Prof. Prince may have made this same remark a year ago and he may make it again a year hence, but it pleased the audience, it pleased the parents and it pleased the class. In fact, the forty-four young men and young women composing the class deserve to have nice things said about them, as they have made a splendid record during their four years. he filed past to receive his diploma he was given an ovation by the audience. Prof. Prince announced that Henry Mang, a junior college graduate, is also in the navy and could not be present. Following is the program of the exercise: Piano Solo ... Edna Hochuli Invocation ...

Regularly last Thursday night the class of 1918 is a little bit the nicest bunch that ever passed out of the Anaheim Union High School. Prof. Prince may have made this same remark a year ago and he may make it again a year hence, but it pleased the audience, it pleased the parents and it pleased the class. In fact, the forty-four young men and young women composing the class deserve to have nice things said about them, as they have made a splendid record during their four years of high school work, every member deserving honorable mention. The professor laid great stress on the beneficial effects of the military drill. A number of the students, he said, who were inclined to stoop or sag at the shoulders had straightened up marvelously, and now there were no aenemics or weak ones among them. While the boy student drill is compulsory the girl companies had been forced upon the faculty and board by the girls themselves, who insisted upon being organized and drilled. So rapidly had they learned that he believed, taking them as a whole, they were now more proficient than the boys. Prof. Prince announced that next year there would be no junior college as the number of students enrolling for it would not justify its continuance. However a post graduate course will be given in the high school. When the curtain arose showing the class seated on the stage it was a serious and dignified looking line-up that greeted the audience. Instead of the gay and costly attire of former years each student was clothed in the collegiate gown and mortar board. This was an economic and patriotic move as the class long ago unanimously decided that there would be no unnecessary expenditure at this graduation as the government needs the money to help maintain the fifty-seven former high school students now in the service. The class roll was as follows: Allene Anna Adams. Avis Edna Barfoot. George H. Betzsold. Grace Eleanora Bleck. Margaret Cole. Harriette M. Corwin. Henry B. Dalton. Stanley Milton Falkenstein. Fearl A. Filer. Maria E. Fisher. Earle C. Gilbert. Ralph Alvin Gildea. Ralph Herbert Goodale. Helen S. Hedstrom Presentation of Class C. R. Prince, Principal Awarding of Diplomas G. H. Goodale President of Board of Trustees "The Star Spangled Banner" Audience Benediction Rev. Messias It is customary for the graduating class to leave something behind it in the way of a memorial, but Stanley Falkenstein, who had been chosen to make the presentation address, announced that all the money collected for the purpose had been sent to Europe for the relief of suffering children in France and Belgium. It is understood the fund amounted to several hundred dollars. Major J. S. Malcom, in command of the cadets, made a short talk on this branch of the high school training and announced the following officers for next year. Commissions issued by Adjutant General Borree were presented, each officer receiving a hearty cheer as his or her name was announced: Boy's Cadets Cadet Major— Reginald White. Battalion Officers— Gerald E. Shiner, Bat. Adj. Elmer C. Rogers, Bat. Q. M. Officers 74th Co.— Captain—Harry D. Briscoe. 1st Lieut. Alva C. Rogers. 2nd Lieut.-James Whitaker.

RADIO BUZZER APPLICATIONS The radio buzzer course offered by Anaheim Union High school is meant especially for men of draft in the first and second classes. Applicants must pass physical examination if not of first class in draft. Also they must volunteer to take position as government may need them. The international code is taught.

After its presentation Attorney Ames stated that the ordinance had been by Attorney Cailor at afternoon, which precludes document a thorough legality before the solons. However, he said, in giving the document once over, he inclusion that she paper waived or two, or perhaps that she guilt of the person acting in local ordinance be a presumption upon council to stipulate with competent evidence, serious question as to attorney Ames advised.

This should appeal especially to amateur wireless operators who wish to become non-commissioned officers at higher pay than as privates. Sixty letters have been mailed to drafted men of the first and second classes. Only eighteen replies have been received. It should be considered a patriotic duty to answer these as soon as possible, in order that the course may be started at once. The following have registered for the course to date: R. L.

