The building of a new city hall is, in view of the council, overshadowed at the moment by the priority of the new convention hall and auditorium. Now that the tax money has begun to accumulate, businessmen who are contributing it are pressing the city for action, they say. City Manager Keith Murdock was instructed to consider the investigation of possible sites for the convention building as a "first priority." Murdock told the council, during an informal discussion, he hoped to have an answer for them within three weeks. Only a few sites are generally considered by the council as falling within the criteria established. They wish sufficient acreage adjacent to the preferred Disneyland parking. The question of financing the convention hall has not yet been determined. Several suggestions for private financing have been made to the council and they also have the capability of asking for general obligation bonds. Legion Ball Journey Set For August 1 Edwin S.

The list of those asked to submit predictions includes leaders from government, the armed forces, industry, and educational institutions. Their predictions will be locked in a box made of the stainless steel used in the skin of Atlas missiles and space launch vehicles. The box then will be sealed into the concrete seven-time capsule, not to be opened again for 100 years when the predictions can be checked against existing conditions to see if they actually came true.
