THE GAZETTE IS EQUIPPED AND MANNED TO PRODUCE Fine Job Printing 259 East Center Street VOL. LXVIII Robbery Victims Identify Duo As Anaheim Bandits Cafe Holdup Last February Believed Solved; Third Gunman is Sought Although robbery charges have been filed against Harry Groves, 24, and John C. Roble, 23, in connection with the holdup of a group of men in Walt Rommel's cafe here last February 5, it is unlikely that the men will be brought to trial in Orange county, Chief of Police James S. Bouldin said today. Should the defendants, now being held in Los Angeles on charges of robbery and murder, escape conviction there they will be brought to Anaheim to face trial. Groves and Roble have been identified by five of the robbery victims as the armed bandits who walked into the back room of the cafe shortly before midnight February 5 and robbed a group of men playing cards and watching the game of more than $1600 in cash and jewelry. A third member of the gang has been tentatively identified from pictures as Leo Waller, who is also Being sought by Los Angeles police in Rainfall Figure in Anaheim Now 20.08 Inches In spite of the rains which brought slightly less than a quarter of an inch to Anaheim last week end, the season's total is still about an inch and a half behind the total to date last year, according to rainfall records kept by the Anaheim Union Water company. Showers over the week end brought .23 of an inch, raising the total for the season to 20.08 inches. On April 27, 1937, the water company's records showed that the city had received 21.63 inches of rain. An additional .11 of an inch fell on May 31 last year, bringing the total for the entire season to 21.74 inches.

Tri-County Flood Plan Deserted Is By Inland County San Bernardino Withdraws From Movement in Suprise Action Officials of Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties are meeting at Riverside this afternoon in an effort to untangle complications arising in the movement of the three counties to obtain federal flood emergency funds by San Bernardino's withdrawal from the group. Action of San Bernardino came as a surprise to the other two counties. The three counties had formed an organization recently to work together to obtain emergency funds from the federal government. This action was taken upon the request of Major Theodore Wyman, Jr., division chief of army engineers in Los Angeles. Major Wyman urged the three counties to act together so that one program of protection which would benefit all three counties could be agreed upon before requests for funds were submitted. He indicated at that time that independent projects of one county to which the other counties might object, would have slight chance. Groves and Roble have been identified by five of the robbery victims as the armed bandits who walked into the back room of the cafe shortly before midnight February 5 and robbed a group of men playing cards and watching the game of more than $1600 in cash and jewelry. A third member of the gang has been tentatively identified from pictures as Leo Waller, who is also being sought by Los Angeles police in connection with the robbery and murder in that county. Also Robbed Bank Groves had previously been identified as the bandit who twice this year held up and robbed the Southern County bank at Buena Park obtaining more than $500. Los Angeles officers have charged the two men, together with Waller, with murdering F. B. Stewart, cafe operator, during a holdup of his establishment at Belvedere Gardens last March 20. Mrs. Ann Groves, wife of the alleged murderer, and George Braun are also being held by Los Angeles police as material witnesses, although both deny participating in the crimes. Refuse to Talk Chief Bouldin questioned Groves and Roble in Los Angeles late last week, but was unable to get an admission from either man that they were responsible for the robbery here. When told that Groves had admitted the job, Roble said, "If Groves said so, it must be true," Bouldin declared. A diamond ring, valued at $1000, which was stolen during the robbery has been traced to a eaf owner at Parker, Bouldin said. The Parker man is declared to have purchased the ring for $500. Efforts will be made by Los Angeles police to recover the ring in addition to other property which the alleged criminals are believed to have sold to the cafe owner. Eli Joseph Adams Called by Death Funeral services for Eli Joseph Adams, 60, who died suddenly Tuesday evening, will be conducted tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock from Hilgenfeld chapel with Rev. A. C.

