Kuchel Editors and Publishers The Anaheim Gazette has been owned and edited by the same family since 1875. Published every Thursday at 259 East Center Street, Anaheim, California.

Joining The Battle Line Haven't your pulses leaped when you've read in the papers or heard on the radio, some of the daring exploits of those courageous boys of ours on the far battle fronts of the world? Some of them are youths whom we have known right here in our home community of Anaheim, have watched as they progressed rom their first lost tooth to their graduation from Union high school, from there mischievous raids on an unsuspecting neighbor's fruit tree to their first blushing "date." "How I wish I might be a fighter too," you have sighed. "I wish I didn't have to keep plugging away at this monotonous job and counld do something really big for my country." All right, you can! You can, and I can, and so can John Smith at the corner grocery, and Mary Jones, teaching those youngsters at the grade school, and Mary's mother, busy at home duties, andohn's father, trudging his postman's route. All of us can make a vital contribution to the war effort. We can help fight this war on the most important front of all—the Food Front. We have the word of the Commander in Chief of the country's fighting forces, President Roosevelt that food in this war is of equal importance with planes, tanks and guns. And this year, the need for food, especially canned food, is greater than ever before. All these oranges, fruits and vegetables grown right here in the Anaheim area, processed by our local plants, are of vital importance. They are needed just as much as are those lads that we send away with a brave smile—and a breaking heart. But these important foods must be harvested, processed and packed before they can be of service. When this is accomplished (and it MUST be accomplished) they will help feed our fighting men, our courageous Allies, and the starving little children in distant lands to whom they will be truly a Godsend. These very war conditions create a scarcity of workers. Yet such crops cannot wait. They must be harvested swiftly — and processed just as swiftly. Anaheim heeded a call for help when the spinach crop was threatened with total loas. Business men and women, housewives teachers, students turned out with a will and met that emergency. Will you all do it again?

Those recommended will be furnished with transportation to the Los Angeles Navy Recruiting station where they will be given a physical examination. If found sound, the applicants will be released through their draft boards and earmarked for the Navy's Seabees—"the build-in'est, fightin'est outfit in the world"—with rating up to chief petty officers. The Santa Ana recruiting station will remain open from 8 a.m. Saturday and as late as required to take care of the influx of Navy candidates expected to apply under this new plan.

James L. Brader was guest speaker. Lieut. Brader is a member of the Naval Aviation Cadet Selection board, Los Angeles, and his talk was of special value to young men of the graduating class, since he explained the eligibility of seniors and graduates in the 17-year-old bracket, for the Navy's flight training program. According to his explanation, applicants who are accepted as Apprentice Seamen in Class V-5 before May 1 will have opportunity to obtain eight months of college training in addition to the regular 17-month course in aviation. He described the steps to be taken by such applicants, and emphasized the necessity of their remaining in school until their graduation. Naval aviation cadets will be commissioned as ensigns in the Naval Reserve or as second lieutenants in the Marine Corps Reserve upon completion of the entire training program.

The War department recently banned the sale at post exchanges of ornaments, insignia, and other articles of the uniform that are issued by the supply services. This measure became necessary because many civilians have been wearing the insignia of various services, contrary to army regulations 600-40, Aug. 28, 1941. Penalty for violation of this ruling may include the cash fine or imprisonment, not to exceed six months. It's common sense to be thrifty. If you save you are thrifty.
