OBLONG VIEWS (From an Egg-Shaped Head) By WALDO HUNTER, P.S.B. Seems that Americans are far more agitated these days about the sinister and gradual rise in the price of coffee than they are in possible repercussions from the recent Big Four conference in Berlin or the possibility of the U.S. getting involved in the Indo-China shooting war. You can ask someone what he thinks about the U.S. sending 200 Air Force technicians to help the French Forces in Indo-China, and he is liable to say: "Well, if it goes up to $1.20 a pound I'll start drinking goat's milk." We Americans always were nuts about coffee. Some people, I fear, remember the hardship of the coffee scarcity during World War II above all other inconveniences. And, perhaps five out of ten today couldn't tell you what happened to the battleship USS Arizona. If each and every coffee drinker in the United States would lay off the stuff for just one week, the price would tumble. But how can we get any concerted action on this? Some sporadic instances of buyers' resistance flare up here and there across the country, but sooner or later that old craving sets in, and the crusaders creep miserably down to the market and pay through the nose for that delicious Ambrosia which wafts its heady aroma throughout the house early in the morning, sweeping cobwebs from the brain and setting taste buds aquiver. Funny thing about the whole problem is the fact that coffee is not a necessity. It is a luxury. It has absolutely not one smidgin of food value. No proteins, no calories, no nothin' unless, of course, sugar and/or cream are Four new ordinances, dealing with everything from bus benches to former felons, passed first readings this week before the Anaheim City Council. The ordinance dealing with installation and maintenance of bus benches along Anaheim streets was backed by the merchants' division of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce. The Cross Town Bus Company, presently operating in Anaheim, Fullerton and Placentia, first made application to the city last month to install wood and concrete bus benches that would carry advertising and help defray expenses of operating the transit concern. A spokesman at that time said it was hoped the added revenue would enable the firm to eventually expand its facilities in Anaheim. Provisions listed by the council in passing the ordinance in a first reading included: written application for placing benches with consent of abutting property owners must be received by the city; the chief of police will issue all permits, an inspection fee of $1, benches rights revoked if pedestrian passage on sidewalks is ham- White Temple To Enlarge San By an overwhelming Quarterly Conference session to embark upon a campaign large classroom and sanctuary and to build a new Fellow will approximate $135,000. Overcrowded children's rooms, despite duplicate two-sessions for that department of church school, first prompted church board to set up a community last fall to investigate remodel possibilities of the existing structure to redeem much wasted space and provide adequately for rapidly growing enrollment. Cause this space must come to the present rear half of the stuary, behind folding doors, it became necessary to enlist present front seating capacity, the main auditorium. In order to furnish a meet place for the congregation due this structural remodeling of miserably down to the market and pay through the nose for that delicious Ambrosia which wafts its heady aroma throughout the house early in the morning, sweeping cobwebs from the brain and setting taste buds aquiver. Funny thing about the whole problem is the fact that coffee is not a necessity. It is a luxury. It has absolutely not one smidgin of food value. No proteins, no calories, no nothin' unless, of course, sugar and/or cream are added. I have known people who never drank a cup of coffee in their lives. Some of them even reached 50. I get a kick out of those coffee hounds who stoutly (and publicly) declares: "If coffee gets to a dollar a pound, I'm quitting it." He makes good on his resolution, too, for perhaps a week, then skulks down to the supermart with his coat collar turned up around his ears and his hat brim pulled down over his eyes, then furtively sneaks up back alleys to his home with a suspicious bulge showing under his coat. It is a can of coffee for which, with a trembling hand, he paid the clerk $1.01. Down here at the Gazette, as at many other establishments, we have every morning at an appointed hour the traditional "coffee break." It is a period of enjoyment around an ancient electric coffee pot during which we swill a cup or two, discuss technical printing problems, outline the day's operating schedule, and in general, take a break from the daily turmoil. Bill Hoffman, our