St. Jude Fund Gets $5000 As Memorial The St. Jude Hospital building fund was nearer its public subscription goal of $750,000 today when J. A. Ranney, pioneer official of the Excelsior Creamery, of Orange County, presented the gift as a memorial in the name of his late wife, Mrs. Edith Mae Ranney. Mr. Ranney's gift boosted the fund total to $736,000. The gift will be used to build and equip one of the hospital rooms in the name of Mrs. Ranney. Jack Hamilton, Phacentia realtor and chairman of the Placentia solicitation committee, joined Ranney in presenting the gift to Harvey Stonehouse, St. Jude fund drive campaign manager.

H. Renner, chairman of the citizens committee for the annual Salvation Army Salvage Week campaign here May 24-29. The importance of the radiological monitoring problem in Orange County was brought to the attention of members of the Anaheim Union School ParentTeacher Association at its May meeting by Glenn Vedder, Chief Monitor; Area X, Civil Defense. Vedder said monitors must have a sound knowledge of science and physics, a specialized training in energy radioactivity and the Geiger tube meter for registering low energy. "At the present," said Vedder, "there are two courses in monitoring being conducted in Orange County, with 30 enrolled at Fullerton Junior College and 25 at Santa Ana Junior College." This is about one third the number required to adequately carry on this work in the county in case of emergency. Monitors, by checking the radioactivity of a danger area and computing the length of time that must elapse before the area can safely be entered, render invaluable service to all Civil Defense workers, police, firemen and public utilities.

Mrs. E. H. Kersten New Assistance Employment Gain Seen Civilian employment in California increased seasonally by 35,000 between March and April, Paul Scharrenberg, Director of the Department of Industrial Relations, and William A. Burkett, Director of the Department of Employment, announced today. The April total of 4,827,000 compares with 4,792,000 in March and 4,847,000 in April 1953. According to Burkett, estimates of the Department of Employment showed a 22,000 drop in unemployment to 283,000 in April from 305,000 in March. In April from 305,000 in March, the jobless count was 198,000. Agriculture accounted for most of the employment rise between March and April this year. The balance represented small increases principally in retail trade, and local government. Employment was above year-ago levels in agriculture, trade, finance, service, and government. The gains in these industries were more than offset by losses in construction, manufacturing, and transportation, communications, and utilities. The civilian labor force in California numbered 5,110,000 persons in April, up 65,000 from a year ago. This increase together with a drop in employment from last year of 20,000 accounted for the rise of 85,000 in the number of unemployed between April 1953 and April 1954. CHURCH SPONSORS DISPLACED FAMILY Newcomers to Anaheim are Mr. and Mrs. Rudolph Elchman and three children, Rudi, Giete and Hans, formerly of Poland and the British Zone of Western Germany. As displaced persons they have immigrated to Anaheim under the sponsorship of Bethel Baptist School Mates Teachers Recall Solon as Student A school mate of Tommy Kuchel, and three teachers of the Anaheim-born U.S. Senator, are among the hundreds in Orange County working today for his election, because they found out long ago that Kuchel always tried and did everything well. Gus Lenain, who knew Kuchel when he was six years old, recalled that in Anaheim Union High School, Tommy always tried to play football—but was so light that they had to form a third string or C-team so he could make the grade. He did all right too. Mrs. Mattie Maxwell, principle of the old Central School in Anaheim, which Tommy entered to begin elementary classes, early recognized him as “a natural born leader,” and she saw him sterling qualities even then. Charles Rinehart, who taught American history, noted that Tommy liked best the paragraphs pertaining to American government and the way a great democracy is run. He knew, he said, that Tommy “would go far in government.” Kuchel was classed as “one of the outstanding leaders.” And for Mrs. Faye Kern Schulz who taught Tommy at high school the memories are just as fond She recalled that “Tommy always had “an excellent vocabulary and a keen mind.” B’way P-TA Holds Season's Last Meet A musical program marked the last meeting of the school year when the Broadway PTA convened last Tuesday.

C. Elliott, parliamentarian;; Mrs. Duncan Powers, publicity. Mrs. Harry Nutt described the Assistance League national convention which she attended in Hollywood last week and presented the new by-laws for consideration. A major change in the policy on the local level was the directive which stated that each group must carry on its own philanthropic projects in each community in such a way as to maintain direct control and administration of funds dispersed. This was interpreted to mean that the League will promote the welfare of needy individuals or families as the need presents itself rather than contributing funds to general relief work in the area.
