Anaheim Personalities
Ray Reafsnyder
Ray Reafsnyder may not be an Horatio Alger "rags to riches" hero, but he's done pretty well by himself, nevertheless; advancing from clerk to partner in the Smith-Reafsnyder Furniture company in the not too many years he has been with the firm.
A glance at Reafsnyder's sales record gives good indication why he has moved to the top so fast. Among other things, he has won two worthwhile prizes for his sales of refrigerators. He contributes much of his success to his motto, "Honesty is the Best Policy."
Born at Delphas, Kansas, in 1903, Raymond Donald Reafsnyder started work as an employee of a gasoline distributor after graduating from the high school in his native town. He later sold automobiles for a while before leaving Kansas for Garden Grove, where he had an uncle residing. After looking around the county, Reafsnyder chose Anaheim as the town with the best opportunity and he has been here ever since then. The date of his coming here, by the way, was 1926.
Two years after reaching California, Reafsnyder persuaded Miss Irene Natland of Garden Grove to be his wife. They now have a daughter, Dana Laurene, who will be four years old next Sunday.
Reafsnyder likes to get away for a bit of trout fishing at times, but if that can't be arranged he finds considerable pleasure and

Hallowe'en Festival Holds Anaheim’s Attention Today
Annual Celebration Opens With Breakfast At City Park and Will Be Climaxed By Mammoth Parade Tonight
Hilarity reigned supreme from early morning today and will continue until after midnight tonight as the 17th annual Anaheim Hallowe’en celebration got under way at 7 o'clock with the open air breakfast at the city park. More than 50 persons assembled at the park to partake of a breakfast arranged and served by Co-Chairmen Herb Eldred and John Boege and to witness an entertainment obtained by program Chairman H. E. W. Barnes.
As soon as the program following the breakfast was completed the crowd moved to the business area where a program of entertainment was presented on Center street between Lemon and Clementine streets and hundreds of persons wearing appropriate Hallowe'en costumes paraded up and down the streets.
Kangaroo Court Held
Interest was centered starting at 11 o'clock in the 100 block of West Center street when a hilarious kangaroo court was staged under supervision of the American Legion post. Hardly recognizable in their weird costumes were the triumvirate of judges, Thomas L.

