No further details Local Resident Hears from Brother In France War Zone Twenty-two years ago B. F. (Chappy) Chaplin of the Anaheim Gazette force, made the last visit to his old home at Waycross, Georgia, at the home of his parents, and renewed acquaintances with boyhood friends and his twelve brothers and sisters. Two years following that visit another brother was born and was given the name of Johnny Herbert. In the meantime Johnny Herbert grew up in his home town, attended the schools and otherwise enjoyed life as other boys did who were born during the years between World War No. I and the present world conflict. Three years ago, like many other boys of high school age, Johnny Herbert Chaplin volunteered his services and entered the armed forces. He went to training camp and eventually was assigned to the anti-aircraft division and was sent overseas without ever having seen his older brother in Anaheim. For over a year B. F. Chaplin has tried to learn the address of his soldier baby brother but had failed to receive a current mailing address. Out of a clear sky on Monday came an airmail letter from Johnny Herbert, written from "Somewhere in France," on October 9, three weeks to the day before its arrival here, informing his brother in Anaheim that he was with the invasion army, safe and well. Needless to say the surprise letter was gladly received by B. F. Chaplin and Johnny Herbert will in due time hear from the brother RETURNS FROM VISIT WITH RELATIVES T/Sgt. Rudy Villalobos, son of Mrs. Eleonor Villalobos of 12 Walnut street, who has recently returned from seven months' active service in England, has spent the past week or so visiting with relatives and friends in southern and northern points in this state returning to his home here last Monday evening. He will be here until the ninth of this month where he will report to the rest camp at Santa Monica for reassignment. Turkey Production All-Time Record Broken This Year The turkey market situation is presented by George B. Alcorn extension specialist in marketing of the Agricultural Extension Service. The government has only a small part of the turkeys needed for government services in spite of premium prices offered for early birds. Alcorn said 35.7 million turkeys will be raised this year, the equivalent of 500 million pounds of turkey. This is a production record for all times eight per cent above last year and four per cent above the previous record of 1940. Twenty-five per cent of this production will go to government industries. The increased production is largely due to a larger supply of turkey hatching eggs this year, in addition to improved feed supplies and favorable weather. The grower is now getting 34.3 cents per pound for No. 1 live turkeys. Is Reported As 'Missing in Action' First Lieutenant Jonathan K. Shafer, husband of Mrs. Naomi Carlin Shafer, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Harold G. Carlin of West Broadway, this city, is reported to be "missing in action" in a mission over Czecho-Slovakia on Friday, October 13, according to a message Mrs. Shafer received from the War Department Monday morning. No further details were given but a letter will follow in the near future. Mrs. Shafer and Dr. and Mrs. Carlin are hoping that he may be a prisoner of war and that eventually they may hear from him.
