Anaheim Gazette ESTABLISHED 1870 ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY Henry Kuchel, Editor and Proprietor SUBSCRIPTION PER YEAR ... $1.50 SIX MONTHS ... $1.00 THREE MONTHS ... $ .50 Entred at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter OFFICIAL CITY PAPER The Volunteers of America are conducting a campaign to raise $25,000 in Orange county for extension and relief work. This is an organization similar to the Salvation Army, and is worthy of all the support that can be given them. Every dollar contributed to the Volunteers is used for the purpose for which it was given. Gen. Ballington Booth and Maud Booth are at the head of it. VOTE STRAIGHT TICKET In an organization, the membership of which runs far into the hundreds of thousands. It is inevitable that differences become heated in times of special stress. The Republican party in California has emerged from such a period. The majority of the party, both through electors and properly delegated representatives, however, has spoken, and the important thing now is to forget the unwise and unkind things that have been spoken and to turn eyes forward to the work in hand, that of electing the entire Republican ticket at the general election in November. The fact should not be forgotten that the Republican party is and has been the forward looking party in California. The Republican party has state have been eliminated as contenders for the big plum and that the battle has simmered down to Fullerton and Monterey. According to Drake, Cline has indicated a strong preference for the Fullerton site, and it is believed that if that city can provide the 100-acre tract the university will be located there. The director said that Cline had given assurance that the acreage could be obtained and that purchase of the site could be very largely financed by Fullerton, if those having selection of the location in charge decide in favor of that city. While no definite price has been placed by the Bastanchury ranch owners on the 100-acre tract desired, it is generally believed that its purchase would involve approximately $300,000. It is said that the building corporation is in position to contribute something toward the purchase of a site. THEATRE GOERS PLEASED BY OPENING OF GRAND First Performance to Be Given By New Managers Saturday Night The United theatre, formerly known as the Grand, will be known under new management, and will open its doors to the Anaheim public on the evening of Saturday, October 7. The policy of the theatre will be the presentation of the highest class of photoplays, enhanced by musical accompaniment and novelties at popular prices. The first week's photoplay program will include such big productions as My Wild Irish Rose," a Vitagroph special which has as yet, not had its first run in Los Angeles; Larry Semen in "Golf," which comes direct from its run the preceding week at Grauman's million dollar theatre in Los Angeles; Jimmie Aubrey in "The Chicken Parade," the first big two committee central co-ed by W.

The fact should not be forgotten that the Republican party is and has been the forward looking party in California. The Republican party has been the organization that has written upon the statute books of California legislation that has made this state conform more nearly than any other state of the union, to the great ideal of a government for, of and by the people. The party stands today solemnly pledged to continue along the path of legislative enlightenment along which it has so steadfastly trod for the past twelve years. The nominee of the party for governor, Friend W. Richardson, stands unequivocally on a platform promising a maximum of economy in the administration of the affairs of the state. He has pledged himself to retrenchment without repairment of governmental efficiency. No person in the United States has been a more pronounced figure in the battle for Americanism than has the candidate of the Republican party of the United States senate, Hiram W. Johnson. His ability, his courage and his patriotism have made him one of the outstanding figures in America today. He has taken to congress the same zeal for humanitarian legislation that marked his career as governor of California. He has been of invaluable assistance in fostering the material prosperity of California. The record of the party as well as the character of the men nominated should inspire the confidence of voters, and should enlist their active support in the campaign. And after all, it must be remembered that campaigns are won not by central committees or state chairmen, but by electors casting their ballots at the polls. Of course, in an association of persons running into huge numbers, ab solute agreement is impossible, and cannot be expected. Substantial accord is all that can be hoped for. Where such substantial accord exists, electors should rally actively and aggressively to the support of the party during the campaign.

