Claus and Postmaster Mike, the ANAHEIM GAZETTE has been permitted a peep inside some of these most interesting—and amazing—missives. Here's the result, and you're sure to comment, "these amazing kids:" Phew! Tommy and Bobby, brothers, would like a go-cart that speeds 35 miles an hour, and they send a cut-out picture of the go-cart so old Santa won't do any "substituting." Seven in One Family Relonda, who is three and so has her brother for a pen-pal these days, would like a huckleberry hound dog, a Yogi bear, a wagon train and a bubbly gum bank. Perhaps Relonda may grow up to be an animal trainer. Now Santa, get on the ball pronto for here are seven in one family, exclusive of Papa and Mama.

Schutte departed in the middle of the session, taking a jet plane for a visit to his ranch in Missouri. Mayor Schutte was scheduled to deliver a blast at the Orange County Board of Supervisors for their action in approving the move of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce in seeking acceptance from the U. S. Bureau of the Budget in Washington, D. C., for a combined Los Angeles-Long Beach-Orange County Metropolitan District. Discussing this move to tie Orange County to Los Angeles' "apron strings" earlier in the day, Mayor Schutte said: "The action of the Board of Supervisors in approving this move without first consulting the mayor and other city officials throughout Orange County is difficult to understand, particularly the fact that William Phillips, the supervisor from our end of the county initiated the move. "The mayors of Fullerton and Buena Park are among the officials dead set against this move which would make Orange County just a satrap of Los Angeles County. We're perfectly able to go ahead on our own steam without being handicapped by having to play second fiddle to Los Angeles County."

(Continued on Page 3-A) Our Anaheim Santa Claus parade is over and we are plump in the midst of another Christmas season, joyous for most of us, comforting for all So, let's give space today to two of the immortal classics of the Yule season, "Christmas Carol" and "Is There a Santa Claus?" More than 100 years ago, on Dec. 27, 1853, "A Christmas Carol" received its first public reading at the Town Hall in Birmingham, England. The monologist was seated at the small reading desk; he was a studious looking gentleman with ample beard and thickets of hair over his ears. His name was Charles Dickens. The audience comprised common folk who had flocked to the chilly auditorium on foot and by carriage to laugh and cry unashamedly with a crippled little tyke named "Tiny Tim," a warm-hearted family called the Cratchits, the roolering Fuzzywigs — and a "tight-fisted, grasping, covetous old sinner," "solitary as an oyster," named Ebenezer Scrooge. A century and more has passed and Dickens' masterpiece refuses to die. A literary Reck of Ages, it has probably; it is evolution from book to stage, movie, radio and TV, delighted more people than any other holiday story in the English language.
