OBLONG VIEWS
(From an Egg-Shaped Head)
BY WALDO HUNTER, P.S.B.
It is a dark, mysterious night.
The scene is in a remote spot up in the Verdugo hills, and the activity is as strange as the setting. A crew of men sweats and strains to push a nice-looking automobile of about 1949 vintage to the rim of a small canyon.
The operation is directed by a sinister character wearing a flashy suit, a crushed felt hat and a loud four-in-hand. He holds a flashlight and barks orders.
At length the automobile teeters on the rim. There is an expectant hush. At a word from the sinister one, the men expend one last mighty effort and with a great rumbling and clattering and banging, the automobile somersaults down the steep, rock-strewn slope with hubcaps, glass and tin flying, and the agonized screech of metal grinding against metal rending the air.
The battered hulk finally comes to rest, and led by the sinister one, the men run down the slope to examine the wreck.
The sinister one flashes his light over the heap and regards it critically. Finally he speaks:
"Good job, men. Yank it out of here and slap a coat of paint on her. She's ready for the Los Angeles used car market."

Guests Shown Pre-Motor Production
A preview of the many types of electrical motors to be manufactured in Orange county was presented last Saturday at the U. S. Electrical Motor's huge Los Angeles plant. Guests of honor were Charles A. Pearson, Anaheim mayor and other county dignitaries including E. W. Moeller, Anaheim Chamber-ofCommerce secretary; Clyde H. Cromer, Anaheim chairman of industrial divisions and Robert L. Clark, chairman of Fullerton's industrial relations committee.
President George T.Pfleger and Thomas 'G.' Myers, vice-president of U. S. Electrical Motors Inc., conducted the honored guest through the plant and the executive staff of the concern demonstrated to more than 3000 guests the intricacies of manufacture and the workings of motors.
All day long the employees of U. S. Motors operated as a "normal" day to show visitors how motors are built Displays presented variable speed, internally gear-ed, fixed speed, explosion proof irrigation and aircraft motors in sizes ranbing from 1/15 horsepower to the giant 500 horsepower vertical irrigation motor.

Members of the Gazette staff were in attendance Friday night at a performance of "The Sidewalks of New York," currently playing at the new Birdcage theatre at Knott's Berry Farm. It was press night at the theatre, with newsmen from Los Angeles and Orange counties being regaled with, first an uncommon chicken dinner, and later an evening of unusual entertainment.
This theatre, now under canvas, will later be housed in a building modeled after the original Birdcage theater in Tombstone, Arizona, where the immortal Lily Langtree scored her greatest triumphs.
Cleaving to the theme of that genuine old-fashioned melodrama, the play is suggestive of "The Drunkard," Los Angeles' perennial favorite. Fact is, leading man of this play also played the lead in "The Drunkard" for 10 years. After the final curtain, vaudeville acts give the audience additional sparkling entertainment, including community singing and the wit of George Stuart, who has also emceed "The Drunkard."
Catherine Coleman's production of the play leaves nothing to be desired.
Mr. and Mrs. Knott here again show their prescience in unerringly choosing a permanent attraction to their fabulous establishment which has instantly proved a hit and which will become one of the Farm's prime drawing cards.
After the show Friday night, the entire audience was invited to Ghost Town's Calico Saloon, where we all proceeded to booeried to the gills on Boysenberry juice.
This columnist was taken to task by a local energetic and successful and eminently honest real estate woman for remarks we made in a recent column blaming all realtors for the shady operations of a few miscreants.
The scolding was justified, and we must admit that no broad professional group should be castigated for the misdeeds of a minority of their group.
But they COULD clean house.
Well, here we are again in the
Jr. League Group Hears Clinic Talk
The dental clinic at work for needy children at the Orange County hospital was the principal subject of the recent meeting of the Anaheim Junior Assistance League was held at the Ernest Ganahl home, 501 N.

Sen. Kuchel Tours County on Friday
U. S. Senator Thomas H. Kuchel will tour the industries of his home county Friday, and be speaker at a combined meeting of Anaheim service clubs that day.
His talk will be at Anaheim Elks Clubhouse, and will be open to the public, it was announced by President Bill Walker of the sponsoring Anaheim Lions Club.
His tour is being arranged by Mrs. Hildred Ferrell of Anaheim and Robert C. Mize of Santa Ana; Robert B. Wurgaft of Anaheim, finance chairman on the committee Mrs. Ferrell and Mize head; and Gordon X. Richmond of Orange and Tom Gowen of Fullerton, committeemen.
Most of the industries haven't been seen by Kuchel since his long absence as a public official, late as State Controller and now as U. S. Senator. Prior to that, he was Assemblyman and then State Senator. His public career was interrupted only by U. S. Navy Sergeant.
All day long the employees of U. S. Motors operated as a "normal" day to show visitors how motors are built Displays presented variable speed, internally gear-ed, fixed speed, explosion proof irrigation and aircraft motors in sizes ranbing from 1/15 horsepower to the giant 500 horsepower vertical irrigation motor.
These products will eventually be manufactured in Orange county at the 87-acre U. S. Motors' multi-million dollar plant now under construction on Santa Ana Freeway between Buena Park and Anaheim. The local plant is expected to be in operation by next December.
This will be the largest electrical motor plant in the west to employ thousands of skilled workers when it gets under full production. The first unit to occupy the local plant will be the Defense Products Division to be devoted exclusively to the production of fine aircraft motors for operating components of airplanes, both military and civilian. Later, construction of additional buildings will house the technical, engineering and multi-manufacturing units capable of producing several thousand motors per day for shipment throughout the world.

