(adv 2 El Dorado Delay Tahoe PLACERVILLE The El Dorado County supervisors have continued for two weeks a request of the California Tahoe Regional Planning Agency for funds until after a meeting to be held Friday with the Placer County supervisors. The Tahoe planning agency had requested that El Dorado County provide its share of the costs of operation of the agency before Jan. 15.

The El Dorado supervisors have put off consideration of the request at least three times Supervisors Funds Bid since the request was received last Dec. 23. The Tahoe agency: told the county that its budget for the current fiscal year is $30,000, half of which is provided by the state. El Dorado County's share is 34 per cent or $10,200 and Placer County's portion is 16 per cent or $4,800. Friday's meeting among the supervisors of the two counties will involve discussions on the Tahoe pinning agency and the proposed routing of California 49 across Auburn Dam.

Page B3 THE SACRAMENTO BEE Tuesday, January 28, 1969 Cross Looks After Flood Victims Who Fled As Sherman Island Went Under RIO VISTA "When your whole world has just gone under with water, you are desperate." Anne Schultz of the Solano Red Cross made this observation as she answered telephones and inquiries in the Red Cross headquarters set up in the Rio Vista Fire House to take care of the families left homeless by the floods on Sherman Island. "This is the real crisis now," added Helen McCormack of Rio Vista, "the crisis of rehabilitation. Governmental agencies are looking after the flood situation, but it is up to us to care for the homeless families." Miss McCormack is a member of a Rio Vista family with large holdings on Sherman Island, and she, along with other landowners, are working to homes. jobs and household equipment for their farm workers. "Everything is needed," said Miss McCormack.

"Housing is the first consideration, and jobs, as well as any kind of household furniture, housewares, clothing, even cast off toys for the children." AAC A SGT. GENE HAYDEN of the Rio Vista Police Department works with Anne Schultz of the Solano Chapter of the American Red Cross and Kathryn Ornduff, an official of the National Red Cross Disaster Service, in the current delta flood emergency. Bee Photo In Nevada City Tree Almost Cuts Home In Half NEVADA CITY Mr. and Mrs. Floyd McClain of Nevada City were left virtually homeless when a huge cedar tree crashed through their roof, but they figure they are lucky to be alive.

McCain, 62, a former mine worker, said he was lying in bed early Sunday morning, "listening to the wind." Then the tree, estimated to be 150 feet tall, crashed down, nearly cutting the house in half. McCain was pinned in his demolished bed, part of which was carried from his upstairs bedroom into the living room below. Mrs. McCain was asleep in a downstairs bedroom. Like Earthquake "It sounded like an earthquake," she declared.

"A big one." Her husband reported he was "knocked half groggy" when a limb struck his head. A hospital examination revealed no serious injury, however. Neighbors, hearing the crash, rushed to McCain's aid. They climbed into a second story window and pulled him out of the wreckage. They found the home's structural members, including four -inch planks, snapped like broken match- sticks.

Other Trees Fell At least half a dozen other tall trees nearby fell during the windstorm, some of them narrowly missing other residences. Utility lines were grounded, and with snow on the ground outside, the McCains were without electricity for about 24 hours. The couple said they live off social security and county welfare funds. They have no insurance on the five-room house they have occupied since June 1962. Z'berg Will Address Democrats In Davis DAVIS Assemblyman Edwin L.

Z'berg, D-Sacramento, will address the Davis Democratic Club Thursday at 8 p.m. in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Frederick G. Peters.

Z'berg, author of the Tahoe regional plan, will speak on the conservation of California's natural resources. Prayer Breakfast NEVADA CITY The third annual mayors' prayer breakfast will be held in the Broiler Restaurant here Thursday. Frank Devaney, a member of the staff of U. S. Dist.

Court Judge Thomas McBride, will speak. The public is invited. LOGGING INCOME ARCATA, Humboldt Co. Arcata community forest logging operations in 1968 brought $107,800 into the city treasury, an annual forestry report said. The situation is so acute that the National Red Cross Disaster Service has assigned Kathryn Ornduff to the area from Portland, Ore.

She will stay in Rio Vista to assist local Red Cross volunteers and the Solano County Chapter in helping families plan for recovery. Numbers Unknown "It is difficult to know just how many families were left homeless by the flood," said Mrs. Ornduff. "We have only been able to help those who have come to us. She asked that she be contacted at the Rio Vista Fire House by others who need help.

There were apprpximately 60 families on the island, including many children. Thanks to prompt action by the Rio Vista Volunteer Fire Department and the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department, all were evacuated without any fatalities. Housing Funds The Red Cross has provided funds for housing these families in motels and hotels in Rio Vista and Isleton, and has taken care of financial needs for clothing and food. The stage of emergency help is now phasing out, and the larger task of rehabilitation has begun, since it will be many months, if ever, before these families can return home. The housing situation is all the more acute since the delta has always been an area where there is a housing shortage.

Generous donations of clothing have already been received. Anyone wishing to provide housing or make any other type of donation is asked to contact Mrs. Ornduff or Mrs. Schultz in Rio Vista at 374-2642 or Miss McCormack at 374-2153.
