      RITES PLANNED FOR PIONEER ORCHARDIST

      Last rites will be performed tomorrow for Calvin Milton Slawson 314 Perry Street, retired orange grower, who died Tuesday night at the age of 82 after a prolonged illness. Before coming to Oakland in 1920, he and his family resided in Southern California where Slawson owned one of the most extensive groves in that region.
      Failing health necessitated his retirement several years ago and later a fall down a steep declivity on a mountain side at Sonora complicated his ailment. He had been in a hospital for the past four years.
      Funeral services will be held at 1:30 p.m. from the California Crematory, 4493 Piedmont Avenue, in the Middle Chapel with the Albert M. Brown Company in charge. Robert Elder will conduct a Christian Science service. Cremation will follow.
      Slawson is surved by his widow, Mrs. Mary Etta Slawson, and their daughter, Mrs. Blair Logue, of Oakland, and a sister, Mrs. L.R. Lenfest of San Jose.
