OBLONG VIEWS
(From an Egg-Shaped Head)
By WALDO HUNTER, P.S.B.
Well, we see by the news dispatches that the Republicans of Orange county are going to toss a big banquet down at the Balboa Bay club on Oct. 1 featuring Rep. Charles Halleck of Indiana as the main speaker. They are going to charge $50 a plate.
Gad! Have food prices gone up to that level?
Mochitsura Hashimoto, one of only four Japanese submarine commanders to survive World War II, reveals the inside story of the Japanese submarine campaign of 1941 to 1945 in SUNK, scheduled for publication by Henry Holt and Company on Sept. 27. Distinguished by a full introduction by Commander Edward L. Beach, USN, author of SUBMARINE!, it gives a remarkable picture of Japanese psychology through the eyes of a man who fought for the Emperor.
Veterans of the Southwest Pacific campaign will probably show more than passive interest in this forthcoming book. Although the danger of torpedoing was always present (especially in regard to troop transports) we never really gave it much thought until that last night on the way back to the good old U.S.A. Just 24 hours out of San Francisco after three years "down under."
With home, security and a return to saneness within our grasp, and with the knowledge that Jap submarines prowled the converging sea lanes off Frisco, we felt sure that in these last few hours we would get it.
However, the return was as unanticipated.
High School Board Alters Policy on Transportation
The Anaheim Union High School Board has revised a previous policy on transportation for students.
In a special session this week the group altered transportation rules to permit students living inside the two-mile limit for bus transportation to walk back to the nearest scheduled bus stop at or beyond the two-mile limit from school to catch the bus if they desire.
Previously, anyone living within two miles of the school they attended in the district had to walk to school even if they were only a half-mile from the bus stop.
This policy had caused considerable protest, especially from parents of students along Lincoln Avenue. The parents complained that their children were forced to walk along a dangerous road which has no sidewalks and is heavily traveled by fast tractors.
Going to either Fremont J. High of the high school they had to cross Manchester Avenue of the county's busiest thoroughfares.
The board also ruled that dents in the area of Walnut South streets where a bus is made to pick up a physical handicapped student, may waive that stop and board the bus—removing the necessity of cross Manchester.
School officials indicated the new schedule may make necessary the use of two or busses which are not used ex in an emergency.

Man Slays Daughter, Kills Self
Jose Escarsega, 40, fired two shots at his 15-year-old daughter, Delores, wounding her fatally, then turned his old model revolver on himself and committed suicide in his West Anaheim home, Sheriff's deputies announced.
Other members of the family said the father and daughter were arguing in the kitchen before the shooting. Another daughter, Antonia, 14, watched horrified as her father got his 38-caliber gun and fired almost point-blank at Delores, the shot striking her in the right chest and abdomen. Then he wounded himself in the chest with a third shot. He was dead on arrival at Orange County General hospital. The daughter died two hours later.
The shooting orphaned the five other children. Deputies Jack Baker and Jack Whittington reported the shooting appeared to be a spur of the moment act as there had been no noticeable trouble before.
State Receives Oil Revenues
A treasury voucher for more than $22,000,000 representing revenues the federal government has collected and impounded from operators in California offshore oil lands during much of the past 7 years.
Adult Education Industrial School Classes Popular
Adult education classes at A.H.S. are rapidly filling up report Oscar Schultz, chairman of the Anaheim Area Industrial Group which sponsors the classes in operation with the high school. All the instructors are men working in local industries.
According to Doug Small, chairman of the school advisory committee, and superintendent of the tool and die plant at Kwik Locks, the courses are designed to be of interest not only to people presently employed in industrial shops but also to men and women not now employed in non-industrial jobs.
Subjects being taught were selected by the Anaheim Area Industrial Group following a survey among the large and small industries in Orange county to determine the skills most sought by industry.
Men and women wanting to take the courses may register by attending a meeting of the class which they are interested. The only cost is $1.00 registration fee. Classes are held at the high school 800 W. Center. Classes will run until June 1955.

State Receives Oil Revenues
A treasury voucher for more than $22,000,000 representing revenues the federal government has collected and impounded from operators in California offshore oil lands during much of the past 7 years will be delivered to California authorities within a few days, federal officials have informed the office of Senator Thomas H. Kuchel.
Senator Kuchel has been seeking release of the oil royalties for more than a year and presentation of the check will wind up one phase of the federal-state dispute about control of so-called tidelands petroleum reserves.
After weeks of discussion by Kuchel, his staff, and officials of three U.S. agencies, the Treasury department this week finally was directed to draw the voucher which state officials have been expecting ever since Congress in May 1953 passed the submerged lands act upsetting the 1947 "Paramount Powers" decision of the Supreme Court in the offshore oil lands dispute.
Kwikset Declares Regular Dividend
The Board of Directors of Kwikset Locks, Inc., Anaheim, at a meeting held Sept. 20, declared a dividend of 25 cents per share on the common stock of record Sept. 30, 1954, payable Oct. 15, 1954.

