BLONG VIEWS
(From an Egg-Shaped Head)
BY WALDO HUNTER, P.S.B.
SEEMS TO me that the most littery man in the world today (with the possible exception of the head of steel production in Russia) would be the City of Fullerton's Fire Chief. Within the space of a few weeks Fullerton has had two of the most devastating fires in the history of Orange county.
Perhaps the Fullerton City Fathers and Chamber of Commerce are missing a bet. They could put big banners over Spadra road in the downtown section proclaiming: "Huge Shopping Event in Fullerton Friday. Big Fire Later!"
TUESDAY'S RESOUNDING approval of a $3,000,000 bond issue for the Anaheim Union High School District and the establishment of a $1.50 tax limit by Anaheim voters shows that the organized campaign against public education in Orange county, which has its tap-roots over in Santa Ana, is having success which could hardly be termed sensational.
The bond issue passed by a 4 to 1 majority. The tax increase passed 3 to 1. This shows that some 70 per cent of Anaheim's citizens are forward-looking enough to realize that the city's inexorable growth will be ever demanding of an increased school plant.
Anaheim Man Again to Oversee Farm Exhibits
A. H. Call of Anaheim again will supervise agricultural and feature exhibits at the 1955 Orange County Fair, Aug. 9-14, it was announced by Frank V. Crane, president of the 32nd District Agricultural association which sponsors the annual fair.
Call has been in charge of the main exhibit building and auxiliary tent since 1949. He began his work in Western Fairs in 1917 for Ventura county, and handled exhibits for that county until 1940. He has organized and supervised exhibits for local fairs in addition to installing displays at the State Fair in Sacramento and the National Orange Show at San Bernardino.
Other supervisors who have been appointed for the 1955 Fair include Ernest Norton of Santa Ana, art, hobbies and schools; Mrs. Earl K. Burdick of West Orange, home economics; Herman Ketchum of Yorba Linda, rabbits; C.K. Mulvey of Garden Grove, poultry; Mr. and Mrs. Harry Marrell of Garden Grove, horse show, and Velma Dunlap of Santa Ana, publicity.
Growers Should Attend Prorate Policy Meeting
"The extent to which citrus growers in California are interested in their own industry will be clearly demonstrated by the number of growers who attend the Valencia Orange Administrative Committee's marketing policy."
Prorate Policy To be Decided
The Valencia Orange Adminisstrative committee announced today that its marketing policy for 1954-55 season covering Valencia oranges grown in Southern California will be developed in open meeting Tuesday, April 12.
Valencia Orange Marketing Order 22 requires preparation by the committee and presentation to the secretary, United States Department of Agriculture, of its marketing policy prior to the inception of handling regulations.
The April 12 meeting will convene at 10 a.m., in the main auditorium of the Orange County Farm Bureau building, 1916 W Chapman Ave., Orange. Growers and handlers are urged to attend and assist the committee in development of its marketing policy.
Patrol Officer Says Watch Out For Children
Bring them up, don't run them down.
California Highway Patrol Commissioner B. R. Caldwell today offered this suggestion in urging parents and motorists to make extra effort to safeguard children from traffic.
Caldwell pointed out that one every six persons injured in California traffic last year was a child under 15 years of age, while one of every eleven traffic deaths came from this same age group.
"Amost 17,000 youngsters, aged 14 or under, were either killed or injured."
Growers Should Attend Prorate Policy Meeting
"The extent to which citrus growers in California are interested in their own industry will be clearly demonstrated by the number of growers who attend the Valencia Orange Administrative Committee's marketing policy meeting for the 1955 Southern California Valencia orange crop," stated Robbins Russell, general manager, Mutual Orange Distributors. He urged all growers, shippers and handlers of Valencia oranges in the southern district to attend this highly important session.
"The meeting will be held on Tuesday, April 12, in the Orange County Farm Bureau building, 1918 W. Chapman Ave., Orange, at 10:00 a.m. Purpose of the meeting is to adopt a marketing policy for disposition of the upcoming Valencia orange crop. By holding the meeting in a location central to the area in which the bulk of Valencia oranges is grown in the southern district, it is hoped that more growers will be on hand to express their views and make suggestions for committee consideration," he continued.
"It is of paramount importance that all factors in the industry be represented and that they actively participate in the discussion of the marketing policies to be adopted," Russell concluded.

No doubt they will have no trouble finding the church of their denomination; This is good. A society with strong church-going tendencies can not be put aside.

Anaheim youth will again have the opportunity of earning their way to Camp Osceola, according to John E. Bertch, general secretary of the Anaheim YMCA.

Last year more than 100 Anaheim boys earned their camp fees by selling soap. It has proved an easy item to sell as everyone is a prospect for this every day necessity.
The soap will be available on Saturday, April 9, which will enable youngsters to utilize their Easter vacation time by getting started on their camp project. Boys over 9 years of age and girls who will be in the 7th grade or over, next year are eligible to attend Camp Osceola.

