State Fair Open Today
12-Day Run in Sacramento; Governor Opens Festivities
SACRAMENTO (Special) — Climaxing work-filled months of behind the scenes preparations, the spectacular California State Fair opened today for 12 action-packed days of fun and excitement for the more than a million visitors expected at this year's gala festival.
Opening day ceremonies, spotlighting a modern-day rocket, an ancient locomotive, Golder State residents in a bicycle parade and a man who really flys, started at 10 a.m. as Governor Edmund G. (Pat) Brown officially declared the Fair's opening.
Prominent Californians led state residents onto the grounds in a bicycle parade, marking the most unique opening in the 111 year history of the Fair.
Bell Aerosystems Company's famed Rocket Belt Man, head-lining the nightly Spectacular Grandstand Show, delighted Fairgoers of all ages as he soared over the gates of the Fair during opening day ceremonies.
Symbols of California's changing times, the historic C. P. Huntington locomotive and a modern-day rocket from the Aerojet General Corporation were accepted on behalf of all Californians by Brown and will be on display throughout the Fair.
Hundreds of shows, displays, exhibits and attractions are featured at this year's Fair, recognized today as the top cultural, educational and fun-filled event of its kind in the west.
Since its beginning in 1854, the Fair has grown from a small display staged by 10 pioneers in a San Francisco music hall to a vast panorama of wealth in agriculture, industry and culture which aptly reflects California's own phonomenal growth.
From its art displays and livestock exhibits to the fireworks and midway, the State Fair, running through September 13, will offer something for everyone.

Police Nab Suspect on Rape Case
An Orange busboy was in custody today on charges of attempted rape.
William Ralph Arling, III, has been charged with the attempted rape of a 35-year-old Orange housewife early this morning.
The assault reportedly took place at the victim's home.
The victim reported to police that she had a small party with herself and four men, including the suspect, from 9:30 p.m. last night to 3:30 a.m. this morning.
Two of the men left at 1 a.m. this morning and the other two left at 3:30 when the woman went to bed.
She told police that she was awakened at 6 a.m. by the suspect who then attempted to attack her.
The woman's 10-year-old son crawled out through a window and to a nearby house where he called police, officers said.
When officers arrived they observed the suspect running from the house and gave chase.
Hospitality consists in a little fire, a little food, and an immense quiet.

Cannon Appeal Reported incorrectly; Wins Okay
In last Wednesday's issue of the Orange Daily News, the decision on Paul Cannon's appeal to the City Council was advertantly given incorrectly. The story stated that the appeal was denied and three landowners, Oliver Johnson, George Lawson and Hubert Turnough were granted the right to see their three lots into six lots, all over the 6,000 square-foot minimum standard.
Actually, the council favored Paul Cannon, who made the appeal of the Planning Commission's decision to grant the variance. Here are the minutes, as comended by City Clerk Florence Phillips, which relate to the case.
In Re: Public Hearing on appeal number 36 — Paul Cannon, Variance 806: This being a time set for public hearing petition by Paul Cannon for appeal number 36 appealed by Planning Commission deeming a variance to require lot frontage and depth in conjunction with a proposed land division creating a private street upon these lots on R-1 zone, subject certain conditions.
Mr. Paul Cannon, 382 N. California, applicant, stated all reasons filed in appeal number 36, why variance should be denied.
Mr. Jerome Gach, 341 N. Magnolia St., stated there was sewer available for connection, and parking would be a problem because of narrow and that would not be good at all.
"Larry Sopel, 1324 Hickory Lane, stated he felt the street was narrow and parking would be a problem.
"Mr. Robert Fairbairn, Atty., representing applicants, stated there was a sewer at Palm Ave. and could be brought up to this property, but did not feel Planning Commission members meant for the developers to stand entire cost of bringing sewer line up, and other people on septic tanks should be required to hook into it and pay their share.
"Mr. George Lawson, 349 Magnolia, stated a block wall would be constructed around this development so would not interfere with any residents.
"Mrs. Oliver Johnson, 363 No. Magnolia, stated they were not approached to sell this land but were selling because it has become a hardship on them when they found out her husband could not park his truck on it.
"The mayor declared the hearing closed.
"Councilman Reynolds made the motion, seconded by Councilman Jordan, approval was given appeal No. 38 and Variance 806 granting land division creating three lots in an R-1 zone was denied."

Since learning of the need of the orphans in the famous Harry Holt orphanage several members of the local Baptist Church have adopted children from there.
The children, it was learned, have few toys. Often a child will love simply the part of a doll. Many dolls have been made from stockings and cloth balls, stuffed with old nylons, also have been popular.
