Ebell To Hear About Writing At the meeting of the Ebell Club next Monday evening, November 4th at the Elks Club house, Clark Sellers, handwriting expert of Los Angeles will explain the details of his work and give accounts of some of the more interesting experience in connection with his work. Mr. Sellers was one of the experts selected by Attorney General Wilentz of New Jersey to examine the ransom letters in the Lindbergh kidnapping case to determine who wrote them. He has also been called into many other noted cases to examine documents where it was necessary to use microscopes, ultra-violet rays, cameras and other special instruments. Some of the more noted cases in which Mr. Seller's council was sought was the Hickman kidnapping of Marion Parker; the identification of Winnie Ruth Judd as the writer of the letter of confession in the Arizona murder case; the Rudolph Valentino estate; the Mae West jewel robbery. In an election contact he proved that certain ballots had been tampered with. In his talk Monday evening Mr. Sellers will show how identification has become one of the most exact sciences.

One of his compositions, "Left" which was recently sung by Lawrence Tibbets over the national broadcast, will be an added feature on Mr. Brown's program. And they took us for a ride last Friday night. By they, I mean the officers of Anaheim Post of the American Legion. We (about 40 of us) pilgrimated out of the soil "conversation" (that last word don't look right but guess maybe it is . . . that's all I heard the Legion men doing last Friday night) camp that's the other side of El Toro and that's no bull. The Smiths went out early to make way for the rest of the crowd . . . you know kinda make an appearance for the drum corps and what members of the post that could rassle some gasoline and maybe hitch-hike a ways. After we got there we met . . . leave it to us . . . the mess sergeant. Wolf is the name . . . you know the boys out there saw the wolf come to the door and they invited him in and believe it or not (Excuse, Mr. Ripley) they turned the dining room over to him . . . well anyway we found The Wolf at the door on the reception committee when we went out. The Smiths looked so gaunt, however, the rest of the gang had no worries about the wolf at the door and we went the rounds. The Top Kick . . . (to the uninitiated . . first sergeant.) Ebells Boy Hawaiian Isles members of the high school Club at their meeting Monening at the home of Miss Riley, enjoyed the interportrayals and accounts of Hawaiian Islands as told byora Gene Golder and Miss V.

To Present Series of Reviews At the meeting of the Marywood auxiliary announcement was made that Mrs. Daphne Goss Hellerman, teacher of dramatic art, will present another series of play reviews this winter. Mrs. Hellerman's reviews have proven to be very popular and for the coming series she will follow the trend of the productions of Hollywood and Broadway and present her reviews on the classic plays and take up perhaps one or two of the more popular modern releases. For the first of her series, to be given at the Marywood school on November 8, Mrs. Hellerman has chosen "Alice Sit By the Fire" by J. M. Barrie. This play depicting wolf come to the door and they invited him in and believe it or not (Excuse, Mr. Ripley) they turned the dining room over to him . . . well anyway we found The Wolf at the door on the reception committee when we went out. The Smiths looked so gaunt, however, the rest of the gang had no worries about the wolf at the door and we went the rounds. The Top Kick . . . (to the uninitiated . . . first sergeant) . . . was a Noble Scot (I think) his name? Why Bobby Burns o'course. And does Bobby know his stuff . . . well, he didn't recite any poetry, that is, the kind you gentle readers are used to, but for the benefit of former doughboys who know the kind of poetry a top kick can recite, I'd be willing to bet that Bobby would make his namesake, the renowned poem writer look sick when it comes to army poetry. There were a lot've other good scouts out there too. There was Captain Thomas, for instance . . . well, having graduated from a recruit squad once, I know that he doesn't have that heavy neck and shoulders for nothing, but he's the kinduva guy that'll take a lot before he starts to pass out his thoughts . . . he knows his men and . . . after all that's his job. There are 254 men in the camp and a big percentage of them are members of the American Legion . . . They admitted our drum corps was good . . . but then, they only heard it once. Teed Wilder went out disguised as a Russian immigrant. However he forgot himself once and then everyone knew who he was. He was accompanied by another cop . . . Roger Sherman . . . but they had to behave themselves to a certain degree cause Jim Bouldin was there too. (And you know, Jim is chief . . . if you don't, you oughta see the gold braid on his sleeve.) There were a lot of other Russians (pronounced rushings for the occasion cause they served hot dogs and coe.) The boys in charge of the mess hall announced that Legion men would be allowed to enter first, but that announcement wasn't necessary as time the announcement was made, the boys were already in the mess hall . . . they got there on the last note of chow call. Marian Robertson was the prize for the most costume. The little Miss four years old and was as a tiny witch. The conclusion of the pro-II joined in Halloween and later were served ice and cake. The Halloween revailed throughout the mons and reft slumms. The Hallowen program was the awarding work in a pin for excellent work proven to be very popular and for the coming series she will follow the trend of the productions of Hollywood and Broadway and present her reviews on the classic plays and take up perhaps one or two of the more popular modern releases. For the first of her series, to be given at the Marywood school on November 8, Mrs. Hellerman has chosen "Alice Sit By the Fire" by J. M. Barrie. This play depicting the characteristic Barrie humor, carries one through all the emotions from lightest gaity to deepest despair, and shows a true understanding of human nature. In keeping with the great interest shown in the Shakespearean plays at this season, Mrs. Hellerman plans to read one of his plays during her course of reviews. As another entertainment feature "Cyrabo de Bergerae" by Rostand will be presented in review. "Porby and Bess" by Gershwin, one of the few popular American operas, will probably be another presentation of the series. These programs are open to the public and those desiring to make reservations may call Mrs. Oscar Heying, or the Marywood school. These reviews presented by Mrs. Helleman were so well given and enjoyed by so many last year the Marywood auxiliary is looking forward to another most interesting series this winter. Pythian Sisters Hold Anniversary Fete In observance of the twelfth birthday of the Anaheim Pythian Sisters a chicken dinner was served at the K. P. hall last Monday evening, with more than a hundred guests present. There were a lot of other Russians (pronounced rushings for the occasion cause they served hot dogs and coeec.) The boys in charge of the mess hall announced that Legion men would be allowed to enter first, but that announcement wasn't necessary as, time the announcement was made, the boys were already in the mess hall . . . they got there on the last note of chow call. Ray Smith told the boys all about Armistice day and Fred Smith about Halloween and then Jim Bouldin told them the truth. Earl Fulfer put on a medicine show. And we all explained about raising whiskers, and, did that give them a laugh? . . . That's the first they knew about the decorations we (that is some of us) were wearing on our faces. The first building they showed us on the ground was the bath house and none of us tumbled. But did they all pay attention when the Skipper showed us through the mess hall and kitchen . . . but then that was explained before in this . . . well article. However, we all had a swell time and we're going out again. (with our faces in plain sight next time.) Mrs. Lillian Martens was general chairman. Twelve long tables were set in the dining hall, each one decorated to represent their respective birth month. Joining in the games, which were of the seasonal type, and which were under the leadership of Mrs. Lillian Davis, all present enjoyed an evening of merriment. Prizes for some of the contest games went to Mrs. Mary Bauman, Mrs. Helen Whiteman and John Eden.
