Mrs. Oscar Schultz, residential chairman, announced today. Leader of the drive in the Disney area is Mrs. E. J. Ohm of 2420 Grivey Ave. Mrs. Ohm is working on the United Fund drive for the second successive year. An estimated 750 workers are making door-to-door calls in the residential drive. Mrs. Schultz said. Many of them have been recruited from volunteers among the health and welfare organizations which depend upon the United Fund for support. Latest tabulations show that the residential drive has reached 55.8 per cent of its $12,200 quota. "We hope for the first time to have complete coverage of every home," said Mrs. Schultz. Working with her in coordinating the drive are Mrs. Leonard Bouas, Mrs. William Currier, Mrs. Nicholas Freck, Mrs. Lee Hollenbeck and Mrs. Claude Owens. Leaders in the various school areas are Mrs. Lew Sinor, 231 No. Larch St., District 2, chairman; Lincoln, Mrs. Harry Callen, 1229 E. Cypress St., Mrs. M.

The truck, he says, is a vehicle which he can park in his front driveway. The city attorney claims even a boat, with either berths or a galley, would come under the existing ordinance, since it is usually left on a boat trailer with wheels. Not Looking Geisler said the city has not been looking for opportunities to enforce the ordinance. "But there is no other alternative but for the city to take action if a complaint is lodged by a neighbor," he declared. The warrant has been held by the city for two weeks in hopes that Polizzi would eventually accept the city's interpretation of the ordinance and put the camper under cover. Polizzi refuses to do so. He is enlisting aid of other camper and boat owners to fight the ordinance or its legal interpretation in court. Sing-A-Ra (Continued from Page One) she was widely known as radish youngest girl producer when she produced The Lucky Seven KMPR, a program of singers under 21. She also produced Shop, a music and variety program, and sang with a group called the Three Dots and Dash. During the war she worked at USO camp shows, traveling through entire hospital circuit in the United States and then touring the evacuation hospitals in the central, mid- and western Pacific areas. "Our troupe was experimented al." she says. "We were three girls and a man and it was the first time girls were sent to such remote places. We toured many small out-of-the-way places where servicemen hadn't seen girls in months." She counts her hospital show as her most rewarding. After the war she returned to teaching job at Meglin Studios in Hollywood and then went into business for herself.

She Formed Bruce Studio of Theatrical Arts (using her professional name Dorothy Bruce) in Hollywood and Inglewood, and later, the Professional Children's Club of Hollywood. Physical exhaustion forced her to give up the two Hollywood establishments and she devoted her time to the Inglewood Studio, taking a teaching job at the California Military Academy of Dancing as a sideline. Then I gave everything up before Teri Maureen was born in order to preserve my health," she states. Teri Maureen, now five, is an enthusiastic member of the Teeny Tones, a segment of the group featuring children from three to seven. Dorothy, her husband, John C. Flanagan, and little Teri moved to Anaheim in 1957 and live at 328 Ethyl Pl. The idea for the children's singing group began before Teri was born, but it didn't gain impetus until Teri was four years old and began to show interest in music. "Teri and her little friend, Mary Melville, would sit and sing along with the record player by the hour," says Dorothy. The idea began to jell about this time so Dorothy began making inquiries. Bye's Palace of Music offered its quarters for rehearsals and with publicity from local papers Sing-A-Rama was born on April 1, 1961. A few weeks after organizing they held the first of their regular Family Night Reviews, a recital and party for families and friends. Their first engagement was at Lakeland Villa in Santa Fe Springs and they've been averaging one program a month ever since.

It was an immense bush fully 18 feet high, and at all seasons of the year was covered with a wealth of roses. STAGGERING DEBT On a recent Sunday the Rev. Mr. Trew referred to the financial condition of St. Michael's church. On his arrival here Nov. 17, 1877, he was informed that the debt on the building was $490, with interest which would swell the amount at the present time to $580. The debt, however, is now only $418. In other words all current expenses have been met, the interest has been paid, and the principal reduced by $72. Considering the great depression of the past year, and that no special efforts were made, the statement is an encouraging one and "a hearty pull all together" ought to clear away the remaining debt. The frost of last Sunday night was very severe in Westminster and vicinity, and the potato crop suffered somewhat. It is said that in Los Nietos region also the frost did considerable damage. PINK TURKEYS? A number of turkeys will be raffled for at Martin Classen's saloon on Tuesday evening. The contestants will have the option of rolling tenpins or playing any other game they desire.

They expect to locate upon a fine body of land there, where they can develop water. The party will probably return by the end of the week. KLONDYKE TYKE Lorin Gates, who six years ago went to Klondyke, writes his father, F. A. Gates, that he will return home next summer to remain.

Talent isn't necessary for membership in Sing-A-Rama, Mrs. Flanagan states. All children are welcome. The main purpose is having fun. Those with talent have the added benefits of lessons in showmanship. "We entertain on a benefit basis," Dorothy stresses. "It has to be a service type thing It can't be just free entertainment. The cause must be worthy." Recently, a special guest of the group was Candy Carley, seven-year-old blind pianist who was made an honorary member. Mrs. Flanagan does all the writing, arranging and programming for the singers, teaching dancing, poise and all the fine points of showmanship right along with the singing. Helping her in this huge task is her life-long friend, Erna Gearing, who travels in from Lakewood every week to lend a hand.

A baton corps of some 20 members of Sing-A-Rama has been formed by Cherie Boblette, also a member, and will be called the Twirlybirds. They hope to make their debut at the Family Night Christmas Party to be held At Peek Family Colonial Terrace Room. Information regarding the Twirlybirds or Sing-A-Rama may be obtained by calling Mrs. Boblette, JE 7-2401 or Mrs. Flanagan, PR 4-8508. Right now we're busy reharsing for Christmas," says Dorothy. "We're going to be caroling in rest homes, sanitariums and for shut-ins usually over-looked." Dorothy Flanagan has one more thought to offer on the subject. "I think it's a nice way to com-bat juvenile delinquency. Don't you think so? Singing for others makes them happy. And how can happy kids be delinquent?" It's a good theory, and her happy singers seem to bear it out. Council Rejects Orchestra Request The city council has turned down request to use $7,500 in taxpayers funds to subsidize the Anaheim Symphony Orchestra. The request was 50 per cent rise over the $5,000 the city spent last year to help keep the group playing. Councilmen indicated the matter required more study when, and if, the allocation is approved.
