If You Buy Bonds You are Buying Victory! ANAHEIM The Oldest M VOLUME LXXIII ANAHEIM, OR Next Week Will Bring First Event Of Orange County Concert Series Just a week from tonight will come the long anticipated opening event of the Orange County Concert series with the dance recital featuring Veloz and Yolanda, to be presented in Santa Ana high school auditorium. Anaheim music lovers have always been steady patrons of the concert series, which is staged annually under auspices of Musical Arts association, a county-wide organization. Mrs. Margaret Buttree, 427 North Palm street, is junior past president of the club. The program committee's choice of Veloz and Yolanda to open the current season, has been acclaimed by everyone who has ever seen this "Miracle pair of the entertainment world." California real- (Continued on page 5) Farm Bureau Takes Interest Out Of Thanksgiving Plans With Thanksgiving month just around the corner, and us with our appetites all honed up like Grandfather's razor, here comes a message from Orange County Farm bureau with the dismal information offered by Ross Crane of the agricultural extension service, that California's turkey crop is 11 per cent below that of last year. That doesn't seem fair. Maybe cur turkey is in that minus 11 per cent group! If the agricultural extension service is all that it should be, surely Ross Crane can extend it a little further and let us all have our usual Thanksgiving dinners! Let's do something about it. We don't know exactly what, but maybe Mr. Crane does. He offers a small ray of light—to the growers. He promises that they'll get 35 per cent higher prices than last year. That doesn't help us. Toastmasters Will Elect Officers at Tuesday's Meeting Next Tuesday night when Anaheim Toastmasters club holds its All Purpose Ration Books Are Now In Printer's Hands Anaheim residents are beginning to wonder how soon they will be in receipt of the government's first "all-purpose" rationing books, designed to provide a swift means Men Are Named For Rationing Toastmasters Will Elect Officers at Tuesday’s Meeting Next Tuesday night when Anaheim Toastmasters club holds its regular meeting, members will vote on officers for the coming year from a list of delegates selected by Earl Smith, Charles Greenwood and P. H. Pendleton, nominating committee. Nominees selected by the committee include Paul Blocher, president; LeRoy Ater, vice-president; Roy C. Marten secretary M. E. Beebe, sergeant-at-arms, and P. H. Pendleton, duty-governor. Blocher, who is principal of Katella school, will succeed Leonard Schwacofer in the club presidency. An important event on the club’s autumn calendar is scheduled for Tuesday night, October 27. For the annual ladies’ night will be held in connection with installation of officers. Dr. C. O. Patterson was named to head a committee composed of Frank Kellogg and Dr. Max Henderson, to make arrangements for the event. Paul H. Demaree will be the installing officer. Leonard Schwacofer presided over the latest Toastmasters session. The table topic for general discussion was “What Should a Man of Draft Age Do?” and impromptu talks all had to do with the war situation. On the regular speaking program, Dr. C. O. Patterson talked on “What You See, You Get;” Charles Greenwood discussed “Possibilities of Natural Gas Rationing,” and Paul Blocher with “Boom Town” as his theme, told of experiences while working on construction jobs for government projects in small communities affected by influx of such workers. Vacation’s Over And Young People Return To Books Vacation days, longest in Anaheim high school history, are over All Purpose Ration Books Are Now In Printer’s Hands Anaheim residents are beginning to wonder how soon they will be in receipt of the government’s first “all-purpose” rationing books, designed to provide a swift means of rationing any article or commodity almost at the instant that the danger of a critical shortage appears. The books are now in the hands of the government printers and will soon be ready for general distribution. This particular ration book is the first of four of the same general type needed for complete flexibility in rationing plans. It has been described as containing 192 coupons on eight pages each in separate color, and each coupon separately designated by number and letter. The design makes possible the use of the book for straight rationing as is now used for sugar, or use of the point system whereby the consumer may “spend” his ration on various grades and kinds of a general type of commodity. The book is adequate for rationing of at least two major groups of commodities for a minimum of six months. Calvary Baptists Complete First Building Project Last Sunday night’s services in Calvary Baptist church, were the most important of the Rev. Earl R. Berg’s pastorate. For after the stirring address delivered by Ralph A. Jensen, executive secretary of Southern California Baptist State convention, the large audience was privileged to witness note-burning ceremonies celebrating the retirement of all church indebtedness. On the previous Sunday, the congregation produced the final $100 which the church treasury needed to discharge its debts. The mortgage has been held by Anaheim Building and Loan association and payment of this final sum enabled the church to stage its special ceremonies Sunday night. Men Are Named For Rationing Farm Supplies Following last week’s announcement of Orange County War Board, that a committee of county agriculturists would be appointed to handle the new farm machinery rationing program