St. Jude officials said "the more contributions we receive, the better the hospital since every cent received from the public goes directly into hospital buildings and construction early next month on 122-bed hospital on the Sun Hills, Fullerton, 17-acre site.
The Sisters of St. Joseph, successful operators of hospitals several cities of California, manage the St. Jude hospital.

Anaheim Y-Day In Hollywood Set For October 16
As preparations for the Anaheim YMCA's Y-Day in Hollywood rolled into high gear this week, General Secretary John Bertch announced that parents are being urged to make the all-day program in the film capital a family affair.
"With the big variety show in Hollywood Bowl, sponsored by Hollywood Ad Club, in the morning, lunch and the UCLA-Stanford football game in the afternoon at Memorial Coliseum, there will be plenty of entertainment for the whole family," Bertch said.
Star of the Oct. 16 event will be Art Linkletter, popular master of ceremonies who is celebrating his seventh year as Y-Day's headman. More than 10,000 YMCAers from California, Arizona and Nevada will be on hand for Y-Day, which is the biggest single event in the world.
"The variety show, which is produced by the Hollywood Advertising club, is shaping up and we expect announcement of additional name stars who will entertain any time now," Bertch said. He added that entries are still open for the talent show and essay competition and information may be obtained at the "Y."
60,000 Expected at Pitt - SC Game
A famous football rivalry that started in the Rose Bowl in 1930 will be resumed Friday night when the University of Pittsburgh and the University of Southern California meet in the Coliseum before an expected crowd of 60,000.
It will be the season opener for the Northern suburbs.
Stonehouse said new residents, as well as individuals, groups and business firms who were unable to contribute during the fund raising campaign, may donate to the constructing and furnishing of the hospital by sending contributions to "St Jude Hospital, Post Office Box 94, Fullerton, Calif."
St. Jude officials said "the more contributions we receive, better the hospital since every cent received from the public goes directly into hospital buildings and equipment."
The hospital plant was originally planned for a maximum of 100 beds. However, because of the generous response for funds from the public, the government, and the Sisters of St. Joseph, the planners are able to begin con-
Hallowe'en Festival Plans Shaping Up, Says Cromer
Anaheim's 1954 Hallowe'en Festival is "coming along in wonderful shape" is the report Clyde Cromer gave to the board of directors of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce this week. Cromer is general chairman of the festival.
He said the giant parade which will climax the 31st annual festival on Oct. 30 is "ahead of schedule." As soon as a few more entries are assigned to the divisions, the parade committee headed by Oscar Schultz and Harold Smith will work on filling in stunts and marching groups, and refining the order of march.
Parade officials are preparing a parade which they are hopeful will attract more than 150,000 spectators. Within a few days Cromer is expected to complete the assignment of Anaheimers to the more than 100 jobs which are necessary for the planning and administering the several events of the community celebration. Theme of this year's festival is "Legends and Fantasies."
The chairmen of the various events were selected by Cromer and co-chairman Bob Wurgaft several weeks ago. Cromer announced their work has progressed to the point where it "now becomes necessary to provide the manpower to carry out the 1000 & 1 details."
Miss Hallowe'en Ball
The opening event of the colorful festival will be the Miss Hallowe'en ball and contest, slated for the evening of Oct. 9. Wayne Andrade is chairman of the event assisted by Mrs. Samuel Gendel, hostess.

60,000 Expected at Pitt - SC Game
A famous football rivalry that started in the Rose Bowl in 1930 will be resumed Friday night when the University of Pittsburgh and the University of Southern California meet in the Coliseum before an expected crowd of 60,000.
It will be the season opener for the Panthers, who probably have their best team in 20 years. A big line that averages 212 pounds, spearheaded by All-American Eldred Kraemen, is expected to be one of the nation's most unmanageable, for the opposition.
Not only would the Panthers like to get revenge for the 47-14 and 35-0 lickings the Trojans handed them in the 1930 and 1944 Rose Bowl games, but Pitt coach Red Dawson remembers only too well the 1932 New Year's game when the Tulane team quarterbacked went down before SC's Thundering Herd, 21-12. The SC-Pitt series now stands at two wins apiece.

Senator Answers Opponent's Slur
Senator Thomas H. Kuchel today issued the following statement after he was informed that his opponent had written a letter regarding the Senator's military service:
"Only a despicable mind would call in question honorable military service. The simple facts are that in my desire to serve my country in time of war, I voluntarily waived my immunity as a State legislator, and was accepted by the Navy for active duty. While I did not pass my eye examination, that part of the Navy physical requirement was waived at my request.
"I have never impugned the military service of any man who in whatever capacity served his country. Any person who would stoop so low should be regarded as a scoundrel.
"I refuse now, as I have refused in the past, to dignify Mr. Yor-y's irresponsible conduct by associating with him in any fashion.
"I shall continue to campaign for retention in the United States Senate on the basis of what I have accomplished for California and what I have voted for."
