BACK UP YOUR BOY Increase your payroll savings to your family limit ANAHEIM The Oldest New VOLUME LXXIII ANAHEIM, ORA Chamber of Commerce Group Welcomes New Secretary Not a directors' meeting alone, but a gathering of interested members and friends of Anaheim Chamber of Commerce, yesterday expressed the welcome of that body to its new secretary, Ross Lee Laird, recently arrived from Phoenix, Ariz. to assume his duties here. Welcome was expressed in the form of a mid-day luncheon in Elks clubhouse, where Secretary Laird was formally introduced by Oscar W. Heying, president of the civic body. It was far from an in- Henry Adams, Truman W. Stuard, Glenn A. Hypes, H. T. Leo, Charles A. Pearson, Robert H. Boney, Wayne Griggs, F. A. Yungbluth, H. S. Brebner and Clarence Woodbury. Returned Veteran Of Pearl Harbor Addresses Rotary Music, a talk on Pearl Harbor and motion pictures of battle fronts provided a program of variety planned by Steven W. Golem for Monday's meeting of Rotary club in Elks clubhouse. President Paul H. Demaree conducted the short business interval during which 15 visiting Rotarians were introduced, as the largest number of fellow Rotarians present in many weeks. Meeting Announced With Congressman Phillips as Speaker Three of the city's leading service clubs, Kiwanis, Lions and Rotary, are joining with Chamber of Commerce as sponsors of a public meeting to be held here just a week from tonight, Thursday, September 2, introducing Congressman John L.

Demaree, well known educator and Rotary club president, as master of ceremonies. The guest speaker, congressman from the 22nd District, will shortly leave for Washington and his congressional duties there. This meeting will give his constituents opportunity to meet him and hear his views on national affairs. An informative phase of the program will be the question and answer feature. Everyone attending will be given a card upon which to write down some question which he would like answered, and Congressman Phillips will endeavor to answer these questions. ROSS LEE LAIRD troduction to strangers however, for in the week since his arrival in the city, Secretary Laird has displayed a capacity for making friends. The talk which he made was a brief one, but embodied some of his aims and plans for the city, plans which he hopes to put into effect through pledged cooperation of the Chamber. Secretary Laird expressed the desire to become fully acquainted with the townspeople and asked their continued assistance in maintaining the fine standards already set here by Chamber activities. He spoke of opportunities for continued industrial development here, pointing out the possibilities of further industries to follow those recently established, each to draw upon the products of the other for a maintenance of a steadily growing industrial system. Sharing the welcome to their new secretary were the majority of board members including with President Heying, Harry C. Arthur, James A. Baker, Everett M. Cone, Paul H. Demaree, Ernest F. Ganahl, O. E. Hanson, Louis Hoskins, J. Ben Kaulbars, Theodore B. Kuchel, Victor G. Loly, A. C. Riutcel (immediate past president), August E. Schumacher and Joe Sowder. Others in attendance were Leonard Schwacofer, Glenn Merrill, Music, a talk on Pearl Harbor and motion pictures of battle fronts provided a program of variety planned by Steven W. Golem for Monday's meeting of Rotary club in Elks clubhouse. President Paul H. Demaree conducted the short business interval during which 15 visiting Rotarians were introduced, as the largest number of fellow Rotarians present in many weeks. Special music of the entertainment hour was provided by Mrs. Steven Golem who played a group of brilliant accordion numbers. Guest speaker was Cpl. Harold Carlin, son of the Dr. Harold G. Carlin home on West Broadway, recently arrived from Honolulu. Cpl. Carlin was stationed in Hawaii at the time of the Pearl Harbor attack, and gave a vivid word picture of experiences and conditions there at the time and in the succeeding months during which he remained there on duty. Continuing this spirit of the world conflict in which American forces are proving their strength and courage, were films sponsored by Consolidated Aircraft, one of them depicting "Commando Raid on Norway" and the other the capture of Marshall Island by U.S. Forces.

