The planners will receive testimony on plan revisions. On this basis, they will prepare recommendations to thdr respective legislative bodies, the City Council and Board of Supervisors, who also must conduct public hearings. The hearings can be conducted jointly, with each body to take separate action.

The Hanford City Planning Commission and Kings County Planning Commission hold a joint public hearing Thursday night to review proposed amendments to the Hanford Area General Plan. This will mark the first annual review of the plan, provided for in the adopting ordinance. The meeting will be held at 7:30 in the Hanford Justice Court room. According to Hanford Planning Director Vincent Peterson, the main point under consideration wiD be tailoring the plan to accommodate an estimated 13,000 more people for 1980 than originally projected when the plan was adopted. The principal changes recommended will be expansion of the In war they call it "foxhole religion turning to God only In the pinch of desperation.

Its not the healthiest kind of God-seeking; it's like neglecting a friend until you need a loan. Today we have an opportunity to make the acquaintance of God in an era of peace and plenty. This is tar different from the SOS appeal to Ged rescue me!) or the Gimme approach gimme this God, gimme or the Divine Bellhop attitude please do my bidding). Todays opportunity is to establish a long-term friendship, to enrich our lives with a closeness to God and the warmth of constant striving to know His purpose. How well we succeed may be the final determinant of whether there will be foxholes in our future or whether we got out of them alive.

Judge Harold R. Medina, who won world acclaim for his conduct of the trial of 11 U. S. communists in 1949, recently stated, "I have in the past few yeais come to the belief that our destiny as a nation depends upon our spiritual strength rather than upon bombs, production, and material wealth." Cimarron Ranch Appeal Age of In the great age of gadgetry which has adorned our lives with a thousand wondrous aids, comforts and baubles, it was easy to forget just where God fit in. Good living became a matter of pushbuttons, health a matter wonder drugs, happiness a matter of pills.

Religion lingered on for many merely as a sentimental heirloom. It became an antique vase upon the shelves of peoples minds Acquired at some half forgotten time in the past, it was acknowledged to have some indeterminate value, but was best left undisturbed on the shelf and put to no real use. Religion was all right for our parents and grandparents. But for the modern generation? We had science, psychology, and mass production; slide rules and formulae would answer our questions I'll never forget a conversation at the home of one of my friends. He was expounding with gusto on the tremendous recent discoveries in nuclear physics and electronics, when his eight-year-old son piped up; Nowadays we know more than God, dont we Daddy?"

Moffit of Santa Monica, when Moffits high performance jet squadron, VA-164, arrived at the Lemoore Naval Air Station from Jacksonville, yester day. Flying in with Moffits unit was Cmdr. William H. Shawcross, commanding officer of the squadrons carrier air group. A second squadron of 12 "Skyhawk jets, flown by VA-163, came in two hours later.

Two More Attack Squadrons Arrive at Lemoore Navy Base will be carrying out the same training missions as others at Lemoore. The first step after arrival, however, is to learn about the California terrain and weahter as one learns the streets of a new city, he said. He pointed out that thunder, storms will not be found here as at Jacksonville for which we are very grateful. Afternoon flying there can be touchy, he ed under ideal conditions a cloudless sky at the 3,200 foot altitude, according to a VA-164 spokesman. Five hundred miles an hour was the cruising average.

Cockpits were kept at about 65 degrees. Several officers commented on 'the excellent facilities at Lemoore as they got acquainted with their hangar spaces. Lt. Cmdr. R.

Cites Housing Need Dittmar, citing the need for more rental housing, said that if the community doesnt meet the need the Navy will, by constructing more Capehart housing units. In effect, Dittmar said, that will be moving a portion of the Lemoore General Plan out to the air base. Kirkendall, asked whether he would move to abatement proceedings if the feedlots proved to be a nuisance, said absolutely not.

The opposition, with attorney Lawrence Clawson as spokesman, presented these arguments for consideration; The apartments proposed would be downwind to the southeast of the feedlots. The only firm use advanced by Kirk Construction is for the 288 apartments, with the remainder designated as future." Going Concern Cal-King represents a going concern which has an annual expenditure of over $2 million for feeds, 90 per cent of which is bought within a 30-mile radius of the ranch. The feedlot company holds a valid special use permit United Nations (Begins on Page One) to replace the late Dag Hammar-skjold with three deputies, all of whom must concur in any executive or administrative action. The United States immediately turned down the proposal. Speaking in the General Assemblys policy debate today, Lord Home said: We can make no progress whatever towards collective action if nations feel that the executive and administration (of the United Nations) took their orders from national governments.

We must decide now that we mean to have an impartial international civU service. That is really the decisive answer to the troika or any variant of the troika. I agree with the president of the United States that the United Nations must be saved. Whatever its faults and heaven knows it has them it is mankinds best hope for peace. It must be sustained.

