Girl Scouts, Scouts, Visiting Nurses, Salem Army, Children's Hospital Catholic Welfare. He then used the segments on the chart and built a silver dollar showcased the proportionate use of each agency in the chest. Plan emphasized that this goal is 10 per cent high in the goal last year and is 20 per cent higher than the amount gathered last year.
"Anaheim's population is now estimated at approximately 22,000, which is a growth of one-third in less than three years. Now do you see why these agencies will need more funds to operate?" he asked.
"Notwithstanding matters of faith, it is an economic fact that I am my brother's keeper," Jordan said and warned that one way to avoid the threat of socialized welfare is to accept responsibility of community welfare work.
The key workers set a good example for the people who will work with them by signing their own pledge cards before leaving with their materials. Mrs. R. W. Marvin, chest secretary, showed them how to use their material and told of the business solicitation which began Tuesday and the residential solicitation which begins in two weeks.
Joe Catanich of Orange County Federated Community Chests spoke briefly and the invocation was given by the Rev. A. J. Casebeer, public relations chairman for the drive. The chart used in Jordan's talk was the work of Don May, local commercial artist.
Mayor Charles Pearson added an encouraging footnote to the breakfast pep talk when he told the workers that a number of local industries have adopted the payroll deduction plan of giving and that Kwikset Locks, Inc., has pledged $1000 and has granted permission to the Chest to solicit the 850 employees of that firm.
Divisions beginning their campaigns Monday are industrial, suburban business, civic and governmental and professional. Business teams began Tuesday and suburban residential workers are receiving their material this week.
