VOLUME LXXI Children Mourn Loss of Canary In School Fire Faulty Heater Vent Responsible for Blaze at Horace Mann Tradition says that youngsters are delighted when their school-house burns down, but kindergarten children of Horace Mann school shattered that tradition. They were not happy about the fire which extensively damaged their school room because the blaze took the life of their pet canary. The youngsters also lamented the fact that their large, six-foot model airplane which they were building was destroyed, as were the building blocks which serve all the kindergartens of the city and were, by chance, at the Horace Mann school last Friday morning. Further cause of grief was the death of their pet goldfish which they enjoyed watching from day to day. FIRE SPREAD RAPIDLY The fire which damaged the south wing of the building broke out shortly after 8 a.m. It was discovered by a passerby, who... "FANNY," 22-year-old dog owned by M. J. Delaney is shown above with her master. She is believed to be the oldest dog in Orange county. Photo by Kenneth P. Warren. Airport District To Be Discussed Northern Orange County Business and Civic Leaders Meet Tonight Sentiment among business and civic leaders from all northern Orange county in regard to establishment of a large airport to serve the entire district will be ascertained tonight at a banquet to be held at the Anaheim Elks clubhouse at 7 p.m. Chamber of Commerce officials and others interested in this movement have been invited from Fulerton, Buena Park, Stanton, Cypress and Anaheim. The work that has quietly been going on here for the past several weeks on the project has advanced plans sufficiently to warrant presentation at such a meeting as tonight's, according to G. Ted Masterson, chairman of the airport committee for the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce. AIRPORT DISTRICT Principal business to come before the meeting tonight will be a discussion of the proposed plan of forming an airport district. Such a district, if formed, would function in a manner similar to a high school or junior college district. A board of five persons would have authority to lease, buy, or accept gifts of land to be used for an airport. A tract of land could be leased on a rental purchase plan if the district did not desire to vote bonds for the outright purchase of property, Masterson pointed out. Santa Ana has called a bond issue election for the purpose of acquiring land west of that city upon which to establish a large municipal airport. The county has announced plans to acquire a tract of land near Costa Mesa for the establishment of an army training school for pilots, the committee said. AIR EXPRESS BASE Advocates of a large airport in the north end of the county declare that completion of Manchester freeway will make this area the logical place for the establishment of an air express and freight ter- "Fanny" Thought To Be Oldest Dog In County Until someone comes along to prove differently, Anaheim can claim the record of being the home of the oldest dog in Orange county, and perhaps in all of California. Eldest of all the canines of Orange county is "Fannie," 22-year-old thoroughbred fox terrier owned by M. J. Delaney of Commercial St. Delaney, who is approching 82 years of age, vouches for his pet's age, declaring that she was born at Yuma, Ariz., on November 28, 1918, and that he has owned her throughout her life. Men who know dogs say that one year in a dog's life is equavailent to approximately seven years in the life of a man. Based upon that theory, "Fannie" would be 154 years old if she were a human being. "Fannie" has seen more of the United Stataes than most human beings and can probably claim the distinction of being one of the most widely-traveled dogs in the nation. Delaney says she has been in almost every state of the union, but for the past four years she has resided in Anaheim. The aged canine is much like the human female in that she doesn't like to be considered old. Despite the fact that her vision and hearing aren't what they used to be, she still is quite active and is an exceptional watchdog, her master declares. Delaney was greatly pleased when the Gazette reporter and photographer called on him. He commented that he never had a picture taken of "Fannie," and that he wanted something to remember his pet by after she dies. Bert L. Kuebler Called by Death Bert L. Kuebler, 56, of 1108 E. Broadway, died this morning at his home where he had resided for the past 51 years. Funeral services will be conducted at 2 AIR EXPRESS BASE Advocates of a large airport in the north end of the county declare that completion of Manchester freeway will make this area the logical place for the establishment of an air express and freight terminal for Los Angeles. Such a terminal, they pointed out, would mean the permanent location of many industries that would be necessary to maintain and replace units used in such a service, which would mean permanent payrolls and benefits to northern Orange county. Persons close to the aircraft industry declare the industry is receiving from the present war boom the impetus necessary for establishment of extensive air express and freight carrying lines. They point out that the last war provided the cmpetus for passenger traffic. Railroads Crossing Improvements Made Santa Fe Railway company this week has been improving and repaving several major street crossings on their line. Broadway and Center street have been repaved, and a new oil cake coating has been placed at Sycamore street. Bert L. Kuebler Called by Death