instituted by the government, that committee has been named. It comprises E. T. McFadden, Santa Ana; H. L. Wakeham, Tustin, and Walter Schmid, Garden Grove. Three alternates were named also, E. E. Campbell, Orange; Frank Borchard, Santa Ana, and Harvey Bear, Greenville. The new committee will have its headquarters at 622 North Main street, Santa Ana, the same as those of the War Board. It will meet weekly to review and consider applications for farm machinery under the critical equipment classification. This machinery is included in Group A of the September 17 freezing order, and includes beef lofters and loaders, disc harrows, feed grinders, fertilizer spreaders, grain drills and elevators, hay balers, milk coolers, milking machines, all types of tractors, and similar large farm equipment. October 31 is the final date for ordering any article in Group A and such articles are released only upon authority of the new county rationing committee. Intermediate Group B machinery is still available and may be obtained from dealers upon the farmer’s own certification that it is essential to his current needs. There are no restrictions at present on Group C machinery which includes hoes, rakes, forks, shovels, etc., and horse-drawn farm machinery not listed in Group A. Warren-for-Gov. Headquarters Open Anaheim activities of the Warren-For-Governor Non Partisan committee, will be headed by Vacation’s Over And Young People Return To Books Vacation days, longest in Anaheim high school history, are over and students are stepping back into school routine with enthusiasm, today declared Principal Paul H. Demaree. High school registration, completed last week, resulted in an enrollment of 927 students, just below the figure of the opening registration a year ago. However a number of students are remaining on agricultural jobs until the season’s close, explained Principal Demaree, and their later return to school will help bring up the average. Grade schools are in routine, since their opening was a week in advance of the high school opening. M. A. Gauer, principal of the elementary district, says attendance is normal. Thirteen hundred and more children were enrolled by the end of the first week of school, according to the records. Fremont school, where W. H. Bonney is principal, had the largest enrollment, with 305 pupils. Benjamin Franklin, Miss Ruth Williams, principal, was second high with 262 children. George Washington school, V. O. Elliott, principal, received 195 pupils; Horace Mann, E. F. Mattox, principal, registered 175; Lincoln under principalship of P. S. Doane, and Broadway of which Mrs. Blanche Daniels is principal, were equal in the number of their pupils, 157. La Palma school, Mrs. Fannie Pritchett, principal, enrolled 107 children. On the previous Sunday, the congregation produced the final $100 which the church treasury needed to discharge its debts. The mortgage has been held by Anaheim Building and Loan association and payment of this final sum enabled the church to stage its special ceremonies Sunday night. Assisting the pastor in the note-burning rites were R. J. Grange, chairman of the board of finance and of the building committee; R. J. Dugdale, chairman of the board of deacons; J. F. Jenkins, chairman of the board of trustees; Theodore Siems, building fund treasurer, and Jose L. Guss, church treasurer. Closing the impressive ceremonial was a prayer of thanksgiving and dedication offered by Dr. Birney S. Hudson, former pastor of the church, and candle light communion in observance of World Communion services. The note-burning completed the first of three projects submitted to the congregation a year and a half ago by a building committee composed of R. J. Grange, R. J. Dugdale, Theodore Siems, Dewey Lockman and Ben Boettger. This first project was the purchase of the property at 711 West Broadway, for use as the Calvary Baptist church parsonage. It was purchased from Leona M. Young for $3750. The slogan, "We can do it together," under which church members operated so successfully was suggested by Chairman Grange, and will be applied to the remaining two projects. These will be completed as soon as world conditions permit, and are the building of a new Educational unit and also of a new church edifice at Broadway and Citron St. Warren-for-Gov. Headquarters Open Anaheim activities of the Warren-For-Governor Non Partisan committee, will be headed by Marshall E. Beebe and Edward P. Backs, according to announcements made today by the committee headquarters, newly established for the county at 306 Sycamore street, Santa Ana. A. J. McFadden is chairman of the general committee, and is appointing local chairmen and committees in each section of the county. The official headquarter were established following a mass meeting yesterday of the women of Pro America, whose state boards had previously endorsed both Warren and Houser for election on November 3. Growth of County Shown by Survey A survey of Orange county population just completed by W. D. Johnson, county publicity manager, shows that the figure now stands at 152,926, exclusive of military forces in county camps, an increase of 22,166 over the 1940 census. Johnson's survey was made upon request of county industrial users of sugar who, because of more universal employment, large payrolls and population increases are unable to supply the trade. Since such sugar users are rationed their supply upon the population percentage, the results of the survey are to be presented to the War Rationing board in order to have the sugar ration increased.

