Anaheim Personalities
Richard Keith
Radio has its "man with a thousand voices," but Anaheim can come pretty close to that with its "man of a thousand (almost) interests." Holder of that distinction is Richard Keith, young manager of the Austin's American Cleaners at 308 East Center street.
Reading from left to right, Keith is: a graduate chiropractor, a leader of orchestras, a better than average craftsman at linoleum inlay work, a student of numerology, a proficient swimmer and tennis player, and an author of some success. He devotes most of his time, however, to the management of his business.
As a matter of record, Keith was born in San Diego in 1916, and graduated from the Palmer School at Davenport, Iowa, after attending the University of Iowa. He came to Anaheim in 1938 because he found it a progressive community, and has resided here ever since. His wife is the former Lois Turkington, a native of Michigan.
His love for music took him into the field of orchestras and he has directed four of them at different times. He, himself, plays the drum and the xylophone. Being without a band now, he devotes much of his leisure time to his linoleum inlay work. He admits that a popular weekly magazine has accepted some of his small articles in past years.
Despite his own accomplishments,
New Freeway To Benefit City By Population Gain
Centralization of the Business District Also Would Aid Anaheim, Frank C. Balfour Tells Booster Body Members
Anaheim will benefit from the proposed new Manchester freeway in two ways; increased population for the city and centralization of the business district.
This statement was made by Frank C. Balfour, supervising right-of-way agent for the state division of highways, during his brief talk at the annual membership meeting of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce Thursday night at the Elk clubhouse.
The increased population would be the result of shorter driving time to Los Angeles, which would tend to bring men who are working in that city to Anaheim to establish their homes. At the same time, Balfour predicted that the next boom in residential building will be in the district southeast of Los Angeles.
Centralize Business
Business will be centralized by virtue of the fact that the freeway will be fenced on both sides and businesses will be prohibited, the speaker said. He gave statistics to show how business property values in Los Angeles have dropped sharply because of decentralization.
Mrs. Sandilands Still in Hospital
Anaheim Woman Hurt When Struck by Car; Others Also are Injured
Mrs. G. W. Sandilands, of 80 North Clementine street, who was injured along with her husband and Mrs. Tom Scott, of 92 North Clementine street, when struck by an automobile at Santa Ana Monday evening, is still at St. Joseph hospital, it was reported yesterday afternoon. She sued...