The ordinance had been drawn up by O. T. Callor and handed to Trustee Gibbs just as the meeting convened and under the usual order of business was given first reading by the clerk. The ordinance was referred to City Attorney Ames for examination. The ordinance seeks to forbid the sale of alcoholic liquor in any form within this city. Regularly licensed pharmacist. The transaction has passed out of the hands of the city, it was said. Max Nebelung addressed the board asking for better street lighting on East Sycamore street. The request was granted. G. M. Simpson appeared before the board asking for readjustment of the power rate as now charged for pumping plants. Mr. Simpson has been paying three cents per kilowatt which is excessive. The board is to meet in special session and rearrange the schedule, which they have had in view for some time, but for some reason or other have not done so. Mr. Simpson believes that a two cent rate would be fair. Should he have any rebate coming for the excessive charge the past three years, Mr. Simpson said it would be his wish that the sum be donated to the Red Cross. While on this subject the board will re-consider the rates made for gas connection charges. Thomas Crawford asked for use of the vacant city lot at the power house for purposes of sun drying orange pulp. This is a new scheme, adding another by product. A space large enough for 400 trays is desired and the request was referred to the street superintendent. It is said sufficient space is available there and Mr. Steward was given power to arrange with Mr. Crawford just what is desired.

WOOLWINE DELIVERYS PATRIOTIC AND ELOQUENT ADDRESS The 141st anniversary of the birth of Old Glory was fittingly celebrated by the Anaheim Elks at high school auditorium Friday evening, Thomas Lee Woolwin, district attorney of Los Angeles, and candidate for governor, being the orator. Headed by the band the members of the lodge, the boy scouts, veterans of '61, and representatives of the Knights of Pythias, Knights of Columbus, Masonic and other orders formed a procession at the Masonic temple and marched to the high school where a good sized audience of patriotic people awaited their coming. Beginning business in this city on the toboggan was presented to the board of trustees at their meeting Thursday night. The ordinance had been drawn up by O. T. Callor and handed to Trustee Gibbs just as the meeting convened and under the usual order of business was given first reading by the clerk. The ordinance was referred to City Attorney Ames for examination. The ordinance seeks to forbid the sale of alcoholic liquor in any form within this city. Regularly licensed pharmacists may sell alcohol upon prescriptions issued by physicians, and ordained ministers may procure it for sacramental purposes only. Penalties are provided for any infraction of the proposed law. After its first reading five days must elapse before it can be further considered. Should the ordinance be amended by the city attorney, and presented at the next regular meeting, five days more must then elapse before its acceptance or rejection can be entered upon the minutes. Should it be accepted the document then automatically becomes a law upon the statute books of the city. According to its provision it does not become effective until October 1, 1918. After its presentation to the council Attorney Ames stated that a copy of the ordinance had been handed him by Attorney Callor at about 3:30 that afternoon, which precluded his giving the document a thorough digest as to its legality before the assembling of the solons. However, Attorney Ames said, in giving the document the casual once over, he inclined to the opinion that the paper was faulty in one or two, or perhaps three, instances. The ordinance provides that physicians' prescriptions