30 Years' Service as Exchange Manager E. G. Dezell Honored by Board of Directors at Annual Meet Earl G. Dezell, general manager of the California Fruit Growers' Exchange, was honored at the first 1928 meeting of that organization when the board of directors passed a resolution expressing their sincere appreciation of his loyal and capable services to the Exchange and to the co-operative marketing movement during 30 years of service to the citrus industry. In the 30 years during which Mr. Dezell has risen from messenger boy to general manager, he has seen the internationally known marketing organization of more than 11,000 California citrus growers build from humble beginnings to its present position of leadership, where it represents practically three-fourths of the great California industry and is the world-wide example of a successful co-operative marketing enterprise. The resolution, which was presented by C. C. Teague, president of the Sunkist organization, follows: This year just closed marks the completion of 30 years of continuous service to this Exchange of our General Manager, Earl G. Dezell, and finds him in the full vigor and strength of active accomplishment. No one in this industry can point to a service record of such variety and completeness, he having filled since his first job as messenger on February 18, 1897, practically every type of position in this organization, culminating in his appointment as General Manager on March 1, 1922. Combining with this wealth of practical experience a remarkable analytical ability as a basis of sound judgment, a wise delegation of responsibility to his associates and unswerving devotion to the ideals of the Exchange and the co-operative movement, he is rendering an outstanding service. This Board of Directors, by this resolution entered upon the minutes, wish to express their appreciation to Earl G. Dezell of his loyal and capable sense of fitting melodies that are offered throughout the three acts, outstanding among them being "The Language of Love," "I'd Be a Star," "Love Is a Tender Flower," "Hear the Bells," and "Wake From Thy Dreaming." Much of the action in the operetta takes place in Florence, Italy, and the settings are marked by the exquisite scenic effects that made "The Merry Widow" and "Katinka" outstanding triumphs of the past two weeks. Frank M. Rainger, formerly director general of the St. Louis municipal opera, has conducted rehearsals for "Boccaccia," and Frank Darling is directing the musical score. One hundred twenty-five people appear in "Boccaccio" and in all of the Al Malalikah temple light opera productions which will continue for a period of ten weeks. The operas are presented nightly, including Sunday, with Wednesday and Saturday matinees. Strategic Center of Old Indian Country Gallup, N. M., located on the National Old Trails route, may be said to be the strategic center of the Indian country of the Southwest, and motorists over this highway could spend several days sightseeing in this district. Eighty-five miles northwest of Gallup, near Chin Lee, Arizona, is Canyon de Cheelly, with its two tributary canyons, Del Muero and Monument. It is about 40 miles long and is the true home of the prehistoric cliff dwellers in all their colorful glory. Among the cliff ruins most widely known are the White House, Antelope Ruins and Mummy Cave. Canyon de Cheelly possesses additional interest inasmuch as in the valleys are thousands of peach trees, dating from early Spanish times and which belong to the Navajos, who may be seen living in these canyons in the same primitive fashion that they lived centuries, when the Spaniards first came. About 65 miles south of Gallup is the Perpetual Ice Cave, and this natural wonder is a cave in an old lava flow in which is an immense body of ice. The face of the ice is from 12 to 15 feet thick and extends back into the cave for several hundred feet. Scientists are at a loss to account for the presence of this body of ice, as the Most Tuneful and Picturesque Opera At Shrine Temple "Boccaccio," one of the most tuneful and picturesque of all the olden day light opera favorites, will open at the Shrine civic auditorium Monday night, January 15, as the fourth attraction of Al Malalkah temple's 10 weeks' season. "Boccaccio" is by Franz von Suppe, and the lyrics were translated by Maurice Hagenan. Fritzi Scheff played the leading role in the original staging of the production, which was held at the New Amsterdam theater, New York, in 1911. The presentation at Shrine auditorium marks the first production of the vehicle in California since the days of the old Tivoli opera house in San Francisco. Charles B. Dillingham sponsored the production at that time, but failed to stage "Boccaccio" in Los Angeles and other California cities. The cast for the local production will be headed by Charlot Woodruff in the title role, and Richard Powell, Ralph Errolle, Louis Templeman, Alexander Gill, Cora Bird, Roland Woodruff, John Cherry, Pauline French in the supporting cast. "Boccaccia" is noted for the abund- Interest inasmuch as in the valleys are thousands of peach trees, dating from early Spanish times and which belong to the Navajos, who may be seen living in these canyons in the same primitive fashion that they lived centuries, when the Spaniards first came. About 65 miles south of Gallup is the Perpetual Ice Cave, and this natural wonder is a cave in an old lava flow in which is an immense body of ice. The face of the ice is from 12 to 15 feet thick and extends back into the cave for several hundred feet. Scientists are at a loss to account for the presence of this body of ice, as the mouth of the cave is practically the same width as the cave. In the same vicinity is the cave known as the "Breath of the Devil," the opening to which is small and into which the air is sucked by some unknown force and then violently expelled. Forty-nine miles southeast of Gallup lies Pueblo Bonito, one of the largest and most impressive of all the major prehistoric villages in the United States. The 400 ground-floor rooms of this remarkable ruin covers a D-shaped area of over three acres, and fourth story walls are still standing. In its heyday this ruin sheltered 1200 individuals—peaceful farmers who labored unstintingly in the interests of their primitive home. Game Commission Aids Peace Officers The spirit of co-operation between the forces of the division of fish and game of the Department of Natural Resources and other law enforcement bodies was well demonstrated a few days ago, when Fish and Game Commissioner George B. Clarkson issued an order to all field mats to put forth every police and sheriff's angels in the apprehended wanted at that time and helenous crime. Upon reports that had taken to the rank of Southern Californian Clarkson after a Charles B. Bauder patrol in charge of trict, placed at the authorities a well trained man, many of trackers. Deputies of the game know mountain hiding places and were in a fine criminal, had his wooded, isolated California to escape. The fact that they tared in another anything away from co-operation with Commissioner assured by the Loss that his timely off-prepared. "Law enforcement out the state should that laws are observed and that violators are the division of fish ready to aid in suicides." was the o Eugene D. Bennett, the division.

