With every grade school room in Anaheim filled, some with as many as 50 pupils, the board of trustees last night called a $110,000 bond election Oct 27 "for the purpose of raising money for purchasing school lots, for building or purchasing one or more school building, for insuring school buildings, for supplying school buildings with furniture or necessary apparatus and for improving school grounds." The bonds bearing five per cent will be retired at the rate of $10,000 each for 10 years. The school board plans to purchase five acres and erect a 12-room building. The site has not been decided upon. Construction would start as soon as bonds are sold, probably in December. Despite the addition of nine rooms this fall, the school board is now attempting to rent additional space. The enrollment is 1600, an increase of $50 over a year ago. "Unless rooms can be rented," said Supt. C. C. Smith today, "when the peak enrollment comes in February it will be necessary to hold half-day sessions in some rooms. There are now 53 teachers." "This will be the first school bonds voted upon in four years. The new Intermediate-bldg. was constructed by tax money by day labor at considerable saving. A complete and detailed financial statement on this building will be prepared shortly." "Because the school board has been conservative, the district is well within its bonded limit. After voting the $110,000 now considered, the district could still issue $173,000 on the present valuation. The polls for the election will be open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., at Intermediate school.

QUEZON CANDIDATE DEFEATS SUMULONG A. O. & L. ENDS ITS BIGGEST SEASON Old Glory will not fly from the flag pole at the Anaheim Orange and Lemon Ass'n packing house tomorrow, which means that the last of the valencia crop of oranges has been shipped and the season officially closed. The flag is raised only on certain holidays and the days the house is operating. A total of 750 carloads of oranges and lemons have been shipped from this house. This compares with 544 cars last year, an output which tallied almost exactly with the estimate made the first of the year. One of the actual features of this house is that of making accurate estimates not only of their own output, but that of the entire district. Manager G. W. Sandilands on being asked if it were not true that his house was the first to wind up its valencia season stated: "It is not a question with us of being first to start or finish any season, but to conduct our operations in such a manner as will return the highest proceeds to our members, according to the prevailing conditions as we see them." The Association will proceed at once to overhaunt the plant, with the expectation of opening the first of December for the usual short holiday run of navels. Estimates for the new crop for next year from the Anaheim Orange and Lemon Ass'n shows that they will ship in excess of 1000 carloads and with their capacity this can be handled to the very best advantage.

A proper city plan, including correct zoning, is Anaheim's principal problem, in which the city's other problems are involved, according to Secretary George W. Reid of the C. O., who assumed office Monday. At the same time Reid made it clear that it was for the membership of the chamber and not for himself to decide on the plan to be adopted by the chamber.

His services would cost only $500 per month and would be invaluable. Reid believes.
