County Youth Qualifies As 'Fireplace Engineer9 Norman Pedersen of Pine Knot, a former student of the San Ber-nardino Valley junior college, is earning his way through the University of California by acting as a "fireplace engineer." Pedersen is the first to qualify for such a listing at the university's bureau of occupations, clearing house on the campus for students who can qualify for jobs in almost every field.

At the San Bernardino Valley junior college, he studied the physical aspects of the problems in the physirs department. Pedersen said that "the majority of fireplaces are just 'built' with little Idea by the builder whether they will work properly or not." He has just completed rebuilding the fireplaces in the International house on the campus. ill SERVICE HELD Scores of Jewish residents of San Bernardino and Riverside commu nities gathered last night at Temple Emanu El on street in San Bernardino for the observance of Yom Kippur, when Rabbi Jacob M.

This form of parking will becoma compulsory along all state high ways, including portions within ci ties, under a new state law scheduled for enforcement this winter.

Unanimously deciding in favor of universal parallel parking, the planning board members held that the plan would materially relieve traffic congestion and improve the city's appearance. The planning commissioners also agreed that it would not be sound traffic handling to have both diagonal and parallel parking here, as would be necessary unless the latter plan is made city- wide.
