LADY GROCER—Vinnie A. Hutchison, widow of the late Blayne S. Hutchison, has been elected president and chairman of the board of directors of Greater All-American Markets, Inc., it was announced today. Mrs. Hutchison has been active in the direction of the 13-market chain since the death of her husband over a month ago. In directing the multi-million dollar food chain of All-American Markets, Mrs. Hutchison joins a small but growing group of women executives in the nation's retail food industry, a business whose customers are predominately women. Combined with her active administrative duties as president, Mrs. Hutchison presides over the monthly board of directors meeting and a weekly executive board operational committee composed of key personnel. Currently All-American Markets is embarked on an expense-cutting, operations-streamlining program, with some limited expansion under study. United Fund Contributions Increase Contributions and pledges totaling $56,355, an increase of elementary school employees eight out of the drive’s 17 divisions are: major accounts plan United Fund Contributions Increase Contributions and pledges totaling $56,355, an increase of 25 per cent over last year at this time, were reported at the first general tabulation of the 1961-62 Anaheim-Western Communities United Fund drive. The total was compiled after a report by division chairmen at a breakfast in YMCA headquarters. "We're very enthusiastic about this campaign," Barney Jordan, campaign chairman, told the leaders. "It's very encouraging in every area. We're going over the top." Goal of the drive is $298,000 for the support of 15 health and welfare agencies serving Anaheim, Cypress, Stanton, Dairyland, Los Alamitos and Rossmoor. Workshop Set Retail merchants and executives throughout Orange County will take part in a workshop series to be presented by Orange Coast College and its business management advisory board on Nov. 2, 9 and 14 at the college. A see-saw contest between elementary school employees and city employees tipped at least temporarily in the municipal workers' favor. Keith Murdoch, city employee chairman, reported that this group has recorded 97.8 per cent participation in a payroll deduction plan for the United Fund. Pledges total $8,899. Murdoch said 18 of 25 departments have achieved 100 per cent participation. Elementary school employees have reached 94 per cent participation in a similar pledge plan, Robert Shanks, chairman, reported. Pledges from this group total $8,200. A light note was injected into the report proceedings when John McGrew, coordinator of the Western Communities drive, reported that one of his chairman "has promised to eat his hat if his area doesn't contribute double what it did last year. Scott Raymond, Stanton chairman, then identified himself as the one committed to this promise.

An accident isn't one if it's sure to take place. It must be unexpected and sudden, and generally, unintentional. A company insured Jones from damage he might cause to others "by accident." Jones drilled for and got oil on his land. He pumped for years, and one day when his neighbor's land began to sink, the neighbor sued Jones. The insurance firm would not defend the suit or pay the damages. So Jones up and sued the insurance firm. The court upheld the insurance firm: The sinking land was not an "accident." It was bound to happen and Jones and the neighbor could have foreseen it. Maybe in the first year the sinking might be an accident. But the neighbor was suing for damage for years of pumping and drilling. In one case, unknown to the owner some salad oil grew rancid from lack of care. He sold it to a customer who mixed it with good food products and damaged all his stock. The court agreed that damage to the customer's stock was an accident. Casualties and accidents must happen suddenly. Disputes arise over what an accident is, often with the tax collector. Under the taxing laws you may deduct for "casualties" or "accidents." In income tax cases the government will not let you deduct termite or dry rot damage caused to your home over many years. But a sudden swarm of termites damaging your house all at once would be deductible. Note: California lawyers offer this column so you may know about our laws.

YES—THIS IS A RADIO! —It’s one way the miracle of the transistor is ch The transistor started out a dozen years ago as an amplifier for telephone signals, and look what’s happened to it! Now they’re widely used in midget portable radios. A single missile may carry as many as 6,000 transistors, and its control equipment may use thousands more. The “magic brain” computers all use transistors and kindred devices, up to several hundred thousand for a really big one. The transistor is just one more example of the drive for discovery that is sparked by America’s big and growing research and development operation. It could have been devised only by people dedicated to never letting well enough alone. Already they have given us a long list of advances, from jet transports to earth satellites, from vitamins to the wonder drugs. And the wider their knowledge, the greater their achievements. They have only begun to work their miracles. No wonder our research expenditure are running at $12 billion a year — constantly increasing! For new products and processes build new companies, whole new industries. They create new better-paid jobs by the tens of thousands. They mean better living for everybody. It won’t all be quick and easy. We have our problems, just as usual. But with these first-class problem solvers on the job, we can look forward to the greatest era of progress in our history!

Increase in City Scouts Reported Head held high, his necker-chief carefully centered and his shoulders squared, the Scout steps forward to receive his badge. Another milestone has been reached in the boy's path toward manhood and being a good citizen. During 1961, 5,000 merit and advancement badges will be awarded in the Boy Scout districts supported by the Anaheim-Western Communities United Fund drive now in progress. Behind each of these personal successes is the time and effort put forth by 1,000 adult leaders, the dedication of 140 sponsoring clubs, churches and civic groups and the proven professional guidance of the Scout movement. Municipal Judges Named The appointment of three attorneys to the municipal court in Orange County was announced today by Governor Edmund G. Brown. They are: Charles A. Bauer Jr., city attorney of Huntington Beach, who will be judge of a newly-created court in the Huntington Beach-Seal Beach Judicial District. William L. Murray, 38-year-old Santa Ana attorney, who will be judge of the new court in the Santa Ana-Orange Judicial District. Raymond F. Vincent of Garden Grove, who succeeds Judge Warren Ferguson on the bench in the Anaheim-Fullerton Judicial District. "These are men of proven ability in the law," the governor said.