Being without a band now, he devotes much of his leisure time to his linoleum inlay work. He admits that a popular weekly magazine has accepted some of his small articles in past years.
Despite his own accomplishments, Keith is still mighty proud of the fact that his mother is the only woman in California to hold the Carnegie medal for bravery. He believes there are only 13 women in the United States who hold that honor.
E. Lambert Jones
Young men seem to be the order for this week, with E. Lambert Jones taking his place as an Anaheim personality worth knowing. The "E" stands for Edward, and Jones is the owner and operator of a service station at 345 West Center street, at the corner of Helena street.
A resident of Anaheim since he was two years old, Jones completed a refrigeration course at R.A.C.I. of Chicago after graduating from Anaheim union high school. After some three years in refrigeration work in Los Angeles, Jones returned to Anaheim to go into the service station business for himself.
Jones is one of those unusual young men whose hobby is one that is of particular benefit to his business life. He is a student of promotion, sales work, efficiency engineering and experimental work beneficial to mankind when he isn't working on vocabulary time. Balfour predicted that the next boom in residential building will be in the district southeast of Los Angeles.
Centralize Business
Business will be centralized by virtue of the fact that the freeway will be fenced on both sides and businesses will be prohibited, the speaker said. He gave statistics to show how business property values in Los Angeles have dropped sharply because of decentralization of business there.
Manchester freeway, Balfour said, will be a link in a proposed freeway system in southern California which ultimately will form a loop of freeways around Los Angeles, with the new boulevards entering the metropolis from all directions. It will be three or four years before major construction work on Manchester can start, because funds are not now available, he added. First work will be done in Los Angeles, and will progress toward Anaheim and Santa Ana.
Freeway Defined
Balfour defined a freeway as being a highway with inside tracks for fast, long-distance traffic, and outside tracks for slower and local traffic. He also told of the greater safety to motorists which a freeway provides, declared that the Los Angeles metropolitan area is the "slaughter house" of the world as far as traffic is concerned. Eighty-three percent of fatal accidents are eliminated by construction of freeways, he said.
E. N. Whittemore, district right-of-way agent, traced the route of the Manchester freeway in Orange county. It will start at Santa Ana boulevard and Main street, and will follow Santa Ana boulevard to Chapman avenue. It will then go northerly along the Southern Pacific's present right of way to Miraflores station, where Manchester and 101 highway now intersect. From Miraflores, the freeway will go along the present Manchester to South street in Anaheim. From there to Euclid avenue, the route has not been definitely established.
Follow Manchester
From Euclid avenue, the freeway will follow the present Manchester to Orangethorpe avenue, and then will go along the railroad-right-of-way through Buena Park to the county lines, swinging back to Manchester at Artesia street.
Anaheim Woman Hurt When Struck by Car; Others Also are Injured
Mrs. G. W. Sandilands, of 80 North Clementine street, who was injured along with her husband and Mrs. Tom Scott, of 92 North Clementine street, when struck by an automobile at Santa Ana Monday evening, is still at St. Joseph hospital, it was reported yesterday afternoon. She suffered a severe blow on the head and back injuries. It was not known yesterday how long she would be confined to her bed.
Sandilands and Mrs. Scott were less seriously injured, escaping with numerous body bruises which left them sore and stiff yesterday. Both were able to return to their homes after the mishap.
A fourth member of the party Mrs. Lillian Lawrence of 80 North Clementine street, escape injury.
The three Anaheim residents were hurt when they were struck down by a car reportedly driven by Carl M. Stein, 44, of 213 Greenleaf street, Santa Ana, while walking across Broadway at Fifth street. They, with Mrs. Lawrence were just leaving a theater and were walking to their car. Mr Lawrence saw the approach to Stein's car and stepped back to safety, but was unable to warn his companions in time for them to avoid being struck.
Sandilands is manager of the Anaheim Valencia Orange association.
Juvenile Parade Entries Sought
Letters were sent out yesterday by the Chamber of Commerce for all elementary schools in Anaheim and within the Anaheim unicipal school district calling attention to the administrators to the juvenile parade feature of the annual Hallowe'en celebration and asking their cooperation in promoting the activity.
Attention was called to the cash prizes ranging from $1 to $10 which will be awarded for decorated floats, toy wagons, doll buques, pets, stunts and costumes and it was suggested that students build floats to represent individual schools. J Ben Kau bars is chairman of the juvenile parade.
G. C. Mahaffey
The chances are that nobody will stop you on the street today and ask you who is the best window decorator in Anaheim, but if one does, you can answer quickly and authoritatively, "C. G. Mahaffey."
If the interrogator demands proof for your statement, simply tell him that Mahaffey has won six first prizes in window decorating competitions in Anaheim since he came here in June, 1926, to go into partnership with L. C. Vincent in the Vincent Furniture store. The business, which is located at 504 West Center street, now has a third partner, August Fitz.
Probably the most important reason for Mahaffey's success as a window decorator is that it has become his most interesting hobby. He formerly devoted most of his spare time to hunting and fishing, and became quite proficient as a trout fisherman, but he has neglected that sport of late for his

Follow Manchester
From Euclid avenue, the freeway will follow the present Manchester to Orangethorpe avenue, and then will go along the railroad-right-of-way through Buena Park to the county lines, swinging back to Manchester at Artesia street.
Colored motion pictures of freeways and parkways in New York state were displayed, as were pictures of highways in southern California. Exhibits of models of freeways were also shown.
Introduction of guests and new members by President Louis H. Hoskins and Secretary John A. Morgan was followed by a talk by Judge Frank Tausch, who reviewed the accomplishments of the Anaheim booster body from its early days to the present time.
Highlight of the entertainment was the appearance of Tony Cabooch, radio star, who introduced himself as Senor Phillipe Hosea Rodriguez, South American ambassador of goodwill. His numerous jokes and his humorous report, in rhyme, of the meeting was well received by the large audience. Music during the early part of the evening was provided by the Worthy family of Glendale, a quartet of accordionists.

That the city of Anaheim is concerned about the lack of activity on the Carbon Canyon flood project, principally the relief channel, became evident this week when it was disclosed that City Clerk Charles E. Griffith, under instructions from the city council, wrote to the county board of supervisors requesting to know the present status of the project.

