His article "The Hair Boys" was about Harvey's Drive-in and the fashions that the hair boys wore. He claimed that Harvey's was one of the great unacknowledged centers of fashion in the world. The essay appears in his 1968 book "The Pump House Gang." His drawing of one of the hair boys appears in his book "In Our Time." </p><p>In 1955, Downey was featured in newspapers worldwide when truck driver George Di Peso lived at 7739 Alderdale Street and had a <a href="/wiki/Gopher" title="Gopher">gopher</a> problem. He tried to solve it by putting a hose down a gopher hole and turning on the water to drown it, but could not get the hose out afterwards. He then noticed that the hose was slowly being pulled down the hole. Wire services found out about this, and the mysterious phenomenon was reported in newspapers worldwide. According to a July 3, 1955, front-page article in the <i>Los Angeles Times</i> ("Tokyo Awaits Arrival of Downey Hose"), "A message received from Tokyo at the United Press office here read 'Tell Di Peso in Downey the other end of his hose has not turned up here, but we're all still looking.'" There was a great deal of speculation about the cause of the disappearing hose. Eventually the hose vanished completely. The most likely explanation was that there was an underground river that pulled at the hose. </p><p>In the early 1960s, it was widely reported that the Downey City Library had banned Edgar Rice Burroughs' <i>Tarzan</i> books because Tarzan was not married to Jane when they conceived Boy. Evidence for the rumor's staying power is in articles in the <i>Los Angeles Times</i> that were published in the 1970s (for example, "Downey Sends L.A. Back to the Bush League," Jack Smith, May 8, 1970). The rumor about Tarzan was, however, an exaggeration. According to "Zane Grey Also Safe: Tarzan’s Marital Status No Issue as Downey School Ban Is Denied" (<i>Los Angeles Times</i> December 28, 1961), a rumor spread that one of Downey's elementary schools had removed Edgar Rice Burroughs and Zane Grey books from its library because "1—There was no indication that Tarzan and his mate, Jane, were ever married before they took up housekeeping in the treetops," and "2—Grey was known to put such expletives as 'damn!’ and 'hell' in the mouths of his western cowhands." It turns out that there was no "ban." What happened was that in one elementary school, a parent had put two Zane Grey books "out of site in a desk drawer." No Tarzan books were involved. The Zane Grey books were put back on the shelves. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Education">Education</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Downey,_California&action=edit&section=21" title="Edit section: Education"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Primary_and_secondary_schools">Primary and secondary schools</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Downey,_California&action=edit&section=22" title="Edit section: Primary and secondary schools"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Our_Lady_of_Perpetual_Help_in_Downey.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8b/Our_Lady_of_Perpetual_Help_in_Downey.JPG/170px-Our_Lady_of_Perpetual_Help_in_Downey.JPG" decoding="async" width="170" height="227" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8b/Our_Lady_of_Perpetual_Help_in_Downey.JPG/255px-Our_Lady_of_Perpetual_Help_in_Downey.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8b/Our_Lady_of_Perpetual_Help_in_Downey.JPG/340px-Our_Lady_of_Perpetual_Help_in_Downey.JPG 2x" data-file-width="480" data-file-height="640" /></a><figcaption>Our Lady of Perpetual Help, Catholic parish church in Downey</figcaption></figure> <p>Most of Downey is within the <a href="/wiki/Downey_Unified_School_District" title="Downey Unified School District">Downey Unified School District</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-LACountycensusSDmap2020_39-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-LACountycensusSDmap2020-39"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>39<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Downey's two main public <a href="/wiki/High_school_(North_America)" title="High school (North America)">high schools</a> are named for <a href="/wiki/California_Governor" class="mw-redirect" title="California Governor">Governor</a> <a href="/wiki/John_G._Downey" title="John G.

The first library in Downey was established in 1901 by a women's social club that was founded in 1898. The <a href="/wiki/County_of_Los_Angeles_Public_Library" class="mw-redirect" title="County of Los Angeles Public Library">County of Los Angeles Public Library</a> opened a branch in Downey in September 1915. The county branch moved several times; its final location was in the County Civic Center. In 1958 the Downey City Council voted to establish its own library and withdraw from the county system. The city library services were originally provided out of the back of a bookstore. The city library opened in the former cafeteria of the former Downey Elementary School, then being used as the city hall and police station, on July 1, 1958. A permanent library building was built on December 7, 1959. It had almost 16,000 square feet (1,500 m<sup>2</sup>) and it was built for $186,200, costing $11.97 per square foot. It was dedicated on December 17 and opened on December 18. In February 1984 an addition of almost 12,000 square feet (1,100 m<sup>2</sup>) was completed and dedicated.<sup id="cite_ref-43" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-43"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>43<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In March 2019, the city announced that it would be using Measure S funds to begin remodeling on the city library. The remodeling was initially supposed to last 15 months, but the COVID-19 pandemic caused delays in the project.