Many Gifts Already Donated For Those Who Bid High in War Bond Auction Plans announced last week by Fowler; 1000 business cards from Orange County News: puppies Usable Recreation Equipment Needed For Armed Forces Now that gas and tire restrictions have interfered with fishing trips of Anaheim nimrods, much unused fishing equipment is gathering rust and dust in garages and storage rooms. But C. R. Brandon, manager of the local office of Automobile club of Southern California, has an idea for putting it into actual service. Brandon has explained that the Automobile club is cooperating with the Citizens' committee for Army and Navy by establishing collection depots at its district offices, for gathering up all usable recreational equipment to be sent out to our armed forces in the South Pacific theatre of war. He points out that our men stationed at these distant outposts, are sadly in need of amusements to bring relief to their almost ceaseless duty of making war, and that their very few leisure hours find them with almost nothing to occupy their minds and time. He has suggested that Anaheim folk bring their unused games to the branch office at 132 North Los Angeles street, to be added to similar gifts from all over the Southland and be sent on their way to the boys at the front. He has made suggestions as to what would be especially appreciated by these lonely soldiers. Fishing rods; reels; etc. come very high up on the list and small phonographs and their records would be almost priceless to the lads. So-called "games" books, those small folding boards for chess, dominoes, backgammon and similar games, would pass many a weary hour as would playing cards and poker chips. Then there are tennis and badminton sets, Many Gifts Already Donated For Those Who Bid High in War Bond Auction Plans announced last week by Chairman Paul H. Demaree and his Anaheim War Bond committee for a gala auction sale as local introduction to the Treasury Department's Third War Bond drive to open September 9, have met with generous support already, as proven when the committee met Tuesday in Chamber of Commerce headquarters. Gifts of every nature have already been promised by various donors, all of them to be stored in the room donated to the cause by F. A. Yungbluth. The Treasury department will provide the auctioneer who will announce the gift when bidding starts on each bond sold. The purchaser of the highest amount in bonds will in each case, receive the gift in question. A whole storeroom full of articles is expected to be in readiness for the coming event, as new donors call the committee members or the chamber of commerce daily to register their donations. Already promised are a ham from Wilson W. Phelps; a year's subscription to a safety deposit box from Southern County bank; a duck from William Wallop; two dressed ducks from John H. Boege; $25 war bond from Savings, Loan and Building association; $5 War Stamp from Elden R. Deering; Stetson hat from F. A. Yungbluth; $10 bill from Al DeWitt; ice box from Forest F. Fowler; 1000 business cards from Orange County News; puppies from Herman Oelrich. A bassinet from O. E. Hanson; guitar from Paul H. Demaree; suit of clothes from J. C. Penney Co.; selection of stamped envelopes and stamps from L. A. Hoskins; 500 printed envelopes from Leonard Schwacofer; a load of firewood delivered, or two loads if called for, from Ernest Ganahl; household items from Western Auto Supply Co.; Glasbake cooking set from F. W. Woolworth Co., grease job and oil change from Cone Brothers; an unspecified gift from Harry C. Arthur; box of printed letterheads and envelopes from Anaheim Gazette, and a rabbit from Glenn A. Hipes. These indicate the nature of gifts which will reward successful bidders on the bonds, in addition to the fine investment which they will make. For every cent they bid will mean that many more bonds which they will purchase to their own advantage, and to the aid of their country in maintaining the steady flow of victories on all the world's battlefronts. Some of these things will be embodied in letters which the War Bond committee plans to send out soon in cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce. The letters will set forth the necessity of Anaheim meeting her quota in War Bond sales set for this third campaign. So-called "games" books, those small folding boards for chess, dominoes, backgammon and similar games, would pass many a weary hour as would playing cards and poker chips. Then there are tennis and badminton sets, ping-pong and table games, all of which would be highly acceptable. Stanford Alumnus Commissioned As Ensign In USNR Just granted his commission this week, Ensign Frederick Weisel Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. F. H. Weisel of Sunkist avenue, left Tuesday for Fort Schuyler, N. Y. to enter upon his two month's indoctrination course with the U.S. Naval Reserve. Ensign Weisel, who is a graduate of Union high school and Fullerton junior college, received his Bachelor of Arts degree in June from Stanford where he majored in mechanical engineering and where he affiliated with Sigma Nu fraternity. He applied for a USNR commission at once, eager to apply his college training to his country's needs. He is especially interested in radar, and left here with the hope that he would be assigned to special training in that branch of electronics. Indications are that