OBLONG VIEWS (From an Egg-Shaped Head) By WALDO HUNTER, P.S.B. THE HUMAN ANATOMY (For Beginners) Although the basic components of the human body (the chemicals, minerals, and such) have been computed to be worth actually only 98 cents, the human body as it is known today is worth a heap sight more than that. Ask any practicing physician. It is a hard fact that we are paying far, far too much for medical care. But then, on the other hand, we are also paying far, far too much for automobiles and TV sets. This is a profound argument in favor of the medics. There is only one rebuttal; we can live without the autos and TV sets. I harbor a vague suspicion that the first doctor, ages ago, who put the first stethoscope (a piece of paper rolled into a tube, I believe) to the chest of his first patient heard gold coins clinking and muttered to himself, "this is for me", then to the croaking patient: "if you cough up any gold, call me immediately." I have often tried to summon up enough courage (or "gall," as they used to say over in Yorba Linda) to ask a doctor to answer truthfully the question: "Would you like to see everyone in the world in perfect health?" Do you think I would receive an honest, open answer? A straight yes or no? Decidedly not. The doc would suddenly peer closely into my native Daughters of the Golden West, Grace Parlor No. 242, is helping the public to register for chest X-rays at the County Fair this week as a result of plans made at the recent regular meeting of the group.

The July birthday girls held by Pauline Johnson presided at the social hour. The next regular meeting will be August 19 with initiation held. LOCAL COUPLE MARRY IN LAS VEGAS RITES Sunday, July 25, was the wedding day of Georgia Dorothea Emerson and Frederick Jack Sanchez according to the announcement made by the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. George Emmerson of 219 Diamond Street. The young couple were married in Las Vegas, and are now making a temporary home at Ft. Ord, where the holdings of the Grace Parlor, NDGW To Work at Fair Native Daughters of the Golden West, Grace Parlor No. 242, is helping the public to register for chest X-rays at the County Fair this week as a result of plans made at the recent regular meeting of the group. President Leota Carden announced committee appointments at the meeting and lists them as follows: Children's foundation, Val Renner; history and landmarks, Doris Jacobsen and Tillie Enfield; Americanism, Grace Moore; civic participation, Frances Davis, Dorothy Brooks; veterans welfare, Ollie Trook and Pauline Johnson; legislation, Helen Renard; ways and means, Madelyn Hainlin; geriatric ward, County hospital, Doris Barthe; TB ward at County hospital, Eva 'Rice'; young womens' activities, Edith Beatty and Lea Manstrum; publicity in Fullerton, Grace Moore, in Buena Park, Sylvia Meyers, in Placentia, Mae Lemke and in Anaheim, Frances Davis; hospitality, Mae Lemke; pioneer roster, Winnie Benson; public speaking, Myra Bemnis. The July birthday girls held by Pauline Johnson presided at the social hour. The next regular meeting will be August 19 with initiation held. Hold Meeting of Christian Churches The Association of Christian Churches under the leadership President H. H. Stabbert met a recent evening at the Bea Baptist church to discuss several matters of interest both to church and community. Final arrangements for a Community Church Night are being made by the Executive Committee. The released Time Christian Education Program in the school was the main topic of the coming time. The coming school presents a need for approximately thirty classes among schools. Teachers, material classrooms will be needed. Most feasible plan it was fled would be to acquire two mobile units. These units are specially constructed house trailers seating 36 pupils. One jeep would be necessary to transport the trailers. These units could take to the schools which would eliminate transporting the pupil to nearby churches. Also it would save time important to the school and the Released Time program. Rev. Al Casebeer and his committee, Bob Martin, Bob Brownman, Rev. Walker, Rev. Jackson and Mr. Stabbert reported on the mobile units and were very much impressed with the setup. They naturally lead to a financial plan and the following were pointed as a finance committee Chairman Joe Thompson, Lowry Fickle, H. D. Harpster, S. F. Hagenfeld and Rev. Stief. As this most worthwhile project progresses the Executive Committee will keep our city formed. I have often tried to summon up enough courage (or "gall," as they used to say over in Yorba Linda) to ask a doctor to answer truthfully the question: "Would you like to see everyone in the world in perfect health?" Do you think I would receive an honest, open answer? A straight yes or no? Decidedly not. The doc would suddenly peer closely into my right eye, say "hmmm", and ask me if my grandfather had died of jungle rot. Fact is, I understand this question actually was introduced to the floor of the Michigan State Medical Association at Ypsilanti back in '02. Some credence was lent to the suspicion that it was an unpopular subject for discussion when the cadaver of the delegate proposing it was later found in an ante-room of the convention hall garroted with the rubber tubes of a stethoscope. But the human body is, perforce, an interesting thing. Take your lungs, for instance. If all the thousands of tiny air sacs in your lungs were laid out flat, they would cover an area about the size of a 12x18 floor. However, this is not advised. The medics differ widely in method, practice and theory, but present a solid phalanx when the question of fees comes