Thought for today from the Anaheim Optimist Club: "Don't worry about finding your station in life. Someone's sure to tell you where to get off." I'll never be able to qualify for an Optimist membership. One point in the creed says: "promise yourself to be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind." It won't work. A waitress who brings me my steak, and then disappears while my steak gets cold as I wait for catsup, can cause me to lose my mind completely. Congratulations to the Anaheim Junior Chamber of Commerce committee on an economic analysis, composed of Louis W. Dexter, Jack Foster, Charles Lusin, George Mantay and Robert Woolsey. They have hit the proverbial nail right where it hurts. Watch for a complete report of the committee next week. The attention of the superintendent of parks could very easily be called to the little triangle of city property at the intersection of Los Angeles Street and La Palma avenue. Here it lies, at the entrance to Anaheim, the largest city in Orange County, and you should see it. Not a spear of growing grass or a single flower on that little plot of ground. Where is our city beautiful committee? Corn has always been my favorite dish, the kind you eat off a cob and the kind you read in columns like this. But now that I have seen and talked to Betty Corn, Miss Anaheim of 1958 I like corn better than ever. But let me say this about Betty. She is not only a beautiful brunette but a girl with a wonderful personality and plenty of poise. She may not win the title of Miss California. She need not even worry. She's got something already that no one can take away from her Appeal Made to Prevent Rabies in County; Protect Unwanted Animals To the Editor and all Orange County Citizens. Dear Neighbors and Friends: This is an urgent message from the Orange County Citizens Committee for S.P.C.A., to all citizens of the county. The Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals has fervently been trying for some time to establish a Humane Society and Shelter, humanely run, in greater Orange County. To do this, we need your support and financial help. This is for your benefit! You, Mr. and Mrs. Orange County resident, need S.P.C.A., and that need, in view of the following information, is presently desperate! Here are some amazing facts! 1. Rabies is going to be given a most glorious opportunity to spread to out-of-control proportions throughout Orange County under new existing rules set forth by the present Orange County Council! From now on, according to Bill Richards, council member, no animals will be accepted free of charge at the pound, unless the pound master of a city area himself turns them in. Instead, all private citizens living in incorporated areas, (all cities in the county) who wish to give animals to the pound immediately and not wait two to four days for pick-up service, will have to pay $1.00 per animal to turn them into the only existing shelter in the county. 2. With an average of one pick-up car per city, there are going to be an uncountable number of overlooked animals. This also means that many more animals will be dumped upon highways and in fields, rather than the owner paying the fee, which could be exhorbitant if people have mother dogs and cats complete with litters. There will be an increasing number of un-inoculated animals running freely, carrying rabies distemper, hepatitis and other highly infectious diseases, to be picked up by sympathetic children, maybe yours and mine. Special Note: Since we, the Citizens Committee, are working so hard in your behalf, please give us a little moral support. Our post office box is No. 134 Garden Grove, California. Our phone number is Jefferson 4-0774. We urge you, friends and neighbors to help us get this cruel and sloppy type of handling for which we now pay so heavily under the proper and efficient supervision of the S.P.C.A., complete with state humane offices and jurisdictional authority. We would like to form committees to aid us in our efforts, so please phone us if you can spare a little time, and we will assign you to a group within your city and neighborhood if possible. Signed: Mrs. Lynette Collard Chairman Orange County Citizen Committee. There is absolutely nothing wrong about folks taking vacations but I do wish they would do it and get going. The guys I hate are those who come in and tell us in detail about the good times they anticipate having, and here we sit slaving away. HIGH SCHOOL GRANT United States Senator Thomas H.
