THE EXTRA COLUMN (By Frank Hall) THE FIRST thing you should do this week is go out and buy a Mother's Day card. And mail it right away. Mother won't believe all the nice things the card says about her but, at least, she'll know you remembered her, and that will make her feel good. MOTHERS don't get old like they used to do. Take Whistler's Mother, for instance: I know a lot of grandmothers right here in Anaheim that don't look as old as his mother. And I doubt if you could find a rocking chair in ten Anaheim homes. GRANT MUSICK and I rode around town in a new Simca. They tell me Simca gets enough gas to go five miles on by just breathing deeply of the fumes as it passes a gas station. WE DROVE up to one of Marshall N. McFie's curb mail boxes and I tried to mail a letter from the Simca. Darned near had to have it jacked up to reach the box. What Postmaster McFie should do is cut a lower slot for Simca driveway.

McFie's curb mail boxes and I tried to mail a letter from the Simca. Darned near had to have it jacked up to reach the box. What Postmaster McFie should do is cut a lower slot for Simca drivers. Something like the "little Gentleman" door push on the Disneyland Hotel rest room door. I STOPPED by the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce office and talked with Ila and Marie. Busy as those girls are they always have time to say hello and they say it with a smile. MRS. KEMPER, Red Cross director for Anaheim, did a wonderful bit of humanitarian work the other day which didn't cost the Red Cross one dime but certainly meant much to a widowed mother and her 13-year old son. Think kindly of the Red Cross and its present services, such as blood bank and emergency relief. Forget its past errors in human judgment and help support its future programs. TAKE MOTHER out for Sunday dinner on Mother's Day. It will be quite a change for her. She'll enjoy hearing you complain about some one else's cooking just for one day. JUSTIN KENNEDY, big boss for the Southern Counties Gas Company, stopped in our office and told Ted Kuchel and me how to run the Anaheim Gazette. This we really appreciate. Especially from one who knows the newspaper business from the financial section to the funnies. SAM HILGENFELD and Vic Loly were walking down the street together the other day. Each one was trying to sell the other something and I never did know how the deal came out.

Musick this week announced that he is seeking re-election to the sheriff's post in the June 3 primary. Comending the various phases of law enforcement agencies in Orange County for their cooperation, Musick said: "Orange County has a fine reputation for its efficiency in police matters, and there is no organized crime in the county."

Each one was trying to sell the other something and I never did know how the deal came out. A COMMENT has been made about Vice President Nixon receiving such a warm reception in South America. The commentator was intimating that he wouldn't get such a welcome in his own country. That's not true. It he travelled over the USA with his gracious wife, Pat, the opposition would say he was campaigning. I think a line of distinction could be drawn, but it probably would end up being a border line.

Christopher included in this legislation secret balloting in all matters such as elections, recalls and strike votes; auditing and financial reports of funds, and safeguards to prevent "Undesirable" elements from taking over control of any union by violence, force or coercion. "Rank and file members must be protector," Christopher said, "in case of disagreement with union officials, and against discrimination because of race, color or creed."
