"I put the car in the wrong gear and it (the car) just stood there, and I just couldn't figure out what was wrong." Anthony Cardoza is now in the midst of editing a television special titled Car Racing With Joy," scheduled to air within the next month or two.

It is a documentary "a la George Plimpton" which began with a few roles of movie film shot just for the Cardoza family posterity. The film is what could be called a family project, as Mrs. Cardoza is the star and Cardoza served as cameraman, producer, editor and narrator. In addition, he wrote two songs for the shoxv, which will be performed by country singing star Johnny Bond, mahan dec 11 4 of 4 she List Films By profession, Cardoza is an independent, movie producer. His films include "They Only Kill Their Masters," "Run, Angel, Run" -and ''Revenge of the Dead." Most of his films are what he terms horror-comedies, and all it might be added, were financial successes.

"Big 1 a 1970 production, has some special significance for the Cardoza's. As in all of his movies, Cardoza played a small part, but his wife and their' 13-year-old daughter Kim also had parts. Makes Family Fare I a ddition, Cardoza recorded the sound effects, including the male, female and baby creatures, in the bedroom of his home. He wants to continue in the business, but he emphatically states that he will not make any movie that is not a or a PG rating. "Lots of action and good acting, that's what I like," he says.

"I refuse to make a movie" that can't be seen and enjoyed by the whole family." The Cardoza's encourage each other in their respective fields, and one upcoming event is seen by both as most important. Mrs. Cardoza is trying to become the first woman driver to race at the Ontario International Speedway. "Ontario is where I want to go, and I will go because I want to bad enough," she said. Runs Family Known by KNBC news as the "racy lady," she dislikes publicity in most cases, but she said she is willing to do almost anything if it helps her race at Ontario.

She has qualified, but she needs a sponsor and a car for her hopes to materialize. With the exception of Mrs. Cardoza's racing interest, the family's home life is not unusual. Gigi, the family poodle, controls their lives just like most family pets run their masters.

Under the 10-point program, capital fund expenditures will be limited to improvement of airport access and internal vehicular traffic circulation.

Economic Bole With halt to expansion that the program proposed, he said, devel- ent at Van Nuys would be limited to the "status quo." The present arrangement under which the department rents the Agua Dulce airport Saugus area would continue under the program. Economic impact studies by Waldo and Edwards released to the public in spring of 1972, showed graphically the important role that LAX, Ontario and Van Nuys Ai- ports play in the economic life of their communities. The studies showed that LAX industry was the second largest employer in Los Angeles County in 1970, and the largest at a single plant location. At the same time they revealed that the combined industries at the three airports pump a total of 600,000,000 annually or al- m.o $10,000,000 daily, into the Southland's economy.

Spend 81,397,032 At Van Nuys Airport, total revenues of $1.209,957 were reported during 1971-72. of which $1.181,303, or 97.63%, came from a iation-related sources.

A hopeful sign from the environmental standpoint was that LAX passenger volume for 1971-72 hit an all-time high of 21,157,275, which was above the previous fiscal year, while a i a ovements (takeoffs and landings) declined to 481,359, down 6.7% from' 1970-71 and the lowest number since 1966-'67. This reduction in aircraft movements is due to increased use of wide-bodied jets which result in less flights carrying more people. These new planes also have achieved a noticeable reduction in noise and exhaust emission.

At Palmdale, the depart- ment's primary concern was the hope that Palm- dale Intercontinental Airport may continue to developed as expeditiously as possible. To that end, it was decided that the land acquisition program be tinued concurrently with the environmental impact study now under way at Palmdale.
