COMMUNITY NEWS FOR YOUR OWN COMMUNITY Irvine Campus Is Taking Shape 8 Buildings Under Construction The University of California at Irvine is beginning to take shape as eight major academic structures are well along in construction. The buildings rise from a height from one to five stories on 1,510 acres of rolling hills off McAnthur Blvd. Between Newport Beach and Santa Ana. The campus will be ready to open on schedule in September of next year to an estimated 1,000 students, Chancellor Daniel G. Aldrich, Jr., chief campus officer, said following an inspection tour of the construction site this week. Buildings under construction, Dr. Aldrich noted, will accommodate as many as 2,000 students. Total cost of UCI facilities at the time of opening is estimated at about $20 million. Dr. Aldrich reported that most of the pre-formed concrete structures are at the roofing stage. The University he said, will add to these initial buildings at an expansion rate paced to accommodate an additional 1,000 students each year, until the maximum enrollment of 27,500 is reached about 1990. The Irvine Company, owners of the surrounding 88,000-acre ranch and donors of 1,000 acres of the campus site, plans to be university city designed for angin-construction of an adjacent ultimate population of 150,000. Dr. Aldrich said voter approval November 3 of the state construction bond measured for higher education and other facilities has assured sufficient funds to provide furnishings, equipment, landscaping and utilities for the September opening date. Loan funds are being used to construct residences cottages which will accommodate total of 400 single student 100 apartment units for ried students and junior in time for the campings. The loans will be from rental fees. University officials, quartered in interim of the northern edge of thepus near the Orange Airport, about three miles land from the city of N Beach, will accept tions from prosper "charter" students until 1,1965. Classes will be offering the first year to fresh sophomores, juniors, and graduate students, the academic program in the College of Arts, Letters sciences with five di biological sciences, fin humanities, physical s and social sciences. Also to be in operat Ranchers, Farmers Turn To Public Law Spokesmen for various Orange County farm groups today expressed little optimism that the bracero program would be extended past the Dec. 31 deadline. Instead they appeared to be pinning their hopes on an enlargement of Public Law 414 as a possible solution to the expected shortage of agricultural labor with the departure of the braceros from California. They greeted with some pessimism press reports quoting new Republican Sen. George Murphy as saying he would immediately start working on an extension of Public Law 78 under which Mexican workers enter California to perform "stoop labor." Despite Murphy's statement that he would press for an extension of the program, the spokesmen expressed the opinion that an enlargement of Public Law 414 would help solve some of their labor problems. Study Cited They cited a recent study by the University of California which projected the state's agricultural labor requirements, by region and for the 12 pertinent crops, for each month of the year from 1965-69 and compares them with actual use during 1963. The study revealed that only in the production of tomatoes can substantial reductions in harvest labor needs be anticipated because of a breakthrough in mechanization. Reductions in cultural labor needs for non-peak period work are projected for many crops in such activities as labor for pruning, thinning and weeding. According to the report, labor under Public Law 414, the Act. It is upon this law that Orange County farm groups are pinning their hopes. Like Public Law 78, which governs the Bracero Program, P. L. 414 permits the importation of temporary workers from abroad. During 1963 almost 60,000 aliens entered the United States under specific sections of Public Law 414 to perform temporary labor. More than half of these, however, were employed in non-agricultural activities. Of the 26,584 agricultural workers admitted for temporary employment, more than 50 per cent were from the British West Indies and were employed primarily by Florida growers, although substantial numbers were used in truck gardens and tobacco fields in New Jersey and Connecticut. The remainder included 810 Japanese and 124 Filipinos to work primarily on California farms, and 411 Basque sheep herders who were employed on Western United States ranches. Aliens entering the U.S. under the temporary labor provisions of P. L. 414 are classified as nonimmigrants and may not become citizens. The law defines such a worker as "an alien having residence in a foreign country which he has no intention of abandoning ... who is coming temporarily to the United States to perform temporary services or labor if unemployed persons capable of performing such service or labor cannot be found in this country...". 5a P. L. 414 is an employer Classes will be offering the first year to free sophomores, juniors, and graduate students, and the academic program at the College of Arts, Letters sciences with five diary biological sciences, fine humanities, physical science and social sciences.