upon completion of his indoctrination course, Ensign Weisel will be assigned to further preparation and study at either Harvard University or Massachusetts Institute of Technology. AHEIM GAZETTE The Oldest Newspaper In Orange County — Now In Its 73rd Year ANAHEIM, ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, AUGUST 26, 1943 Blood Donors List Needs Your Name To Complete Quota Two hundred and 85 pints of blood! That is the quota that Anaheim blood donors will have to meet next Tuesday when the mobile blood plasma unit arrives at Ebell clubhouse. There is something that almost stops the heart in contemplation of what those 285 pints of blood will mean in saving lives of our courageous men on the battlefronts. Anaheim has met her quota every time with but one exception. And then she fell so far short that there is a possibility that the stated visits of the plasma blood bank will cease. But if loyalty is proven Tuesday, they will continue, today explained Mrs. J. Ben Kaulbars, who with Mrs. Llewellyn Wilson, heads the Red Cross committee entrusted with securing blood donors. More than 200 patriotic donors already have registered for Tuesday's contribution. Is your name on the list? If it isn't, why not drop whatever you are doing this minute, telephone the Red Cross at 2065, and say "I'll be there Tuesday at whatever hour you suggest between 8:40 a.m. and 12:40 p.m." and have the warm satisfaction of knowing that the small gift of a single pint of your blood will perhaps mean the dif- Church Convention Will Close With Sundav’s Programs Steadily mounting in interest, daily programs of the Southwest Christian convention in session this week at Anaheim Church of Christ are drawing capacity audiences to the church, where many fine speakers are to be heard on subjects in line with the convention theme, “The Church For Such a Time as This”. Three days remain of the conclave, each with addresses and fine music given in accordance with the program arranged by the Rev. Claude A. Lorts of Clovis, New Mex. Programs and convention alike will reach a climax with Sunday's services to follow the morning Sunday school hour of 9:45 o'clock. The host church, of which the Rev. Al Casebeer is pastor, will have charge of the service at 11 o'clock, including the music. Guest speaker will be Chaplain V. E. Butterworth of Camp Roberts, whose message will be “The Supreme Authority of Jesus Christ Over His Church.” Sunday afternoon's program, opening with song at 2 o'clock, followed by Bible study and prayer in charge of the Rev.

Command of the Naval Aviation Cadet Selection board of the Eleventh Naval District has been turned over to Lieut. Comdr. Henry Hill, USNR, it was announced this week from board headquarters in Los Angeles. Lieut. Comdr. Hill succeeds Lieut. Comdr. F. A. Brossy, USNR in the post, and the latter has been ordered to duty outside continental limits of the United States. He had served since December 10, 1940 when the board headquarters were at the Naval Reserve Aviation Base in Long Beach. At that time his staff comprised only himself and Lieut. (j.g.) Dale Hilton, USNR, former noted athlete of University of Southern California now reported to be a prisoner of the Japanese after being shot down in a South Pacific air battle. With the increased demand for naval aviators after Pearl Harbor, the board headquarters were transferred to the present location, 306 West Third street, Los Angeles. Methods devised by Commander Brossy for selection of future Navy and Marine airmen placed the Eleventh Naval District at the head of the nation in the percentage of men who completed flight training and received commissions as ensigns in the Naval Reserve or second lieutenants in the Marine Corps Reserve. His successor, Commander Hill, was one of the country's early naval aviators and won his wings while training for naval aviation duty during World War 1. He Was recalled to active duty less than a year ago, as executive officer of the cadet selection board in Minneapolis, where he received orders to take command of the Los Angeles board. just before congress recessed last month, directing the Public Lands Committee to look into the plight of local government. Recognizing the acute situation in California, the committee chairman, Representative J. Hardin Peterson of Florida, appointed Elliott to head a subcommittee and to hold hearings throughout California. Commenting on the investigation, Representative Elliott said: "Much property has passed to Federal ownership in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, Ventura and Santa Barbara counties. As a former county supervisor, I realize that local government has suffered because of land taken from tax rolls through Federal acquisition. Unless relief is afforded, remaining property owners in the affected areas will be subjected to unbearable tax burdens. "I hope that the meetings will be well attended by taxpayers and local officials who will furnish me with the data that I can take back to Washington to demonstrate the urgent need for prompt remedial legislation. In the stress of the war we must not overlook preservation of local government and the way of life for which it stands." CALL TO PICNIC A. B. Olson, president of Wisconsin State society, has sent out a call to all former and visiting "Badgers" to meet Saturday for an all-day picnic reunion in Sycamore Grove park, Los Angeles.

