Orange County's Oldest Newspaper Established in 1870 Published Every Thursday 'O' XXVIII ANAHEIM, ORA Little ... Notes by Bill McCance (Editor) TOO MUCH? — California school administrators are being paid "exhorbant" salaries and are building up empires of "plush positions." These were the charges carried last week, hurled by State Sen. Stanley Arnold (D-Susanville) in Sacramento. One news story on the subject pointed out that Orange County school executives are drawing salaries comfortably comparable to the $22,500 a year paid representatives and senators in the U.S. Congress. This reporter doesn't know State Sen. Arnold. But if he is anything like the rest of his colleagues; just how much of the taxpayers money each year does he waste on useless junkets and sessions of interim committees Vacancy Occurs On City Council With Resignation There is a vacancy on the City Council today. Councilmen with regret Tuesday night accepted the resignation of Councilman Bob Borden, elected to the office in April of 1958. Borden in a letter to the council explained that his livelihood has taken him outside the city. "I can no longer give the time necessary to properly do my duty as a member of the council," he explained. He said that he would rather his place be taken by someone who could devote the time required. If councilmen do not appoint someone to fill Borden's unexpired term in 30 days, an election must be called immediately. Sex Education County school executives are drawing salaries comfortably comparable to the $22,500 a year paid representatives and senators in the U.S. Congress. This reporter doesn't know State Sen. Arnold. But if he is anything like the rest of his colleagues; just how much of the taxpayers money each year does he waste on useless junkets and sessions of interim committees which are paid extra for their time? No one would think twice about a corporation executive or a manager of a large chain store receiving $20,000 annually. There's nothing wrong with this. It fits into America's great boast of high (Continued on Page 6) Services Held for Drowing Victim Private funeral services were held for one-year-old Aaron D.

Hilgenfeld Mortuary was in charge of arrangements. Sex Education Considered for High School Boys A proposal to put sex instruction into boy's physical education classes is under consideration by Anahelm High School District adminisartors today. District trustees made the proposal Monday night following adoption of "Modern Health" by Otto Julian Tether for the new health and safety course going into operation this fall. Approval of the course included comment from Supt. Paul Cook that it is not the intention of the teacher's committee or superintendent that human reproduction or study be included in the health and safety course in which is composed of both boys and girls. He said this type of study will not suffer because of lack of help.

City officials are drawing up a new ordinance, if adopted, would put any coffee house operating in the city of Anaheim under direct city council control. At present no such "beat generation" places or coffee houses are in operation here. But councilmen apparently are preparing for the possibility of several coffee houses locating in the city. NOTHING FORMAL So far no formal application for coffee houses have been re- At present no such "beat generation" places or coffee houses are in operation here. But councilmen apparently are preparing for the possibility of several coffee houses locating in the city. NOTHING FORMAL So far no formal application for coffee houses have been received. City officials, however, indicated they expect to receive request for one in the future. Administrative Assistant Bob Davis reported that at present the city can not prevent coffee houses locating if they go into a building which is already zoned for restaurants and cafes. Police Chief Mark Stephenson said that no ordinance is in effect which could regulate entertainment at cafes here. "The city is getting so large that we want to keep tabs on the type of entertainment offered here," he declared. PROPOSAL One proposal is that all cafes to have entertainment must appear before the council or apply to the police department for an entertainment permit. The only regulatory ordinance now in effect is that cafes or clubs having dinner-dances must get a special permit from the council and police department. In all other instances, according to city officials, cafes can hold almost any-type of entertainment without a permit. City officials admitted that the new legislation is aimed at dis- Council Fails to Decide on New Building Fees City councilmen today are still unable to agree on a proposal by City Manager Keith Murdoch, jacking up building permit fees to help defray inspection costs to the city. Councilmen Tuesday night in a split 2-2 vote did not adopt the 1958 Uniform Building Code which makes the permit increase possible. Councilmen Rex Conns and Glenn Fry voted against the proposal. Mayor A. J. Schutte and Charles Pearson voted for the measure. NEW CODE Coons claimed that in his opinion adoption of the new code "is a discriminatory tax." He said that the builders should not be taxed to augment the general fund. Under the proposal the building fee for an average home built would be raised from $36.50 to $49.50. Councilman Pearson claimed that by increasing the permit fee it would add to the building de- ET'S GET ACQUAINTED Heading Up Two Retail Associations In Anaheim Keeps Bill Hammer Rusv Heading up the Retail Merchant's Committee in Anaheim Chamber of Commerce is Bill Hammer, 29-year-old manager of Grant's in East Anaheim Center.

Busy as he is with his job, Hammer, who resides at 2233 Westport Anaheim, still finds time to act as president of the East Anaheim Merchant's Association. Hammer came to Anaheim when the cen-scription opened in 1958. He served 5½ years with Grants. A graduate of the University of Colorado, Hammer lists his hobbies as golf and bowling. He says he can still find a little time for these activities between the two important retail jobs he heads up in the community. Hammer as president of the East Anaheim merchant's group is responsible for helping to formulate promotions and activities which keep the new center in East Anaheim busy the year-round. He heads the merchant's executive board and is responsible for planning with other merchants some of the fine events which have included in the past year top-flight entertainers who visit the center to put on special shows. He also is a member of the Elks club. California and the women's clothing business are a relatively new experience for Charles Samuel. He is manager of Jan's Dress Shop in East Anaheim Center. Samuel, who is one of the three owners of the company which operates four stores, got into the clothing business with opening of the new store in East Anaheim Center in 1958. At that time he came west to California after spending eight years working with an oil company. Most of all Samuel likes to find a few spare moments to spend with his wife and four children. He says one of his favorite activities is taking short trips with the family. "But I don't find as much time as I would like to do with having to spend about six days a week on the job," he explains. Samuel prides himself on the type of buying done for Jan's. He says this helps bring to the store some of the most recent styles available to women.
