Orange County's Oldest Newspaper Established in 1870 Published Every Thursday VOL. LXXXVIII ANAHEIM, Little ... Notes by Bill McCance (Editor) BEAT IT OUT — It looks like the beat generation is having its problems surviving out Anaheim way. First off councilmen have seen fit to pass a new ordinance which will regulate entertainment in beat coffee houses which decide to locate here. But one thing councilmen apparently didn't bank on was the importing of a 16 piece band to play at a wild beat party here the past weekend. Trouble is it got so wild that 13 persons were arrested at 3443 W. Ball Rd. A dozen officers made the arrests. Many of them were juveniles. RECREATION FOR WHOM — Elementary 'Spanking' 'Common Sense' Promises Even With New State Law Anaheim Eltmentary School District trustees will asked to come up with a formal policy sometime this f on spanking even though corporal punishment has be "dished out" here for some time on a "needed basis." A new California law which, loosely interpreted, rei forces teachers' rights to use corporal punishment went into effect this week. Anaheim Elementary School District by understanding rather than legislation has had this rule in effect for several years. Supt. Robert Shanks said in Trouble is it got so wild that 13 persons were arrested at 3443 W. Ball Rd. A dozen officers made the arrests. Many of them were juveniles. RECREATION FOR WHOM — And this talk of "way out parties" brings the discussion around to current day recreation. Unfortunately most of us have a lot to say on recreation, and consider ourselves experts on the subject. The only real experts on recreation, in this writer's opinion, are those who earn their living working with it day in and day out. Yet, the fact that many teenagers apparently are attracted by the "beat atmosphere" poses several interesting questions. It appears on the surface that (Continued on Page 6) City Denies New Apartment Pool City councilmen, who for the past month have been interested in upgrading house building here, apparently don't feel swimming pools for multiple dwellings are always a partial solution to the problem. They voted Tuesday night to deny permission for a semi-commercial pool within the front yard setback at apartments located at 917 E. Cambridge. Their decision followed protests by Jack Bush, owner of an adjacent apartment, who contended the pool would only add to the traffic problem of the area. He said that many of his tenants had protested the proposed pool. COP'S ARREST CAUSES RELEASE An investigation of an Anaheim policeman arrested by Placentia police officers last week has resulted in his dismissal from the local force. The police officer in question, Rubin Alonzo, 31, was not booked. But Police Chief Mark Stephenson said he ordered Alonzo's dismissal after the police officer failed to report for work Saturday and for "conduct not fitting a police officer." Alonzo was arrested by Placentia police officers who turned him over to a lieutenant and captain from the Anaheim department. Alonzo was taken into custody after an incident with Placentia police in the 301 Club on Santa Fe St. Anaheim Elementary School District by understanding rather than legislation has had this rule in effect for several years. Supt. Robert Shanks said in the past necessary corporal punishment has been dealt out by school principals. "But only as a last recourse and only when the matter had first been discussed with parents," he explained. He said at present the district has no written policy on the matter. With the new law Shanks said he expects to ask the school board for a definite policy on the matter. "We are now rewriting any old policies which have been changed by new laws," he said. "And the spanking subject fits into this program." Shanks said he probably would (Continued on Page A-6) Planning commissioners have given Interstate Department Store, a facility scheduled to cover some 80,000 square feet the go ahead for development Harbor Blvd., at Wilken.

