HERE IS THE prize statement of the year, from an editorial in the Santa Ana Cash Register (Wednesday, July 1)— "Television producers aren't about to attempt to cram unwanted material down the throats of the viewing public which keeps them in business." I guess that particular editorial writer is the only person in the United States who hasn't seen and heard some of the TV commercials. And, speaking of television, we were talking the other day of how we think that medium is stultifying this rising generation of youngsters. They don't want to read any more, or use initiative in creating entertainment and diversions for themselves. They won't go out and engage in the traditional childhood games which we adults enjoyed. Any thing of this sort in these days must be "supervised" and the kids must be coached by some appointed official. They don't even know how to go out and get into some real old-age activities. Progress Report Shows Population Growth in County Population changes in Orange county were evident today when material gathered for the second quarterly supplement of the Orange County Progress Report showed that the total county population as of July 1, 1955 was 381,952. On April 1, 1940, Orange county's population was set officially at 131,000 and on April 1, 1950, the county's population was set officially at 216,224. The new population totals showed that cities accounted for 214,-193, the unincorporated areas for 167,759 for a grand total of 381,-952. The Orange County Progress Report's second quarterly supplement due to be published in April of 1955 promises to have additional evidence of the County's rapid growth. LeRoy E. Lyon Jr. Resigns Post As Assemblyman Assemblyman LeRoy E. Lyon Jr., who was elected to the State Assembly from the 75th district in 1952, filled his resignation with the Secretary of State effective.

DELAY-KOSS NUPTIALS SAT. A simple ceremony late last Saturday afternoon at Capilla de San Antonio united in marriages Miss Jeannette Koss, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Koss of 785 E. Orange Ave., Anaheim, and Gary DeLay, son of George R DeLay of Westminster, and Mr Leonard McLeod of Bellflower. The double ring ceremony was performed by the Rev. Berthold Jackstelt of Bethel Baptist church of this city, before an altar appointed with baskets of Beauty They don't want to read any more, or use initiative in creating entertainment and diversions for themselves. They won't go out and engage in the traditional childhood games which we adults enjoyed. Any thing of this sort in these days must be "supervised" and the kids must be coached by some appointed official. They don't even know how to go out and get into some real old-fashioned harmless mischief as we knew it. But they do know how to sprawl in front of the One-Eyed Monster, the glaring Cyclops, and absorb "entertainment" ranging from the asinine to the monstrous, with crime and violence given top billing. And they will even do this on sunny summer afternoons. Why, it used to be that the only way you could get a kid into the house on a summer day was to use either the lure of a cold slice of watermelon or the persuasion of a lariat. Do kids read books any more? Have they ever heard of Tom Sawyer? Huck Finn? John Silver? Johnny Appleseed? Gulliver? Ask one of them if he ever heard of "Treasure Island" and he will ask: "Is that out at Disneyland?" About the only reference I hear them make now to anything assimilated via the eyes and ears is: "O.K. You blow up the mine, and I'll meet you later at the pass." But then, we must not lose all hope. This rising generation may surprise us. Perhaps we tend to be too severe. Look at the mess the last two generations made of things. THERE HAS been some talk and publicity lately about a garden hose which just sort of dives into the ground and disappears. This makes sensational news stories, and has even been sent all over the nation on the wire news services. I can't get too shook up about it. Mine disappears every once in a while, but I generally find an answer to the mystery. I just check with the neighbor's kids. REGENTLY WE have heard several newcomers to our fair lo- LeRoy E. Lyon Jr. Resigns Post As Assemblyman Assemblyman LeRoy E. Lyon, Jr., who was elected to the State Assembly from the 75th district in 1952, filed his resignation with the Secretary of State effective July 1. He is to be general counsel for the California Railroad Association, a division of the American Association of Railroads. Lyon was re-elected for a second term in 1954, and his term was not to have expired until Dec. 31, 1956. The northern portion of Orange county thus will not have a representative in the budget session of the Legislature to be held in January -956 unless Gov. Goodwin Knight calls a special election to fill the post. It is anticipated there will not be a special election and a new member of the Assembly will be elected at the primary election to be held in June 1956. There will be a complete change in the Legislature for Orange county as Earl Stanley of Balboa, who has been representing the 74th district, has announced he will not be a candidate again. He is completing eight years in office. Senator John Murdy of Huntington Beach, elected to a four-year term in 1952, will be up for