Helvey, Eli Madely, Mrs. Deatz, Riley Woods, and Mr. Jbnes of the B r &* zcjs County Health Unit. iSome of the proposals consid ered by the committee were: ifj 1) The establishment of a joint jSajnitary fill for the use of both hp College and the City of Col- ere Station. The present seper- latfe dumps used for the disposal of; garbage are inadequate and present a possible menace to the aeplth of the community. That an effort be made by th; citizens to comply with regu* aliens concerning containers. Link ed with this is a plea by the collec tors that bulky container's be bundl ed to facilitate collections. 8) A plea to the citizens to aid n j enforcing pet ordinances. The lafge number of unlicensed and imjvaccinated animals are a danger tolthe children of College- Station. )4) An urge that owners of va cant lots clear these lots of trash anjd weeds. The city has equip ment available for cutting wee^S, anjd will clear any lot of weeds * a plight fee, which is to cover ji} Problems in the present sys tem of sewage disposal, and ten- , :a|ive plans for more effective treatment of sewage disposoL “) Present problems concerning inage, which can be alleviated the citizens themselves, by ijeep- present facilities clear of tjrash rubbish. « ) That the City of Bryan he d to alter their present system sewage disposal from the area und the Country Club. T#e ewage, though deposited inside; the itiy limits, present a menace torthe health of College Station citizens. 8) That private citizens cease using public alleys for private dumping and storage places. The present practices of blocking these alleys hinders effective collection of trash. 9) That incorporation of cer tain outlying communities within the city be urged by the members of these communities in order that they may take advantage of better facilities for garbage and sewage disposal. 10) That the County Commis sioner’s Court be urged to enforce sanitation in areas surrounding the city, and cause the end of sulh practices as dumping trash just barely outside the city limits apd near food-vending establishments. Also brought to the committee’s attention was the objection of many persons concerning the recent or dinance prohibiting the kooping Of animals, except certain pets, in the city. The objections seem to center about the fact that A.&M. College keeps livestock practically in the center of the city. An administrative officer of the college reported that these animals are inspected regularly and have been sprayed with DDT. He also stated that these animals will be moved out of the city as soon as neiw facilities for them are com pleted. j , k ! 1 A special meeting of the City Council will be held at the City Hall, corner of Church Street arid Old Highway 6, at 7:30 p.m. Tues day^ July 6.

R. Brayton, director i>f the school. The first of these meetings was held in 1930, when J —*■170 men from 76 cities- attended. This year Brayton expects approx imately 600 men from some 325 cities and has already received word from several out-of-state firemen wishing to attend. The trainees will be instructed by approximately 65 departmental instructors from Texas’ Cities and specialists from major industries interested in fire prevention and control. The trainees’ day will consist of two peiriods of four hours each, made up of a one hour lecture fql- lowed by three hours field work. This year for the first time they will handle major oil and gasoline fires, using special new equipment and methods of extinguishing such as “water-wetters, powders, and special fog-streams.” They will al so work with baled cotton and paper, rubber fires, butane tank fires, gasoline “spill-fires”, and electrical fires. The annual meeting is held un der the jurisdiction of the Indus trial Extension Service and spon sored by the State Firemen and Firemarshalls Association which cooperated with the State Board for Vocational Education. The fire men and marshalls of Texas are making every effort tdjeut down the enormous lossW HL* and pro perty in Texas due^$T fire. Last year over $23,000,000 >n property and approximately 500 person’s (not counting Texas City Disas ter), lost their lives because of fire. The trainees will be housed in dormitories No. 15, 16 and 17 with Walton * Hall held in reserve for overflow. Courses are to be offer ed in basic, advanced, building in spectors, and instructors methods. ■■■ ■ eserve Officers Aictive In Home ation Training ^eserve army officers from tl n-College Station area parti- ted Saturday and Sunday in se I of a seven-phase home n training program--" which last into September, accord- to Captain Albert W.

The men of the cavalry are be-; ginning to wonder if they aren’t being converted into “paddlefeet.” So far the armored cavalry trans portation! has been two swelling “dogs” incased in combat boots most- of the time.

As a result George Marble of C Troop Cavalry is currently known as “Indian Scout” Sofne of the Aggies at Fort Bel voir :have sent travel folders as a “float out” to the men here. But already the cavalrymen are plan ning to return the favor. They are going to send the engineers a vivid description of Mom’s home cook ing after they go home during the July 4th holidays. The Aggie cadets at Hood gave the other trainees a sample of that old Aggie spirit the other day with a yell practice.

Di West Coast Earthquake Near; Towns Prepa re for Emergency By EDDIE SMITH “Hundreds Die in Los Angeles Earthquake.” "Violent Tremor Panics San Francisco.” No, these aren’t the latest news, dispatches from the Associated Press, but seismologists say they may well be in the near future.) The series of shopks which struck the West Coaet of Japan and resulted in an estipiated 3,100 dead Monday has caused renewed speculation on the possibilities of another disaster in California such as occurred in 1906 in San Fran cisco. According to an eminent West Coast seismologist, an earth quake equal to the one: that struck San Francisco in 1906 could hap pen tomorrow and is sure to* hap pen in the next 20 years. Earthquakes are nothing new to Californians. The*} have oc curred there regularly for over a century. Since 1906, fortunate- - ly, they have confined their ac- * tivity to sparsely populated areas, causing little or no loss of life and minimum muteriul damage. The speculation is over the great » San Andreas fault which runs the length of the state and narrowly misses San. Francisco and Los Angeles. If this ancient crack, whose Pacific side has been creep ing toward the ocean at the ge ologically rapid rate of two inches per year, should reach its break ing point, then two of the nation’s largest cities might easily suffer. However, officials of San Fran cisco and Los Angeles have not been idly standing by. In the Bay City, a high-pressure fire protec tion system, independent of the domestic water supply, and with all its main pipes laid in streets where there were no breaks in 1906, stands ready for service if such an emergency should present itself, [ Two salt water pumping sta tions, located on a solid rock foundation near the bay, stand ready to supplement the system if necessary. In Los Angeles, er Emergency Cc a ted wi iiS.il..;: a Major Disas- Council was c re power to supervise re in any of the fifteen nto which the city has [for that purpose. i A building ordinance restricts the number of stories of all struc tures to a safe figure, the fifteen story Los Angeles City Hall tow ering over all other buildings in the city. Most buildings are of steel and concrete construction a 1 though frame houses are equally safe for their occupants. The most danger ous materials are brick, tile, stuc co, and plaster L which crumble easily when under a strain. Structures built of these ma terials invite calamities such as the one that occurred Monday in Fukui, Japan, where a crowded theater collapsed and only three • persons escaped. The possibility of that occurring in this coun try makes the cost of any pre caution a small price to pay. The dubious advantage of an earthquake in Los Angeles is the unique newsreel covenige afford ed the public.