The study revealed that only in the production of tomatoes can substantial reductions in harvest labor needs be anticipated because of a breakthrough in mechanization. Reductions in cultural labor needs for non-peak period work are projected for many crops in such activities as labor for pruning, thinning and weeding. According to the report, these declines will tend to reduce total man-hour requirements to produce and harvest crops, but will have little effect on peak labor requirements. Further conclusions reached by the report are that Californians drawing unemployment insurance or welfare payments are not likely to be attracted in sufficient numbers to fill the seasonal labor gap on farms and groves after the bracero program ends. Students Are No Solution Also, while the utilization of students is extremely helpful, labor from this source will not be nearly sufficient because requirements of crops utilizing braceros reach a high point while they are at school, the report stated. The months of January, April and June are expected to be the most critical periods in Orange County as regards a shortage of farm labor is concerned. Last January, over 59 per cent of the labor force used to harvest the county's celery crop were foreign workers. Over 70 per cent of the labor force used to harvest the county's lemon crop last April were Mexican workers. Last June, over 62 per cent of the workers employed in the peak Orange picking season were workers from other countries. Only One Alternative The report pointed out that the only alternative source of labor at this time is the temporary importation of foreign la- as nonimmigrants and may not become citizens. The law defines such a worker as "an alien having residence in a foreign country which he has no intention of abandoning ... who is coming temporarily to the United States to perform ... temporary services or labor if unemployed persons capable of performing such service or labor cannot be found in this country." 5a P. L. 414 is an employer government contractual arrangement. This differs from P. L. 78 which is a government-to-government approach. Employers using P. L. 414 contract with the foreign government directly after meeting requirements laid down by the U.S. Attorney General and the U.S. Secretary of Labor. Certain sections of P. L. 414 limit contracts for employment to six months, although they may be renewable for longer periods. Secretary of Labor William Wirtz recently stated that there is a possibility that federal authorities will permit the use of P. L. 414 to import Mexican farm workers, if sufficient domestic farm workers cannot be obtained. Wirtz said that authorities first will see that "everything possible" is done to replace the Braceros with U.S. citizens next year. "But if they can't be, we will turn to Public Law 414." Wirtz defined "Everything possible" as including a government plan to route workers from area to area as harvests begin and to provide them with the attraction of full-time work. The Labor Department is also looking into the use of government manpower training programs and the Anti-Poverty Program as ways of getting more citizens to work on farms. Farm leaders and organizations are now proceeding with negotiations to determine if acceptable conditions can be worked out whereby seasonal labor may be available to them after the end of this year. Taxpayer's questions about the tax bills are down by one-third as compared to year, according to Acting sensor Edward L. Jones. Jones disclosed that sensor's tax information has only received 1,360 from the 311,000 property owners during the first five after the bills were received. Calls received during same period last year 1,906. The downward trend used last week when the average number of phone dropped to about 190. On calls were received day, Election Day.

Complaints are down on a general, but slight, increase in taxes through our county, paced by the six jump in county rates. Property taxes for 1964-total $167.4 million this year. The total is $24 million than it was a year ago. Jones noted that all complaints and questions dropped, the center will main in operation until December first-half install become delinquent.

Historic Climb of El Capitan Recounted By Orange Resident An Orange man, one of the top ten rock climbers in the world, recounted details of his assaults on some of the highest peaks in the world during an interview yesterday. His latest ascent was the unconquered North American Wall of El Capitan, Yosemite National Park's world famous peak. The four-man group climbed about 275 feet a day starting when the sun hit them and continued climbing for about 12 hours. The group climbed after dark on some days to maintain their daily footage. Yosemite Cited "The best rock climbing in the United States is in Yosemite." In Peru, Frost fell in foot crevice that was hidder some snow and bruincknuckles. Queries On Taxes Down From 1963 Taxpayer's questions and implaints about the 1964-65 tax bills are down by nearly three-third as compared to last year, according to Acting Assistant Edward L. Jones. Jones disclosed the assessor's tax information office as only received 1,360 calls from the 311,000 property owners during the first five days after the bills were received. Calls received during the time period last year were 906. The downward trend continued last week when the daily average number of phone calls owed to about 190. Only 134 calls were received Tuesday, Election Day. The tax center, with 10 operators on duty the week of Oct. 30, pared its staff to seven operators last week. Complaints are down despite general, but slight, increase taxes throughout the county, paced by the six-cent imp in county rates. Property taxes for 1964-65 will total $167.4 million this year, the total is $24 million higher than it was a year ago. Jones noted that although complaints and questions have owed, the center will