Los Angeles St. at Chestnut Anaheim, Ca 50,000,000 People Predicted for State New President of Realty Board Has Visions of the Future The state of California has room for 50,000,000 people within its boundaries. Hal G. Hotchkiss, president of the California Real Estate Association, declared in his inaugural address made in San Diego shortly following his entrance into the office. "There are at the present time only about 2,000,000 people on the Pacific coast," he declared. "California has but to get the knowledge of what it is and what it has back of it to bring the added population to this state." "It will then be our duty as realtors to locate them, build for them and make them welcome, and above all, to see that they are fairly dealt with." The new president pointed out that the California Real Estate Association 16 years ago was not large in numbers or strength, but had prospered under the leadership of men of vision and is now one of the greatest trade organizations in California. He declared that the aim is to increase that strength until every honorable broker in California is enrolled as a member. "Our California Real Estate Association," he declared, "deals with the most fundamental economies of business, the business of real estate, which represents 65 per cent of all the wealth of our nation. To the realtor goes the responsibility of locking after the property interests of California. We are an organization of service, both to the public and ourselves. The realtor is studying the tax problem, has helped create a state real estate department and created 'with the University of Southern California, an educational and appraisal course.'" Hotchkiss declared city planning is vital, as the state is now paying millions to correct mistakes of the past. He also stated another service of the association is its standard forms, which eliminate many arguments and misunderstandings. Valuable Legacy Left by Burbank Had Created Thousands of New Plants Still Unheralded That the late Luther Burbank had created thousands of new plants which he had not given to the world at the time of his death has been discovered by research workers of the Stark Pomological laboratories, which took over the plant wizard's famous experiment station. Hundreds of his experiments had not been completed at the time of his death, but the experimental plants and the data he wrote about the experiments will enable the pomologists to go ahead and perfect the varieties. It has been estimated that the horticultural resources of the world may be enriched by $100,000,000 through the legacy of new plant varieties left by Burbank. The plant treasures already investigated by the experimenters includes 500 new hybrid roses, 34 new varieties of pears, five new grapes, 120 new plums, 18 new peaches, 28 new apples, 10 new plumbers, 30 new cherries, four new nectarines, 10 new berries and 27 new prunes. In the flower group the research workers have identified 52 new gladioli, 29 new ornamental shrubs and new varieties of tritomas, Shasta daisies, petunias, a "sunproof" Amaranthus combustion, new giant zinnias, new varieties of Burbank's ornamental rainbow corn. Only since the Stark workers have taken over the grounds at Burbank's old station at Goldridge, has the public ever been allowed within its fenced borders. Hotchkiss declared city planning is vital, as the state is now paying millions to correct mistakes of the past. He also stated another service of the association is its standard forms, which eliminate many arguments and misunderstandings. Order to all field men of the division to put forth every effort to assist the police and sheriff's office of Los Angeles in the apprehending of a criminal wanted at that time for a revolting and heinous crime. Upon reports that the man sought had taken to the mountain fastnesses of Southern California, Commissioner Clarkson, after a conference with Charles S. Bauder, assistant chief of patrol in charge of the southern district, placed at the disposal of the authorities a well trained force of mountain men, many of whom are expert trackers. Deputies of the division of fish and game know mountain trails; they know the hiding places and camping spots, and were in a fine position to run down the criminal, had he taken to the heavy wooded, isolated sections of Southern California to escape capture. The fact that the criminal was captured in another state does not take anything away from the splendid spirit of co-operation which was manifested, and Commissioner Clarkson has been assured by the Los Angeles authorities that his timely offer was heartily appreciated. "Law enforcement agencies throughout the state should co-operate in seeing that laws are observed and respected and that violators are apprehended, and the division of fish and game stands ready to aid in such serious emergencies," was the comment made by Eugene D. Bennett, executive officer of the division. Fit is one of the things we’re expert in. And guarantee that you’ll be satisfied. That’s what we’re doing here.
