Anaheim Established in 1870 ... Published Continuously Volume 91, Number 13 18 Pages BROWN WINS Civil Defense Heads Tour City Schools' Television Studios Anaheim Civil Defense Coordinator Paul Hayes hosted a tour of the Anaheim City Schools' closed circuit television studios recently for visiting State and Federal executives assigned to the Medical Self-Help Program. With the cooperation of Robert Shanks, superintendent of the Anaheim City School District, Hayes was able to show Dr. Frank Reider, director of training, U. S. Public Health Service, Washington, D. C. and Dr. William W. Roe Jr., assistant chief of Medical and Health Services, California Disaster office, Santa Ana, how the closed circuit television could instruct a far greater number of adults and students in the pilot program. The TV receiving equipment is now installed in 20 elementary schools and 211 classrooms. Full use of each facility would supplement the conventional classroom potential by more than 5,000. In addition to live telecasting, tapes of each lesson can be used to reach even greater audiences. Prior to their visit here, Hayes Denholm To Math Project Vice Chair Richard A. Denholm, Orange County Schools Consultant in Mathematics and Science, has been named as vice-chairman of Regional High School Mathematics Curriculum Project, according to Linton T. Simmons, Orange County Superintendent of Schools. In keeping with the recommendations of the State Advisory Committee on Mathematics, the California State Department of Education is establishing the mathematics curriculum project for grades 7 through 9. The project is to produce teachers' handbooks that will aid teachers to incorporate units of modern mathematics with their present programs. In order to broaden the benefits of the project, the State Department of Education has organized the work on a regional basis. A university mathematician will be assigned to each group in the state as a consultant and a coordinating panel will provide overall guidance to the project. Denholm states that each regional group will produce particular segments of the materials as needed.

COLONY CRIER by Earl Wilson I was the Admiral Byrd of my neighborhood yesterday morning... first to reach the polls... and I feel that if I can get by with that kind of joke as the first item in this column, then I have what is known as truly devoted readers. Seriously though, as I downed my cup of coffee and hurried to the polls to cast my vote, I wondered to myself what Ivan in Moscow would give to be afforded the same right and privilege. Not only do we, as Americans, get to choose our nation's leaders and their capable assistants, but we also have a voice in what shall be done with our tax money... up to a point of course. In fact, there were so many propositions on that ballot that I kept searching for the proposition that would let me vote YES to outlaw further propositions. My ballot was in the box at 7:10 a.m., and I walked away proudly displaying my ballot number in my coat lapel to let everyone know that I had joined the ranks of millions of Americans who have exercised their rights and performed their civic duty. On the subject of politics... and everyone seems to be concerned with that subject at present... do you know where the Republicans obtained the elephant as the party symbol? I didn't either, until today. Just exactly 88 years ago today the pachyderm came on the scene when Harper's Weekly in the edi- tion of Nov. 7, 1874, ran the first cartoon depicting an elephant as the symbol of the Republican party. It was in a drawing by Thomas Nast entitled "The Third Term Panic" and was in reference to President Ulysses S. Grant's possible bid for a third term and an extended stay in the White House. It showed the elephant in full stampede and about to fall into a deep pit marked "chaos." The ponderous pachyderm was labeled "Republican Vote." In each and every election era, a brand new crop of "wits" appear on the scene. There are also a great number who qualify for the title by only about 50 per cent. But I thought you might be interested in reading a few "political gems" that I have had flow across my editorial desk this past week. Mountain Home, Idaho News says: "One reason politics make such strange bedfellows is that all kinds of people enjoy the same bunk" Richwood, West Va., Nicholas Republican says: "In politics, if it's against you, it's a machine. If it's for you, it's an organization." Belton, Texas Journal says: "This newspaper has consistently endorsed John Connally for Governor. Please don't let this influence you; vote for him anyway." Thought for the week: A truly successful man always finds a way... others seek only for an excuse. eim Gazette hed Continuously in Orange County's "Number One" City For 92 Years ages Anaheim, California, Wednesday, November 7, 1962 VINS STATE; LOSES Kuchel Hanna Gov.

Stephenson today praised all police and fire departments, city officials, doctors and nurses who helped at last Monday's truck and train collision. He credited an inter-city crew of more than 60 with an outstanding team effort which saved lives and minimized the overall disaster. He listed the following voluteer groups: Orange County Forestry Division; Garden Grove Police and Fire Departments; Orange Police and Fire Departments; Fullerton Police and Fire Departments; California Highway Patrol; several nurses; and the Orange County Medical Association. To groups in other cities he said, "Please express our personal thanks to the members of your department who responded so readily and gave so willingly of time and efforts. This is just an other example of the fine cooperation which exists between all departments in our County." Chief Stephenson pointed with special pride to the Anaheim police officers' speed, clear thinking and skill displayed in task of removing debris and extricating the injured. In reviewing the team effort he stated, "To be assured that we have able, quick-thinking men who can team up and cope with any emergency situation; is something that will give confidence to our Anaheim citizens." O.C. Police Program Gets Financial Help SANTA ANA (OCNS) — A program designed to encourage higher standards in police training has also resulted in financial reward to Orange County. Gazette Honors Carrier Anaheim Council Gazette Honors Carrier Dave Dixon Is 'Outstanding' Newspaper Boy Another of the city's young businessmen was selected for the ranks of the successful by being named Gazette Newspaper Boy of the Week.

An ardent sports fan, Dave participates in all active sports and was a member of the Little League this past season. Proving his business ability, Dave recently purchased a 10-speed Continental bike on the "time plan." "It cost me $95 fully equipped," said Dave, "and I'm getting it paid for, slow but sure."