with the best opportunity and he has been here ever since then. The date of his coming here, by the way, was 1926.
Two years after reaching California, Reafsnyder persuaded Miss Irene Natland of Garden Grove to be his wife. They now have a daughter, Dana Laurene, who will be four years old next Sunday.
Reafsnyder likes to get away for a bit of trout fishing at times, but if that can't be arranged he finds considerable pleasure and recreation in working in his flower gardens. He bowls on occasion, plays a good game of contract bridge and enjoys all types of outdoor sports.
Anaheim Lions club has an active member in Reafsnyder, as does the Anaheim lodge of Elks. Before joining the former organization, he was a member of the 20-30 club and served one term as its president. A Protestant in his religious beliefs and a Democrat politically, Reafsnyder also gives considerable time to these activities.
Eugenie Hale
There may be someone living in Anaheim who has crossed the Atlantic ocean between the United States and France more frequently than has Mrs. Eugenie Hale, proprietor of the Valencia hotel, but to date he or she is not known by this writer. At any rate, any competitor will have had to make eight round trips to exceed Mrs. Hale's record.
Probably the fact that Mrs. Hale was born at Bayonne, France, in 1897 has had something to do with her numerous trips back and fourth. She attended St. Mary's private school for girls at Bayonne before coming to the United States.
Four years ago last June, Mrs. Hale came to Anaheim to take over the operation of the Valencia hotel. She was attracted to this city, she said, because of the business possibilities here and the people she knew who lived here. She had been operating a hotel in San Clemente before deciding to establish herself in this city.
August Fitz
Strange as it may seem, August Fitz, partner in the Vincent Furniture company, has a record of business advancement that almost parallels that of Ray Reafsnyder, which was outlined in the street between Lemon and Clementine streets and hundreds of persons wearing appropriate Hallowe'en costumes paraded up and down the streets.
Kangaroo Court Held
Interest was centered starting at 11 o'clock in the 100 block of West Center street when a hilarious kangaroo court was staged under supervision of the American Legion post. Hardly recognizable in their weird costumes were the triumvirate of judges, Thomas L. McFadden, Leo J. Friis and William P. Webb. Patrolmen who hailed the culprits before the court were Oscar Heying, Carroll Cone and Ray Van Wagoner, while the patrol wagon was driven by Warren Hodges.
As the Gazette went to press this afternoon the juvenile parade was marching from the corner of Center and Claudina streets to the La Palma park stadium, where a two-hour circus was to be presented at the close of the kiddies parade. Indications this morning were that more youngsters would participate in that event than last year, according to Chairman J Ben Kaulbars.
Parade This Evening
The climax of the celebration, of course, was to come at 7 o'clock in the evening when the mammoth parade of floats, decorated cars, musical organizations, horses and marching units marched along Center street to Ohio street and along Broadway to the Santa Fe tracks. Sheriff Jesse L. Elliott is to be the grand marshal of the parade and the members of the county board of supervisors are to ride in the official automobile. Anaheim city councilmen will not be so fortunate, and will be carried along the line of march in a 1909 model Ford.
Assignments of positions made Tuesday and yesterday assure that the parade will be one of the largest in the history of the evening. Chairman John W. Price said. At the same time he pointed to the excellent work done by chairmen of committees obtaining floats, cars, marching units, musical organizations and horsemen and women. It is expected that approximately 50,000 persons will line Center street and Broadway to watch the colorful event.
Immediately following the parade, a vaudeville program will be presented at the Greek theater in the Anaheim city park. At 9 o'clock the grand costume ball will start at the Elks clubhouse and continue until after midnight.
Marking their centennial celebration, the Sisters of Providence held a gala ceremony Saturday at the St. Boniface church. The organization operates the Marywood Catholic Central high school for girls in Anaheim. The Mother Colony is in Indiana.
A truly inspiring pageant was carefully worked out in dance given by the girls of the Marywood high school, telling the story of the Sisters of Providence and their beginning in America. Careful interpretations told of the arrival of the sisterhood in Indiana in 1840 from France and their diffulties in establishing the organization.
Beginning the day's activities pontifical high mass was held at the St. Boniface chuch with the Most Rev. John J. Cantwell presiding.
Mary Elizabeth Prueitt was the narrator for the pageant that followed. Participating were Katherine Bevins, Genevieve Helene Nancy Ganahl, Patsy McGraw, Jacqueline Sekeris, Suzanne Duext, Barbara Heying, Paulie Agee, Eugenia Allec, Dorothy Oterkamp, Frances Mitchell, Suanne Sexton, Mary Stehly, Phyll Garcia, Dorothy Boden, Lucia Garcia, Rose Marie Meric, Margaret Farabough, Joan Truxal Lyla Burrows, Anna Marie Steidgen, Rita Patin, Marjorie Frustr Mary Kern, Mary Brosnan, Bea Kirsch, Patricia Dillon, Lydia Leon, Jean Napier, Goldie Seker Billie Wilkinson, Oriol Ellio Marie Foresburg, Virginia Faraugh, Amelia Hernandez and Dorothy Cryan. Mrs. Sarah Teschke was the dramatic director; Mrs. Eva Roy was in charge of the dancing and Mrs. Yoland Phillipson was accompanist.
After the celebration, a luncheon was held at Marywood for priests and sisters of St. Mary Woods alumni. Approximately 150 attended.
Wendell Willkie Rally Schedule
August Fitz
Strange as it may seem, August Fritz, partner in the Vincent Furniture company, has a record of business advancement that almost parallels that of Ray Reafsnyder, which was outlined in the first of this week's personality sketches. He, too, made the advance from "general helper" at the store to a full partnership in a relatively few years, 13 to be exact.
Fritz came to Anaheim in March, 1921, from his native city of Winnipeg, Canada, when illness in the family made it necessary to establish a home in a new locality. He (Continued on Page 8)