re-election in the 1956 primaries. Salvation Army In Appeal for More Clothing Stocks at the Salvation Army Social Service Center which serves this area have been seriously reduced by heavy demands for summer clothing and play equipment, according to Brigadier William J. Parkins, manager. Castoff articles contributed by local residents to the Salvation Army fill needs of less-fortunate families and also make possible a continued social rehabilitation program for needy and handicapped men who process the materials. The discards are collected by Saturday afternoon at Capilla de San Antonio united in marriage Miss Jeannette Koss, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Koss of 785 E. Orange Ave., Anaheim, and Gary DeLay, son of George H DeLay of Westminster, and Mr Leonard McLeod of Bellflower. The double ring ceremony was performed by the Rev. Bertholot Jacksteelt of Bethel Baptist church of this city, before an altar appointed with baskets of Beauty Blush gladioli and white stock Blush pink ribbon bows marked the bride's path as she approaches the altar with her father. The bride was gowned in walk-length rosepoint lace and layer of tulle over satin. The lace booze was sprinkled with seed pearls and sequins and the hem of the skirt in scallops. A tiara of rhinestones, seed pearls and sequins held the short veil and she carried a bride's bouquet of white roses and a white orchid. Nuptial songs, "Because" and "The Lord's Prayer," were sung by Charmeon Asher with Mrs. A F. Faust at the organ. The traditional wedding marches were played for the processional and recessional. Miss Elenore Fuchs, gowned coral nylon over taffeta wif matching mitts, headaddress and shoes, was maid of honor. Her bouquet was Queen Elizabeth roses. Miss Nancy Lee Cook of Gluewood, cousin of the bride, wif gowned similarly in aqua and carried Rosalind Russell roses. Little Miss Candace Lee of Santa Ana was flower girl and wif dressed in coral nylon over taffeta. Gregory Lee, her brother was ring bearer. Best man wif Richard Been of Westminster with William Stevens, Donna Rapp and Dale Koss, brother of the bride, the ushers.

The bride's mother, Mrs. Keegreted the guests in turquoise lace and crepe with pink a white accessories and a corses of blush pink roses. Mrs. DeLay stepmother of the bridgroom wore pink voile. The bridgroom mother, Mrs. McLeod was unable to attend. This makes sensational news stories, and has even been sent all over the nation on the wire news services. I can't get too shook up about it. Mine disappears every once in a while, but I generally find an answer to the mystery. I just check with the neighbor's kids. RECENTLY WE have heard several newcomers to our fair locality complain about lack of early morning sunshine. Seems they don't like that overcast of high fog which keeps Old Sol out of the picture until about 10 o'clock or so. That high strata of fog, we tell them, is a good deal. It keeps things from getting torrid by about noon. When you can see the sun at 6 a.m., watch out for a day of desert heat, especially in August and September. Mariam Caracasco Weds F. Randazzo Wearing beautiful diamond and pearl drop earrings that once belonged to her great, great, great-grandmother, and a gown of nylon lace and tulle, Miss Mariam Caracasco became the bride of John Frank Randazzo in St. Boniface Catholic church. She is a native of Mexico and has been making her home with Mr. and Mrs. Warren L. Ashleigh at 809 N. Clementine St. The bridegroom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Vincent Randazzo of Long Beach and New York. Father Peterson officiated at the double ring ceremony. Bridal attendants were Miss Mary Randazzo, Miss Florence Kocevar, Miss Betty Erwin, Miss Hilda Erwin and Miss Ursula Schmitz. Miss Patty Lou Osborn was flower girl. Castoff articles contributed by local residents to the Salvation Army fill needs of less-fortunate families and also make possible a continued social rehabilitation program for needy and handicapped men who process the materials. The discards are collected by Red Shield trucks and reconditioned in the big center's workshops. All receipts from sale of the articles in Salvation Army Thrift Stores are used to provide food, shelter and financial aid for hundreds of men who call upon the center for aid. The local center is one of 14 in the state which have a work therapy program for thousands of men. "The Salvation Army is celebrating its 75th birthday in the United States and more than 50 years of service in California," Brigadier Parkins said. "It motto, 'with heart to God and hand to man,' still characterizes this service." Brigadier Parkins said that in addition to men's, women's and children's summer wearing apparel and play equipment, the local center urgently needs all kinds of salvage materials which can be re-used. These include furniture, shoes, dishes, mattresses, bedding, kitchen utensils, home appliances, silverware, stoves, radios, and bric-a-brac. He urged local residents to telephone KEystone 5-4631 to bring a Red Shield truck. Mr. and Mrs. John Clasen and Miss Martha Lueders, all of this city, have returned from a two-week vacation trip to Lake Tahoe and the Columbia River in Oregon. 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, AY-KOSS PTIALS SAT.
