Newscopy: "IT CAN'T HAPPEN HERE--Miraloma Park housewives rose this morning, glanced out the front door and stood in startled horror. On the hillside where a big sign usually reads 'Miraloma Park' there loomed, instead, in letters five feet high 'LOS ANGELES CITY LIMITS.' What to do? How to cover this shame? While the housewives burned, kindly old Mother Nature, notoriously infatuated with San Francisco, pulled a blanket of fog over the hill and blotted out the awful sight. For verification, see picture at right."
