B5 - Anaheim Gazette Anaheim, California, Friday, Nov. 27 Hughes Aircraft Building $225,000 Advanced Radar System Test Center Hughes Aircraft Company is building a $225,000 test center for evaluation of advanced radar systems in Carbon Canyon near Yorba Linda. C. Harper Brubaker, a Hughes vice president and manager of the company's Ground Systems Group, says the center, when completed early next year, will comprise a one-story, 11,000-square foot, prefab steel building, a large rotable antenna stand and parking facilities. A comparison antenna test transmitter facility will be constructed 3,700 feet northeast of the main test site. Brubaker said work already has started on paving, improving and widening an existing 6,200-foot dirt access road connecting the site with the intersection of Prospect and Wabash Sts. in Yorba Linda. Another 3,000-foot oiled road will be built between Carbon Canyon and transmitter facilities. Between 25 and 40 Hughes employees will work at the site. The 5½-acre site is being leased by Hughes from Shell Oil Company. Site preparation, road work and paving is being done by Cox Brothers Construction Company, Stanton. Them Thar Critters Weren’t Milkable; Just Junior Steers Three baby steers, property of three aggie students and Future Farmers of America at Anaheim Union High school, gave two city-bred Anaheim police officers, Dell Manning and Robert Schroeder, a perplexing half-hour at Madison school, Nutwood and Cerritos Ave. School children phoned Anaheim police station that “three stray cows” were eating the grass at Madison school.

For it could possibly be due to the incantation of Rainmaker William O. Payne, OCC art instructor, invoking the aid of the Aztec rain god. Five times in the past ten years, Rainmaker Payne has made clay Arizona Outdoors Conference Lauds Anaheim Leader The Arizona Recreation Association, at its tenth Annual Conference in Prescott, Ariz., honored John J. Collier of 400 S. Baker St., Anaheim, Southwest District representative of the National Recreational Association, for his outstanding service to the association and the recreation movement in Arizona. W. B. Stronach, Jr., director of Parks and Recreation, Anaheim, on behalf of the Orange County Recreation Association and the Eta Chapter, Phi Sigma Epsilon (national honorary recreation association), presented an Arizona State Flag to the organization. The flag symbolizes friendship and mutual interest in recreation. A third Anaheim resident attending the Prescott meeting was Young F.

Reid. Offered in four nine-week sessions each during the school year, It rain should come to the thirsty soil of Orange County within the next few days, the weatherman can make a deep bow in the direction of Orange Coast College. For it could possibly be due to the incantation of Rainmaker William O. Payne, OCC art instructor, invoking the aid of the Aztec rain god. Five times in the past ten years, Rainmaker Payne has made clay images of Tlaloc, Lord of the Rain and Mountains; laid them upon the parched earth and lifted his voice plaintively to the skies with the ancient cry, "O, Tlaloc, Lord of the Rains and Mountains, hear our plea." Five times it has brought rain. Payne's demonstration is part of his instruction to OCC art history students examining the customs and products of pre-Spanish Mexico. His Name Is "Tlaloc." Rain gods are the most universally worshipped in the Western Hemisphere. Payne said. The Aztecs called their rain god, Tlalac. He was also known as Tajin, Chaco, and Cocijo to other corn growers of ancient America. The original of the Tlaloc image used by Payne was found in Mexico and a mold of it was made in the old fashion. Many images are made from that mold, thus forming an unbroken chain or power to the present day, according to ancient Aztec custom. Art appreciation classes at OCC concentrate more on pre-Columbian Mexico because of the proximity of vast museum collections and the array of monuments and other structures just a few hours away. After a quick look at the arts of the South Seas, the class will examine the classical civilizations of the Mediterranean.

Reid said. Upon completion of eight of the nine-week sessions, each of which has a different topic, students receive a certificate from the Fullerton Evening Junior College in recognition of commercial horticulture study completed.

Anaheim’s Alert Colonists Beat Western Pioneers 24 to 6 Before Crowd of 10,000 Jamming Stadium Before a crowd that jampacked La Palma-Stadium — more than 10,000 — and which was intensely partisan, one way or the other, Anaheim’s Colonists Friday night displayed their football supremacy against the up and surprising Western Pioneers, 24 to 6. The victory clinched the city championship for the Colonists and assured them second spot in the Sunset League. A 12-point final “count-down” spelled finis for the Pioneers as the Colonists’ supporters made the stadium ring with their cheers. Almost edging out graduating halfback Rick Scheffler as hero of the game was fellow senior Bob Luecke, 6-foot, 3-inch end who intercepted a Pioneer pass and made a spine-tingling over-the-shoulder fingertip catch of one aimed at him. End Ronnie Burt, a junior, caught two other Pioneer passes and Scheffler snagged one. Some 49 seniors were on the two squads and most saw at least a few minutes of action. The first quarter was scoreless and the only scare for either team came when Anaheim got just inside the 20 early in the game. Pioneer back Tom Horen recovered fullback Brian Robson’s fumble to break up that drive on the play after Luecke made his great catch good for 33 yards. Score In Second Quarter In the second quarter Anaheim ran back a Western punt to their own 48. Eight plays later the Colonists couldn’t do anything with, Western had moved from their own St Jude Hospital Expansion Fund Reaches $336,000 The chairman of the $700,000 St. Jude’s Hospital Expansion Fund campaign, Miles A. Sharkey, announces that the Big Gifts Committee members have turned in 27 additional subscriptions totaling $32,035, bringing the amount to date to $336,313. Charman Sharkey said: “We have made an analytical study of these returns and find that $82,500 of the above grand total has been subscribed by 22 individuals, groups; and new firms in this hospital service area that did not participate in the 1954 campaign to construct the Anaheim’s Alert Colonists Beat Western Pioneers 24 to 6 Before Crowd of 10,000 Jamming Stadium A bad punt by Pioneer end Dennis Brozowski gave Anaheim the ball on the visitors’ 29 yard line. It took seven plays for Scheffler to slide through a hole for the final five yards with 7:16 remaining. Western Hits Paydirt Western started from its own 31, and in 16 plays ground out the yards to pay dirt, with quarterback Dennis Painter making the final two on a keeper play, with only 34 seconds in the quarter. Guard Steve Setterlund wished the goalpoasts were six inches further apart after his boot hit the upright above the crossbar. After Anaheim fumbled on the last play of the quarter, things looked bleak for the final stanza, but Luecke’s interception on the second pay started a 64-yard march. Scheffler was pulled down from behind by tackle Dennis Knudson after a 48-yard romp to the two, and Quarterback Mike Rice cracked the line for the rest of the distance. Scheffler’s interception of a pass from Painter on the Western 30 started the ball moving Pioneerward again. Rideout picked up 21 yards and then Rice flipped a three-yarder over the goal line to Luecke with 5:47 in the game. After another Anaheim pass interception, which the Colonists couldn’t do anything with, Western had moved from their own Golden Anniversary Celebrated By Orange County Typo Union 579 Orange County Typographical Union No. 579, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, celebrated its golden anniversary at Disneyland Hotel and Anaheim Bowl.
