final tim 4 UR AGAIN IN WRITERS WIN REDLANDS Redlands University students came very near duplicating last year's clean sweep of top honors in the Forest Lawn writing awards dinner Thursday night in Los Angeles by amassing most points for their alma mater and taking first and third individual honors. Their university again walked away with a full 53,000, based on points, while Miss Dolores de Castro, senior of Lu.sk, took away first prize, 51,000, and Alliance, junior Doris Ruth Holhfeld took third and 5300. She won second and 5300 last year. Third of finalist, George W. Eberl, senior from Oakland, also netted 5100 finalist moneys making the total take for Redlands 56,600 in their eighth year of annual competition with four other southland colleges.

Last year Redlands swept first, second and third places and top points taking, in all, 57,100.

Supporters of a return to the program, and members of the old agency, hold that extremely poor alignment of streets and the un covered Zanja pose a continuing problem, even if the 16 acres doe' develop and substandard homes are cleared. Reactivating the agency was a recent suggestion as a Chamber of Commerce project. Mayor Donald S.
