Screen Work Keeps Anaheim Singer Busy in Hollywood That new Columbia picture, "Attack in the Night," which Dorothy Arzner is directing, will include an Anaheim player in its cast. For Albert M. Cranston, whose rich bass voice has been heard in countless successful screen plays, has a singing-speaking-acting role in the picture. Cranston returned Monday night to his home, 206 South Rose street, after having spent last week in Hollywood working on a cafe sequence in the picture. Merle Oberon, Brian Aherne and Carl Esmond are the featured players in the story which is one of a small Norwegian village under Nazi domination, with the famous Commandos taking prominence in the plot development. Previous to this film work, the Anaheim singer's most recent engagement was voice recordings for "Reveille With Beverly," starring Ann Miller, the new dance sensation. This also was a Columbia picture. It was especially interesting to Cranston, since a new method of suiting the recorded voice with action of the film singers, was introduced. The picture was filmed first, and then the singers timed their words to both screen and orchestra, as the two were run simultaneously. It was Ceremony Planned For Presentation Of Eagle Charter Plans for the early institution of the new Anaheim lodge of Fraternal Order of Eagles, are progressing swiftly under direction of the charter membership committee, according to Paul Wreath, deputy state organizer. This committee, headed by William J. Lake, a life member of the Eagles, includes also Albert E. Waterman and Fred A. VanRaes of Anaheim, and Roy A. Kile of Olive. In addition to its other duties, the committee has arranged for institution ceremonies to be held in Odd Fellow hall, 315 West Center street. Subsequent lodge sessions will be held there until such time as conditions permit the erection of permahent quarters with facilities for a women's auxiliary to be formed after granting of the charter. Institution and initiation of the charter class (which already numbers more than half a hundred) will be in charge of officers of the Glendale Aerie, assisted by the degree staff of Long Beach Aerie. Distinguished guests to deliver the charter will include Judge A. A. Scout of Los Angeles, president of the state organization, D. D. Heagerty of San Francisco, state organiser and guard sergeant. Delivery of parcel post packages and unnecessary second and third class matter to servicemen overseas has been restricted by the Navy with the release of new rules designed to save cargo space for important war materials, the 11th Naval District Headquarters announced today. While recognizing the importance of mail in the lives of men in the service, it has become impossible to increase cargo space for mail because of limited seafloor air shipping space, Navy officials said. In announcing the new post regulations Navy officials pointed out that the use of V-mail and fords fast, safe, mail service represents a saving of 80 per cent in cargo space over ordinary mail. Designed to insure prompt service and to save cargo space, the new restrictions are: (1) Parcel post packages in the future will not be accepted while weigh more than five pounds and measure more than 15 inches in length and 36 inches in length and girth combined. Only such parcel will be accepted once week. (2) Inappropriate second and third class matter such as advertising circulars will not be forwarded to men overseas. The Navy also called attention to the order which prohibits forwarding via parcel post or perishable matter to men on footeign duty. Young Servicemen Are Entertained Anaheim singer's most recent engagement was voice recordings for "Reveille With Beverly," starring Ann Miller, the new dance sensation. This also was a Columbia picture. It was especially interesting to Cranston, since a new method of suiting the recorded voice with action of the film singers, was introduced. The picture was filmed first, and then the singers timed their words to both screen and orchestra, as the two were run simultaneously. It was a matter of careful timing, but the Anaheim singer believes that results will be more convincing than in the earlier methods employed, which were just the reverse. Car Registration Cards Omit Next Year’s Fees California motorists today were advised by the Department of Motor Vehicles not to be concerned if the 1943 registration cards they are now receiving in the mails do not show the amount of fees due for 1944 or the type of gasoline ration coupon book assigned them. Acting Registrar Thomas V. Maloney explained that fees for Millions of Californians have learned this simple lesson: County Drainage Districts Elect Nine members of the several boards of Orange county's five drainage districts were returned to office at the annual election held last week. No directorships were contested and the men will serve four-year terms. In Westminster drainage district, H. B. Anderson was re-elected, to serve with John Kettler (president), Ed. Finley and W. E. Hennion, holdover directors. Walter O. Hill was returned as Newhope district director, with W. O. Eades and J. J. Stauffer as holdovers. Newport drainage district which serves the Greenville area, returned Eugene Griset and William O. Segerstrom. M. E. Smalley is the holdover director. Delhi drainage district elected F. C. Matthews, Nate Hughes and D. V. Hearn to succeed themselves. In Talbert district, Ernest Gisler and George A. Harding were reelected, to serve with Tom Gisler, holdover. Institution and initiation of the charter class (which already numbers more than half a hundred) will be in charge of officers of the Glendale Aerie assisted by the degree staff of Long Beach Aerie. Distinguished guests to deliver the charter will include with Judge A. A. Scout of Los Angeles, president of the state organization, D. D. Heagerty of San Francisco, state organizer and grand aerie representative. 1944 were not placed on the cards because the present rubber situation made it impossible to estimate the market value of vehicles so far ahead. Motorists probably will be notified next fall by post card of the amounts due after more is known about the possibility of obtaining new cars or retreads for civilian owned vehicles. At the request of the OPA the department attempted to place notations showing the type of gasoline bok assigned to the owner on the face of all new registration cards. However, since this information was not available in many cases, Maloney explained that thousands of registration cards have been issued upon which the type of book is not noted. (2) Inappropriate second and third class matter such as advertising circulars will not be forwarded to men overseas. The Navy also called attention to the order which prohibits the forwarding via parcel post of any perishable matter to men on footign duty.
