Red Cross officials intend to keep the three registration places in operation for at least a month more, it was learned, and invited cooperation of Anaheim citizens who have not already signed up. "To all who have taken out membership, the heart-felt thanks of the Red Cross," Mrs. Truxaw said.

Center st." Membership figures for the drive released yesterday, with only today's results to be tabulated, showed a total of 950 enrolled so far this year, compared to a 1,336 membership last year and a goal set by National Red Cross headquarters for this district of 3,000.

Paint on the morning and evening procession of Army vehicles through Anaheim's Center street Saturday, taking an estimated 7.500 men to and from the UCLA-Camp Haan football game in Los Angeles, was the latest thing in lustreless finish. Relatively rough olive drab paint did the trick, reflecting a minimum of light and making it difficult to see a truck from the air or any distance on land. Army trucks, too, no longer Ana at the next regular meeting of the organization and plan the best course of action for any emergency.