Earl Hamilton, New Leader of State League Club, Now in Anaheim
Work will get under way next Monday morning on the project of constructing additional bleachers at the La Palma park baseball stadium. Work to be done Monday consists largely of moving WPA office and storeroom buildings onto the site, City Engineer E. P. Hapgood said today.
The new stands will seat 1140 persons and will be placed along the first base line. They will harmonize with the present fence and other structures and will have office and storeroom spaces built in. Built to a length of 132 feet, the stands will balance those already along the third base line. They will have 14 rows of seats and will be the same height as the present grandstand.
It is expected that the project will be completed within three months, thus assuring that all work will be done by the time Connie Mack and his Philadelphia Athletics arrive next spring to begin training for the 1941 American Season's First Storm is Heavy
Ranchers in the Anaheim area and the rest of Orange county were benefitted by the rainstorm of last Friday and Saturday which brought a total of 1.16 inches of rain to Anaheim. The total, as recorded by the Anaheim Union Water company, is far below last year's total as this time of 5.81 inches.
The storm began Friday and varied in intensity throughout the day and night, with .89 of an inch being recorded at 8 o'clock Saturday morning. The remaining .27 of an inch fell Saturday, particularly during two heavy showers that occurred shortly before noon and during the late afternoon.
Most of the 5.81 inches recorded at this date a year ago fell during the heavy storm which ended the late September heat wave.

Two Bandits Rob Anaheim Market
Search for Gunmen Not Yet Successful; Robbers Escape on Foot
Search for the two armed bandits who late Thursday night held up and robbed the El Faro ranch market on North Palm street, just outside the city limits, has so far been in vain, but sheriff's officers still have hopes of capturing the gunmen. The pair escaped on foot through an orange grove with about $225 in cash and checks.
The robbery occurred as Placentia Rodriguez, proprietor of the store, and his staff of three clerks were preparing to close the market for the day at 10 o'clock. The two gunmen, each with a 38-calibre revolver in his hand, entered the store and demanded the day's receipts. With Rodiguez at the time were Mariano Siera, Jesse Rivera and Pete Delgado. As soon as the robbers had obtained the money from the cash register they backed from the store.
Shoot at Clerk
Despite previous warnings not to follow them, Delgado started to pursue the bandits, only to be greeted by a shower of bullets, none of which took effect. Investigating officers were told by J. W. Heinz, rancher living near the store, that he heard eight shots fired, while patrons at a barbecue stand nearby also reported hearing shots fired.
The gunmen ran to an automobile parked up the highway a short distance, but when the engine of the car failed to start they ran into an orange grove. Officers said the car was registered to Ralph Grill of 427 Temple street, Los Angeles, and that there was a quantity of patent medicine in the back seat of the vehicle.
Both of the bandits were described as Mexicans. One was 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighting 160 pounds, with curley black hair and wearing a grey suit. He was about 38 years of age. The second man about the same age, was 5 feet 6 inches tall, weighing about 145 pounds. His hair was black and straight and he wore a black sweater and grey pants. Neither Washington, via Sacramento.
On the basis of the semi-olistings, two Anaheim men in trict 173 had their numb drawn in the first two capsule be taken from the goldfish at Washington. The first numbers also were for Anaheim men who are in district 174.

The men in the former district inthe order their numbers drawn, are Everett Earl D Route 1, box 13, and Victor Rodriguez, 1014 Kemp street, two in the other district are Joseph Longobardi, Route 3496-c, and W. Frank Ruble, East Wilhelmina street.
The questionnaire will provide information of the registrar physical, domestic, economic occupational qualifications, which the board will classify man as available for immediate duty and issue an order number or will recommend deferment a period not to exceed six months.
Order Number Uncertain
Chairman Sheridan pointed yesterday that sequence in v serial numbers were drawn T day does not mean that each on having the same serial num will have the same order num Anaheim, for instance, has men registered, while num above 8000 were drawn Tue Any serial number above will be eliminated, which m that Earl Ralph Bygum of South Ohio street, whose num was drawn 19th, will probably given order number three That procedure will be continued until order numbers have assigned to each person register in the district.

