Those serving display signs in plain sight in front of their houses indicating a "block mother" lives there.

The program will be ready for operation in September when school opens, and at that time, the Thompson PTA will accept applications for more mothers who are concerned for the safety of the children and wish to volunteer. The goal is to have at least two block mothers per block in the Thompson School area.

at the Bank of California. Election returns and a membership drive are on the agenda. TnnrMnt off the questions in north- east Banning is the black community's Citizens eroup. directed by Mrs Rachel Stamps. She formed the organization as a method of getting the youths "off the streets and into something constructive." Backing the Junior Citizens is the First Missionary Baptist Church, pastored by the Rev.

John Prior. The Junior Citizens decided they "wanted to do something for the community by upgrading our own area." City Hall officials aided Mrs. Stamps and the youth group in getting petitions drawn up seeking curbs and gutters, paved streets and sewers. It was explained that the city couldn't build these things for its citizens, but that if 60 per cent of the property owners in any given block agreed to share the cost, their signatures on a petition would lead to a public hearing before the City Council. If an improvement district could then be formed, this would enable the property owners to pay for such improvements over a ten-year period.

Steward reported that the Junior Citizens had presented a petition to him. He blamed many of the circumstances facing black community property owners on subdividers of the past, before the city had subdivision laws to control them. Lots were left without streets. He questioned a statement by a councilman that the city couldn't psve streets. Councilman Phil Lamm explained that the city could pave what are called major or connector streets with state gasoline tax monies.

Residential streets, such as in northeast Banning, Lamm said, had to be improved by the property owners themselves. Steward said he wanted to protect his home in northeast Banning, but he said "mistakes made by the city in the past" and the financial demands of maintaining a home had gotten to be too much for many of his neighbors. "They just quit," Steward reported. "They don't care. Then they get mad and wreck their houses and leave.

I don't want to be surrounded by bombed out homes." This anger at their inability to cope with economics and take pride in their iRit.i v-n iM vf WFwf-iV' Season Under Way at Disneyland the Anaheim amusement park. A parade of 200 entertainers followed by a fireworks display 1.
