Arrival of a Son Is Announced By Carl Rieske’s Lusty "Mike" Reeske made his arrival, last Tuesday morning at the Anaheim Lutheran hospital, in a noisy world and typical of the times his first toy is not a baby blue rattle, but rather a toy machine gun and it probably won't be too long until he is playing "bang, bang." Young "Mike" is really Carl Michael and his parents are Carl and Mabel Reeske of 912 North Clementine street and owners of the Spanish Kitchen on South Los Angeles street. The story is that he is a miniature replica of his father and weighed seven pounds, three and one-half ounces at birth. Both he and his mother are doing well and will be returning to their home in another ten days. As Mike is an only child there was a good deal of excitement at the Spanish Kitchen the day he was born. Some well-wishers hung a huge placard in the cafe window and it read, "It's a Boy. Come on in!" Please phone 2206 and give The Gazette your local, personal, and society items. SON BORN A son, Arnold Joseph, was born March 19 at the Anaheim Lutheran hospital to Mr. and Mrs. Edward Barrington of 550 South Los Angeles street. At birth the baby weighed seven pounds and twelve and three-fourths ounces. Mother and son are doing nicely and will return to their home this weekend.
