Census shifts seats as 1970 census realigns California
An Assembly committee report says Southern California gains in representation while Northern California loses. Orange County could grow from three and a half to nearly six Assembly districts, Los Angeles loses seats to southern counties, San Francisco drops one district, and Santa Clara may gain almost a full congressional district. Scattered statewide gains account for a fifth seat. In Contra Costa County a $4 million suit alleges a stables negligence caused the racehorse Fabulous Fable to die from chronic laminitis after training between 1968 and 1969.
