Miller Speaker In County Republican vice presidential election Elephant” Day, October candidate William E. Miller will 17, at Knott’s Berry Farm, be the featured speaker at “Op-Buena Park. NBC Drops Bomb In “Court” Series HOLLYWOOD (UPI) — NBC-TV Monday night unveiled three new half-hour situation comedies in the disguise of a so-called 90-minute series: “90 Bristol Court.” The idea is that the shows are linked by a common setting, a Southern California apartment court. If you can think of anything more sadistic than three situation comedies in a row, you are a born program packager. The opening half-hour is entitled “Karen,” and is about a teen-ager who is old enough to drive and date, who looks like a sure bet for a beauty queen title, and gives the impression of having once read the foreword of a book, maybe. Locally, at least, the opener was spiced by being preceded by a commercial plugging the movie “A House is Not a Home.” After that, everything was downhill. The premiere concerned how the young lady picked up the wrong blind date from Italy at Los Angeles Airport. As the fam cook; Bobo Lewis, a fine, professional comedienne, does her best to get in some tart licks. Other than that: strictly Hicksville. The second series is entitled “Harris Against The World”, and stars another highly accomplished performer, Jack Klugman, as a soft-hearted movie studio employee who has problems fighting the “system” and is not exactly an overpowering husband or father. Klugman, you may remember, won last season’s best-acting Emmy for his performance in an episode of “The Defenders” as an actor who could not get work because of past political affiliations. $700,000 Malpractice Suit Award Set Aside SAN DIEGO (UPI)—A $700,000 jury award in a malpractice suit has been set aside and boy after he suffered a head injury in an automobile accident in January of 1962. Miller's campaign speech will be the main feature of the 24 p.m. program. More than 2,000 Orange Countians are expected to attend the event which is sponsored by the Orange County Republican Central Committee. CONGRESSMAN MILLER Veep Hopeful To Speak The New York congressman appearance will be the only one scheduled in Orange County before the Nov. 3 general election. His wife and daughters are expected to accompany him. Tickets for the event may be obtained from any Republic headquarters in Orange County or at Knott’s Berry Farm Buena Park. 500 Teach For Higher $700,000 Malpractice Suit Award Set Aside SAN DIEGO (UPI)—A $700,000 jury award in a malpractice suit has been set aside and a new trial ordered by Superior Court Judge James CM Toothaker. Judge Toothaker took the action Friday on grounds of misconduct by the plaintiff's counsel and insufficient evidence against one of the defendants. The judge presided at the ended Aug. 12 with what was believed to have been the largest award ever granted in the state to a single plaintiff in a personal injury case. Attorney James Boccardo of San Jose, was charged with misconduct by Judge Toothaker, who also criticized him and his link, for asserting there was "a conspiracy on the part of the defendants and their counsel" in the case. Mr. and Mrs. Richard Lehtola of Norman, Okla., who formerly lived in nearby National City, originally sought $1 million on behalf of their son, Raymond. The couple claimed that three doctors and the Chula Vista Community Hospital were negligent in their treatment of the boy after he suffered a head injury in an automobile accident in January of 1962. The suit alleged that the defendants failed to diagnose a brain injury and as a result the youngster's legs were amputated needlessly. The action also contended that the boy is blind and deaf as a result of the defendants' negligence and that he will be crippled physically and mentally for the rest of his life. A jury of six men and six women awarded the Lehtolas $450,000 damages from Dr. Herbert Drew, a pediatrician, and Dr. Manuel Barba, a neurosurgeon, for the child's brain damage. Dr. Drew and Dr. Roland G. Brown, a vascular specialist, were ordered to pay $250,000 for the amputations. The jury ruled in favor of the hospital and assessed no damages. Judge Toothaker said he believed there was insufficient evidence to support a judgment against Dr. Brown who, he said, was not called into the case until after the condition of the boy's legs were irreversible. Teen-Ager Grabs Important Part who had previously been a successful "advertising man," with absolutely no theatrical experience, walked into Melodyland Theatre one day last week and within a half hour had grabbed off the important role of Betty Grable's young son in the theatre's current attraction, "High Button Shoes." What makes the event even more remarkable is the fact Colyer Dupont of Anaheim, that Colyer is only thirteen years old, and his career as an ad-man had been confined to handing out handbills for which he would receive $50.00 a week. The slim, handsome, blonde youngster decided suddenly to go on the stage and walked into the theatre cold, then announced to an apprentice that he wanted to be an actor, and insisted on seeing the casting director! 500 Teachers For Higher Education PAWTUCKET, R.I.

Jensen, Executive Officer of the State Motor Vehicle Pollution Control Board. “The things to watch for,” Jensen said, “are fumes coming out of the engine when the car is idling (lift the hood to check), oil on top of the engine, rough idle, excessive stalling in traffic, and engine hesitation. “If any of these are present, ask your mechanic or service station man to check the crankcase ventilation system valve and tubes,” Jensen said. “This can be done in a moment or two and save unnecessary concern over engine performance.” He said all that may be needed is to clean or replace the valve. Cost for this work averages about $2.50. Approved crankcase devices have been on all new cars registered in California, starting with the 1961 model. Many used cars are also equipped, but the bulk of the used car population will come under the mandatory installation phase of the law next year. Jensen said that starting in 1966 every car with a crankcase device, and registered in a metropolitan county will require an annual inspection at an official station. He pointed out that the device is like any other part of the car needing periodic servicing. He said ESS will place calls faster and easier than the elec-mechanical equipment now in use. It's a transistorized computer specialized for switching calls, rather than computing. Smith was talking about change, and how the telephone industry makes changes to pave the way for progress. "We frequently must discard ways of doing things and introduce new and better methods," he pointed out. "For example, the old '113' and '114' service codes will be changed next month in Orange County." He said the new codes—"411" for information and "611" for repair service — will be inaugurated coincident with delivery of a new telephone directory No. 1. The change will be made for two reasons. First, it's a step in ultimately making these numbers uniform for all customers throughout the United States. Second, it will permit the future production of innovations using a numerical one." For example, eliminating the possibility of dialing errors. The service range "frees" that digit for these developments. The great majority of telephone users make an easy adjustment to their dialing habits when a service change is introduced," Smith reported. Typical of these was Thomas E. Moore, new speech and drama teacher this fall at Troy High School in Fullerton. Moving from student status into a career, Moore started teaching under the watchful eyes of Dr. Webb Wilson, Troy principal, and Dr. Kenneth Doane, chairman of the Division of Education at Cal-State Fullerton. According to Dr. Doane, Moore is one of 40 new teachers who obtained credentials on the secondary level while the other 100 secured elementary credentials. An additional 28 trained and credentialed student teachers this year have decided to postpone teaching for family or other reasons. Accounting for the remaining graduates who started teaching this year, Burke reported that 34 are teaching in 18 Los Angeles County school districts, and two in Riverside County districts. Fresno, El Dorado, and Santa Clare County districts are also represented in the hirings, and one is employed by a school district in Arizona. "All this year's student teachers who wanted to teach have contracts." Burke said. "This speaks well for the high professional level of their training and the careful screening processes which are employed by the College in the selection of those who are deemed qualified for the training." 2¢ DRIES A HEAP OF WASH.