must be kept on file for public inspection. The validity of this clause, Attorney Ames says, is open to question. The ordinance further stipulates that possession of a federal license to dispense liquor would be prima facie evidence of the guilt of the person accused of violating the local ordinance. This would be a presumption upon the part of the council to stipulate what constitutes competent evidence, and is open to serious question as to its validity, Attorney Ames advised. Attorney Ames averred that in other instances the measure was insure, its verbosity being open to criticism. It has been freely expressed that the instrument in its original form would not stand up under a rapid fire legal battery. Attorney Ames further alleged that a vacant city lot at the power house for purposes of sun drying orange pulp. This is a new scheme, adding another by product. A space large enough for 400 trays is desired and the request was referred to the street superintendent. It is said sufficient space is available there and Mr. Steward was given power to arrange with Mr. Crawford just what is desired. A communication was received from the Elks lodge extending the council invitation to the Flag Day observance on Friday, June 14th. The invitation was accepted and ordered filled. Engineer Steward presented to the council a list of property owners who have not put in sidewalks and curbs, totaling 600 feet. In many cases these lots intervene between places where the sidewalks and curbs have been placed by owners, and the unimproved strips are looked upon with disfavor. The city clerk was instructed to notify all these owners to put in the sidewalk and curbing, if not the city will do so under the Vrooman act, which of course, will add more expense. Better mail delivery would be had were all these lots curbed and sidewalked. Mr. Terry of North Street, asked for city water, but his request was denied. According to the latest edict, all requests for water outside the limits, are to be denied. The board informally discussed providing more water at the plant. Trustee McFadden said the efficiency of the wells now in use can be improved upon by installation of better pumps, and figures will be secured which will be presented at the next meeting. The board is to take time by the forelock and provide the water flow which it is considered in time will be needed. Street Superintendent Steward was empowered to remove all trees in the parkings where it is shown they damage sidewalks. Shade trees are desirable and they are to be encouraged wherever possible. It is hard to get a shade tree that is desirable from all points of view. Some are scale breeders, while others litter up sidewalks, while still others overlap the walks and are objectionable. But all shade trees are beautiful and they will not be removed unless they do actual damage to the cement walks. Doc. Mac Farlane addressed the board in reference to removal of a guy wire near the new Union Oil Co. service station on South Lemon street, which blinders the entrance of ve auditorium Friday evening, Thomas Lee Woolwin, district attorney of Los Angeles, and candidate for governor, being the orator. Headed by the band members of the lodge, the boy scouts, veterans of '61, and representatives of the Knights of Pythias, Knights of Columbus, Masonic and other orders formed a procession at the Masonic temple and marched to the high school where a good sized audience of patriotic people awaited their coming. Beginning with "The Star Spangled Banner," in which the voices of the audience joined the band, the following program was given: "Star Spangled Banner" Band and Audience Introductory and Altar Exercises... Exalted Ruler and Officers Prayer... Chaplain Cadman Vocal Solo: "When the Boys Come Home" Speaks Mrs. Ray Fisher History of Our Flag...Miss E.

