Anaheim Police C See editorial on Page B1. "If parents drive recklessly, receive a traffic citation from a police officer, then blast off at the police for enforcing the law, they can well expect their sons and daughters to do the same. 'This is one of the first steps leading to juvenile delinquency, a problem now predominant in many cities, including Anaheim, where we recently had an outburst at Anaheim Union High School when Detective John Caldwell was attacked and beaten by Juveniles, and more lately in Santa Ana last Saturday night when a crowd of youthful hooflums assaulted a police officer as he arrested three teen-agers on drunk charges." Anaheim Police Chief Mark H. Stevenson, in an interview with the Gazette made the above statements, coupling them with blunt opinions pertinent to every father and mother in this city.

LXXXVIII ANAHEIM, 'SINGLE HOUSERS' Politics Begin to Sizzle As Republican State Unit 'Buckaroo Feed Will Kick Off Politics Begin to Sizzle As Republican State Unit Backs Nixon for President Politics sizzles anew even though the Presidential nominating conventions are months away and there is not another gubernatorial election in California for another three years. With Vice President Richard M. Nixon and United States Senator Thomas H. Kuchel taking leading roles in late developments, here's what's popping: 1. Republican State Committee, meeting in Los Angeles, approves vigorously Resolution's Committee resolution urging Vice President Nixon to become a candidate for President. It offered every cooperation with other interested groups in the state in getting a Nixon delegation on the ballot. Approval of the resolution was marked by tremendous applause in which Senator Kuchel of Anaheim, took a leading part. 2. State Committeemen hear Rep. Glenard P. Lipscomb of Los Angeles urge committee to get on the ball in effectively advising the public of its accomplishments and purposes. 3. Paul Butler, Democratic National Chairman, addressing a California Young Democrats Conference at Santa Monica, warns that political leadership must meet both America's domestic needs as well as adequate defense, if we are to survive as a nation. 4.

I find that 1959 marks the 36th annual Hallowe'en Festival staged under the auspices of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce. This traditional event has grown to such proportions that it attracts more than 150,000 spectators and participants annually. Its parade is the most spectacular procession west of the New Orleans Mardi Gras. Anaheim merchants, on the ball as always, make available their display windows on the main streets for Kiddies' Window Art. The Kiddies' Parade has more than 5,000 participants. Some shindig! Anaheim's schools are world considering. The city's school system includes two high schools, three junior high schools and an elementary school within a half-mile of every residence. Parochial schools include one Catholic high school, Marywood High School for Girls, two grammar schools and St. Catherine's Military Academy. There is one Lutheran grammar school, one Baptist grammar school. (Continued on Page A7) Minute Editorial C. Max Gillis, boss man of the Metropolitan Transit Authority, might well pause in his dreams of seeking the next Republican nomination for Governor of California and do something about the boorish impoliteness of his ticket sellers in the Los Angeles station. For unmitigated rudeness in roughly brushing off patrons and in doing so using sharp-edged remarks and baleful looks, they take the No. 1 Croix de Meanness. What does a stranger coming into Los Angeles and seeking directions think of that? Maybe the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce and the Junior Chamber of Commerce might confer with Max on this problem. Also, Max might see to it that the word "Anaheim" is posted in proper spots in the station so that folks coming to this city on his buses may find their way. At no place in the station is "Anaheim" discernible. Yes, Max, we have 92,000 population and we're growing fast. VICE Chief Discusses Juvenile Written whether they believe them to be right or wrong," Chief Stevenson detailed. And they must teach their children to do the same. Must Inculcate Respect They must inculcate in the minds of their children a respect the policeman and for the uniform and badge which he wears. represents the law and our nation—our community—is founded respect for the law. If the parents do this we will have little of the juvenile de-duency now plaguing many of our cities. Discipline of a child by parents should start early when they two or three years old and should be followed through the rers until they become of college age. If you let them go until they are 14 or 15 it is too late—to be consistent discipline must start early in a child's life. In homes where this is practiced there is little trouble. There are exceptions, of course, but generally speaking if a boy or has due respect for their parents, they will seldom get into trouble. Rarely do youngsters run afoul of the law if they are actively engaged in athletics. Sports are the best form of molding character and teaching children the advantages of discipline. You have to be on the up-and-up, decent and willing to obey orders if they are to remain in athletics. Anyone actively engaged in athletics is no problem to the police.