pressman, is by popular acclamation the official coffee maker, largely because of his ability to make no two consecutive pots of the brew taste the same. On Monday, it may taste like coffee on Tuesday, it has a pungent battery-acid flavor. On Wednesday there may be just a haunting suggestion of a coffee taste impregnated with papaya juice. But still, coffee is the basic ingredient. This week, however, in a feeble effort to strike a blow at the coffee cartel and do our part in the slowly gathering storm of buyers' resistance, we bought a coffee substitute. In its uncooked form, it has the appearance of ground coffee, and smells like it. After percolating, however, the similarity was hoped the added revenue would enable the firm to eventually expand its facilities in Anaheim. Provisions listed by the council in passing the ordinance in a first reading included: written application for placing benches with consent of abutting property owners must be received by the city; the chief of police will issue all permits, an inspection fee of $1, benches rights revoked if pedestrian passage on sidewalks is hampered or if 60 per cent of the property owners within 200 feet of the benches object. Ernie Moeller, Anaheim Chamber of Commerce secretary, said bench placement should be regulated by the City Council with all rights to put up the seats reserved to the Cross Town Bus Company. He said he was in favor of such a franchise because it would be beneficial to Anaheim residents as well as the bus concern and that otherwise, on an ordinance basis, any person who qualifies could put up benches. The council agreed to hold over any decision on the matter until the next meeting. Reading of the proposed ordinance on all of the construction of a neighborhood commercial zone on the northeast corner of Placentia Ave. and Anaheim-Olive Rd. was held. Applicant is the Bill Company of Anaheim which seeks the reclassification of 10 lots on the corner from R-1 to C-1! The commercial zone will include a dozen small shops flanking a large supermarket. Some of the provisions to be included in the rezoning ordinance are: all building plans and deed restrictions in the area must be approved by an architectural committee, all buildings of more than 9000 square feet must be of masonry or some other fireproof material, no building may be located closer than 75 feet from the center line of the street and customer service parking shall be provided. Passing its first reading was an amendment of a present ordinance which would require all persons formerly convicted of a felony now living in Anaheim to register with the police department. Another ordinance that passed first reading calls for all decisions of the planning commission to be subject to approval of the City Council. As the law presently exists, a variance once passed by the planners cannot be rejected by the council unless the applicant Pasadena architectural district of Neptune and Thomas were gaged as architects last fall, the Official Board requested complete plan to meet all four expansion needs, due to Anaheim doubling population. The plan also submitted and accepted the congregation provides for three-phase construction. Offices Re-Located The first phase involves erection of a soundproof wall approximately one-third of the way back of present folding doors, and the modeling of both floors being to furnish five additional new children's rooms, toiletts both floors, also it involves relation of the three church offices including the pastor's study, in area now occupied by a corrugated just south of the sanctuary. This releases the present pastor's stance and the corner vestibule for classroom space also, and thus creates a total of seven new classrooms for the church school. New Dining Room The second phase, to be built when funds become available, will be a new dining room seating 8 to be constructed on the proper now occupied by the Minister Youths' parsonage. This dinning hall will have a south-end stair and new north-end kitchen facades divisible by folding doors if adult or youth classroom spaces will be constructed to allow for story classrooms to be built over it when needed. This unit provide a temporary place of worship for church services during the sanctuary remodeling, and also release three additional business rooms for classroom space. Sanctuary Remodeled The final phase: remodeling the sanctuary, will provide moving the organ pipes into This week, however, in a feeble effort to strike a blow at the coffee cartel and do our part in the slowly gathering storm of buyers' resistance, we bought a coffee substitute. In its uncooked form, it has the appearance of ground coffee, and smells like it. After percolating, however, the similarity comes to a screeching halt. Its ingredients are: bran, soy beans, wheat