Civic Groups Are Allied in Fire Prevention Plans National Fire Prevention Week being observed in California under the proclamation issued by Governor Culbert L. Olson, is being furthered in this city by the Anaheim Safety Council of which M. E. Beebe is president. President Beebe has urged that all residences and places of business be checked for possible fire hazards, and suggested that attics, basements and garages as well as gas and electric connections, be carefully checked. The city fire department under Fire Chief Rudolph Nyboe is offering full cooperation, and will, upon request, send a member of the department to any home or business house to aid in checking. Nyboe has pointed out that the checking will work in admirably with the current salvage campaign, as householders remove possible fire hazards and add results to the collection of salvage articles. Toastmasters club of which Leonard Schwacofer is president, is offering cooperation by furnishing speakers on Fire Prevention programs of city organizations.

Nyboe has pointed out that the checking will work in admirably with the current salvage campaign, as householders remove possible fire hazards and add results to the collection of salvage articles. Toastmasters club of which Leonard Schwacofer is president, is offering cooperation by furnishing speakers on Fire Prevention programs of city organizations. They have been provided with much interesting data compiled by both Beebe and Nyboe. The latter has stated that a fire occurs somewhere in the United States, every twenty seconds, totalling 1,577,000 fires a year, costing this country an average of $800 a minute. Nine out of ten of these fires might have been prevented, he explained. President Beebe's figures show that last year's 685,000 fires in this country resulted in a property loss of over 300 million dollars, and a loss of life in excess of that suffered in the First World War. These are some of the interesting details brought cut at various club meetings of the week by Paul Demaree, speaking before Rotarians; Leonard Schwacofer before Kiwanians, and M. E. Beebe for the Elks. City Council Grants More Room To Selective Serv. Bd. With the constantly increasing call for more men for the selective service, the local Selective Service board needs more room than its present quarters in the city hall. That need will be met very opportunely by the adjoining room which has been occupied by Anaheim Chamber of Commerce, now established in its new quarters at 134 North Los Angeles street. City council approved the use of the room, at its meeting Tuesday night. Other business transacted by the council members included approval of taking out war damage insurance to the sum of $21,-500 and fire insurance amounting to $16,500 on joint outfall sewer properties in this city, Fullerton, Garden Grove, Placentia and Buena Park sanitary district. This city acts as contracting agent for the district. Two lots on North Patt street, which had been taken over by the city and county for delinquent taxes were disposed of to J. M. DR. CHARLES S. PRICE ing next Tuesday in Elks club cafe, where they will be addressed by Dr. Charles S. Price, lecturer and world traveler of international repute. "The Real America" will be the subject upon which Dr. Price will speak, according to announcement made Tuesday when E. M. Cone presided over the weekly session of the club. Dr. Price has had years of experience in platform work as well as world travels which provide a background for his lecture material. During the First World War he was a member of the United States committee on Public Information, and traveled the length of the Pacific coast, speaking at meetings which ranged from great shipyards to city auditoriums. As a member of the famous Ellingson-White Chautauqua (Continued on page 5) CC Directors Meet In New Headquarters Moving day is over, and Anaheim Chamber of Commerce has settled in its commodious new home at 134 North Los Angeles street, after many years in the city hall.

You may have have her!” exclaimed James H. Daugherty as he tooled his old Hupmobile into the city salvage yard on South Claudina street. “She's yours, tires, keys and everything. Maybe she'll round out her life work by pounding away at the Japs!” And that sums up Anaheim's attitude toward the big salvage drive now in progress, according to A. L. Raymond, chairman of Civilian Defense Salvage committee. Raymond is pretty proud of this community’s response, for Anaheim is one of 11 county communities that registered first in citizens’ response to their government’s plea for salvage materials. More than 150 tons of metal have been turned in by the 11 communities, which include with this city, La Habra, Brea, Garden Grove, Olive, Westminster, Costa Mesa, Tustin, San Juan Capistrano Seal Beach and Huntington Beach. This metal is now on its way to the mills for processing, according to Harrison White, chairman of the County Salvage board.

The four major organizations of the new committee are Farm Bureau federation, Pro-America, Orange County Citizens’ association and Associated Farmers of Orange County. They have summarized the issues involved in Proposition 1 by the following statement: “‘Hot Cargo’ and secondary boycott offer a threat against national defense, personal freedom, public health and economic security. “They halt or obstruct the production and transportation of vital defense materials and products of defense factories, and stop or impede the production, transport- Supervisors Act for Bonds For County Deputies Many Orange county deputies being in the various branches of the county government, are to bond in the future, according to action taken by the board of supervisors at their recent meeting accepting the new over-all way of protection, the supervisor kept the $376,000 worth of bonds written against elective department heads; reduced from 100 to $16,000 bonds taken out to appointive department heads, increased bonds written last county workers.

There, Daugherty's old Hup, (1922 vintage) which he had been using as a work car in his carpenter business, is not alone, for there are several other old (Continued on Page 6) Church of Christ Christian Rally Is Well Attended Scores of Southland church workers gathered in this city Tuesday for the Christian rally held in Church of Christ, Broadway and Helena street, of which the Rev.

For Zerres has devoted his entire furlough to helping out at Anaheim Citrus company, where he was employed for 13 years prior to his enlistment two years ago. Formerly a member of California Stat Guard both here and in Orange, Zerres has been visiting in the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Riggs, now of Orange but formerly of this city.

He is now awaiting transfer and will leave Sunday for San Francisco to report for appointment.

Relief trends in all California counties were reviewed, and over the state as a whole, the number of persons receiving relief in August was 43,946, a 10 per cent drop from the July total. The total sum expended in the state was $539,852, of which sum, $3,105 was expended in Orange county.
