Anaheim Centennial Celebration Program Is Full Week of Activities, Starts Sun. Final preparations for a full week of activities for the Anaheim Centennial Celebration have been completed and all is in readiness for the event. Starting Friday evening, Sept. 6th the celebration marks one of the most important events in the history of Anaheim, set to commemorate 100 years of growth for this city, experiencing good times, adverse times and ending the century with a boom-like growth in population until today it boasts a population of probably 75,000 persons. The Centennial Queen’s Coronation Ball will be held tomorrow, Friday evening at Disneyland Hotel, on the second floor, with a top dance orchestra to play from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. At this time the Centennial Queen will be crowned and she will reign over the full week of festivities, beginning on Sunday, Sept. 8, and running through Friday, Sept. 13.

The new license laws will place first-time licensees on a three-year term. If they maintain good records their licenses may become eligible for five-year renewal. If their records show two or more traffic violations in the case of operators, or four or more in the case of chauffeurs, they may receive renewals for probationary two-year terms only. Failure to renew within 30 days of the expiration date of any license results in limitation of renewal to the three-year period, similar to an original or first-time license. The commission of any felony in which a motor vehicle is involved is grounds for limiting the renewal to two years. These terms for drivers’ licenses are also to be tied in with a L. A. County Fair Biggest Event Presented to Date Announcement by President-Manager C. B. Afflerbaugh that the 30th annual Los Angeles County Fair in Pomona, Sept. 13-29, is in reality, 20 exhibitions combined into one notable exhibition, gives an idea of the magnitude to which the event has grown in its endeavor to adequately reflect the unprecedented agricultural, industrial and cultural growth of the southland.

The Director cited as another improvement the new provision requiring that operators licenses be specially endorsed to permit driving of motor vehicles weighing more than 12,000 pounds, or driving any motor vehicle towing another vehicle weighing more than 6,000 pounds. Another new law will require applicants for drivers' licenses to demonstrate ability to read and understand the simple English used in highway traffic control and directional signs. He also commended the legislative enactment of a law requiring that a photograph of the licensee be shown on the face of the license. Motor Vehicle legislation this year made an important acknowledgement of the heavier responsibility every motorist must carry for meeting the cost of damages in highway accidents by amending the Financial Responsibility laws. Liability requirement limits are increased from the existing $5,000-$10,000-$1,000 minimums to $10,000-$20,000-$5,000, respectively. These new limits generally become operative on July 1, 1959.

A E. Hargrove passes away A E. Hargrove passed away home at 10742 Highway following an extended illness. Was born in Louisiana 69 ago and had been a resident of Anaheim since 1919.

Hargrove or the home; daughters, Mrs. Helen of Silverado, Mrs. Berenceau of Fullerton, and Mrs. Lyn Schuler of Buena Park; sons, Alva O. Hargrove of Anaheim, and Phillip E. Hargrove of View, and nine grandchildren. Mason reminded persons affected by the caravan laws, regulating the movement of vehicles for sale, that the caravaning provisions of the Vehicle Code have been repealed effective Dec. 31, 1957. "These laws are still in effect for the remaining months this year," he pointed out. California residents serving in the armed forces will be extended the same auto registration exemption privilege as that presently accorded non-resident military personnel, under terms of a new law passed at the 1957 regular session of the State Legislature, also effective Sept. 11. Director Mason explained that in the past, a Californian serving in the armed forces outside California was placed at a disadvantage upon being transferred to duty in his home state, in that any vehicle he might have owned and registered in another state was subject to registration immediately upon arrival here. The old law in this respect, Mason said, made no distinction between the civilian resident and the serviceman whose legal residence was in California, but required current vehicle registration by both while residing in the state.

The area is located near the Anaheim Village subdivision. The long and hotly contested battle lasted for one and a half hours with the Council deciding to make a thorough study of the area from Lincoln Avenue south to Ball Road and from the railroad tracks west to Euclid Avenue. It was pointed out that a $5.5 million investment has already been made in Anaheim Village in which there are now 227 families with a total of 581 children. Some 93 more families are expected to arrive upon completion of the development, which will have an additional estimated 230 children. It was further pointed out that since the first of the year, 16 traffic accidents involving chil-den under 14 years of age had been injured in accidents and that with the manufacturing zone being permitted, it would further endanger the lives of its young citizens. The Walker and Lee, Inc. subdividers, submitted a variance to erect a dry cleaning plant and quick service family shirt laundry on Brookhurst Avenue between Ball Road and Orange Avenue, but due to the protests of residents of the Sherwood Forest area, the Council denied the request. Clyde A. Finley met defeat from the Council when he requested permission to use property at the northwest corner of Ball Road and Western Avenue as an auto repair shop and residence. Residents of the area felt this was not the type of business for a well established residential area.

They will, however, Trucks Under New Speed Law — HP A major change in the truck speed law effective Sept. 11, should be reviewed by all truck operators, says the California Highway Patrol. "The new speed law for trucks was passed by the 1957 State Legislature and becomes a part of the California Vehicle Code in September," declared Patrol Commissioner B. R. Caldwell. "It reads as follows: 'Any motor truck or truck tractor having three or more axles or any motor truck or tractor with any trailer or semi-trailer, or any combination thereof, shall not be driven on any highway at a speed in excess of 45 miles per hour. This section does not include any bus having three or more axles.'" "Analysis of 1956 data reveals that, of all commercial vehicle operators deemed at fault in traffic accidents in unincorporated areas, 28 per cent were in violation of speed laws," Caldwell stated. "The California Highway Patrol is beginning an extensive information program designed to bring this and other new laws to the attention of the general public." "Full enforcement emphasis will be applied to the new truck speed law," he concluded. Rabbit Breeders to Meet Saturday Eve. The state Rabbit Section of the California Farm Bureau Federation will meet on Saturday evening, Sept. 7, at 8 p.m. in the Farm Bureau Hall, 1916 W. Chapman, Orange. The meeting will be called to order by chairman R. A. Schott of Riverside and his first order auto repair shop and residence. Residents of the area felt this was not the type of business for a well established residential area. Residents in the area between Ball Road and Euclid Avenue appeared at the Council meeting to protest the request of Doyle and Shields for a 49 lane bowling alley, which will also have a billiard room, cocktail lounge, restaurant and coffee shop. The proposed installation was to be on the north side of Ball Road. Residents stated that since Ball Road is too narrow for the increased traffic, they deemed it too hazardous for this type of business. There is also a new church across the street from the proposed buildings and a school nearby. The request was denied by the Council. The Northeast Annexation is back in the news again. The lawsuit aimed at the annexation of property near Placentia was delayed the middle of the week. Plaintiffs in the case are the City of Placentia and in another case, Robert L. Angle of 6741 Miller St., Placentia, who have soled forces in the suit against the City of Anaheim. The case was postponed until Sept. 13 in accordance with an agreement by both plaintiffs and the defendant. According to the suits brought by Angle and the City of Placentia, illegal procedures have been taken by Anaheim's City Council in attempting to annex the land in question. They claim the proposed annexation includes land that is zoned for agriculture and was included without the permission of the owners. Another point of contention is a Placentia-proposed annexation which includes part of the land in the proposed Anaheim annexation. Jurisdiction over that land will be another matter which the court must decide. Meanwhile, the City of Anaheim has been restrained from taking further action toward annexing the contested land until the matter is settled in the court.
