High School District Establishes New Accumulative Building Fund To Anticipate Future Needs In preparation for future building programs in Anaheim Union High school district, the board of trustees at its monthly meeting Monday night at the school established an accumulative building fund for which a specified sum will be set aside annually for the next five years. Under direction of A. C. Riuteel, president of the board, members decided upon the sum of $20,000 as this year's requirement, with $10,000 to be added each successive year. This fund will obviate the necessity of future school bond issues when the interrupted building program is resumed, according to Paul H. Demaree, high school principal. ADOPT BUDGET Adoption of the annual budget was chief in interest during the business session, and the sum of $290,000 determined upon. Because the building program has been curtailed, the trustees have available the sum of $58,000, which with other funds on hand, will make it necessary to raise only $127,928 by taxation. The district also receives certain monies from the state for average daily attendance. In 1941 this average was 1,053 including night school classes. Principal Demaree today expressed the belief that C. C. Head Names Many Committees For Year’s Work Since his acceptance of the responsibilities of presidency of Anaheim Chamber of Commerce, Albert C. Riutcel has devoted much time and thought to formation of committees to function among Chamber members during the current year.

J Ben Kaulbars heads the Parking and Public Improvements group consisting of Ted Masterson, Ray Reafsnyder and J. E. Schumacher. Membership committee is the largest and includes Robert H. Boney, junior past C. C. president; Joseph Sowder, O. E. Hanson, Harry C. Arthur, Everett Cone and Oscar W. Heying. Associated with Paul H. Demaire on the Recreation committee will be M. A. Gauer and Allen F. DeWitt. Building and Housing committee will be composed of Frank Gibbs, August Schumacher and Rudolph Nyboe. Delegates to Associations will comprise Stephen Gallagher, G. Millard Parks and Secretary John M. Johnston. New Dimout Order Places Ban On Coastal Lighting With Gen. John L. DeWitt, commanding general of the Fourth Army and of the Western Defense Command, pressing the button, the entire Pacific coast will be virtually plunged into darkness beginning August 20, as a necessary defense measure under present war conditions. The edict, as issued Wednesday, will affect California areas as far as 150 miles inland. This will include Orange, Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Riverside and San Diego counties among others of the coastal area. Enforcement will be in the hands of the Civilian Defense Council of the state. Locally it will be administered by Anaheim Civilian Defense Council of which are some of the E.A. Silzie Corps, who assenl led at the park 12 planned by Mr. and Mrs. Earl Silz Rotary Guest Tells Of Labor Problems Labor relation problems in the Los Angeles district were discussed by Mrs. Edwin Selvin of Los Angeles, chairman of Women of the Pacific, speaker at the regular meeting of Anaheim Rotary club Rotary Guest Tells Of Labor Problems Labor relation problems in the Los Angeles district were discussed by Mrs. Edwin Selvin of Los Angeles, chairman of Women of the Pacific, speaker at the regular meeting of Anaheim Rotary club Monday noon at Elks clubhouse.

Women Volunteers Asked to Work in Salvage Campaign Good Afternoon, Madam Anaheim! Have you got a few hours a week to spare for your Uncle Sam? If you have, and if you are truly appreciative of all that he does for you, wouldn't you be willing to help him a bit in return? You see it's this way. Call has come for all those bits of scrap metal, those old salad dressing and coffee jars, that porch rug that you were going to put in the trash collection. Uncle Sam needs all these things in his war efforts. Bless your heart, Madam he doesn't want you to play trash collector, and go out and gather them up! No indeed! What he does want you to do, is merely contact your neighborhood friends, and ask them to save such articles ready for the city to collect. If you'll do this, telephone A. L. Raymond, 2248—or drop him a card! Your help is needed! The edict, as issued Wednesday, will affect California areas as far as 150 miles inland. This will include Orange, Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Riverside and San Diego counties among others of the coastal area. Enforcement will be in the hands of the Civilian Defense Council of the state. Locally it will be administered by Anaheim Civilian Defense Council of which Charles E. Mann is executive chairman. Chairman Mann today declared that he had no further instructions than those generally announced, but that Anaheim would cooperate in its usual thorough manner. Reasons for the dimout orders, he explained, were to make it impossible for the lurking enemy to see American vessels in silhouette against the glow offered by lighted coastal cities. Coming under the newly established ban will be night ball games, theater marquees and brilliantly lighted signs. General DeWitt declared that bright sky reflections from cities as far inland as Sacramento and Fresno were equally dangerous with those of such metropolitan districts as Los Angeles and San Francisco, as offering target to the enemy. Bicycle Rations All Used in July How many Anaheimers will receive requested bicycles in August? That is the question that is exciting curiosity among cyclists at present. July's quota of ten bicycles permitted the rationing board, was exhausted by the issuing of the ten necessary certificates, according to Mrs. Hettie Hurlburt, secretary of the board. Classes will be held from 8 a.m. until 12 o'clock noon from Monday to Friday each week for the next six weeks. Courses are planned for students who wish to hasten their college graduation, and for adults who wish to prepare for jobs in defense industries. There will be classes in psychology, history, chemistry, physics, mathematics, biology, typing, shorthand, English, French and Spanish. For the benefit of those wishing to prepare themselves for defense work will be classes in sheet metal, machine shop, marine electricity, shipfitting and welding. These are National Defense classes, sponsored by the Federal Government. They are open to men and women 18 years and older, who have proof of citizenship. Application for any of these classes may be made at the office of adult education. Missionary Speaks To Kiwanis Club Returned missionary from the Belgion Congo, Rev.
