Cerebral Palsy Association Open Drive to Find Best Treatment A long-range medical study to determine the effectiveness of the various types of treatment currently used in cerebral palsy has been launched by United Cerebral Palsy, Lee Stiles, president of United Cerebral Palsy Association of Orange County, announced. The Research and Educational Foundation of UCP has awarded a $32,000 grant to the American Academy for Cerebral Palsy, national professional organization of physicians and surgeons, for the first year of the study, Lee Stiles said. Parental Interest He pointed out that such a study will be of tremendous interest to every parent with a cerebral palsied child and to everyone working in the field of cerebral palsy. "So much new knowledge about cerebral palsy and so many schools of though have developed in the past decade," Lee Stiles said, "that new criteria must be established for the diagnosis and treatment of this condition." Treatment for the cerebral palsied involves a period of many years and a considerable outlay of money, he explained, and it is therefore most important that the different techniques and approaches to treatment be given a thorough scientific evaluation. 600,000 Victims There are 600,000 cerebral palsied persons in this country. Each year 10,000 babies are born with cerebral palsy, a condition most often caused by brain damage before or during birth. The UCP-sponsored study has already started under the guidance of the committee on evaluation and treatment of the American Academy for Cerebral Palsy, chaired by Dr. Henry H. Banks, clinical associate in orthopedic surgery, Harvard Medical School. The study will be conducted at the Children's Hospital Medical Center in Boston with Dr. Mihran O. Tachdjiam, former clinical fellow in orthopedic surgery, as principal investigator. Lee Stiles said that the investigations will seek to answer such questions as: What type of treatment should each patient have? At what age should treatment be instituted to obtain maximum benefit? Which patient s are amendable to treatment? What factors contribute to the success of any treatment? The large amount of clinical material available in the Cerebral Palsy Clinic of the Children's Hospital will be used for these purposes. In addition, during the coming year, patients will be admitted to the hospital for a complete and thorough evaluation by a team composed of an orthopedic surgeon, a neurologist, a pediatrician, psychologist, as well as consultants in speech and hearing. Functional performance of children with and without cerebral palsy will act as aards of reference.

Sincerely, Herb Eggett Executive Secretary Fullerton JC Sets Enrollment Record By DOUGLAS HUFF Attendance at Fullerton Junior College fell short of breaking the expected 10,000 student mark, college officials said this week. Ralph Snyder, Dean of Admissions and Records announced that the total enrollment was a record-breaking 9,634 students, an 8.32 per cent increase over last year's record of 8,894 students. New Students Of the total students enrolled this fall, 4,638 students are here for the first time while 5,096 are returning from last semester or a previous semester at FJC. Day students number 6,439, an increase of 8.6 per cent over last year's 5,929 students. Returning students number 3,188 while 3,251 of those students not returning, the majority have transferred to other four-year institutions. Enrollment is up 7.76 per cent from the 2,965 new students enrolled last year. Parking Problem Students enrolled in the extended day (evening) classes number 3,195, showing a 7.76 per cent gain over last years record enrollment of 2,965 students. The total includes 1,908 returning students and 1,287 new students. Parking is still a major problem for many students, despite the addition of another paved lot just off Lemon Ave., with students cars lining nearby streets for several blocks around the Hornet campus. In regards to the record-smashing number of students Snyder said: "We have about as many students as we can handle." New Look Construction has kept pace with the ever increasing enrollment. In 1954 the South Science Building was completed; in 1955 the Gymnasium received finishing touches. The Student Cafeteria, the counseling offices, the swimming pool and the Administrative Offices were all constructed in 1956. The Technical Education building and Fine Arts building were finished in 1959 while the new agriculture building and auto shop received finishing touches in 1962. This year marks Fullerton's 11st anniversary. Ten years ago the college had only 1,176 students. Printing Class Opens at H.S. Donald L.

In regards to the record-smashing number of students Snyder said: "We have about as many students as we can handle." New Look No construction on a large scale has been planned, reports Robert R. Gates, head of Fullerton's projection program. Remodeling inside certain buildings is being done for this school year, he added. Many administration buildings have gotten the "new look". In addition, newly remodeled and enlarged classrooms are being used for the first time this year. Physical education majors will use additions in both the men's and women's departments. The 31,326 square foot Women's Gymnasium will double as a multi-purpose room. New Building Choral presentations, piano classrooms, music appreciation facilities and college dances will all find their place in the sparkling new building. Planned for the future is a new Music Building, an addition of a Drama Center, more enlarged and remodeled classrooms and an increase in storage space.

Majority Stockholder She has been opposed in her direct and legal requests for right of legal counsel at board meetings, primarily by directors representing the James Irvine Foundation, which holds in public trust 51 percent of the Company's shares. As the Irvine Company's majority stockholder the Foundation selects at least four of the seven directors serving on the Company's shares. Board Member Granddaughter of the Company's founder, James Irvine, Joan Irvine is the only heir as well as stockholder of record serving as a Company director. She has been a board member since 1957. In 1962, joined by her cousin, Linda Irvine Gaede, and John MacLeod, she was able to elect a second director to assist her in the struggle for policy and administrative reforms in the Company. Gift To State As a result of Joan Irvine's efforts, the board has granted Irvine acreage to the state on which to locate the new University of California, Irvine. She has also forced agreement Her public criticism several years ago of Company leadership as "lacklustre and lackadaisical" led to a change in the presidency, and the employment of Charles S. Thomas as company head. Other Goals "We have made significant gains for the stockholders," she said succinctly in reviewing the situation, "but we still have goals to reach. And we shall reach them." In the matter of her writ of mandate action, Superior Judge Robert F. Kneeland handed down his dissenting opinion to the Joan Irvine plea last April 17, almost a year after the heiress' petition was submitted to the court on April 6, 1962: The Superior Court in its decision sustained the demurrer of the respondents to Miss Irvine's action on the ground the Company's largest individual stockholder had failed to state a cause of action. Other Action She also has another legal action in process against the Irvine Foundation, five other company directors, company Vice President Robert W. Long, and several land development companies. That action, also now in appeal, seeks the recovery and return to the Company of $1,105,960 based upon alleged improper land deals made in the exclusive Back Bay area of Newport Beach.
