Fine Contribution To War Effort Probably no California city in Anaheim's population brackets, has sent more hero sons to the battlefronts, nor been more faithful in its war efforts, from Red Cross work to Civilian Defense with all the varied side issues of blood banking, Victory Gardens, etc. But have many of us stopped to think what the Anaheim area is doing in producing the essential vitamins contained in orange products, not only for our men and our Allies, but for the uncounted thousands of civilians in war-scarred Europe? This service was impressed on our minds by what Lee Shippey had to say in his popular column, "Lee Side o' L. A." in a recent issue of the Los Angeles Times. We all like a bit of appreciation, and Lee Shippey expresses this appreciation when he says "In Anaheim one plant works 24 hours a day. It will receive citrus fruits at any hour and is making them into concentrates at all hours. One carload of 6000 gallons of orange concentrate contains the food value of 27 carloads of fresh oranges. It requires only one box-car to ship it across this country and one comparatively small space on a ship, instead of a whole string of freight cars and corresponding space on a ship. Millions of persons who never knew the European tour taken by Mr. and Mrs. McDaniel in 1938, at which time McDaniel was convinced of pending war trouble with a resultant close of orange markets. "He urged growers to organize a cooperative concentrating plant," Shippey stated, "and Southern California Citrus Foods" was the result. "That is one reason why when war came in 1939 and shipping space at once became inadequate. California was able to send citrus concentrates to Britain. Probably the British consumed more orange juice than they ever had before, and they became dependent upon it. It was so valuable that when they feared invasion they buried citrus concentrate just as they buried other rare treasures . . . they had learned that when a normal diet is impossible the qualities of oranges, lemons and grapefruit may make the difference between health and misery. "Citrus concentrates are so important to Army, Navy and lend-lease that Uncle Sam demands of every California grower that each week he deliver to the processing plants 20 per cent as many oranges as he sells as fresh fruit. In the year ending July 1, Uncle Sam brought 2,115,000 gallons of orange concentrate, 820,000 gallons of lemon concentrate, and 56,-500 gallons of grapefruit concentrate from California plants." Kiwanis Division Presidents Hold Summer Conclave One of these important claves was held Thursday in New Beach with Balboa Yacht club setting for their conclave. They were extended welcome Harry Welch, secretary of Port Harbor Chamber of Commerce, preliminary to the business session called by Lieut.ernor Horn. There was much discussion policies for the coming year; initial plans were made for special meeting in November which each club will cooperate with its local press in public Kiwanis activities. Prominent among the gree was District Governor Thomas Gore who came from his F-side home to take part. Kiwanis presidents in attendance were Rev. E. D. Goodell of the club of Newport Harbor Ewald Lemcke, Anaheim; G Bellis, Buena Park; Elmer ensen, Fullerton; Cecil Br La Habra; David Carmic Santa Ana, and Dr. Arthur M Whittier. Past lieutenant governors included J. B. Collings and H Nelson of the Anaheim club Raymond Temple, Buena Don O'Hanlon and Glenn L Fullerton; Nelson Launer and Zinn, La Habra; Randolph M and Herbert Planette, White George Wells, Lyle Mitchell. It will receive citrus fruits at any hour and is making them into concentrates at all hours. One carload of 6000 gallons of orange concentrate contains the food value of 27 carloads of fresh oranges. It requires only one box-car to ship it across this country and one comparatively small space on a ship, instead of a whole string of freight cars and corresponding space on a ship. Millions of persons who never knew the taste of orange juice will learn what it can mean to them, and there should never again be the problem of disposing of surplus citrus fruits in California." In his article, Shippey points out that if it weren't for the citrus growers of the Southland, wounded men, little children and expectant mother, in England would be dying, while soldiers in both North Africa and in Guadalcanal would miss these "protective foods." He quotes Bruce McDaniel of Redlands MOD, well known to every Anaheim citrus grower, to the effect that these California growers are on a vital lifeline which not only means protection and health to our Army and Navy, but will be the saving of multitudes of little children in all the Allied nations. Development of the tremendous plan of concentrates is described in the article, as an outcome of an Night Skies Offer "Shooting Stars" Star gazers who like to watch the August heavens for the "shooting stars" that flash across the skies during the first half of the month are rewarded these night by seeing them at the rate of about 10 an hour. For the earth is at present passing through one of these groups of little meteors which are small particles of iron or stone which enter the earth's atmosphere at high velocity, and immediately ignite, to become completely vaporized. The current display was supposed to have reached its maximum last night when observers were able to see about one of the tiny meteors a minute. But the shower will continue until the middle of the month before the earth passes out of the group. The brilliant moonlight will limit the number of meteors visible however. These meteors are called Perseids because their radiant is located in the constellation of Perseus. This constellation arises in the northeast shortly before midnight so that the best hours for seeing the "shooting stars" are in the second half of the night. INDIA'S INDUSTRIES Equipped with new American machinery, India is producing as much gun ammunition in a month as she produced in a year prior to the war.

