Is it more than in the yester-year, or less? The Anaheim City School district wants to know. The authorities at School District Headquarters, 412 E. Broadway, can predict accurately the number of pupils and students single houses will come up with. It averages 73 to 75 youngsters for every group of 100 homes. But, in the light of present changing conditions it is unable to gauge accurately what number apartment houses will produce. Conditions Change It used to average 12 children to each 100 apartment units. But not any more, what with apartment house owners providing free baby sitting, swim pools and the like in modern conveniences. It used to be that apartment house owners discouraged prospective rentors with children. But not so, in these modern, competitive days—nosiree! More apartment house owners, in view of the severe competition for occupants, now go all-out attract rentors. And the old day of ruling out parents with children have gone by the board appreciably.

Nixon resident, and that this bodes for a party resurgence in national and legislative battle. Reservoir, Fire Station, Library Have Priority anaheim, a city of remarkable growth and promise, is bursting at the seams—and something needs to be done about it. City Manager Keith A. Murdock believes certain needed improvements, especially in relation to city water, new mains, a new Central Fire Station, replacement for the present Central Library Building now 51 years old and almost completely obsolete, necessary electrical facilities and acquisition of sites for future improvements, can be started within a relatively short time, and can be completed within the framework of funds, received through careful bonding and from current revenue. He believes, most thoroughly, that any improvements necessitating sale of bonds, should be embraced within the scope of the city's financial availability to pay. In other words, the amount of the bond issue which has been tentatively set for presentation to the people next April should be only for improvements needed imperatively and "urgently" for this city of 92,000 population.