"The one thing we can do to sustain it immediately is to insist that there be an executive assisted by an international civil service, none of whom take their orders from any country. That is what the world wants and that is what we have tried to give it. The United States regarded Russia's new proposal as a "fourheaded troika.

Several guests have been invited. Cotton is a critical war Hem. H332iP HLKu tpatf the end of that line. More and more people are looking about them at the world of adult toys we have created and asking, What does it mean? Theyre wondering why none of materialisms pretty packages contain what they really want. And the formula, inner peace plus a sense of direction equals happiness, has somehow eluded all the pill makers.

Weve smashed atoms and atoms now threaten to smash us. Where Science Leads At the Carnegie Institute of Technology, a scientist I talked to, Dr. Dennistoun Ver Planck, remarked, "Science if you pursue it far enough either takes you to a dead end or back to the beginning. Finally you have to fall back on faith. It is a new humility in western man, a commendable modesty, which stirs him to reacquaint with God.

He doesnt consider himself the great know-it-all anymore. In a conversation with Bishop Henry Knox Sherrill, the noted U. S. churchman said to me, People are turning to God because theyve learned something from history. Theyve learned that mankind cannot save himself by himself.

'Until now people felt that man himself could work out everything. Progress was the answer to all his problems. He thought he was going up a moving stairway. AD he had to do was learn more, invent more, progress more and the world would get better and better. Now people can see that something has been left out of the picture.

What has been left out is God. Man Is No Wizard Of a recent Sunday morning the Rev. David H. G. Read said to Chamber Quizzes Officials Gadgetry following the trad blazed by Herman Wouk, author of The Caine Mutiny, to the heart of their religion, the Torah, and the vast commentaries of the Talmud, in hopes of finding a closer association with God.

They are returning to their synagogues seeking not so much the outer trappings as the inner essence of religion. At the Catholic Centre of the University of Ottawa, Canada, a staff member commented, Young people are going into religion in greater depth. In past years, while students were interested, many of them didnt feel religion was imperative. Today they do. They are bringing religion right into their daily lives, no longer feeling that it is just for the holy few.

A friend of mine, a Protestant, recently said of his church in Con necticut, "We used to have a minister who was very modern so he thought. He was aU wrapped up in social issues and politics. He seemed almost afraid to mention the name of Jesus Christ. And attendance at the church was miserable. "Now we have a man whos spiritual and not ashamed of it.

He sets right out to bring Christ to us and us to Christ. His belief is so strong it fills us and refreshes us. You ought to see the church now on Sunday morning. Its packed." Psychiatry Helping Even psychiatry, which many were quick to accuse of being at odds with religion or even godless. is emerging today as a helpmeet of religion in the guest for God.

Hundreds of clergymen have been given basic training in psychiatry so that they may do a better job in religion. One of New Yorks outstanding ministers, the Rev. John Suther- ishioner who had been psychoanalyzed and came to him saying, My Dlness is over. I feel that I understand myself perfectly and I should be able to go ahead now on my own steam. The ed but empty.

As long as the house in tin-tenanted the demon may return, as the Bible puts it, sevenfold. Thus while the science of psychiatry can expel the demon, it is necessary that the faith of religion move into the house lest seven demons move into ts emptiness. Harvards noted professor of philosophy, William Ernest Hocking. put it this way: It is, in the end, a mans religion which must finish what psychoanalysis begins. A writer for the New York Times, Lucy Freeman, underwent psychoanalysis and later made this comment: Analysis gave me what feeling I possess for religion.

I had been too busy fighting inner devils to give much thought to the reality of spirituality. I began to read the Bible. I started to think about why I had ignored religion. Of all the patients he had treated in 30 years, wrote Freuds disciple, Carl Jung, not one has been really healed who did not regain his religious outlook." No wonder many feel today that a return to God is what man needs most. It's good for what ails him.

The threat of residential encroachment caused one national meat packer to hold back participation in the slaughter house. Feedlots are not compatible with housing and are specifically mentioned in the countys zoning ordinance as "heavy industry. Cites Difficulties Lemoores planning consultant Earl Ingrim, has cited difficulties with urban development in areas of high water tables and noted that water stood in trenches at the Cimarron Park subdivision in August.

Cimarron Park, another portion of the original Cimarron ranch, has received approval on 20 acres for housing development. Their special use permit was granted only after an appeal to the Board of Supervisors. Harry Pine, executive vice-president of Cal-King, was asked specifically yesterday why his organization had failed to register a protest at the Cimarron Park appeal hearing. Pine said that Bob Eiel, then, Cal-Kingg manager, had specific instructions to oppose the housing development. "Thats exactly why hes not with us now he went against our orders, said Pine.