remain in operation until Dec. 10, the date first-half installments come delinquent. An Orange man, one of the top ten rock climbers in the world, recounted details of his assaults on some of the highest peaks in the world during an interview yesterday. His latest ascent was the unconquered North American Wall of El Capitan, Yosemite National Park's famous peak. Tom Frost, 28, of 525 Handy Street, said that the North American Wall rises the final 21700 feet of the El Capitan's 7,594 feet altitude. Frost suffered bruised knuckles in two short falls of ten feet during his climb last week. Clerical Error Causes Delay In Murder Case The case of an Orange man charged with murdering his wife was dismissed by the Municipal Court this week and was indicted by the Orange County Grand Jury on a charge of first degree murder. Thomas Floy Jessee, 34, was "Cleared" of the charge because a clerical worker failed to notify the jail that he had been bound over by the Grand Jury indictment. The jail was aware however that the case in Municipal Court had been dismissed. Jesse was scheduled to appear in Superior Court yesterday to be arraigned on the Grand Jury indictment but Public Defender Redrick Riccardi asked for a continuance until the 13th of November. Jesse is accused of slaying his wife, Mardell,, with two shotgun blasts in their apartment at 1201 North Shattuck on Oct. 14. Police have advanced no motive for the slaying. The four-man group climbed about 275 feet a day starting when the sun hit them and continued climbing for about 12 hours. The group climbed after dark on some days to maintain their daily footage. Yosemite Cited "The best rock climbing in the United States is in Yosemite and I was climbing with the best three rock climbers in the world," Frost said proudly. "Climbing is my job. Engineering is the way I make money to climb, and photography is my hobby," Frost said. "I have to go back to work now to earn more money for another climbing venture, the location is yet undetermined," Frost said. "The cost of climbing is actually low since most of the climbers own all the equipment necessary," Frost stated. "Most of the cost of an expedition is for food," Frost added. Recounts Other Adventures Frost turned to other adventures when he explained about a trip to Nepal this summer with Sir Edmund P. Hillary, first conqueror of Mt. Everest. Frost was a member of a ten-man team organized by Hillary to build two school houses for the people of Nepal. In my opinion Hillary does more with a few thousand dollars in establishing goodwill than the United States does with the $10 million dollars in foreign aid they give Nepal each year," Frost declared. "Hillary is there now building schools," Frost was in Nepal with Hillary for three months and in the same time the group climbed several Himalaya Mountains. A friend of Hillary sent out letters to a few climbers telling them of Hillary's plans. Frost and friends went to Utah where Hillary was camped while on an American camping trip and discussed their house" expedition. Hillary chose two Amends—one of them Frost. On his way home from French Alps, In Peru, Frost fell in foot crevice that was hidden some snow and brunk knuckles. "Peru is much more sible than the Himalayas consequently more climb done there." Frost said. "A beginner in this could learn mountain climbing by joining the Sierra which holds outings and rock climbing section," said. "I climbed with them number of years," Frost Mr. and Mrs. Thom Frost, recall that their sensitivity of his drive to either of his two chosen sailing and mountain cliffs They said that after graduated from Newportbor High School he entered national championships in Snipe Class Sailing competition and won. He repeated in He also swept the junior championships took second place in the competition at Monaco and the Italian Challenge San Remo, Italy. Tom also won the New Beach fleet champion at Pacific Coast Fleet Championship in the Snipe Class same year. During his senior year Stanford University, he met the Alpine Club and left for the mountains. The elder Frost is a late agent and Mrs. Frost to school at Chapman to get her primary teachers. Tom's youngerer, Jeff, 14, is a student Yorba Linda High School When Tom isn't climbed is a mechanical engineer.

Third Degree Burns Still clinging precariously to life with third degree burns in Palm Harbor Hospital is the boys sister, Jenny Lee, 4, and their aunt Lucy Callison, 3, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Callison, 5100 Kent Drive, scene of the explosion. The Callisons are the grandparents of the Losack children. According to information pieced together by police and fire reports, the three Losack children and Lucy Callison were in the garage with another Callison son, Jim, 20; a friend Jim McLaughlin, 21, of the Kent Drive address, and Callisons flame. The little children were reported sitting and watching the adults cleaning out the garage after treating some auto parts with car solvent when the explosion happened. Fire officials, still investigating the fire, believe it was caused by the highly combustible fumes coming in contact with the gas water heater flame. Fire officials said the garage apparently was used to repair and rebuild autos and "hot rods. Inside the undamaged house adjoining the garage, hot rod trophies adorned walls. Jim Callison, his father and a neighbor, Leonard Rene Blixt, pulled three of the children from the fire. The charred body of Gary Wayne Losack was found among tools and auto parts in the garage after the fire was extinguished. The second Losack child, whose family lives at 1321 Huron St., died in the hospital yesterday. Tots Burned Elsewhere in the county, two 18-month-old children and a mother suffered second degree burns and a Huntington Beach man narrowly escaped death from fires. Sunday's victims included: Mrs. Edith J. Finn of 1714 W. Willets St. Santa Ana. Elizabeth