VirEuropean Conflict Is Discussed For Kiwanis Group One of the most arresting talks on war conditions which Anaheim Kiwians have ever heard, was that addressed to them Tuesday by Harry Wilson, local youth who served valiantly with both British and American forces until given a final medical discharge. Presented by Paul Davidson, chairman of the day, Wilson's talk dominated the club session conducted by President Ewald Lemcke in Elks clubhouse. The stark drama, as his talk developed, held members in breathless interest as he started with his experiences in the Spanish war after going to England as a seaman. Escape over the Pyrenees and Charter Membership Formed For Navy Mothers Club Marked by an enthusiasm which promises well for the success and steady growth of the Navy Mothers club to serve Northern Orange County, Monday night's organizational meeting in American Legion clubrooms saw a total of 47 members, exactly two score of whom formed the charter membership. Mrs. Lois Mandy of Santa Ana Navy Mothers club, who has worked with local women for formation of the group, and Chief Poole of the Navy Recruiting office, Santa Ana, were present to aid in effecting the organization and to add their names to the charter list with those of local members; including Florence Smith, acting adjutant; Stella Thaxton, contact mother, and the remaining Navy Mothers who have the honor to be charter members. Prominent among these were the women to serve as temporary officers until the charter is received within the next few weeks, when official election will be held. These temporary officers were selected as Mrs. R. W. Marvin, commander; Florence Smith, adjutant; Agnes Hund, financial officer; Hazel D.

Mia Show To Be Next Week County Society Mia growers of Anaheim and Orange county have been busy with much interest, animent of the scene of the Orange County Dahlia to be held in Santa Ana number 3 and 4. Today they tell that the show will at the MacMullen Chevrolet show at First and Sycamore in the neighboring city. G. Emmett Raitt, president of county society, has re-entrants that their dahlia must be at the showroom o'clock on Friday morning, opening day. The show will open to the public from 1 to 9 on Friday, and from 10 a.m. on Saturday. Presented by Paul Davidson, chairman of the day, Wilson's talk dominated the club session conducted by President Ewald Lemcke in Elks clubhouse. The stark drama, as his talk developed, held members in breathless interest as he started with his experiences in the Spanish war after going to England as a seaman. Escape over the Pyrenees and across France; a channel crossing as a stowaway aided by merchant seamen, were all preliminary to his enlistment with a Canadian Scottish regiment after he finally returned to America. He was one of only 11 men of his regiment of 800 who survived the fighting in Belgium and reached Dunkirk at the time of its evacuation. Incidentally, he impressed upon his audience that the British fled Dunkirk not through fear of the advancing Germans, but in order to survive so that they might fight again. After his discharge from the British Army when he was invalided to Canada, Wilson again sailed as a merchant seaman and survived a torpedoing of his ship and 29 hours of floating in the icy water. It was upon arrival in England that he enlisted with the American Army, to find, to his surprise, one of his comrades on the flight from Dunkirk, was his sergeant. Wilson suffered many shrapnel wounds, but was returned to the United States for training in Officers' Candidate school, when his depleted physician condition became apparent with a sudden loss of memory. These were only a few of the dramatic stories which Kiwanians heard with such interest. They had enjoyed a previous program from Mrs. Wilson, charming English girl whom the former Anaheimer had met and married during the London blitz. On that program, Mrs. Wilson had drawn a vivid picture of life in London during the air raids. AIRCRAFT MECHANIC Pfc. Ernest E. Small of 206 La Palma avenue, 20-year-old son of Mrs. Ruby Mar Jones, has just completed his intensive