Well, here we are again in the delightful thralldom of another World Series. If a foreign enemy chose to strike us at a time like this, our nation would be helpless to shift its interest from the ball game to anything so trivial as an invasion.
Ask your average American who is the most formidable man on the world scene today and he will probably answer: "Dusty Rhodes."
My granddad was, by modern standards, old-fashioned. But I'll bet he had a good formula for curbing this frightening thing we call juvenile delinquency. First, he would whale the stuffing out of any of his kids who addressed an elder by his first name, ditto if his kid didn't remove his headgear while addressing a woman, or passing her on the street, and the same if his kid didn't say "yes sir" or "no sir" when talking to elders. I think granddad had something there. I remember walking up to him and yanking a pencil out of his vest pocket. I couldn't sit down to write for a week.
How can youngsters have any respect for themselves if they have none for elders?
Though For the Week: Why do they call 'em "Freeways" when they cost an average of $5,000,000 a mile?
Robert B. Wurgaft of Anaheim, finance chairman on the committee Mrs. Ferrell and Mize head; and Gordon X. Richmond of Orange and Tom Gowen of Fullerton, committeemen.
Most of the industries haven't been seen by Kuchel since his long absence as a public official, laterly as State Controller and now as U. S. Senator. Prior to that, he was Assemblyman and then State Senator. His public career was interrupted only by U. S. Navy Service in War II.
Congratulations are in order for Mr. and Mrs. Henry C. Bryant of 317 E. Valencia street, on becoming the parents of a 7 lb. daughter in St. Joseph hospital on Sept. 25.

Old fashioned melodrama and olof of a vintage long gone but not forgotten is being hilariously revived at Knott's Berry Farm at the "Birdcage Theater." The current show entitled "Streets of New York" brings into being a dream of Walter and Cordelia Knott to have a permanent theater on the farm grounds. The building itself will eventually be a faithful re-creation of the Birdcage Theater in Tombstone, Ariz., where the re-nowned "Jersey Lily," (Lily Langtry) performed in the 1880's.
The professional cast of "Sidewalks of New York" is headed by Woodie Wilson, leading man of "The Drunkard" in Los Angeles for 10 years. Hissing and cheering greet the appearance of the villain, Gideon Bloodgood, the heroine, Lucy Fairweather, and comedy character, Badge. The play unfolds in eight acts which bear such descriptive titles as "Thieft Robber!" "$50,000 or Death! Oh Dreadful Thing!" "Stars and Bottles, What a Happy Scene!"
The first act occurs during the commercial panic of 1837 while the remainder of the drama takes place during the panic of 1857.
George Stuart, master of ceremonies of "The Drunkard" fame introduces the vaudeville and music which follows. His iniminable intimate style brings the audience into the acts and continually tickles the funny bone. The impromptu singing of old time favorites puts the final touches to an unforgettable evening.
Two performance nightly except Monday and Tuesday, and matinees on Saturday and Sunday offer good, clean fun for the whole family.

Elementary Board Okays School Expansion Program
In an effort to keep pace with the rapid growth of the community, the Anaheim Elementary School Board has decided to embark on a building program that will see the construction of 67 new classrooms by September of 1955.
First of the moves to provide additional space came Tuesday when the board approved purchase of a 10-acre site on Palm Lane just south of Ball Road. A 10-classroom school will be built there.
The land was purchased from Ralph W. Dickenson, 9471 S. Loara Road, for $45,000. The school board will take the orange crop and Dickenson will take the two-story house and a garage on the property.
At present the board is negotiating for a site at an unrevealed location on W. La Palma.
As soon as the bonds, approved last June 16 by voters, are sold, the board hopes to begin building on land on which it holds an option at Vermont St. and Placentia Ave. The land is now used by the Anaheim Riding club.
In addition to the above, the board plans expansions at several other schools.
A survey by Paul W. Cook, superintendent, revealed that 2452 homes are now under construction in the district, making a potential enrollment increase of 1786 children by next year. An estimated 5395 homes are proposed, but not yet in the building stage.