Kiwanis Division Presidents Hold Summer Conclave One of the plans which Harry I. Born, lieutenant governor of Kiwanis Division Four, is carrying during his regime is a series of conferences during which Kiwanis club presidents and past lieutenant governors are right together for informal conferences on Kiwanis affairs. One of these important concludes was held Thursday when members assembled in Newport Beach with Balboa Yacht club asking for their conclave. There were extended welcome by Mary Welch, secretary of Newport Harbor Chamber of Commerce, preliminary to the business session called by Lieut. Governor Horn. There was much discussion of topics for the coming year, and special plans were made for a special meeting in November in which each club will cooperate with its local press in publicizing Kiwanis activities.

In Halifax they docked at the very point where the terrible explosion the previous year, had shocked the world. After this harrowing experience Rude was returned to Boston where he was attached to a receiving ship later to be transferred to Great Lakes Naval Training Station until April, 1919. He had enlisted in 1917 at Omaha, Nebr. Rude came to Anaheim in 1922, and for the past 15 years has been connected with the police department. He and Mrs. Rude have a pleasant home at 835 South Claudina street. A member of Anaheim post No. 72 American Legion, Police Sgt. Rude served as commander in 1938-39. The Legion magazine article and pictures were sent by N. R. Davis, member of the Navy post of Boston, who had taken the pictures from the deck of the Culgoa on which he was a crew member. One of Rude's cherished mementoes of the experience is a poem describing the collision and the courage and reaction of the men involved, written at the time by Francis Kean MacMurrough, Capt. M. R. G., transport surgeon aboard the San Jacinto. Many Seek Permits To Hunt Antelope If Anaheim Nimrods failed to get their applications for permits to hunt antelope in to the state division of fish and game at Sacramento before midnight last night, they shouldn't worry too much.

For tomorrow when the drawing is held in the state capital for the 500 fortunate hunters to be so privileged, the Bureau of Licenses chief, H. R. Dunbar, and his staff will have to make their selection from nearly 4000 applications. So there will be many more disappointed hunters than successful ones. Antelope permits cost five dollars each and those among the lucky 500 must also have hunting licenses. Game wardens have reported that hunting prospects are good since the antelope are plentiful. Opera Company Has Many Engagements Returning this morning to his home, 206 South Rose street, Albert Cranston reports a fine reception from San Diego music lovers when the Grand Opera association of the Golden West sang "Faust" last night in that city. Cranston sang the leading bass role of "Wagner" under the baton of Maestro Gebert. Tomorrow night he will repeat the role when the company fulfills an engagement in Los Angeles Philharmonic auditorium with Franchetti conducting. On Saturday afternoon Cranston will sing "Zuniga" in "Carmen" and on Saturday night the company will present "Rigoletto" in the Philharmonic, with Guerrieri conducting, and the local basso taking part. Army Mules Are Not the Forgotten Beasts the Tunisian mountains. Reports from Camp Carson, Colo., show how army mules are trained. First they're taught to carry grain bags around a kind of circular mule-obstacle course. The bags are then increased until they become the equivalent of a 95-pound packsaddle plus a couple hundred pounds. MARINES' PAY Members of a Marine Corps regiment of Guadalcanal veterans have cabled more than a half-million dollars to relatives in the United States. After the regiment had moved from Guadalcanal to a new base and collected accrued pay, the money was forwarded to the homeland by Lt. James J. Fitzgerald of Chicago, regimental chaplain.
