The plane, carrying 12 civilian and four military passengers in addition to its crew of three, pilot, copilot and stewardess, left Salt Lake City for Los Angeles shortly after midnight Tuesday.

RUSSIA—Slowed but still relentless, the jaws of the Russian pincer offensive is closing on German forces across the snow-swept steppes. Hitler is trying to stave off disaster here, but the Russians (Continued on page 7) ZETTE Note: U.S. War Bond Would Be a Present With a Future DECEMBER 17, 1942 NUMBER 12 Local Army Flyer Attains Majority At Hawaiian Base Churches of City Announce New Years Day of Prayer That a national observance of a Week of Prayer to usher in the new year, was never of such importance as the present when the nation is plunged into the Global War, was the unanimous agreement of members of Ministerial Union when they met yesterday morning in the YMCA. Because of this importance of a nation-wide Week of Prayer, the Union voted unanimously to grant President Roosevelt's request for New Years Day as a second national Day of Prayer, similar in its significance to that observed on Thanksgiving Day. Plans were formulated for a city-wide service, in which all congregations will join at 1 o'clock on New Years morning, Friday, January 1, in White Temple Methodist church, of which the Rev. Thomas L. Burden is pastor. In discussing plans for the event, the Rev. Stanley Frederick George, pastor of First Presbyterian church and president of the Ministerial Union, pointed out the need for city-wide participation in the day. "Our hearts and our prayers will be centered in the boys that have gone from our homes, to their country's service," he decried. Lieut. Baker Now Stationed At Hamilton Field "It's always fair weather when good soldiers get together" is the modern twist which Lieut. Warren L. Baker, now stationed at Hamilton Field, gave the old song this week when he enjoyed meeting various Anaheim friends now in military service, while on a short trip down to San Francisco. Among the reunions was that with Naval Reserve Enlistee Richard Kendrick, son of Elwin C. Kendrick, local jeweler, and now a medical student at Stanford. The two chanced to meet at a San Francisco Symphony concert, which they enjoyed together. Kendrick has been waiting for his call to active service but present LT. ROBERT FLUOR to be with him on the importation date when he reaches his maturity. A graduate of Anaheim Union School, "Bob" Fluor, as he known far and wide here in his home community, was one of the most popular young men of his time. He was one of the school's football stars and maintained his interest in the sport after entering University of California where made engineering his major. This would have been his senior year at the University had not war intervened. But all his biotism was aroused by the Harbor attack and just a month later he had enlisted, and was instructed to report at Bakfield on January 19. Primary training at Tulare and basic training at Merced prepared him for his advanced training at Well Field, New Mexico, and once on July 26, Cadet "Bob" Fluor received his coveted wings and his commission as second lieutenant. Less than a month later, on August 22 to be exact, Fluor was sent overseas. Mr. and Mrs. Flour have scant formation as to their son's aerial duties and activities, all of which under the head of "military secrets." But they know that he must present, stationed in Honolulu, and it is there that he will touch his 21st birthday anniversary tomorrow. In discussing plans for the event, the Rev. Stanley Frederick George, pastor of First Presbyterian church and president of the Ministerial Union, pointed out the need for city-wide participation in the day. "Our hearts and our prayers will be centered in the boys that have gone from our homes, to their country's service," he declared. "The very fact that so many of our city's young men are now serving their country, makes the Day of Prayer a deeply significant one for the entire community. Our homes, our country, and our boys will all benefit by prayers rising in unison from the hearts of a people united for bringing about a better order for the world." The Rev. Earl R. Berg of Calhoun (Continued on page 3) Edison Company Adds Metals To Salvage Supply From the Santa Ana office of Rodney E. Bacon, district manager of Southern California Edison company, Ltd., has been issued the following interesting account of recent action taken by the company, showing its cooperation with the nation-wide salvage movement. Steel and iron that helped build one of the west's largest hydroelectric projects is coming out of the remote regions of the High Sierra mountains of central California this spring to go to war. Barricaded now behind the deep snows that block the Sierra passes to all but travelers on skiis and snowshoes, many tons of war materials await the coming thaws to be moved into new service. The Southern California Edison Company Ltd. has released to the War Production Board 612,000 pounds of metals in rails, flat cars and tunnel dump cars which the company used during construction of the Florence Lake-Mono-Bear section of the Big Creek electric power system, Harry J. Bauer, Edison president, has announced. “This equipment and material has been held by the company for possible emergency use,” Mr. Bauer said. “but realizing the urgency this week when he enjoyed meeting various Anaheim friends now in military service, while on a short trip down to San Francisco.

The two chanced to meet at a San Francisco Symphony concert, which they enjoyed together. Kendrick has been waiting for his call to active service, but present indications are that he will be encouraged to complete his medical course first.

However, he will have a few days at Christmas, and his father expects him to arrive to spend the time here in his boyhood home. Lieut. Baker, son of Supervisor and Mrs. James A. Baker, 411 South Ohio street, lacked just a month from graduation at Pepperdine College, Los Angeles, when he enlisted.

He had his preliminary training at March Field in Radio Communications of the Aviation branch of the service. He was transferred to Scott Field near Belleville, Ill., where he was commissioned on October 3 of this year. Mr. and Mrs. Baker went east for the ceremony, and had the pleasure of learning that their son was one of the top-ranking six from the largest class (203) yet graduating from Scott Field. Because of this ranking, he was privileged to select the field to which he was to be sent, and chose Oakland, later transferring to Hamilton Field. In the meantime he was sent to Orlando, Fla., for an intensive course in the very secret work of his chosen field of Radio communications. He made a brief visit here with his parents in mid-October before taking up his duties with the 328th Fighter Group at Hamilton Field.

F. Hazard dairy, Midway City. Details of the program beginning at 10 a.m. have been announced by W. M. Cory, assistant farm advisor, as including a reading discussion on calf raising. Local dairymen are interested in the raising of heifer calves for feed replacement purposes, and difficulty of securing suitable animals makes the discussion of social value.

Sarah Liebhart, whose death after a long illness, occurred early Tuesday morning at her home, 412 West Broadway.

Fire Chief Nyboe Explains Carbon Monoxide Dangers “Don’t have a gas heater or grate burning in a room unless you have a window lowered sufficiently to create a current of fresh air,” today warned Fire Chief Rudolph Nyboe emphatically. He pointed out that everyone in this city should take warning from the tragic death last week in Santa Ana of a young SAAAB instructor and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Kershner, as a result of carbon monoxide fumes. “Carbon monoxide gives no warning,” Chief Nyboe stated. “A victim is overcome before he even dreams of danger. Even a small amount of the fumes would be serious, for the human blood's affinity for carbon monoxide is several hundred hundred times greater than for oxygen. Carefulness is essential to safety.” Four Navy Recruits Go From This City Anaheim's newest Naval recruits are four in number, Donald W. Blum, Theron R. Holbrook, Walton L. Long and Harold V. Wright.
