Today, however, the house stands on Elm street, between Helena and Clementine streets. Ey, an attorney now living in Los Angeles, is well known in Anaheim. For many years he has made it a practice to celebrate his birthday anniversary by coming to this city and visiting the dwelling in which he was born and calling on old time friends.

Youth's Attitude On Problems of Today Disclosed National President of 20-30 Clubs Speaks to City's Merchant Group The young man of today most wants security; he is well aware of his responsibilities as a citizen and accepts them; and he is not particularly interested in politics. These three statements were the highlights of a talk given this morning to members of the Anaheim Merchants association by Ralph Layton of Fullerton national president of 20-30 clubs. The composite picture of the young man of today was drawn by Layton as the result of his contact with 20-30 club members throughout the west. The picture was crystallized in answer to a number of questions put to Layton by a group of prominent business men in Los Angeles recently. "No Need to Worry" "I don't believe the older men of this country have any reason to worry about the nation's future," Layton said. The only way the nation might fail, the speaker added, would be to engage in another war. The United States is financially unable to carry on another conflict of the magnitude of the world war. Twenty-Thirty club has done much for the young men of the Paul Bridges is Slugged by Two Youths Who Take $54 in Holdup Although police have thoroughly traced down two or three leads which appeared to be possible solutions to the crime, the two youths, apparently about 18 years of age, who slugged Paul Bridge, and robbed the service station where he is employed of $54 have not yet been apprehended. Bridges was alone at the Eo Schlueter service station at Los Anageles street and Broadway shortly before 1 o'clock last Saturday morning when two youths entered the station and asked to purchase some tire patches. They were walking. The attendant procured the merchandise and as he went to the cash register to make change for 50 cents one of the boys slugged him on the head. Knocked semi-conscious, Bridge was dragged from the station before the assailants removed all the money in the cash register. The thugs were described as of being average height and of medium build. One, the larger wore a brown suit and was hatless. The other man was dressed in blue overalls, a dark jacket and white shoes. Drains to Follow Repair of Levees No flood drainage project of only local importance will be undertaken until Santa Ana river levee. Are repaired. The county board o.supervisors established that policy last Saturday. Several local projects have beer pending for sometime and the matter was brought to a head when Supervisor N. E. West moved that a PWA project of $56,897 be approved for an East Tustin storm drain program. West's motion was lost for lack of a second. Supervisors held that repair of river levees is more important than any local project and must be accomplished as soon as possible. Postal Business Continues Gains ness men in Los Angeles recently. "No Need to Worry" "I don't believe the older men of this country have any reason to worry about the nation's future," Layton said. The only way the nation might fail, the speaker added, would be to engage in another war. The United States is financially unable to carry on another conflict of the magnitude of the world war. Twenty-Thirty club has done much for the young men of the nation, the speaker said. It is provided a philosophy of the golden rule from which young men have found something worthwhile that cannot be bought with money. Layton contended that the 20-30 club aided to a great extent in holding youth together in spite of the effects of the depression. Clubs Cooperative Layton said the background of the present day service clubs was the first time two or more persons combined their efforts to accomplish a purpose. The clubs as they are today were started about 35 years ago and are now an important part of any community Society today demands cooperative effort. Layton said, and service clubs aid in providing that effort. All service clubs have some of the elements of the old trade guilds and of the church, he said. Charles H. Atwell, vice president of the association, presided this morning in the absence of President Everett M. Cone. The speaker was introduced by J. F. Faulkner.

With him is a crew of three other men. On his arrival at Seattle last evening, Captain Mattis telephoned his mother in Anaheim, reporting his safe arrival and giving the high lights of his flight. Yesterday's hop was the first of a series that will take them to Juneau. The Anaheim youth and his crew carry with them the hopes of the Pan American Airways, and the United States traders, that the arduous, 11-day grind by train and boat from Seattle to Nome, farthest north United States city, will soon be clipped to less than 17 hours. 24-Hour Trip It will bring southern California within 24 hours of Nome, although more than 330 miles lies between them. Experimental flights from Seattle to Juneau, almost 1000 miles north over country that knows no emergency fields, will begin next week. Equipped with special technical and weather research gear, the Sikorsky clipper will carry only its skilled crew at first. Both landplane and seaplane navigating equipment will fly with Captain Mattis. The former he used in his long overland journey from Miami, Fla., to Los Angeles, along American-Airlines' southern route. On his flights into the northland, Captain Mattis must fly by instrument, map and his own judgment. Service Forecast Pan American Airways officials forecast eventual service to Juneau—and thence to Fairbanks and Nome—in high-flying four-engined landplanes. These forty-seaters are now under way at the Boeing plant in Seattle. But this must await the government providing suitable airport facilities in Alaska, they said. Howard Hughes on Monday predicted an eventual passenger route to the Orient and Soviet Russia by way of Alaska, the Bering Sea and Siberia. Holds Four Records Nome will be a way station on this tortuous air plane. It lies 500 miles north of Fairbanks—four hours by air and two full days by railroad.

Sheridan will be host to the Birthday club at Earle Jackson's fountain. Kiwanians Heed Indigent Menace Members of the Anaheim Kiwanis club Tuesday approved a resolution sponsored by the California Citizens association calling attention of the United States government to the heavy influx of indigents into the state. Considerable discussion of the matter was held with State Senator Harry Westover as one of the main speakers. He said California is the victim of economic circumstances and disagreed with a contention by Steve Gallagher that restrictive laws could be passed on the basis of health menace. J Ben Kaulbars was inducted into membership in the club by Fred A. Backs. President Glenn Merrill and Dr. H. A. Nelson spoke on Kiwanis aims and ideals. Health Clinic for August Cancelled The health clinic for well babies held each month in Anaheim under the direction of the county health department will not be conducted this month, it was announced this week by Miss Imogene Abbey, county nurse. Cancellation was caused by the fact that Dr. E. C. Russell will be on vacation on August 22, the date the clinic was scheduled. Howard Hughes on Monday predicted an eventual passenger route to the Orient and soviet Russia by way of Alaska, the Bering Sea and Siberia. Holds Four Records Nome will be a way station on this tortuous air plane. It lies 500 miles north of Fairbanks—four hours by air and two full days by railroad. With the Sikorsky "baby" Clipper, chosen because it holds four world's records for heavyload flights at high altitude, the Pan American pilots will hoist the curtain on the third act of a four-act drama of conquest of Alaska's navigable air. In this craft, which once winged through a minus-40-degree temperature at 27,000 feet with a capacity load, Captain Mattis will pave the way for passenger flights next year to Juneau. He will demonstrate the feasibility of a seven-hour (15 from Los Angeles) service from Seattle to Uncle Sam's "other land." Opened Other Lines After the line to Alaska is established it will link Pan American lines from Alaska to Buenos Aires. Since last Christmas Captain Mattis has been flying from Miami to Rio de Janeiro and Buenos Aires on the Southern Clipper. In addition, he has opened several lines to Mexico and South America. Captain Mattis is the descendant of another pioneer. His grandfather, a well-known sailing boat captain, made one of the fastest trips by sailing ship from Boston Lights to San Francisco, covering the distance in 109 days.
