Garden Grove Votes for Incorporation Tuesday Grady Travis of Buena Park Files Supervisor’s Post Grady Travis, president of the Orange County League of Cities and Buena Park mayor announced today that he will campaign vigorously for the Board of Supervisors in District 3. Travis was the first to file for the county office. A resident of Orange County for 40 years, Travis has long worked as a civic leader here. He was a director for Orange County Water District No. 2 before being elected to the Buena Park City Council. He was named the first mayor of Buena Park and subsequently was re-elected to the council and again named mayor. After serving a term as vice-president he was elected president of the League of Cities, a position he now holds. During the war, Travis served four years as flight instructor in the Army Air Corps. Travis said his experience on the city council and League of Cities has prepared him for the position on the Board of Supervisors. For years he has worked with and close to the board and citizens of Garden Grove voted by a 5 to 2 margin for incorporation last Tuesday when the election brought to a dramatic close, the fight that has been waged by the pro-and con-incorporationists for a long while. Even though the majority was overwhelmingly in favor of incorporation, the final passage may be held up another two years because of a lawsuit filed long before the incorporation issue came to vote. The opposition filled the injunction claiming that bringing the issue before the people for the second time in less than a year is illegal and that the manner in which signatures to petitions were secured and certified by mail allegedly constitute fraud. The latter issue has been bitterly fought by the incorporationists. The only precinct, at the last report, voting against the measure was precinct 3 located on the southeast fringe of the new city’s boundary. They voted 133 for - 143 against, only ten votes difference. If the state’s courts give approval to the pending lawsuit, Sun Garden will become a part of Garden Grove. Many residents of this area also fought against the incorporation move by Garden Grove citizens. The opposing factions are not bitter over the election but they have not given up hope of winning their pending suit. As stated by Len S. Brown, “the vote has not Albert R. Collins, merchandise manager of Thriftimart, was honored recently as one of the nation's outstanding food store class 1, merchants in Brand Name Foundation's eighth annual Brand Name Retailer-of-the-Year competition. The award was made at the brand names day dinner in the Grand Ballroom of the Waldo-Fastoria Hotel, New York, before an overflow audience of 1,700 key figures in government, industry and retailing. Mr. Collins received a Certificate of Distinction for third place honors in the food store class 1, category for his accomplishments in presenting manfacturers' advertised brands to the public during 1955. The Brand Name Retailer-of-the-Year awards were presented to 120 outstanding merchants in 24 categories of retailing. The 120 award-winning retailers came from 88 cities in 36 states and the District of Columbia. Philharmonic Announces Two Concerts This Area Announcement of the musical selections to be offered by the Orange County Philharmonic Society orchestra at the twin Symphonies for Youth in Costa Mesa and Anaheim on April 21, and the adult After serving a term as vice-president he was elected president of the League of Cities, a position he now holds. During the war, Travis served four years as flight instructor in the Army Air Corps. Travis said his experience on the city council and League of Cities has prepared him for the position on the Board of Supervisors. For years he has worked with and close to the board and understands their problems. Travis said he would operate on the board as he has in the city with the theory that taxes are necessary, but tax money should be spent efficiently. He proved that a governmental body can get more for its money in Buena Park where the council operated for the first year with virtually no funds. Yet the city is the fastest growing in the county. Among the accomplishments in Buena Park, as listed by the Buena Park News recently, was the acquiring of Metropolitan water for Buena Park. A water distribution system was installed for new subdivision area at absolutely no cost to the city. A $250,000 flood control development needed for years under county rule was provided and miles of sewer mains with pumping stations in south Buena Park were obtained without incurring a cent of bonded indebtedness. These accomplishments were worked out in the midst of growth and expansion that are setting records in the state. If the state's courts give approval to the pending lawsuit, Sun Garden will become a part of Garden Grove. Many residents of this area also fought against the incorporation move by Garden Grove citizens. The opposing factions are not bitter over the election but they have not given up hope of winning their pending suit. As stated by Len S. Brown, "the vote has not made the issue legal. If we did not have just grounds for a lawsuit the presiding judge would not have granted us the injunction". Raymond Vincent, attorney for the opposition, stated Tuesday evening "inasmuch as incorporation has carried, the case will go to court, to the state supreme court if necessary, in early June". He further stated they were not bitter over the fact that the Garden Grove press "refused" to give them space to present their "side of the argument to the people". The reason the incorporation was permitted by opposing factions was due to the court calendar which would not permit a hearing on the legality of the election until after Tuesday's election date. At the same time the citizens were voting to make their community an incorporated city, they were asked to elect a slate of city councilmen. These were H. Louis Lake, who is owner of a lumber company; George Honold, a mortician; Kenneth Dungan, business manager for the Garden Grove High School and a resident for 45 years; Henry Blades, an appliance dealer, and R. D. (Pat-Elliott, developer of Garden Square. Harold Wahlberg To Show Slides Of Work in Europe Harold E.

April 23—1881 Many people living along public roads indulge in the pernicious habit of staking their horses or cows near such roads, and so close as to permit the animal staked to cross the road and eat the succulent grass growing on the road side opposite the stake, for no horse or cow ever failed to avail themselves of the privilege of going to the utmost limit of their tethers, as they evidently firmly believe that the grass growing there is sweeter than that growing near the stake. Now this practice of staking animals near a public road is a very dangerous one and is unlawful also. A number of serious accidents have resulted lately. A few days ago a gentleman driving along the road between this city and Santa Ana, a little after dark, when near the S.P. bridge encountered one of these stretched ropes, which overturned the buggy, threw the gentleman, wife and child out, caused the horses to run away, wrecking the buggy and seriously injuring one of the horses. This gentleman has brought a suit for damages against the party who staked the horse so as to obstruct the roads. Let this be a warning to all to desist from this obnoxious practice. Mr. T. P. Hinde is in correspondence with the proprietor of a Swiss-Italian colony and hopes to induce them to settle near Anaheim. To the request for authentic information regarding Anaheim, Mr. Hinde has forwarded him copies of the Gazette which contain descriptive articles. H. Werder has favored us with a couple of fine looking seedling oranges, each measuring thirteen inches in circumference. These grew on trees raised by Mr. Werder from the seed and in size, appearance surpass the average budded rfuit. The Fabri Opera troupe may visit Anaheim next week.

No. 46 Final Count of Absentee Ballots; Coons Wins Post At the City Council meeting last Tuesday evening the thirty-one absentee ballots were opened and canvassed and at the final tally, the records show that Rex Coons won by a margin of two votes.