Parker, Chaplain W.J.Cadman, Inner Guard, Fred Cline, Organist Herman Stern, Trustees M.W.Martenet, Wm.Schumacher and D.Jessurun. The program committee was exceptionally fortunate in the selection of its musicians, this portion of the program being especially entertaining. Mrs.Fisher, Mr.Askin and the "J.A.F." Trio were all enceded. Miss Evelyn Finney read the history of our national emblem from the time Pilgrim fathers fabricated one from the banners of St.George and St.Andrew, down to the Old Glory of the present day, and Hon.Walter Eden of Santa Ana, delivered the Elk's beautiful and eloquent tribute to the flag. Mr. Woolwine's address was a patriotic one. He said little about the business in this city on the toboggan was presented to the board of trustees at their meeting Thursday night.

Attorney Ames averred that in other instances the measure was insecure, its verbosity being open to criticism. It has been freely expressed that the instrument in its original form would not stand up under a rapid fire legal battery. Attorney Ames further alleged that a saving clause should have been attached to the instrument, wherein it is provided, that should any clause, section or sub-section of the ordinance be declared illegal by any court, that would not affect the legality of the remaining parts of the ordinance. This clause, Mr. Ames said, is recognized by the legal fraternity and is always inserted as a safety first measure. The ordinance upon motion was refered to the city attorney who will delve into its legal verbiage and construction from a jurisprudence viewpoint, and report at the next meeting. There were present Mayor Dwyer, Trustees Stark, Backs, McFadden and Gibbs. A large crowd of interested citizens were also present and the session lasted close up to the midnight hour. The assessment for alley paving on a six foot strip abutting the property of Mrs. Jane Helmsen south of Center street came up for discussion. As far as known the six foot strip is assessed to an unknown owner, and the L.A. Paving Company holds a lien against it for the assessment. The only way to straighten out the tangle, it was advised, would be to have the paving company foreclose on the strip and then Mrs. Helmsen could buy it. Doc. Mac Farlane addressed the board in reference to removal of a guy wire near the new Union Oil Co. service station on South Lemon street, which hinders the entrance of vehicles there. Referred to power house superintendent. Mac Farlane also asked for the installation of an ornamental light cluster pole at the station, but the council passed the buck up to him, but will furnish him the juice. Marshal Wood sent in a request for more pay for the police, asking that the marshal be raised from $100 to $115, and deputies from $85 to $100. As the ink had hardly become dry on the salary ordinance passed at this session, granting the police a raise, as previously reported, the council gave the latest request the stony stare. In reference to band concerts Trustee Gibbs asked for further time to consider the matter, and his request was granted. Building permits were granted to John Ziegler and others to erect a fireproof open structure, classed as a shed, in the rear of the hotel, to be used as an adjunct of the waiting station, and to Dr. Boege to build an addition to his office on South Los Angeles street. Trustee Backs, faithful committee man, reported upon a number of matters possible. Mrs. Fisher, Mr. Askin and the "J.A.F." Trio were all enceded. Miss Evelyn Finney read the history of our national emblem from the time the Pilgrim fathers fabricated one from the banners of St. George and St. Andrew, down to the Old Glory of the present day, and Hon. Walter Eden of Santa Ana, delivered the Elk's beautiful and eloquent tribute to the flag. Mr. Woolwine's address was a patriotic one. He said little about the flag, but talked principally on the evolution of mankind—the decadence of absoluteism and the growth of democracy and equality of man. He took for his subject the foundation stones of the B.P.O.E.-"Charity, Justice, Brotherly Love and Fidelity," declaring that they are the embodiment of the Golden Rule, enunciated in the sermon on the mount. Men, he said, were born equal, and there is very little difference in them as they journey through life. During his career as a prosecutor he had frequently reflected that the prisoner at the bar differed very little in his thoughts, ideas and ideals from the prosecutor. He had very often drifted into crime, because of his environment and lack of opportunity. There would be less crime and sin in the world were it not for the spirit of intolerance, the intolerance of narrow-souled men who believe everybody is bad who does not order his life according to their principles and who see evil in every doctrine which they chance to disbelieve.

MARINES ARE THE LADS WHO'LL GET THE KAISER Cooney Schroff Writes That He Is Camping on Bill's Trail One of the gratifying features of Uncle Sam's service is that every boy, whether he is in the army, the navy, the aviation or the quartermaster's division, appears to think that he is in the favored branch, and pities the poor fish who were so unfortunate as to break into some other arm of the service. Cooney Schroff, who is now in the Marines at the Mare Island navy yard, writes to a friend as follows: "We expect to stay here on nine weeks, but 'where do we go from here,' is a question no man can answer. Say, bo, they sure treat a man nice here and feed him good and plenty. If you hear anybody say the boys are not fed and treated well just call him a (deleted by the censor) for me.

MUST PAY THE PENALTY FOR CIRCULATING GERMAN PROPAGANDA JURY IN JUDGE HOWARD'S COURT REACHES VERDICT AFTER TEN MIUTES DELIBERATION In the minds of the twelve men who sat in judgment at the trial of B. H. Dross in Judge Howard's court Monday, there was not a shadow of doubt that he was knowingly and mischievously promulgating German propaganda which not only reflected on the morale of the United States soldiers but also on the honor of a large portion of the young ladies of Santa Ana. S. M. Davis, attorney for Dross, heroically defended his client, and made a desperate effort to prove that he merely innocently repeated a slanderous story he had heard with no intention of doing injury to the reputation of the troops, but the fact that Dross was born in Germany where his In the Marines at the Mare Island navy yard, writes to a friend as follows: "We expect to stay here on nine weeks, but 'where do we go from here,' is a question no man can answer.

