High School Grid Outlook Mediocre Coach Dick Glover Worrying Over Lack of Adequate Reserve Strength BY RUSS McCOMB "Our material is light, and every team will be gunning for us," was the answer which Coach Dick Glover gave the writer when he asked about prospects for Anaheim union high school's varsity football team this fall. Practice got under way the first of this week, with the opening of school. Glover then went on to say that his 11 returning lettermen, and some of the graduates from last year's lightweight squad, will give him a pretty strong starting lineup, but that the pinch will come when substitutions are necessary. A letterman is returning for every position except one guard and fullback, Glover said. The veteran mentor, who last year turned out a Sunset league championship winner, can start Don Berger, 160, and Jim Betzsold, 168, at ends; Edgar Olson, 180, and Bob Whittemore, 185, at tackles; Dick McDonald, 170, guard; Joe Wollenman, 177, center; either Bill Lewis, 172, or Bob Manion, 165, tailback, and Bud Mahoney, 164, Earl Williams, 165, or Paul McCleister, 155, at the two halfbacks. All won their varsity letters last year, and each should be a better player this fall. Glover has several more boys who were on the varsity squad last year without winning letters, and a few more who gained some experience on the Class B team. People, Spots In The News YOUNGEST DOUBLES CHAMPS in 59-year history of national tennis tourney are Ted Schroeder (left) and Jack Kramer, both 19-year-old Californians. Teamed together for only eight months, they stormed through veteran Henry Prusoff-Gardnar Mulloy pair in straight sets, 6-4, 8-6, 9-7, in final of U.S. title meet at Brookline, Mass. TUNING UP for coming American Legion convention at Boston, Sophie Tucker, "last of the red-hot mammas" and star of gigantic Cavalcade of Stars, feature entertainment of the meeting, sings out "God Bless America" while John Stringer, adjutant of Schenley Post No., 1190, sponsor of the Cavalcade, lends an ear. McDonald, 170, guard; Joe Wollenman, 177, center; either Bill Lewis, 172, or Bob Manion, 165, tailback, and Bud Mahoney, 164, Earl Williams, 165, or Paul McCleister, 155, at the two halfbacks. All won their varsity letters last year, and each should be a better player this fall. Glover has several more boys who were on the varsity squad last year without winning letters, and a few more who gained some experience on the Class B team last year. His big problem is developing these players to the point where they will be capable replacements for the regulars. There is no questioning the fact that the Colonists' Sunset league opponents will be pointed toward the Anaheim game. That situation always arises for the previous season's champions. Glover, incidentally, is not given to meaningless moaning about his club's chances, which is a good indication that the boys have their tasks cut out for them if they expect to repeat that year's conquest. Glover will be assisted again this season by John Wallin, who has been in charge of the linemen for the past few seasons. A turnout of about 70 boys greeted Coach Chet Shirk, coach of the B team, early this week, and Coach S. L. Keith has about 40 youngsters seeking berths on the C outfit. The Colonists will play their first engagement on October 5 at Santa Ana municipal bowl, when Anaheim and Orange pair up against Santa Ana and Tustin, Glover announced. The first Sunset league fray is scheduled for October 18, with Excelsior coming to Anaheim. Tyreman Leaves on Deer Hunting Trip Roy Tyreman, 921 North Sabina street, and Bob Poore of Covina, left Saturday evening for the Huntington Lake district for their annual deer hunting expedition. Grub-staking themselves for ten days, and packing in ten miles, they expect to bring back the limit allotted to each hunter. Last year, they shot four deer.

TWO COUNTY RESIDENTS PRAISE INQUIRY SERVICE OF RED CROSS Two county residents have reason to praise the Inquiry and Information Service of the American Red Cross, it was disclosed this week by Mrs. Laura R. Warren, Orange county executive secretary. The two, Mrs. Elin O. Myrelin of 113 East Seventeenth street, Costa Mesa, and Mrs. Jennie Barens of Huntington Beach, have received direct word from relatives in Finland and Poland, respectively, through the service. The Orange county cases are but two of the many thousands handled to date by the inquiry and information service of the American Red Cross through Red Cross chapters covering every city and county in the land. The service operates to and from those countries where regular postal, telegraph and other communications systems have been disrupted by the war, Mrs. Warren said. The inquiry and information service — the locating of lost friends and relatives in combat areas of Europe—is an important branch of the ceaseless, skillful war relief work which the Ameri- can Red Cross at present is carrying on. Through its affiliates and agents abroad, it is able to bring to Americans and to foreigners residing in America, not only priceless information as to the whereabouts and welfare of loved ones who cannot be reached or contacted through regular communications channels, but more often than not personal greetings from the loved ones themselves. In every country touched by conflict the Red Cross has set up machinery for reaching the friend and dear ones of those in safe zones. All letters are sent from the National Red Cross office in Washington, D. C., to the International Red Cross office at Geneva Switzerland, by clipper ship, and from there are sent out to the various Red Cross societies who are to attempt to locate the personal message to the National American Red Cross, which it turn again contacts the chapter from which the inquiry originated. Application blanks of inquiry are in every Red Cross chapte- office. Charles E. Griffith, home service chairman for Anaheim will make out application for any one interested. North Street Auto Mishaps Hurts Two Pasquel Flores, 25, of 317 West Santa Ana street, Anaheim and Emitterio R. Ramos, 20, of San Bernardino, were slightly injured Sunday afternoon when the car which Ramos was reportedly driving overturned in North street, between East street and Placentia avenues. Both were treated at Orange county hospital. Ramos also faces charges of driving an automobile without the owner's permission, and driving without an operator's license. Mrs. Elaine Young Files Divorce Suit Mrs. Elaine Young, 16, of Anaheim this week filed a divorce suit in superior court charging her husband, Raymond J. Young, with extreme cruelty. The suit was filed through the wife's father, Arnold Maas, as her legal guardian. The Youngs were married at Los Vegas last May 25 and separated July 28, the complaint says.

ANAHEIM GAZETTE Airplane Factory Slated at Beach Construction to Start Soon on Huntington Beach 40-Acre Site Construction of a new airplane factory for the American Aircraft company on a 40-acre municipally owned site east of Huntington Beach is expected to start immediately, it was disclosed this week. A contract agreement for leasing the 40-acre site to the airplane company will be entered into formally at the city council meeting next Monday night. During an informal meeting last Monday, the Huntington Beach councilmen instructed City Attorney Ray Overacker to draw up the necessary lease. The first unit of the factory will cost around $150,000 and that will be erected immediately. A large payroll will be established at the factory that will manufacture both 125 h.p. motors and airplanes. As soon as possible motors will be sent both to the United States and to the Canadian governments. Large orders are then to be expected from both sources. William K. Kinner, designer of Kinner motor and president of the company, and William Fox, manager, who have been in Huntington Beach looking over the proposed location, will begin at once on the construction of the factory, it was said.