South Americans Friendly to U.S.
The South American peoples would be friendly to the United States should the Americas become involved in the European war, was the opinion expressed Monday by Col. Wilbur Tupper, professor of English at Whittier college, during his talk before members of the Anaheim Rotary club. Neither the German or Spanish element in South America would have much influence, he added.
Before expressing his opinion, Col. Tupper traced the racial, commercial and governmental backgrounds of the South American nations. South America has many tropical products which the United States needs, and also produces almost everything that can be produced in this country, he said.
The South American peoples want a doctrine of defense in which all are signatories, rather than one of protection by the United States, the speaker said. At present they fear absorption by the United States.
Manchester Freeway Matters and Truck Route are Main Subjects
Traffic problems provided the major items of business before the Anaheim city council Tuesday evening, with the proposed Manchester freeway and a proposed truck route through Anaheim being discussed.
Sion of highways, J. Irish and E. N. Whittimore, other officials of the division, attended the meeting and discussed informally with the council the problem of routing Manchester through Anaheim.
Contrary to the impression left by Whittimore in his short talk before the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce last Thursday night, no definite plans for the route have yet been presented to the council. Several sketches have been drawn, both by the state department and the city's engineering department, but discussions have not yet gone beyond the preliminary stages.
Streets are Problems
The principal problems facing the state highway division and the city are those pertaining to closing of streets within the city, which embraces the question of underpasses and overpasses, it is understood. Several more or less important streets leading out of Anaheim on the west and south sides are involved in the problem, and a solution satisfactory to all parties concerned is being sought.
In regards to the truck route through the city, the ordinance committee was instructed to draw up an ordinance which would prohibit truck traffic on Broadway. It is the plan to route the trucks along Santa Ana street, between the eastern end of that thoroughfare and Manchester boulevard. At present, trucks carrying loads of gasoline are prohibited from travelling on Center and Los Angeles streets.
Contract for supplying the city with $1000 worth of electric lamps during the coming year was awarded to the Bungalow Electric company.

While present plans call for the immediate start of construction on three new dwellings, a fourth will also be commenced within a short time, Hart said. Approval for FHA is expected within the next two or three days.

Court Action Starts Tuesday Before Judge Westover Over New Order
Court action to determine whether candidates of the Communist party will be able to have their names included on the ballot for the November 5 election got under way in Superior Judge Harry C. Westover's court this week. The action is a hearing to show cause why a restraining order issued by Judge Westover should not be made permanent.
The restraining order was issued against Secretary of State Paul Peek and prohibits him from certifying the names of Communist candidates. As Peek must certify the names by October 5, the court action must be concluded by that time if the Communist party is to be successful in defeating the court's original action.
Battery of Attorneys
Appearing in court for the plaintiffs, The America's Sixth Column, Incorporated, were Attorneys Thomas McFadden, Anaheim; William C. Ring, Joseph Fainer and Bernard C. Calhoun, all of Los Angeles. Attorneys for the defense were Deputy State Attorney F. Walter French, Joseph L. Anderson of San Francisco, and Leo Gallagher.
According to the attorneys for the defense, the signing of the restraining order would disenfranchise the Communist voters who would be forced to vote for a candidate of another political party. This, they argued, would be a violation of their constitutional rights.
"Protecting Rights"
Attorney Fainer, arguing in favor of the signature of the order, declared: "We're trying to protect the rights of the American people and of Americans and not persons who favor the overthrow of our government by force and violence."
The temporary restraining order which Judge Westover signed Tuesday noon was the second such to which he had placed his signature within the past two weeks. The new order became necessary when it was pointed out that he hearing set when the first order was signed was two days beyond the maximum time allowed by law. Gallagher and Anderson made an effort Tuesday morning to persuade the jurist not to sign the second restraining order, but for FHA is expected within the next two or three days.
During his short talk to the directors, Hart declared, "I am completely sold on Anaheim as a residential city. I have had splendid cooperation from the city council and the chamber of commerce ever since I started my plans for a subdivision here."
18 Lots Ready
The developer went on to say that he has 18 lots now ready to build upon, and 24 additional lots are available as soon as he wants them. He reminded the directors that he has placed a bond with the city to construct 15 new residences, and he expects to fulfill his obligation in as short a period of time as possible.
An office will be constructed on the tract within a short time, although for the present the double garage of the first unit to be built will be utilized for that purpose. Hart stressed the fact he will use local materials and labor whereever possible. It is Hart's plan to keep three new buildings under construction at all times, he added.
Plan Model Home
First steps are also being taken to furnish the first home completed as a model home, and a hostess will be employed to display the dwelling, the developer said.
The homes to be placed under construction will feature the latest and newest types of architecture, comprising two and three-bedroom homes, with large living room, dining room, bath and kitchen. Each will be built under rigid FHA inspection at all stages, he said, and will be available to purchasers on a basis of small down payment and low monthly installments.
Harvey R. Field builder for the subdivider, was introduced and talked briefly on the types of houses to be erected.
A third speaker during the meeting was J. L. Mills, of the Bank of America's FHA department, who explained what the FHA is and how it works. He was accompanied by William Claussen of the Anaheim branch of the Bank of America.
