duce and other commodities in the city, but excludes those who raise their own produce. The latter group must secure a permit from the city clerk. Councilman Harry M. Bowles, chairman of the streets committee, reported the city has 200 feet of guard rail and that he has ordered 10 yards of blacktop paving material to repair streets. Reporting for the committee on lighting, Macdonald said nothing can be done now to secure more street lights as the subject has been deferred until after budget time.

Bowles reported for the beach committee and said the city started work last Friday to keep the beach clean. He also said the state division of beaches and parks has men at work. Herman Kraft, Capitola's life guard, was given authority to purchase a lettered swimming outfit, upon the suggestion of Bowles. This prompted Macdonald to remark: "It's a big order." Councilman Jack C. Rosensteel gave a detailed report on progress being made to put the Capitola sanitation plant in working order.

He had previously estimated that the partial beach quarantine could be lifted by the county health department before May 15. Ken Bartlett, youth recreation director, reported the new recreation field on depot hill has been well patronized by children from all over the city. He reported a small turnout at the Community hall meeting Saturday night which started the youth center, but said he believed attendance will pick up in the hall from now on. Another center meeting will be held at the hall next Saturday night. Youngsters will use the hall each Saturday as a youth center.

Councilmen Macdonald and Joe Tabacchini of the education committee reported on a tour through the Soquel union school. About 300 Capitola children attend the school. The councilmen said more space is needed. They called attention to open house on Thursday in connection with public schools week. Clerk Guy R.

Matters taken up ranged from granting utility franchises to the clerk's vacation. City Clerk Guy R. Bigbee read a letter from the state recreation department stating that Gladys Snyder, area recreation specialist, will come to Capitola Monday, May 16, to consult with city officials. The city had previously asked the state for aid in setting up the recreational program. Bigbee read a letter from the National Audit and System com- pany, the Oakland accounting firm hired by the city, which revealed that the firm will submit a complete financial record of the city to the state comptroller June 30.

Assessed valuation will be $1,002,045. The report is required by law. Dr. R. O.

Ingham, county health officer, asked by letter if Capitola councilmen would make suggestions on a proposed county-wide dog ordinance. Councilman Bradley M. Macdonald said that the county measure would provide for licensing and control of dogs. Each councilman was sent a copy for study. Macdonald said action is needed to curb dogs in Capitola now, but advocated waiting for action on a county-wide measure by the supervisors.

Vaccination and care will be included in the county plan, according to the councilman. Councilman Macdonald, reporting for the finance committee, said the city collected S6794 during February, March and April, adding, since incorporation the city has been able to "hang on to" 55 per cent of the money. The clerk also read a letter from the Pacific Fire Rating Bureau of San Francisco. This fire underwriters board made a survey before Capitola was incorporated. Soon another one will be made, with the possibility fire insurance rates will be lowered due to city ordinances.

No date was set for the new survey. Councilman Macdonald read ordinances granting franchises for gas and electricity to Coast Counties Gas and Electric company. These franchises call for payment to the city of up to two per cent of the receipts. No mention was made of the amount the city will receive under the franchises and there was no mention of what rate reductions there are. Rate reduction of utilities was a pre-incorporation promise.

Following the session Macdonald said the city expects to get revenue figures shortly, probably before the franchises become effective in 30 days. The utility ordinances were passed. The council also passed, after a final reading, an ordinance prohibiting "loud and unusual" night noises and one prohibiting Park place parking. Police Chief R. B.

Mondelle Sr. was authorized to mark curbing. Parking on Park to police and fire departments. The "council also passed, after a second reading, a measure regulating plumbing and drainage. Ordinance 30, making changes in the business license ordinance, was place has been judged a hazard passed to a second reading.

The changes call for payment of a fee of $15 per truck delivering pro- Supervisors Approve Plan For Therapist Provisions to allow room and board at the County hspital for an occupational therapist, over a temporary period of time, while she works with patients at the instuti-tion, were approved by the supervisors. The supervisors had held some discussion of the matter before the meeting, but had not decided upon definite action when the subject was explained to them more fully by Mrs. B. B. Wilder, executive secretary of the Santa Cruz TB association.

She told the board that the opportunity to obtain the services of Miss Jane Bartz of Redwood City, a qualified occupational therapist, on a half-day basis, had been made possible by the financial backing of the Santa Cruz city school department. As a part of the department's school adult education program, Mrs. Wilder said that the specialist could be obtained, providing the county would furnish room and board over a trial period of from 30 to 60 days. Living on the hospital grounds, Mrs. Wilder said that Miss Bartz would be able to give a half of each day during the week to the TB and other hospital patients, who would be benefited by the instruction.

"It will only cost the county her room and board," she said, "as the city schools will pay her salary and the materials used in the occupational work are being supplied from elsewhere." Mrs. Wilder said that the rehabilitation services of the state would not give financial aid to county patients until there is certification of at least a 60 per cent cure in the case of the individuals concerned. As a result, such persons, who could be benefited by occupational therapy, are now being supported by welfare department funds, she pointed out. If the program, instituted on a trial basis, proves successful, provisions will probably be made to keep it as a permanent feature, it was understood. At present, Miss Bartz has other committments which make it necessary for her to remain in Redwood City part time.

If the program is retained here she will move to Santa Cruz, where she will find quarters, other than on the hospital grounds, Mrs. Wilder pointed out. The supervisors approved the plan and allowed the temporary room and board arrangement for not more than 60 days.