Other big features to follow at early dates include such stupendous productions as George Behan in "The Sign of the Rose," Katie Douglas Wiggins, "Timothy's Guest," "Queen of the Moulin Rouge," Edward Horton in "The Ladder Jinx," Dustin Farnum supported by Joseph Swickard and Wialfred Greenwood in "The Trail of the Acts," etc. Pictures will be given with orchestral accompaniment by the United little symphony orchestra. On the opening program two noteworthy musical soloists will be presented, Harry Hahn, baritone soloist, will be heard in popular and classical songs. Mr. Hahn has a powerful and cultured voice, having sung with some of the biggest bands and orchestras in the United States and Canada. Herbert Riley will be heard as violin cello virtuoso. Mr. Riley was born in Brazil of English-Portuguese parents and was educated in Germany. He happily combines 'German thoroughness with a temperament of the Latin race, which makes his playing at all times intensely interesting. He received his first musical training in Hanover, Germany, under mprofessor Stineman, later pursuing his studies under Professor Heinrich Gruenfeld, of Berlin, and finally working with Anton Hekhing, the great Dutch cellist. The admission prices under the new management will be as follows: Rear seats 35 cents, with 4 cents war tax, making a total of 39 cents. A front section 25 cents with 3 cents with 3 cents war tax, making a total of 28 cents. Children under 12 years of age 12 cents with 3 cents war tax, making a total of 15 cents.

Substantial accord is all that can be hoped for. Where such substantial accord exists, electors should rally actively and aggressively to the support of the party during the campaign. Both commissioned officers and the privates in the service must fight. If this is done the Republican party will continue to be in California the same party of enlightened accomplishment that it has been in the past. FULLERTON MAY GET A BIG UNIVERSITY Christian Scientists Looking for Location for Institution A $5,000,000 university of Church of Christ, Scientist, situated on a 100-acre tract of the Bastanchury ranch at Fullerton is a dream which may come true for members of the Fullerton Chamber of Commerce and other boosters there. L. P. Drake, a member of the board of directors of the Fullerton Chamber of Commerce, stated that this organization has under consideration plans designed to further the establishment of the university in the northern Orange county city. L. T. Cline, said to be representing a building corporation of the church, has been in Fullerton twice recently conferring with persons with regard to obtaining a site for the university which the church proposes to locate in California. It is said that various cities in the ANAHEIM GAZETTE COMMITTEES NAMED Committees of the Republican county central committee have been named by W. F. Mentor, chairman of the organization.

Charles Newman, Los Angeles, spiritualist and medium, who was arrested in that city in connection with serious charges which are expected to reveal gigantic blackmail plots, was in trouble in Santa Ana in June, 1921, was revealed by the records of Justice J. B. Cox. Cohen was arrested in a Santa Ana hotel in company with a woman, with whom he was charged with conducting himself improperly. Charges against him were dropped at the preliminary examination before Justice J. B. Cox a month later, when the evidence was considered insufficient to hold him to the superior court. During the time of his trouble here, Cohen was at liberty on $500 bail furnished by himself. His wife swore to the complaint against him at that time and went with Under Sheriff E. French and Deputy Herman J. Zahel when they arrested the man who The Volunteers of Your Conscience The need of just such an organization as the VOLUNTEERS AND MRS. BALLINGTON BOOTH is particularly apparent the subsequent suffering among the poor. Although a certain times whether business flourishes or not. The VOLUNTEERS OF AMERICA are constantly on the task of caring for the poor and unfortunate. No one will support. You surely will be interested in the following because it is the story of a struggling, self-sacrificing, warm-hearted, non-sectarian, humble charity organization that gives all it gets hold of to the poor and needy. That organization is the Volunteers of America, devoted to the cause of reclaiming to society and to respectability those broken reeds of humanity, who, because of long continued adversity and misfortune, are all but "down and out."

HARDING I cannot imagine any American, of whatever group, party, denomination or racial derivation, who would not gladly give his unqualified commendation to the splendid work of the Volunteers of America. In recent troubling years they have peculiarly endeared themselves to the American people by their usual and eminently practical work. I can wish no more for them than that their success and usefulness of the past may be multiplied in the future. Los Angeles, Calif., February 3, 1921. Colonel William M. Hughes, Los Angeles, California. My Dear Colonel Hughes: I take great pleasure in commending the work being done by the Volunteers of America.

We want to respond to the call of women and children in foreign countries who are starving, but we must not fail to render such assistance as your organization can give to the women and children here at home.