Bert L. Kuebler, 56, of 1108 E. Broadway, died this morning at his home where he had resided for the past 51 years. Funeral services will be conducted at 2 p.m. Saturday from the chapel of Backs, Campbell & Kaulbars. The Elks lodge will be charge of the graveside services. Kuebler was born in Holt county, Nebr., but came to Anaheim as a small boy. He is survived by his wife, Clare; one son, Chester L.; one grandchild, and a brother, Claude Kuebler of San Ysidro. He was a member of the Anaheim lodge of Elks. Charles F. Sly Appeals Conviction His plea for a new trial denied by City Judge Frank Tausch, verbal notice of appeal was filed by Charles F. Sly of Buena Park Monday morning. Sly was convicted by a jury in city court about two weeks ago on a charge of driving while drunk. Notice of appeal, filed through Sly's attorney, came after Judge Tausch had pronounced sentence of a fine of $150, or a jail term of 75 days. Sly renewed a bail bond for $250 and was released pending hearing in superior court on his appeal. Vance Golden Takes Part in Production Vance H. Gooden, RFD 1, box 124, gave a excellent performance in the production, "Land's End" given in the Touchstone theatre of the Uuiversity of Southern California, Friday evening. Zoning Ordinance Variance Approved Introduction of an ordinance granting a variance in the zoning ordinance to Mrs. Margaret Buttree for construction of a new residence and music studio at the corner of Sycamore and Palm streets was made at Tuesday's meeting of the city council. Mayor Charles A. Pearson also issued a proclamation setting aside the week of March 21 to 27 as "Greek Relief Week." Permission was granted the Izaak Walton league chapter to use La Palma park for its outdoor show and casting tournament on April 6. Paul Wilson Home Damaged by Fire Damage to the structure and furniture estimated at $1400 was done by fire last Saturday night at the Paul Wilson home, Q11 N. Paulina St. The residence was part of a duplex owned by Mrs. Effie Elliott, who lives in the adjoining dwelling at 309 N. Paulina St. The blaze started from a gas heater, Fire Chief R. Nyboe reported. The fire spread rapidly and the dwelling was completely gutted. Furniture in Mrs. Elliott's home was removed by neighbors and firemen.

Ravenscof, secretary-treasurer; T. H. Jones and five John Does in a suit filed in Orange county superior court. The action was filed as the result of action allegedly taken by the union in fining Hertzberg $500 and suspending him from the union for six months, on the grounds that Hertzberg had committed a serious offense against the union by protesting the payment of dues on one occasion. The plaintiff set forth in his complaint that he had offered to withdraw his protest after the question he had raised about his dues had been answered, but that he was penalized by the union nevertheless. Full Cooperation Vital in War, Merchants Told Nation in Conflict to Preserve Democratic Economic System Whole hearted cooperation and effort on the part of both labor and industry is vital if the United States is to carry through to a successful conclusion its program of national defense and supplying of war materials to Great Britain, declared Martyn L. Agens, sales manager for Imperial Mutual Life Insurance company, in his talk to members of -the Anahgim Merchants association this morning at the Marigold cafe. Neither labor nor business has fulfilled their obligations to date, the speaker indicated, pointing to the steadily increased number of strikes and the failure to give wide distribution to manufacturing orders as authorities for his contention. Cooperation must be given by choice or it will be forced upon both labor and business by the government, he said, adding, "What is the use of fighting a war to preserve our democratic processes if we lose those processes in the struggle?" Voluntary coopera- Athletics Take Four From Cubs Macks Close Exhibition Schedule Here With Two Games Next Week The Athletics lost their second game of the spring season yesterday when they bowed, 4 to 0, to the Pittsburgh Pirates at Gilmore stadium, Hollywood. Connie Mack's Philadelphia Athletics this week took a page from the Yankee's book by trouncing the Chicago Cubs in four straight baseball encounters, tipping off the series with an 11 to 9 victory at La Palma park stadium Tuesday afternoon. The first three games of the series were played at Wrigley Field, Los Angeles, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. A crowd of close to 3000 persons nearly filled La Palma stadium Tuesday to watch the Macks build up an early lead and then hang on to it in the face of a determined Cub rally. Manager Mack rotated Buck Ross, Lester McCrabb and Rankin Johnson on the mound, and Ross, the starter, received credit for the victory. The Athletics enjoyed a 7 to 1 lead when Johnson took over mound duties at the start of the seventh inning. The young right-hander ran into a peck of trouble, giving up four runs in the seventh and another pair in the ninth. One of the tallies was a home run off the bat of Bill Nicholson, which sailed over the right field fence at the 394-foot marker. The large crowd was treated to four homers during the afternoon, with the Athletics accounting for three of them. Bob Johnson rifled a drive over the left field wall while Al Brancato and Sam Chapman got theirs on smashes that rolled to the fence in deep centerfield, 440 feet from home plate. Bob Kahle, playing at third base, had a perfect day at bat with four straight hits, while the Cubs got Brancato out only once in four attempts.