up. The old nominal fee for medical treatment may now be termed the PHE-nominal fee. One eminent medical authority (this is not a cigarette commercial) recently astounded his colleagues with the unprecedented announcement that he could diagnose all human lils simply by listening to the joints. He may have something there. Wonder if he ever listened to that joint down there on East Fourth St. in Santa Ana. Our bodies have a devilish habit of treating us pretty shoddily in many instances. This is unfair, for we rarely do anything to abuse our bodies, do we? Did you ever stand up suddenly after stooping over for a long period of time rooting for truffles and get a sharp, dizzy twinge in the noggin? Like someone had hit you in the back of the head with a copy of Gridley's Guide to English Dog Cemeteries? It has been wisely written that LOCAL COUPLE MARRY IN LAS VEGAS RITES Sunday, July 25, was the wedding day of Georgia Dorothea Emerson and Frederick Jack Sanchez according to the announcement made by the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. George Emmerson of 219 Diamond Street. The young couple were married in Las Vegas, and are now making a temporary home at Ft. Ord, where the bridegroom is stationed as a member of the U.S. Army He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Chris Sanchez of Anaheim. Mr. and Mrs. Allen Taylor of 1214 E. Chestnut St., became parents of an 8 lb. 1 oz. son in St. Joseph hospital on August 2. ANNOUNCE ENGAGEMENT Mr. and Mrs. Bert V. Hammett of 8111 Ventura street, have announced the engagement of their daughter, Virginia, to Brian Leachman of Fullerton. The young couple plan to be married sometime in September. Mr. and Mrs. Andrew M. Krumanaker and children of 8341 Magnolia avenue, recently returned from an extended vacation trip, visiting in northern California, Oregon, Washington and British Columbia. While boating in Puget Sound, they unexpectedly met Forest Simonstons of Anaheim. Grace Parlor, NDGW Holds Installation Grace Parlor No. 242 of Native Daughters of the Golden West was visited during formal installation ceremonies by its founder and namesake, Grace Stormier of L.A. Parlor, Grand Past President. She was on hand to see Deputy Margaret Miller of Compton Parlor install the following officers for the new year: Leota Carden, president; Madelyn Haillin, first vice-president; Elizabeth Bennet, second vice-president; Helen Renard, third vice-president; Alice Martindale, marshal; Doris Barthele, inside sentinel; Dorothy Brooks, outside sentinel; and trustees, Olive Trook, Winnie Benson, Frances Davis. The American Legion Hall was decorated in the club colors of red, white and yellow. Miss Mary Jean Pelous, seven-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alexis Pelous, entered with accolades held on August 19 with initiation held. First reading of an ordinance continuing the Anaheim property tax rate at $1.10 per $100 of assessed valuation was conducted this week by city councilmen. The tax rate must be set by Sept. 1. Councilmen, in sustaining the present tax rate, said bond issues must be approved by voters in the near future to pay for capital expenditures including sewers, water lines, street improvements and power lines such a bond issue cannot be applied, councilmen indicated it might be necessary to invoke city sales tax and a higher tax rate. Mayor Pearson said the bond issue is needed to pay for the improvements undergoing development. These areas can't pay for the improvements now, but will eventually be able to do so. There will be no increase in the property tax rate if a bond issue can be passed because the bonds can be paid off with the increased revenue obtained from the natural expansion of the city-owned light, water and power services. It was made clear that either Annaheim grows with the areas annexed or the city simply lets the areas grow haphazardly. For the city to develop advantageously, the adjacent areas must be supplied sewers, water, power and fire protection immediately upon entry into the community, councilmen said. COUNTY HOME DEPT. NEW OFFICERS ELECTED Orange County Home Department officers for the year 1954-55 are: Miss Helen Meyer, Orange, Mrs. Alexis Pelous, enter Our bodies have a devilish habit of treating us pretty shoddy in many instances. This is unfair, for we rarely do anything to abuse our bodies, do we? Did you ever stand up suddenly after stooping over for a long period of time rooting for truffles and get a sharp, dizzy twinge in the noggin? Like someone had hit you in the back of the head with a copy of Gridley's Guide to English Dog Cemeteries? It has been wisely written that the stomach may be likened to good government. If it is working right you never know you have one. The stomach is a popular piece of the anatomy because it is so centrally located. Speaking of the stomach brings up the matter of appetite. It is known only to a small cell of us specialists that a little gadget which is called the appostat regulates appetite. In normal persons, the appostat is located in the brain. It is anybody's guess where certain members of Congress carry theirs. To show off my knowledge of medical terms, I once remarked to my wife after she had eaten a particularly hearty meal: "Your appostat is certainly working better these days, dear." The curtain of charity is drawn across the scene that followed. In certain parts of the country where wealth is concentrated, patients are charged for medical services in direct proportion to their social standing. This sort of "socialized" medicine has yet to be attacked by the honorable A.M.A. Much is made of the fact that life expectancy today is as high as 