and rye, figs, maltose, and honey. An intrepid and rugged crew, we all tried a cue with fair success. It had no ill effects on me, except that everything I look at takes on a brilliant orange color. Also, I would hesitate to dunk a piece of toast in it for fear of precipitating some kind of explosion. President Ike not long ago said he was going to "look into" the coffee situation, but it seems that the only thing he has been looking into recently is a golf bag. Even as he frolicked with Ben Hogan on the fairways at Palm Springs over the week end coffee prices gradually "readjusted" themselves upward. In a serious effort to sound out public sentiment at the grassroots level regarding coffee prices, your correspondent telephoned John Nance Swithins, prominent weasel breeder out Westminster way. "What do you think of the trends in coffee Mr. Swithins?" was the question. "Ain't no trends in mine," was his reply. "Just grounds." Bravo to Sen. McCarthy for accomplishing something that neither the Kaiser, Hitler, Mussolini, or Tejo were able to do. That is, forcing the U.S. Army to capitulate. Passing its first reading was an amendment of a present ordinance which would require all persons formerly convicted of a felony now living in Anaheim to register with the police department. Another ordinance that passed first reading calls for all decisions of the planning commission to be subject to approval of the City Council. As the law presently exists, a variance once passed by the planners cannot be rejected by the council unless the applicant so wishes. Jaycees Sponsor Friday Dances The Anaheim Junior Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring Jaycee Hops each Friday from 8:30 until midnight at 135½ W. Center St. Music for this week will be furnished by Bobbv Lee and his orchestra. Admission is 50 cents per person.

WED 45 YEARS As Mr. and Mrs. William Clasen observed their 45th wedding anniversary on Sunday at their home at 7952 Acacia street, they were surprised by a party planned by their four sons.

The final phase, remodelled the sanctuary, will provide moving the organ pipes into stairs room doubling the size the chancel area to provide seating space for a choir of fifty roll-out stage, with dress rooms on either end, will furnish drama facilities for the main sanctuary. A new balcony will be pended from the rear wall, enclosing the present 300 seating capacity in the front part of the sanctuary to 550. By narrowing lengthening the nave, an entire new effect will be created in more vern styling, and all lighting ventilating facilities will be re-vailed. This phase also includes construction of a second north floor above the present parlor or creating a new choir room and large youth classroom or chapel. A 30-month campaign is contemplated, to begin in the spring under the supervision of the H.P.Demand organization Contract bids will be let after time. Contest Winner MissDonna May, 1011 Sycamore St., won the 17th annual Orange County American Legion oratoral contest over five other contests last week. Fifty dollars was awarded her for her dress concerning the controversy proposed Bricker Amendment. She will represent Orange County in the fifth area contest on February 28 in Ontario. OP DEVOTION TO ALL THAT IS GOOD IN ANAHEIM ORANGE COUNTY'S OLDEST NEWSPAPER ESTABLISHED IN 1870 PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY ANAHEIM, ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, FEB. 25, 1954 Finances Approved from City Council White Temple Methodist Church to Enlarge Sanctuary; New Hall By an overwhelming vote of the membership at a special quarterly Conference session on Tuesday evening, Feb. 16, White Temple Methodist church of Anaheim has decided embark upon a campaign this Spring to remodel and enlarge classroom and sanctuary facilities, create new offices, to build a new Fellowship Hall building.

Al DeWitt, Anaheim business man, visited Ike and Mamie at a Sunday night reception in the Smoke Tree Ranch guest house where the President and his wife were vacationing. Accompanying the DeWitts were their daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Henry, also of Anaheim and the younger DeWitt daughter, 13-year-old Paula. The Anaheim man first knew Ike in the early 1920's. At that time DeWitt was in the tank corps and a member of the group's football team. Coach of the 1921-22 team was Maj. Dwight Eisenhower. When DeWitt heard that his former coach — who has since switched to golf—was coming to Palm Springs, he dropped him a note telling the President he would like to see him again.

Terry as a solution to overcrowded facilities which will develop by February 1955 when estimated school enrollment will jump from the present 240 to 1,065 pupils due to prospective sub-division coming in the area.
