goals of reducing the present approximate 4.5 per cent level of infection to one per cent of 14-year-olds who react posi­ tively to tuberculin by 1970.

SPONSORED ON a county- wide basis by the Interagency Council for Tuberculosis Con­ trol. Dr. Arnold L.

Revenue bonds, which would require the auditorium to pay for itself through use, or gen­ eral obligation bonds, which must be approved by the city's voters, have been the most popular means of financing I fo"«n« on "Making Democracy such facilities.

DR. FREED SAID the sim­ ple tuberculin test involves putting a small drop of harm­ less liquid under the first lay­ er of skin on the child's arm. A follow-up reading of the test is made a few days later and if there Is significant redness or swelling, a person is assumed to have a "positive" reaction.

A positive reaction, he add­ ed, does not mean than an in­ dividual has tuberculosis but it docs shows that at some time the person has come in con­ tact with someone who has ac­ tive disease.

He concluded that the test Is painless and urged all parents of eighth grade students in the area to complete the special parent consent forms and re­ turn them to the school. This project U endorsed by the Los Angeles County Trustees Assn., district PTA councils, health departments and tuber­ culosis and health associations.

J"Irresponsible attacks on

city officials by equally irre­ sponsible City Council candi­ dates are hurting every citi­ zen in this community." Coun­ cil candidate H. Ted Olson charged this week at a meet­ ing of a Riviera homeowners group.

He began by assuring every­ one there that he was running strictly as an independent and in no way was aligning him­ self with any individual or spe­ cial interest groups.

"Torrance ha* many good of­ ficials and many good oppor­ tunities to be a better place in which to live and work. It does not deserve more black marks against its reputation from council hopefuls trying to win a few votes by making louder, more lurid charges than the next one." Olson said.

He added that every home owner, every businessman, and industrialist in Torrance can give at least a dozen reasons why this is an outstanding community. It is wrong to mock their pride and enthus­ iasm for Torrance's future by making unfounded attacks on the city

"The District Attorney's and the Attorney General's find­ ings hurt the city, to be sure. Remedial action has been taken. The air is clearing. Now, let's get on with building better city for ourselves and our children." he said.

OLSON. WHO IS the activi ties chairman for the South Bay District, Boy Scouts of America, and special gifts chairman for the YMCA build ing drive in Torrancc, cited from first-hand experience number of the community's needs for its youthful citizens.

He suggested to the audi­ ence that the time has come for Torrance citizens to begin thinking in selfish terms Such as how the line can be held or pushed back on their tax rate; how their tax dollars can be better spent for their needs such as parks, recrea tion and beautification.

"Our city has all of the rigtv building blocks. A wonderfu climate, a broad job-producing Industrial base, scenic sites and a prime location in the metropolitan area

ditional supporting voices and ,-otes they need on the City ouncil, there is every reason

o believe that our community an measure up to the most nthusiastic hopes, plans and

dreams of its proud and spirit- d citizens." Olson said.

He added that his candidacy or tho City Council is based

on his experience and its value n helping to build a better

Torrance . . . rather than a search for dirty linen in muni­ cipal closets.

He pointed to his record as a member of the City Planning Commission as evidence of his ability to act in the best in­ terests of Torrance residents Olson added that his experi­ ence as personnel administra­ tor for a major local industry and, earlier, as Assistant to the Dean of Men for an Ohio Uni­ versity, have given him the background and willingness to listen patiently to every side of every question . every member of

OI.SON PROMISED his lis­ teners a strong voice on the council. "My college training was in business administration, psychology, and management. Stated in simple terms, these six years of college taught me how to tell the difference be­ tween good and bad manage­ ment, between a good and a bad deal. Mixing this with a number of years of practical experience leads to develop­ ment of common sense and understanding, both of which are needed greatly now by this community which has been fig­ uratively on trial in the pub­ lic's mind."

Olson listed his other com­ munity activities: these includ­ ing membership in the Tor­ rance Elks; co-chairman of the Contact Club of the Torrance Chamber of Commerce; first vice president of the Torrance