EASTER WEEK IS GOOD IN ANAHEIM
GAZETTE
COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, APRIL 7, 1955. NO. 22
BOND ISSUE, TAX HIKE GET BIG MAJORITIES
In the biggest turnout of voters in the history of Anaheim H. S. district bond issue balloting, a $3,000,000 bond issue and school tax hike to a ceiling of $1.50 were approved Tuesday. On the bond issue, which required a two-thirds majority, the vote was 4054 yes, and 1417 no.
On the issue of the tax hike—3657 yes; 1417 no.
This paves the way for the High School board of trustees to start immediate plans for the construction of the third junior high school to be established in the AUHS district. The board announced last week that it had received approval from the State Department of School Planning in Sacramento for the school site.
In the opinion of the State Department, the site at the northwest corner of Crescent and Brookhurst is an appropriate location for the establishment of the third junior high school in keeping with the growth pattern of pupil population of the district.
This site was purchased by the high school district 10 years ago and has been used as a school farm. It originally included a total of 20 acres; however, eight-tenths of an acre has been sold to the State for use in connection with state support for Co. Schools.
State funds totaling $8,935,746 are already set up for the public school districts of Orange county as the "principal" apportionment for this year's operating costs—with added sums for growth and other purposes yet to come, California Taxpayers' association said today.
For last year, the principal apportionment to the schools in the county amounted to $7,693,878. Growth, special purpose, and other state support items brought the total to $8,912,030, an addition of about 15.8 per cent for 1953-54.
Final figures on state support of the schools in the county for
Michael's
Michael's Episcopal church corner of Adele and Emily will observe Maundy Day with Holy Communion at 4:35 a.m., and again at 7:15 according to the pastor, the John K. Saville.
Good Friday, a family service at 10 a.m., will feature color on the events of Holy Week. 12-3 o'clock will be the Last Words of Christ with speakers to be the Rev. E. Butterworth of White Methodist; the Rev. Wm. Holley Walker of Wesley Methvale; the Rev. Alexander McGee of Evangelical United Church; and the Rev. Arthur Johnson of First Presbyterian Music will be by the First Yesterian Triple Trio, Mrs. Lee Sloop, Jr. directing, and South Choir of White Temple District with Marvin Fennema singing.
Easter Sunday, Holy Community will be held at 6 a.m., sun-services. Duplicate choralists will be heard at 7 a.m.; 1:15 while duplicate family services will be held at 9 a.m. Children of the church take part in services with flower cross and mite boxes.
Life Temple
Rev. Frank E. Butterworth announced a Holy Week rule of events at White Temple Methodist church, 305 Eastway, as follows:
Sunday Thursday, 7:30 p.m.—The Choir presents Brahms' "lem" preceding annual Last Service (a real Gallilean nut's supper) served in the Worship Hall.
Good Friday, 12-3 p.m.—memorial invited to attend the All Union three hour Vigil of parment, the site at the northwest corner of Crescent and Brookhurst is an appropriate location for the establishment of the third junior high school in keeping with the growth pattern of pupil population of the district.
This site was purchased by the high school district 10 years ago and has been used as a school farm. It originally included a total of 20 acres; however, eight-tenths of an acre has been sold to the State for use in connection with the development of the Free-way overpasses.
Safe Approach
The new campus will be readily and safely available to students from the rapidly developing residential areas northwest of Anaheim, as overpasses are to be constructed at both La Palma and Brookhurst Avenues which will include pedestrian walks for students walking to school or riding bicycles. At no time will the students have to cross through the traffic of the Santa Ana Freeway.
Approval of this site means considerable financial saving to the district as it was purchased at a figure far below the present market value. It was also announced by the Board that in constructing the third junior high school considerable savings will be made in the architectural fees as a duplicate of the Western Junior High School plans will be used in the construction of the new school.
Lumber Dealers Plan Convention
Seven lumber dealers of Anaheim are planning to attend the 38th annual convention of the Southern California Retail Lumber association, April 12-14 in the Ambassador hotel, Los Angeles.
Slated for the Anaheim delegation are: Ernest Ganahl, and Harold Kahn, owners, Ernest Ganahl Lumber Co., Frank N. Gibbs, president; Oscar L. Gibbs, secretary, and G. F. Tavlor, purchasing Gibbs Lumber Co., 417 South Los Angeles St., Walter F. Taylor, president, Walt Taylor Lumber Co., 125 North Manchester Ave., and Larry Henderson, manager, Patten-Blinn Lumber Co., 1133 Lincoln Ave.
The local lumbermen will attend discussions on increases in construction costs and business failures, the trend in building, serve-yourself trade, the do-it-yourself market and the monetary situation as it affects business for this year's operating costs—with added sums for growth and other purposes yet to come, California Taxpayers' association said today.
For last year, the principal apportionment to the schools in the county amounted to $7,693,878. Growth, special purpose, and other state support items brought the total to $8,912,030, an addition of about 15.8 per cent for 1953-54.
Final figures on state support of the schools in the county for this year could be expected to go up in similar fashion, the association pointed out.