course in aircraft mechanics and graduated from Aero Tech, Los Angeles, under the Army Air Forces Technical Training command. Prominent among these were the women to serve as temporary officers until the charter is received within the next few weeks, when official election will be held. These temporary officers were selected as Mrs. R. W. Marvin, commander; Florence Smith, adjutant; Agnes Hund, financial officer; Hazel D. Loudon and Viola Hays, matrons-at-arms; Genevieve Heinz and Eva TerBeest, color bearers, and Edna Wisser, chaplain. Program features were brief, with talks short and very much to the point. Mrs. M. P. Thaxton, who has been prominent in activities preparatory to the formal organization, acted as chairman, and introduced Mrs. Mandy and Chief Poole. Their talks were significant, and each stressed that Navy Mothers club is far from a social organization, although it breathes the very spirit of friendliness. But it is organized primarily to give aid and assistance to men at sea, they explained, and its members are serious in their attitude toward duties expected from them. The spirit shown by the women in attendance indicates that Ana-(Continued on Page 6) Army Air Forces Streamline Training Centers Seven training centers at various points in the western United States will comprise the new streamlined Army Air Forces Western Flying Training Command, according to announcement made this week by Maj. Gen. Ralph P. Cousins, commandant at Santa Ana Army Air Base. The new organization will replace the West Coast Training Center. Wing headquarters will operate on a functional rather than a geographical basis as has been in effect in the past. Schools will offer bombardier courses, primary, basic, advanced and transitional piloting, gunnery and specialized training. The seven units comprise Santa Ana, Merced and Victorville, California; Las Vegas, Nev.; Roswell, N.M.; Luke Field and Douglas Ariz. Administration and supervision will be directed through Santa Ana. Prominent Agriculturists Will Attend Farm Bureau’s “Little Convention” Several more prominent figures in agriculture have indicated their intention to be present at the annual “little convention” of Farm Bureau which is to occur Saturday in White Temple Methodist church, it is indicated by those in charge of the program. The program is open to the public and will feature conferences of commodity groups on current perplexing farm problems. With President Ray B. Wiser of the California Farm Bureau Federation, already scheduled as the chief speaker in the afternoon general conference, it was indicated that W. J. Cecil, director of Agriculture in California, or his assistant, W. B. Woodburn, would join in the dairy conference scheduled for 10 a.m. as one of several departmental meetings. Cecil and Woodburn have been in conference in Washington, D.C., on the California dairy situation with a view to solution of the critical feed problem. Dwight Stephenson, chairman of the department of the state Farm Bureau, also will be on hand, states Elmer Ritner, Santa Ana, who will preside. Ritner is chairman of the dairy department of Farm Bureau. R. W. Blackburn, national Farm Bureau secretary, who has tendered his resignation effective September 1, is expected to be present. A Californian with ranching interests in Coachella valley, Blackburn is a past president of the California Farm Bureau. Also scheduled to sit in on the conference is Congressman John Phillips of Banning. Special emphasis is being placed on dairy and home department meetings, although groups on field crops, walnuts, poultry, citrus and tax will also meet. Women of the home department will welcome Mrs. T. M. Sims, chairman of the State Farm Bureau Home department, as well as Miss Claribel Nye, leader of California Home Demonstration agents. The program schedules a general assembly at 9:30 a.m.; departmental meetings at 10; lunch at noon, for which reservations are required; and an afternoon of speeches and discussions scheduled to end at 4 o'clock, according to S. W. Stanley of Tustin, director of Region No. 1, and chairman of the meeting.