He added that Eiels comment for the record that Cal-King did not oppose subdivision development nearby was not the policy of the company We were dumbfound ed by his remark. Supervisor Evon Cody about this time, commented that it appeared the Cimarron Ranch had sold land to both cattle feeding and subdivision, then left it up to the Board of Supervisors to pull the chestnuts out of the fire. Appraises Value Asked by the supervisors how much of an investment Cal-King has at stake, Pine said the present appraised value is $750,000. Cal-King owns 104 acres and leases another 389 acres from Cimarron Cattle Co. Clawson told the board that the "reservoir around which Kirk Construction proposes to build apartments is on part of the leased land and is Cal-Kings water supply for the stock.

The lease, he said, has three years to run. Although the lease contains a clause by which the owner can substitute contiguous land, Clawson said, the water source happens to be in the location sought by Kirk Construction for apartments. In additional testimony regarding the need for housing, it was reported by A1 Plank of the Lemoore City Planning Commission that there are 352 units under construction, completed, or in the works in the Lemoore area. A planning staff study shows 539 units under construction, slated to start within the next few months or with valid approvals in the Hanford area, it was stated.

There are Church, in New LEMOORE NAS Two dozen more "Skyhawk jets appeared from the sky and roared onto a parking apron at the Lemoore Naval Air Station yesterday. This completed a transcontinental flight from Cecil Field in Jacksonville, Fla.

The planes made up Attack Squadrons VA-164 and VA-163. Among their pilots were Cmdr. L. W. Moffit, commanding officer of VA-164; Cmdr.

D. V. MarshaU commanding officer of VA- 163, and Cmdr. William H. Shawcross, commanding officer of Carrier Air Group 16 of which the squadrons are a part.

Nearly half of one of the huge hangars was assigned officers and men of the new squadrons. Ten of the sleek craft of VA- 164, nicknamed "The Ghost Riders, came in as a flight at about 1:30 p.m. They had put down briefly at Dallas, and Yuma, on the 2,200 mile jaunt. After a temporary delay at Cecil Field, the last two jets of the squadron came in at 2:15. The 12 "Skyhawks of VA-163.

"The Flying Saints. made one stop at Clinton Air Force Base in Oklahoma and arrived here at about 3:30 p.m. A number of maintenance personnel who arrived in advanced detachments in the last 10 days were on hand to greet the new squadrons. Also on hand were Mr. and Mrs.

L. J. Moffit, parents of the skipper of VA-164. They drove from Santa Monica to extend a California welcome to their son. They had last seen him a year ago in Maryland.

Moffit was then connected with air intelligence at the Pentagon. Coming with a welcome from Moffett Field was Cmdr. John Ford, commanding officer of VA- 165, the propeller driven squadron in CAG 16. The Skyraiders of VA-165 also recently flew west from Jacksonville. Families of members of the new Lemoore squadrons were reported to be making their way across country in caravans bearing identification flags.

They are expected to complete their arrival by the first week in October. The big jet flight was complet Cancer Society Hears Williams Can Viruses Be a Cause of Human Cancer was the subject with which Dr. Robley C. Williams, professor of virology and associate director of the virus laboratory at the University of California, addressed the Kern County branch of the American Cancer Society Monday night. Williams, the son of Dr.

W. C. Williams of Hanford, is noted for his work with viruses, particularly as seen in the electron microscope. Williams this summer made a trip to Stockholm as one of the organizers of the Prst International Biophysics Congress. He was an official U.

Requirements include graduation from an accredited college or university with major in fields appropriate to city management and a minimum of three years administrative experience in municipal government. How is the parking district coming along? Hornsby The initial work has been done, including outlining the boundaries of a proposed district and compiling valuations. The delays now are due to technicalities in formation of a district and the matter is back in the hands of the committee to determine the course of action.

What is the status of the proposed mall? Parking Peterson The first problem to be solved is parking. Until that is taken care of, it is felt that a mall or any other special programs are not needed. Street lighting is another important feature. The mall, if created, would be financed through a special assessment district, not from general taxes. To the latter question, Chamber President Bob Case added the comment, "In view of interest in other communities in malls, such a plan is not so ridiculous as many thought.

The chamber members also drew discussion on other questions about the effect of a continued annexation moratorium, the effect on city taxpayers if the community becomes ringed with unannexed territory, and other issues.

However, this is a technical question and the Gifted Child Program to Be Discussed Overall plans for a program for the gifted child will be discussed at tonights meeting of the Hanford Elementary Schools board of trustees. Projected plans involving the teaching of foreign languages and the county sponsored study of the mathematics program will also be taken up. Other subjects under discussion will be a Hanford District Science Fair and the proposed Science Institute Day projected for January 16. The meeting will be held at district headquarters, 714 N.

Church membership was a way of getting roots down in a new community, perhaps a social asset, too. But today there is a different kind of outreach. Sophisticated people those who in the past would have called religion old-h3t and typed God as a primitive "father figure are now exploring the frontiers of spirituality.