JIMMY HOWARD TRIES TO ENLIST Selected by Recruiting Officer Be- vously promulgating German propaganda which not only reflected on the morale of the United States soldiers but also on the honor of a large portion of the young ladies of Santa Ana. S. M. Davis, attorney for Dross, heroically defended his client, and made a desperate effort to prove that he merely innocently repeated a slanderous story he had heard with no intention of doing injury to the reputation of the troops, but the fact that Dross was born in Germany where his parents now live, that he came to this country only five years ago, and that he is registered as an alien enemy, was prima facie evidence that his profession of innocence was assumed, and that he had a fell purpose in circulating evil reports about the boys in khaki. At least the jurymen so interpreted it, as they retired at 3:30, elected B. T. Beale foreman, took two ballots, and reported to his honor at 3:40 that the accused was guilty as charged. The jury was composed of J. H. Enearl, Robert Inglis, J. R. Walters, Wm. McCann, J. C. Calloway, J. P. McCarter, B. Fisher, J. B. Wilkie, Otto Carter, George Barfoot, J. E. Baker and B. T. Beale. Dross was arrested Wednesday on a complaint sworn to by D. Jessurun, chief of the Orange county division of the American Protective League. He is a resident of Santa Ana, and is employed by the Palmer Motor company of that city. He was engaged in installing a motor at a pumping plant on the Bastanchury ranch. In the presence of E. W. Phillips and Roy Spier, employees at the pumping plant, he made the remark that one hundred girls of Santa Ana had been unduly intimate with a hundred soldiers of the 145th regiment of artillery recently encamped at Santa Ana, on the first day of the regiment's reaching that city. On being asked how he knew this to be a fact he replied that a hundred of the boys had applied to the regimental surgeon the next day for treatment. This statement was reported to Mr. Jessurun, who immediately issued the complaint before Judge Howard, and on the same day Dross was placed under arrest, charged with disturbing the peace, but was released on putting up $250 cash bail, his trial being fixed for Monday. Deputy District Attorney Koepsel acted as prosecutor, and while Davis pulled every wire known to the profession in an endeavor to secure a favorable verdict for his client, Koepsel checkmated him at every turn, and JIMMY HOWARD TRIES TO ENLIST Rejected by Recruiting Officer Because He is Only 16 Years of Age Judge Howard has one boy in the army, his son Horace being in the medical corps at Camp Lewis. The judge has another boy who is as patriotic as his brother, and whose heart seems to be in the right place. Jimmy asked his father the other day to let him take the commutation ticket, saying that he wished to go to Los Angeles. The judge handed his son the ticket and Jimmy set out on an early train for Los Angeles the next morning. He returned in the afternoon, and said with tearful voice: "They wouldn't take me." "Who wouldn't take you," asked the old man. "The recruiting officer. I tried to enlist, but they told me that inasmuch as I am only 16 years of age I am too young for the service." The judge did not know that Jimmy's purpose in going to Los Angeles was to enlist, but Jimmy says he will be shouldering a rifle before he is much older. Jimmy is our neighbor, and we know that he is one of the best boys in town. A recruiting officer will be at the city hall from June 23 to 30, for the purpose of enlisting men in the navy. Jessurun, who immediately issued the complaint before Judge Howard, and on the same day Dross was placed under arrest, charged with disturbing the peace, but was released on putting up $250 cash ball, his trial being fixed for Monday. Deputy District Attorney Koepsel acted as prosecutor, and while Davis pulled every wire known to the profession in an endeavor to secure a favorable verdict for his client, Koepsel checkmated him at every turn, and proved conclusively to the satisfaction of the jury and to all who heard the trial that if Dross was not one of the kaiser's propagandists and agents he was showing mighty poor judgment in circulating stories calculated to undermine the people's confidence in the integrity of our soldiers. The repetition of such a charge would cause the punishment of an American citizen, and could not be tolerated in an alien enemy. Mr. Davis' efforts to quash the charge because Mr. Jessurun, who swore to the complaint, had no personal knowledge of the language used by Dross failed, as it developed that Mr. Jessurun is chief of the Orange county division of the American Protective League, and he was perfectly competent to act on information furnished him by a subordinate member, and furthermore that he was not compelled to give the name of the subordinate. Before Mr. Jessurun was called to the stand two witnesses had already testified to the language he had used, which amply justified the complaint. When placed on the stand Dross frankly admitted that he had made the statement testified to by Phillips and Continued on Page 8