Finn, 18 months. Dale Osuka, 8 months of 14332 Hacienda St., Huntington Beach. Huntington Beach firemen said Tom Gallovan of 470 Ocean Ave. narrowly escaped death when pulled from his neck. Neither Mark nor another brother Kevin, 3, was burned in the fire. Smelled Smoke Huntington Beach firemen said Gallavan was rescued from his apartment by John Panksley, a neighbor, who said he smelled smoke as he was going to work. Panksley said he found Gallavan asleep on the couch after he broke into the apartment. Firemen reported the blaze was caused by beans in the oven becoming overheated and bursting into flames. Oral Hygiene Stressed At Local School Students at West Orange Elementary School and other schools in the Orange Unified School District are learning the value of good oral hygiene. "Our children learn that they need their teeth for a beautiful smile, to chew their food, for correct speech and for good health," according to Mrs. Lois Fenley, West Orange public health nurse. "We try to teach our pupils how important it is to brush their teeth 'the way they grow and to choose nutritious food,' Mrs. Fenley said today. Americans consume about 120 pounds of sugar per capita annually. Reduction of sugar is one factor in curbing tooth decay, the nurse added. Mrs. Fenley instructs children in oral hygiene by the addage "experience is the best teacher." "Children remember 90 percent of the experiences they have," Mrs. Fenley stressed. "I give each child a cracker to eat and then each one is given a piece of an apple and they always report how clean their mouth feels after eating the apple," she said. They learn that an apple is a "toothbrush' as are other detergent foods which the youngsters can bring to school in their lunch bag," the nurse com- Resident rip and discussed the "school house" expedition. Hillary chose two Americans—one of them Frost. On his way home from Nepal, Frost stopped in Peru and the French Alps. In Peru, Frost fell into a 50 foot crevice that was hidden under some snow and bruised his knuckles. "Peru is much more accessible than the Himalayas and consequently more climbing is done there," Frost said. "A beginner in this area should learn mountain climbing by joining the Sierra Club which holds outings and has a rock climbing section," Frost said. "I climbed with them for a number of years," Frost added. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas B. Frost, recall that their son's intensity of his drive to excel in either of his two chosen sports, tailing and mountain climbing. They said that after Tom graduated from Newport Harbor High School he entered the national championships in the Snipe Class Sailing competition and won. He repeated in 1954. He also swept the national junior championships in 1953, took second place in the world competition at Monaco and won the Italian Challenge Cup at San Remo, Italy. Tom also won the Newport Beach fleet champion and the Pacific Coast Fleet Championship in the Snipe Class in the same year. During his senior year at Stanford University, he joined the Alpine Club and left the sea for the mountains. The elder Frost is a real estate agent and Mrs. Frost goes to school at Chapman College to get her primary teaching credentials. Tom's younger brother, Jeff, 14, is a student at Torba Linda High School. When Tom isn't climbing he is a mechanical engineer. Sunday's victims included: Mrs. Edith J. Finn of 1714 W. Willets St. Santa Ana. Elizabeth Finn, 18 months. Dale Osuka, 8 months of 14332 Hacienda St., Huntington Beach. Huntington Beach firemen said Tom Gallovan of 470 Ocean Ave. narrowly escaped death when pulled from his blazing apartment by a neighbor shortly before 7 p.m. Mrs. Finn and her daughter suffered second-degree burns when an explosion in their home was touched off as fumes from gasoline being used to clean clothes reached a water heater pilot light. The two were taken to Orange County General Hospital and treated for burns on the hands, arms and faces. The Osuka child was burned when an older brother Mark, playing with a cigarette lighter, set fire to clothing in a bedroom closet. Firemen said John Meola, 34, and Dale Yates, 24, who lived nearby smashed a front window in the Osuka home and rescued the 18-month-old child from his blazing bedroom. Jorja Carrison Named Princess At Fullerton Jorja Carrison of Orange has been elected freshman princess for next weekend's homecoming activities at Fullerton Junior College. Miss Carrison, a graduate of Orange High School, is majoring in physical education at the College. A parade and football game will be held next Saturday afternoon followed by a dance in the evening. "I give each child a cracker to eat and then each one is given a piece of an apple and they always report how clean their mouth feels after eating the apple," she said. They learn that an apple is a "toothbrush" as are other detergent foods which the youngsters can bring to school in their lunch bag," the nurse continued. Mrs. Fenley said the major health problem of school age children is the need for dental health education. "在Orange Unified School district，health education is a continuous process for effective leaving now as well as in the future," she concluded. Badham Sets Vote Getting Record in State Champion vote-getter in California is Assemblyman Robert E. Badham (R-Newport Beach) who tallied more votes last Tuesday than any other Assemblyman in any race in the state's history, records showed today. Badham seized the previous record from Carlos Bee who as Alameda County's Assemblyman tallied 101,462 votes in 1960 and so set the record. Voters in Badham's 71st Assembly District gave him 104,-318 ballots and the title of "champion vote-getter." Badham paid high tribute to his campaign workers and his supporters in his district for returning him to Sacramento with such a tremendous margin of victory. He said he was "very gratified" with such support.