Many Automobile Thefts Reported
Police Chief James S. Bouldin today issued a warning to all auto-mobile owners to lock their cars when parking them, either at home or in the business district. The warning came as the result of activities of thieves, whom Bouldin believes are juveniles.
Several automobiles have been stolen during the past week, and most of them were recovered within a few hours only a comparatively short distance away from the place they were stolen. Usually, something had been removed from the car, and occasionally they had been well striped.
Victims of the thefts were George Graham, 938 North Palm street, J. H. DeuPree, 924 North Zeyn street; R. J. Smith, 317 East Mills drive; Harry Miller, 314 Melrose street, James Farwell, 220 North Claudina street and David Marsh, 205 North Lemon street.

Capistrano Crash Takes Five Lives
Sixth Person Seriously Hurt in Worst Accident in County History
One of the worst automobile accidents in Orange county's history took the lives of five persons and critically injured a sixth Sunday afternoon on Highway 101, about four miles north of San Juan Capistrano, according to California highway patrol reports.
Party lines are down for this election, with everyone privileged to vote as they choose regardless of the party affiliation of the candidate.

Sample ballots, together with a booklet containing the proposed amendments to the state constitution, propositions and proposed laws, were received in Anaheim early this week.

Sixth Person Seriously Hurt in Worst Accident in County History
One of the worst automobile accidents in Orange county's history took the lives of five persons and critically injured a sixth Sunday afternoon on Highway 101, about four miles north of San Juan Capistrano, according to California highway patrol reports.
Listed as dead as the result of the crash are Samuel Hossman, 51, of 1181 D street, Chino, driver of one of the cars; his son, Samuel, Jr., 18, of the same address; Mrs. Ruth Mervin, 56, of 1026 Ninth street, Alhambra; Mrs. Isa M. Wascher, 55, of 4307 First avenue N. E., Seattle, Wash., and her daughter, Miss Catheryn Wascher, 35, of Rampart boulevard, Los Angeles.
Driver Seriously Hurt
Claude Mervin, 56, husband of one of the dead women, was reported to have been the driver of the second car, and he was the only survivor of the crash.
Last rites were administered to three of the victims before they succumbed by Father Arthur Hutchinson, resident priest of the San Juan Capistrano mission, officers reported.
Investigating patrolmen said the cars sideswiped with terrific force on the wide highway, apparently as one of the drivers was attempting to pass another car.
Mervin was taken to St. Joseph hospital in Orange, while the bodies of his wife, Mrs. Wascher and Samuel Hossman were taken to the Brown and Wagner funeral home in Santa Ana. The bodies of the younger Hossman and Miss Wascher were taken to the Divel mortuary in San Clemente.

Anaheim residents join with the rest of the county in naming a state senator, and the remainder of the 19th congressional district in selecting a representative in congress.
Five parties have qualified for the presidential election in California, although the contest is only between President Franklin D. Roosevelt, the Democratic candidate, and Wendell L. Willkie, the Republican standard bearers. Vice-presidential candidates are Henry A. Wallace and Charles L. McNary, respectively.
Hiram W. Johnson is virtually certain of re-election as United States senator, although the names of Fred Dyster, Prohibition, and Anita Whitney, Communist, also appear upon the ballot.
In the race for congressman, Lotus H. Louden, Anaheim Republican, is seeking to replace Harry R. Sheppard of Ukiah, incumbent Democrat.
The legislative portion of the ballot is devoted to election of a state senator and assemblyman from the 75th district. Assemblyman Thomas H. Kuchel, Republican and Democrat, is virtually assured of election, although the Townsend candidate, Levi C. Carlisle, is also on the ballot. In the assembly race, Republican Sam L. Collins of Fullerton, Democrat Timothy F. Shea of Anaheim, and Townsendite George Varnum of La Habra are the contestants.
The judicial elections determine whether or not the four judges will be returned to office. Those involved are Chief Justice Phil S. Gibson and Associate Justices Jesse W. Carter, Roger J. Traynor and Lloyd E. Griffin.
Harry D. Riley, incumbent, and James A. Baker, both of Anaheim, are contesting for the position of third district supervisor.