In Brief Officials Study Drainage Problem Anaheim city officials yesterday were expected to meet with Garden Grove and Westminster to study their common drainage problem. The state completed its review of the flood run-off problems for this area. 13 Arrested at 'Beat' Party Here Thirteen persons were placed under arrest here following a raid of a party at 3443 W. Ball Rd. by local police. The party was described as a wild, "beatnik affair." Khrushchev Just Didn't Make It What has been reported as an error in police broadcast apparently was the cause of abandoning plans for a trip to this city and Disneyland by Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev and his party. School in Dispute With Subdivider City councilmen here face a threatened law suit. They are in middle of a quarrel between the Anaheim Union High School District and one of the county's biggest subdividers George M. Holstein & Sons. The dispute centers around approval on final tract map located north of Cerritos Ave. east of Euclid. The school district is condemning part of the property in question for a new school site. Subdivider has indicated he will go ahead on his own development. Pellet Fire Injures City Resident An outburst of pellet fire injured an Anaheim man and narrowly missed a housewife here, police reported. Held on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon are two Garden Grove youths. Simpson Murder Suspect Released Charges against Mrs. Adele Rosoto Ulrich, held as suspect in the Simpson murder case, have been dropped.

STILL PITCHING Homeowners Fail Again to Halt Store’s Expansion The Lincoln Park Homeowner's Association is still in there pitching today — even though it appears to have struck out again in the most recent attempt to thwart development of a large hardware store here. For what appeared to be just another of the many rounds of sparring between homeowners and councilmen, the association Tuesday night took issue with Linbrook Hardware's most recent building activity. Led as usual by Mrs. James Chavos, the association questioned councilmen on the legality of Lincoln Ave. store's current project of providing several three-side storage sheds for its merchandise. The Lincoln Park homeowners, who for the past several years have watched the store develop from a small neighborhood center into one of Orange County's largest retail ventures, still take issue with the initial variance granted Linbrook. They contended the store continues as a "sloppy housekeeper" and has far outgrown its present C-1 zone use. Councilmen indicated that legally they cannot halt any building development on the present 180 by 140 sq. ft. property which was affected by the initial variance. "All the council can do," Mayor A. J. Schuttee explained, "is try to put some building restrictions on the store if it seeks city permission to expand to adjacent property." The homeowners seek complete enclosure of the property which abuts many of their homes. Earlier in the meeting the Lincoln Park group objected to the plan by Ralph E. Herrera to move a dwelling from Long Beach to his property at 2017 Embassy.

KOREAN WAR ORPHAN Family Move Not Due to Residents The Roy Proxmire's, who are eagerly awaiting the arrival here of a second Korean orphan, have denied that neighbors caused them to move to Garden Grove from their home at 400 S. West St., Anaheim. Mrs. Roy Proxmire indicated that a happy ending to their trouble in adopting a second Korean orphan appears in sight. She said the landlord of their Anaheim home told them the family was getting too large for those quarters. NOT TRUE She said that neighborhood resentment as reported in a Los Angeles paper had nothing to do with her moving. She denied having said: "There really wasn't any trouble, just a few hints, but we didn't want to try to raise our daughter there if they weren't wanted." She said that only the other day one of her neighbors visited their new Garden Grove home for dinner. "I always felt we got along fine with our Anaheim neighbors," she declared. DOING FINE Mr. and Mrs. Proxmire will be able to pick up 17-month-old Kathy Anne from a Denver hospital in about six weeks.

Hosking of Anaheim, have been delivered to Chapman College, principal beneficiary, by the Bank of America's Santa Ana office trust department.

NATIONAL CHAIRMAN County Republicans to Hear '60 Party Prospects Grassroots Republican workers will be told how to plan for a GOP victory in 1960 and what the prospects for the party are by Senator Thruston B. Morton, Republican National Chairman, at a banquet on Sunday at the Disneyland Hotel. Morton is expected to stress the fact that although Republican officials in Washington and in state governments are doing a good job, thousands of dedicated Republican workers on the precinct level are necessary to make any election successful. It's toward this goal that the GOP chief is working in his swing through the West. Senator Morton is considered to have plenty of evidence to substantiate the claims of political analysts that Republicans are faring well today despite their sound trouncing last November. Morton played a major role in the campaign for federal and state offices resulting in a major Republican upset in the recent Hawaii election. He also just returned from the closing session of Congress which is considered by many pundits to have been successful for the Republican Administration in spite of the tremendous majority which the Democrats enjoy in Congress.
