Anaheim Aluminum Drive Is On; Many Take Part City-Wide Response Forecast As Many Express Intention of Giving Strong Support to Move; Details Incomplete Anaheim’s campaign to collect aluminum for national defense aid got underway Monday, with a large number of the home town folks giving their efforts toward amassing as big a collection of discarded pots, pans, dishes and other utensils that have been thrown aside as out of date or no longer usable. Some donators even parted with treasured pieces, rather than not take part in the movement. Inducive features of the drive will be: Free use of the city plunge to children who pay admission with an article of aluminum; admission to a Fox theater matinee for children payable with a utensil of the needed metal. Other features of the drive will be worked out and announced during the week. Mrs. L. H. Loudon has volunteered for the task of contacting heads of various organizations interested in national defense, for the purpose of having them stimulate activities of committees in phoning all members who have phones in their homes requesting their cooperation in the drive. Throughout the week a truck will be stationed on North Los Angeles street, between Center and Chartres, in which may be deposited all donations. More than likely a truck canvass will be made throughout the city during the week-end, with members of the American Legion, Boy Scouts and organizations assisting. County Chambers To Hold Meeting Tuesday Evening Many New Problems Will Be Discussed; Campbell, Speaker The Associated Chambers of Commerce fo Orange county, following its annual custom, will gather at the Gulliaums Los Alamitos sanitarium Tuesday evening, July 29, at 6:30, for the purpose of joint review of needs in the various communities. Orange county is at the present time facing many new problems, such as housing, traffic safety, industrial expansion, promotions, and the possible invasion of army camps. For clarity of purpose the association has called upon D. W. Campbell, manager of the San Diego California club, whose headquarters are in the chamber of commerce at San Diego, to give Orange county members a word of Anaheim Personalities Cris Mazza Cris Mazza is the name, Anaheim Fish Market is the business; Anaheim is his choice of a place in which to live. Such, briefly, is the person introduced today to residents of Anaheim and environs. Cris, for such we will call him, was born April 9, 1893, at Naples, Italy, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Mazza. Passing through the trials and tribulations of early school years he became a student at Dante Alighieri high school, Naples. Following his graduation from this institution he remained a few years in his native land, later migrating to America, landing in New York city. On July 26, 1919, he married Anna Capri, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Vincent Capri, former residents of Sorrento, Italy, the ceremony taking place in New York city. Two sons and three daughters have blessed their union. Ralph, the eldest, now in his second marriage. Rural Route Men Are Stamp Agents Defense Saving Stamps May Be Applied For Through Carriers Throughout the United States 32,000 rural mail carriers are now acting as agents in the sale of defense saving stamps, postal officials recently so advised the treasury department. Demand for the stamps in sparsely settled districts caused the post office department to authorize rural carriers to act as salesmen. The stamps range in value from ten cents to five dollars, with purchasers being given albums in which they can be mounted. When filled, the albums may be exchanged for defense savings bonds. Those who live in rural sections of Anaheim and desire purchasing stamps in any denomination may do so by making their wants known to their rural mailman, who will see that the order is filled. There has been quite a brisk demand in this locality for this moderate means of investment, it was revealed on inquiry at the Anaheim postoffice. Anaheim Pioneer Forcing Sampson to open the cash register and hand them the contents they also relieved him from the contents of his wallet. Placing the money in a paper bag then hurriedly departed. Descriptions furnished by Sampson were as follows: One 22 to 23 years of age; 5 feet 1 inches tall, weight about 14 pounds; wore a blue yachting cape; blue jeans; light complexion. The second was about the same age and height, weighed about 180 pounds; dark complexion; wore dark uniformed pants and grey mixed coat. Legal Protection Given Draftees State Bar Assures All Equities Service Be Given Without Charge Through Lloyd Wright, president of the State Bar of California announcement has been made that organization would give legal protection to young Californians whose numbers were drawn in the Washington select service lottery, in-so-far as the equities in autos, homes, life insurance and other properties pattained. In a summary covering various items affected by the bars' decision, the following are a few highlights: Car contracts or other articles entered into before October 1940, cannot be seized for definite payments, but can be taken only after court action: If draftee had paid 50 percent or more of the purchase price of car, he has many substantive rights: If he can prove that ability to pay has been materially reduced because of military service, the court may postpone entry of any judgment against him for the full period of military service and for three months afterward. Insurance policies up to a value of $5,000 are kept in force except in case of contracts which specifically exclude men in military service. On all other policy premiums becoming delinquent while he is in service will become a charge against the face value of the policy and cannot be cancelled for non-payment of premiums. These provisions apply to policies taken out at least 30 days before publication. Following his graduation from this institution he remained a few years in his native land, later migrating to America, landing in New York city. On July 26, 1919, he married Anna Capri, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Vincent Capri, former residents of Sorrento, Italy, the ceremony taking place in New York city. Two sons and three daughters have blessed their union. Ralph, the eldest, now in his second year at Berkeley, was born in 1920. The others, in order of birth are: Tina, Marie, Vincent and Lucy, the latter now approaching her eighth year in age. Cris for the last seven years has resided in California, coming to Anaheim some three years ago, his choice of residence being determined by the clean appearance of the city and because it was the size community to which he was accustomed. His business premises are comparatively small but the volume of patronage is such that it requires the services of two employees to handle it. His venture is somewhat different from others in Anaheim because it is the only exclusive fish market in the city, with daily deliveries of the best in seasonable varieties directly from the ocean and sold as reasonable as any place in Southern California. It may be said that he carries the widest variety of sea products in Northern Orange county. Additional to his piscatorial wares he specializes in needed condiments; such as N.B.C. crackermeal; Soose-Wiles "Fry Meal" and the well-known Gardner line of tartar sauce, horse radish and tabasco pepper. For relaxation he has a hobby—stamp collecting, of which he has assembled stamps from all over the world, his collection being valued at several thousand dollars.

Of equal interest to residents of Anaheim is the saving that will be effected on the meter readings between August and October, the Anaheim city council having adopted a recent resolution that grants local users of this system a flat one dollar-a-month rate on their meters, regardless of quantity used, representing a good saving on the household budget. It probably will be a few days before the full quality of the water will be obtained, due to the newness of mains and conduit from which the local supply will come.

All sugar beet producers of the county have been asked to be present and express their views concerning the beet program in order that the region may receive the greatest possible return from their crops. The past few years have found Orange county producers having difficulty in adjusting their acreage in accordance with the AAA program and maintaining a sufficient acreage to warrant the operation of a sugar mill. The heavy rains of last winter helped to cut the local production for 1941 and growers hope to have some assurance that will permit reasonable plantings for 1942, so the farm bureau reports. Close cooperation between growers and processors in maintaining the local production plant will be the sugar beet department of the bureau. Shipping facilities and defense conditions are expected to affect the domestic sugar program considerably and growers are seeking as much information as possible upon the outlook for 1942, covering production and prices.