25% above that of 100 years ago, and the medical profession takes all the kudoes for this. This fixture can probably be explained by the fact that there are today so many more laymen than doctors. Polio Strikes Brother, Sister In Local Family An Anaheim brother and sister were listed as the latest victims of poliomelitis as infantile paralysis continued to take its toll in Orange county. Beatrice Panoas, 9, and her brother, Ted, 8, children of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Papinas of 926 S. Los Angeles street, were admitted to the Orange County General Hospital communicable disease ward with spinal attacks of polio. The Papinas family has one other child, 17 months old, who reportedly is untouched by the disease. Also admitted to the county hospital with a mild non-paralytic attack of polio was Mrs. Robert P. McCowan, 27, of 539 Fulerton street. Newport Heights. Dr. Edward Lee Russell, county health officer, said the total number of cases this year now stands at 80, or more than 1¼ times the total of 55 at this time last year. COUNTY HOME DEPT. NEW OFFICERS ELECTED Orange County Home Department officers for the year 1954-55 are: Miss Helen Meyer, Orange chairman; Mrs. Charles Barnett, Garden Grove, vice-chairman; Mrs Frank Nuslein, Villa Park, secretary; Mrs. William Nichols, Costa Mesa, treasurer; Mrs. Earl Laux, Garden Grove, Mrs. Howard Pannier, Anaheim, and Mrs. Ernest Henry, Tustin, directors. Mr. and Mrs. Merton Landweer have sold their home at 13131 Country Lane and will move to their new place in the San Fernando Valley within two weeks. Santa Fe Flagman Dies at Crossing Russell R. Wilt, 63, an Indiana native in California since 1909, and in Anaheim for four years, serving as a crossing watchman for the Santa Fe R. R. Co., at Center street, died very unexpectedly August 4, in the small flagman's shelter. The family home is in the Orange Grove Trailer Camp at 913 South Palm street. He is survived by his wife, Lerna Wilt, and one foster daughter, Mrs. Thelma Christenson of Auburn, Washington. Funeral services were conducted in the Stevens-Bobbitt funeral chapel, located at 1156 "F" street. San Bernardino. Saturday morning Aug. 7 at 10 o'clock, followed by interment in the family plot in Mountain View cemetery. Hold Meeting of Christian Churches The Association of Christian Churches under the leadership of President H. H. Stabbert met on recent evening at the Bethel church to discuss several issues of interest both to church community. Special arrangements for a Community Church Night are being by the Executive Committee. The coming school term units a need for approximate thirty classes among our啦 Teachers, material and rooms will be needed. The feasible plan, it was felt, be to acquire two mobile These units are special structured house trailers each carrying 36 pupils. One jeep would necessary, to transport the two units. These units could be to the schools which would mate transporting the pupils arby churches. Also in would time important to the school the Released Time program. Mr. Al Casebeer and his com-mite, Bob Martin, Bob Brook-Rev. Walker, Rev. Jacksteit Mr. Stabbert reported on the units and were very much assisted with the setup. Thisally leads to a financing and the following were aped as a finance committee: man Joe Thompson, Lowell, H. D. Harpster, S. F. Hilld and Rev. Stief. This most worthwhile pro-progresses the Executive Committee will keep our city in. 82 YEARS OF DEVOTION TO ALL THAT ANAHEIM ORANGE COUNTY'S OLDEST NEWSPAPER ESTABLISHED IN 1870 PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY VOLUME LXXXIII ANAHEIM, ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA Anaheim’s Assessed Valuation Increase Tops All County Cities by Wide Margin Topping other cities in the county by a wide margin, Anaheim showed an $11,000,000 increase in assessed valuation during the past year, according to a breakdown of assessments over the county released by County Auditor L.

July 31, united in marriage Miss Lorraine Pannier, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Howard Pannier of 11611 Euclid avenue, and Le Roy Prater, son of Mr. and Mrs. O. E. Prater of Loyalton.

Legion Auxiliary to Hold Rummage Sale Members of the executive board of the American Legion Auxiliary met last Thursday evening, Aug 5 at the home of the president Mrs erna Hopkins of 812 N. Pal street. The members made plans for the coming year with the first welfare project to be a rummage sale in late August or first of September. Members were requested to save items for the sale.

The party took form o a carnival for patients and the Council Moves Hold Tax Rate at $1.10 At reading of an ordinance giving the Anaheim property rate at $1.10 per $100 of assessment was conducted by city councilmen. Tax rate must be set by Councilmen, in sustainance present tax rate, said a issue must be approved by the near future to pay capital expenditures including water lines, street immeasures and power lines. If bond issue cannot be abolished, councilmen indicated it will be necessary to invoke a les tax and a higher tax. Pearson said the bond needed to pay for the immeasures undergoing development. These areas can't pay for improvements now, but will likely be able to do so. Will be no increase in the tax rate if a bond issue passed because the bonds paid off with the increase obtained from the national expansion of the city-owned water and power services. Was made clear that either inmates grow with the areas or the city simply lets inmates grow haphazardly. For to develop advantageously, adjacent areas must be suppressed, water, power and protection immediately upon into the community, councils.
