For nearly 500 centuries, 100,000,000 gallons of water a minute have thundered over the crest of mighty Niagara Falls. And, at California Federal Savings, $900,000,000 protects savings accounts of over 375,000 savers in 50 states and 84 countries. California Federal's assets are only one of many strengths. Reserves are far higher than law requires. Management policies have successfully met all challenges of wars, booms and depressions for 37 years. There's safety, too, in the word "Federal"—the proud middle name of this great savings association. California Federal Savings is chartered and fully supervised by a permanent agency of the U.S. Government. Federal tells you accounts are automatically insured under provisions of the Federal Savings & Loan Insurance Corporation. High earnings are coupled with this complete safety of giant size. California Federal pays quarterly dividends at a 4.8% current annual rate.*That's a higher rate than national averages of all other types of investments. California Federal savings accounts may be opened in any amount from $5 ("beginner") accounts to a total of $30,000 or more in family accounts. Savers at California Federal include individuals, husbands and wives, trusts, corporations, clubs, churches, credit unions and fraternal groups.

Love is the hardest lesson in Christianity; but, for that reason, it should be most our care to learn it. — Penn They are the true disciples of Christ, not who know most, but who love most. — Frederick Spanheim Inquiring Reporter There is a great deal of attention being given to the question of urban renewal in every city of reasonable age. Anaheim, one of the oldest communities in this part of the nation, is facing the problem as well. What should be done to revitalize this more or less geographic center of the city's history, commerce and politics? To sample the thinking of Anaheim businessmen and customers the Gazette this week visited the Odyssey restaurant and interrupted leisure meals to ask: "What features would you like to see included in any renewal program for the downtown business area of our city?"

Los Angeles St. Being a downtown business man I am certainly concerned with the problem we all face in maintaining an efficient, attractive area for trade of all kinds. A few pointed suggestions certainly will not solve the overall problem, but I would like to see the ultimate plan include the removal of the railroad tracks and the elimination of truck parking, particularly near intersections where the lateral view is obscured. Interior parking facilities, located in the center rear of a business block, also has appeal as an efficient location for a shopper to reach many business places with a minimum of walking and carrying of packages. Mrs. Madylin Mitchell 10212 Wasco Road I know merchants have a real problem in trying to adjust their facilities to the problems of increased populations being served. As a customer I would like to see no parking on streets in the area or have the streets widened. It is really difficult to get around in the older sections of the city.

Broadway, Anaheim PHONE KE 5-4105 Rifle Range Work Pushed Senior Citizens Will Have 'Day' At Orange Fair The Anaheim Park and Recreation rifle range is getting a "face lifting" these days — and should be completed by March. Dick Kamphefner, Park Superintendent, commenting on the improvements of the rifle range, let it be known that the banks are being cleaned up, new concrete steps and lawn curbing have been installed. Ground cover shrubs and trees will be planted on the banks in the spring. One firing line shack has already been torn down and future plans calls for a new "firing line" building. A centerally located one story building will house rest rooms, gun lockers, a target storage room plus a range observation room. One firing line shed will remain standing indefinitely, Kamphefner said. "We hope to acquire funds in the 1963-64 budget to complete the entire project," he added. Kamphefner also stated that on the West end of the range, there will be provisions for a combination of eight archery targets along with area for more 22 rifle targets. The general lighting which will make it possible for classes to be held at night will come from four, 1500-watt, mercury-vapor lights. Also plug-in recepticles for spot-lighting. 22 rifle targets will be installed. With the completion of the "firing line" shed, the range will be long enough to host 50 meter National meets. The new range will be able to handle, 30 riflemen, all at the same time on the firing line. "One won't recognize the old rifle range," according to Kamphefner. "With lawn covering the rifle range floor along with shrubs beautifying the banks, we expect to have one of the nicest looking ranges in the area by this time SAN BERNARDINO — Senior citizens throughout Southern California are expected to converge on the National Orange Show grounds by the bus loads to help stage the fifth annual "Senior Citizens Jamboree" held in conjunction with the citrus classic which opens an 11-day run in San Bernardino March 14 and continues through March 24.
