Tirico, seal sale chairman; Jess Crim (celebrant U.S. Rubber; Frank Tesch, member of the seal sale committee. The Christmas Seal lunch will be at noon Monday, Nov, 17, at the Revere House, East 1st and Tustin Street, in Tustin. Judge Franklin West, with Edward Lee Russell, M.D. Orange County health officer, a speaker. The invocation will be given by the Right Rev. Msgr. Michael F. O'Connor, pastor Joseph Church in Santa Ana. The sale of Christmas Seals here is the annual fund raising which supports the various projects of the Orange County Tuberculosis and Health Assis LAW IN ACTION CONSERVATORSHIP A court may name guardians for people who cannot take care of themselves or their property such as those who are (1) insane, (2) minors, or (3) incompetent. But many old people and their kin avoid guardianship since it may connote some sort of stigma. And so, a new law allows a court to name a "conservator" instead in certain cases where the person himself seeks one, or where he cannot manage his affairs. The conservator may be an individual, a relative or friend; or it may be a bank or trust company authorized by California law to act as a conservator. Conservators differ from guardians in some ways: (1) A conservator can do everything that a guardian can, plus some other things the court may allow him to do. (2) The person may nominate his conservator himself, which is true of guardianships only for a minor over 14 years of age. (3) If the person and the court approve, the conservator need not have to put up bond. But most guardians do. (4) The person may earn wages outside the conservatorship estate. No guardianship allows this. (5) There can be temporary conservators, which is true only of guardians named for the purpose of a law suit, for example, which involves a minor. This new idea of a conservatorship has been in effect in California for only a year or so. But it is one more step that California law makers have taken to meet some of the problems of aging persons. For with the lengthening of human life, millions of old people come to California. Most of them are perfectly capable of handling their business and looking after themselves. Some may in time need guardians. But many may be able to do well with the aid of a conservator who may allow much more elbow room—where it can be managed—than a guardian would. IT IS WITH PRIDE THAT I THANK THE MORE THAN THIRTY-FOUR THOUSAND VOTERS-IN THE ANAHEIM-FULLERTON JUDICIAL DISTRICT WHO VOTED FOR ME. IT IS WITH HUMILITY THAT I ACKNOWLEDGE THEIR CONFIDENCE. IT IS WITH PLEASURE THAT I EXTEND APPRECIATION TO FRIENDS, BOTH OLD AND NEW, WHO ASSISTED MY WIFE, LAURA, AND ME IN MY CAMPAIGN. IT IS WITH SINCERITY THAT I HONOR FRIENDSHIP AS THE VIRTUE MOST SOUGHT BY CANDIDATES FOR PUBLIC OFFICE. — WARREN J. FERGUSON YOUR LEGISLATOR AT WORK! With the whirlwinds of the general election behind us, members of both houses are turning their attention to the work of the various interim committees to which they belong. All such groups are required to report to the next regular session, which convenes in less than two months, within specified time limits after it starts. In order to complete their work in time, Assembly, Senate and Joint committees are scheduling a heavy program of meetings during the coming weeks. More than 30 hearings in communities all over the state will be held this month, and almost as many are in prospect for December. As a result, most Legislators will be devoting practically full time to committee work between now and the session. Enumeration of just a few of the important matters to be considered at these hearings will indicate the wide range of legislative problems which your lawmakers must struggle with in order to develop measures which A3 - Anaheim Gazette Anaheim, Calif., Thurs., Nov. 13, 1958 Air Pollution Laws In the field of public health, one subgroup of the Assembly committee will review the status of air pollution laws.

Perry, your Telephone Manager in Anaheim The long pole in the hands of this telephone man looks like just the thing for fishing. But it's not a fish he's after; it's trouble. He's giving that cable a "bubble bath," spraying it with a gummy, liquid solution. If the cable is damaged, air will escape through the cracks and form bubbles along the cable. And that's our cue to make repairs swiftly, so your calls won't be affected. In this and many other ways, we keep close tabs on your service. This keeps your phone working more dependably—makes your service better. The long pole in the hands of this telephone man looks like just the thing for fishing.