Mayor A. J. "We need to augment our overworked staff in the Chamber of Commerce office," Cromer said, "and we feel that Hall will be able to make many contacts which we have been forced to neglect and also complement the work now being done by the present staff members." "All surveys indicate that the next ten years will bring added industry and business to Orange County, with increasing population," Cromer said, "and we want to be in a position to serve these new industries and do the work which is expected of a Chamber of Commerce office."

In such cases the youngsters gain the idea that 'They can't push me around,' and when they reach 13 or 14 they begin to defy the law. "We have parents who call and berate our police officers because the latter enforce the law—their sons frequently tell things about their treatment from police which are far from true. You'll find that in such cases the youngster has berated the poliliceman to the point where the latter must speak firmly to the youngster. In many such cases, the parents see only one side. "You cannot expect the schools, the police and other outside agencies to raise our children. We can help the parents to do so, but the latter must back up the schools and the police. "Much of our juvenile delinquency today stems from lack of discipline as administered by parents. "You cannot make this too strong—parents must take the lead in disciplining their children." 89 Years of Devotion to All That Is Good in Anaheim FINAL EDITION THURSDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1959—NO. 17 14 PAGES AT COUNCIL MEET 12 New Police Cars Among Equipment OK'd by Solons AT COUNCIL MEET 12 New Police Cars Among Equipment OK’d by Solons The Home Owner—the fellow who occupies a private home, not an apartment house dweller—had his inning Tuesday night before Anaheim City Council, and came out top dog. Council also ordered new equipment, including 12 new police cars and a new street sweeper, the outlay totaling $97,912.05. A request by Leo B. and Emily M. McGavren for change of zone from R-A to R-3 on property on the north side of E. La Palma Ave., between Baxter and Acacia Sts., precipitated a full hour’s battle between the single house and apartment house advocates and before a crowded Council chamber. Briefly the request, if granted, would have permitted erection of more apartment buildings in this desirable neighborhood. It brought into focus the plaintiff of the "Single Housers" that the area should not be thrown open to more apartment house construction. Vigorously Protest Al White, 288 Spruce St., and Joseph Reilly, 1417 Redwood Ave., and a file of others vigorously protested the request. Cited were the facts that apartment houses, as a rule, do not house as many children as do single houses; that they constitute a traffic danger to children and that Council should reserve this admirable section for single homes by blocking further apartment house building in that area. Council which on Sept. 29 had rejected the proposal, again voted against it, 3 to 1, and the "Single Housers" had scored a significant victory. Included in the purchases ordered by Council were the new police cars, three four-door sedans, a delivery truck, a Travelall, delivery truck; pickup chassis, three transformers, one street sweeper and three air compressors. Turn-in value of present police cars was $7,556. City Manager Keith Murdock recommended these purchases. Request by Keystone Savings and Loan Association, Arthur H. Shipkey, agent, for C-I zoning of property on west side of Palm St., between South and Vermont Sts., was held over, with certain lots in tract referred to the city engineer. Request by Fred Robinson and S. F. Hilgenfelt, Gordon L. Hodge, authorized agents, for C-3 zoning on property at 1919 and 1927 E. Center St., between Coffman and Placentia Aves., was referred to City Planners and city manager for report in two weeks. Planners had recommended property be used only for a hotel. Request by Dr. William Knott for C-I zoning at 601, 611 and 617 South Palm St., between Water and South Sts., evoked considerable opposition. Propos- (Continued on Page A7) Anaheim...