Analeigh Cactets To Mark Air Mail Postoffice to Commemorate 20th Anniversary of Original Flight Anaheim postoffice, together with others in the nation, will participate in the observance of National Air Mail week, May 15 to 21, Postmaster L. H. Hoskins announced today. May 15 is the twentieth anniversary of the first air mail flight between New York and Washington. As its principal portion of the celebration the Anaheim postoffice will place a cachet on all air mail letters mailed from this city during the week, Hoskins said. The cachet is based upon the official city seal and depicts orange groves, packing houses and juice canning plants in the foreground and the mountains in the background. It will be stamped on the envelope in blue ink. Anaheim is one of 14 postoffices in the county which will have such a cachet for that week. Persons interested in obtaining the entire group may do so by writing to Postmaster Hoskins and enclosing 87 cents to cover the cost of the air mail stamp, envelope and cachet. Either unused or cancelled stamps may be had and a choice is also given between the regular air mail stamp and the new stamp commemorating the event. Distribute Envelopes In order that every Anaheim home may have at least one air mail envelope during the week the postoffice, through cooperation of The S. Q. R. Store and F. A. Yungbluth, will deliver an envelope to each residence, Hoskins said. The new stamp to be issued for Air Mail week will be of two colors, and will be the same size as other commemorative issues. The border, of distinctive air mail design, will be printed in blue and the central design will be in red. This design will depict an eagle with outstretched wings, bearing its talons a shield, olive wreath and a bundle of arrows. The denomination is six cents. Use of air mail has grown rapidly in the past 20 years, Hoskins declared. Today, the domestic and foreign air mail service of Anaheim Realty board yesterday pledged its cooperation with a plan now being developed by chambers of commerce of Orange county to attract summer tourists to Orange county. President Free Clough appointed a committee composed of J. W. Price, Bryan Bostick and A. J. Larsen to work with the Anaheim chamber of the project.

While all who spoke apparently believed that something must be done to add to the limited parking facilities in the commercial zone there was little agreement as to the method of solving the problem. President L. C. Herron of the association explained the plan developed by the parking committee of the chamber of commerce and which has been approved by the chamber directors. This plan calls for the establishment of two parking lots in centrally located areas to be operated by S. A. McNay. Merchants participating in the plan would validate parking tickets if the customer makes a purchase of $1 or more. The plan also provides a monthly rate for business and professional persons. Best Feature Story The award for the best feature by written this semester was won by the Anaheim paper.

Mayes pointed out that the shyster lawyer cannot be entirely eliminated, but urged that laws be adopted which would prohibit the freeing of criminals by the unethical attorney. Takahashi's subject was "State Medicine," while Miss Maxfield spoke on "Freedom." "Racial Prejudice" was the theme discussed by Miss Rymer; Sullivan talked on "Unionsim or Communism" and Graves chose as his topic, "How to End Strikes."

Cal-Juices Plant Nearly Complete Cal-Juices, Inc., expects to be ready to begin production by June 1, Guy Baker, general manager, declared this week. The new $250,000 plant in the indus- association explained the plan developed by the parking committee of the chamber of commerce and which has been approved by the chamber directors. This plan calls for the establishment of two par- king lots in centrally located areas to be operated by S. A. McNay. Merchants participating in the plan would validate parking tickets if the customer makes a purchase of $1 or more. The plan also provides a monthly rate for business and professional persons who desire to park their own automobiles on the lots. Estimated Cost $200 Herron explained that the estimated cost of maintaining the two stations would be between $200 and $225 a month. This amount would include supervision six days a week. It was brought out that safety enforcement of the city's ordinance prohibiting over-time parking on business streets would be necessary to make the plan succeed. H. E. W. Barnes suggested that such enforcement be placed in effect for a definite period before the commercial parking station plan is adopted in order to create a demand for such service. City Judge Frank Tausch informed the group that officers are ticketing cars found to have parked over-time, but that in many instances the name of the owner cannot be learned. In these cases the tickets are made out to "John Doe" and the owner rarely appears before the judge. Judge Tausch declared he assesses a fine of $1 to local residents who appear with parking citations, but usually only warns out-of-town residents. Cooperation Urged L. H. Hoskins recommended that the present plan be given an immediate trial and that professional men be urged to cooperate by purchasing space by the month. Dr. H. A. Johnston suggested that supervision over the lots is unnecessary and if eliminated the lots could be operated by the chamber of commerce on a basis of free parking to customers. Lars Lund spoke of the success of Long Beach's experiment with parking meters and also urged the installation of traffic signals at the intersection of Los Angeles and Center streets.