GAZETTE CALIFORNIA STATE LIBRARY NIA, THURSDAY, MARCH 20, 1941 NUMBER 22 Carbon Canyon Flood Control Project It Likely To Be Completed Next Year Army Engineer Says Funds Unavailable Now That Anaheim and other northern Orange county sectors will probably be unprotected from Carbon canyon storm runoffs next winter was indicated yesterday at a conference between a group of northern Orange county civic leaders and Lt. Col. E. C. Kelton, district engineer for the U.S. army engineering corps, in Los Angeles. Several factors make for delay in constructing the protective works in the canyon, it was said. Lack of congressional appropriation for the project is the biggest barrier standing in the way of immediate work. Need for the protection must be shown to congress in order to obtain the allotment, but before that can be done a change must be made in the general flood control project's order of preference. SAN JUAN FIRST At the present time, flood control work in San Juan region in Indoor Show dated April 6 Izaak Walton League, Merchants Association Sponsor Event April 6 has been set aside as day for Anaheim sportsmen towers of the outdoors, for on-day the Izaak Walton league Merchants association are sponsoring a casting configiment of outdoor equipment. The event will be held at La Palma park. Merchants and residents of Palm are entitled to see what Caltonians are doing, and this is one of the best ways we accomplish this," Joe Van Neller, president of the Izaak Walton chapter said today in aning the event. "Because of magnitude of the show we have the cooperation of the Merchants association in sponsor-able various exhibits." Series Sellers and Elmore, while H. E. W. Barnes is large of the exhibits for out-of-furniture and equipment. This is directing the local assis-tion of the event, while Finch is leading the casting tournament prophies. The casting contest is open only Caltonians and their wives, and notions have been sent to all Calton chapters in southern California to send participants. Con- will be held in dry fly and unique Display Pays Respects To Baseball Club Newspapermen have written virtually reams of copy about the Philadelphia Athletics, who are training at La Palma park stadium, but to Bob Quast belongs the honor of paying tribute to them in the most unique manner. Quast, a young baseball enthusiast who is also something of an artist, made use of his imagination and the spacious new show window at the R. Joe Quast plumbing shop on East Center St. to lay out a baseball diamond and place players upon it. That sounds like an ordinary sort of thing, but the uniqueness of the display lies in the fact that the players are made up of iron pipe, joints, elbows and other plumbing materials. Bases are sink stoppers, while home plate is a small, flat soap container. The catcher is well equipped with mask and body protector and the left-handed pitcher is about ready to deliver a “ball” made of a rubber plunger. The batter is set for the pitch with a pipe bat in his hand. The infielders and outfielders are all in their proper positions, and each has assumed a different posture. The players are on a large green field, with base paths marked distinctly. At the top of the show window is a banner reading, “Meet the Athletics.” Lack of congressional appropriation for the project is the biggest barrier standing in the way of immediate work. Need for the protection must be shown to congress in order to obtain the allotment, but before that can be done a change must be made in the general flood control project's order of preference. SAN JUAN FIRST At the present time, flood control work in San Juan region in the south part of the county is next on the list, followed by the Carbon canyon job. This order must be reversed to enable an appropriation in the immediate future for the project affecting Anaheim. It is believed that matter can be solved without much difficulty. When congress does moke the appropriation, army engineers will begin their investigations to determined what type of protective work will best meet the requirements and then draw up their plans of operation. It appears possible that the preliminary work might start sometime this summer, but the project undoubtedly cannot be completed before winter. FUND AVAILABLE Failure of congress to make an appropriation would not be necessarily mean the project could not proceed, Col. Kelton said President Roosevelt has a fund of $150,000,-000 for public defense measures which could be a source of revenue for Orange county job if need can be shown. City Engineer E. P. Hapgood, school district officials and county officials are to report on the damage done by Carbon canyon run-off waters to the Orange County Flood Control district, which will then proceed with efforts to secure the congressional allotment. Urgency of the Carbon canyon protective works was shown here last Friday afternoon and night when the entire north end of Anaheim was subjected to extremely high water as the result of a heavy strom which occurred here during the afternoon. Mexican families north of Los Angeles and La Palma streets were evacuated, and several other families living north of North street also left their homes temporarily. Traffic was halted on Plam and La Palma streets in the vicinity of the park, and other streets gave the appearance of rivers as the waters rushed through toward the west. while H. E. W. Barnes is large of the exhibits for outdoor furniture and equipment. This is directing the local assemblage of the event, while Finch is casting the casting tournament trophies. The casting contest is open only to Caltonians and their wives, andations have been sent to all chapters in southern California to send participants. Connie will be held in dry fly and weights plug casting, with Dick R. a world's champion caster, and judge of the event. Anaheim business houses will their exhibits open during the evening hours, and a barbecue feast will be on sale at the banks. Boy Scouts of the city police the show and clean up grounds, in return for which they receive 10 percent of uncleon receipts. Sellers said the public address system will be called by Harry R. Fox to keep audience informed as to what being on at all times. President O. E. Hanson of the emhants association this morning appointed Mrs. Jack Corn and the Griggs to work under ties as representatives of the business group. Beckler's Market burglarized Tuesday first burglary in several months fronted Anaheim police this week, although surrounding cities reported a number of similar cases during the past few weeks. From here was the Beckler marathon at 721 S. Los Angeles St., which was broken into Tuesday night and burglarized of about $10 million in small change. Investigating officers said entry into the building was gained by pry-off a lock on an outside door. Inside door was also forced; access to the main store room and the cash register. Mrs. J. P. Brastad Wins 20th Award Mrs. J. P. Brastad has just won her twentieth contest for writing 25 words or less to finish a statement.
