Thursday, September 13, 1945 YOUR Sunkist REPORTER Schools Add C to 3 R's September already! Days getting shorter, mornings chillier, and the kids starting off to school again. Wonder how many citrus growers realize that a great number of these kids going back to school now all over America will study not only reading, writing and arithmetic but also citrus fruit... It's a fact. Down in the lower grades the youngsters, in a large percentage of schools, learn something about citrus growing at a surprisingly early age. They also learn, in a simple way, about vitamin C and the importance of citrus to health—the need to have oranges or orange juice every day. In many schools, teachers will soon pin on the wall a Physical Fitness Guide for the youngsters to study. It emphasizes the need for the right foods, including orange juice and lemonade. If you went into these schoolrooms and examined the Fitness Guide and the teaching material on citrus, you'd find that most of it says: "Compiled by the Educational Division, California Fruit Growers Exchange... Sunkist Oranges and Lemons." In higher grades the students learn who brought the orange to California and where they grew. Merchants Seek Many Answers In City Quiz The retail merchants division of the Anaheim chamber of commerce decided, at a meeting Monday at the chamber of commerce offices, that they are going to know a lot about this city before the snow flies—back east. Harold Smith, Clayton Allen, Al Cotler, Wayne Griggs and Philip Segrais were named to a special committee to make a complete survey of the business section of the city to learn rent costs, number and type of employees, variety of merchandise and price scales. They also will try to find out what merchants are doing or plan to do about "face lifting" and modernizing their stores inside and out particularly with reference to rear entrance improvements to fit proposed off-street parking plans. Monthly breakfasts of the division at the Parker House at 7:30 a.m. on the last Tuesday of each month will be held. The next breakfast, Tuesday, Sept. 25, with E. W. Moeller, secretary of the C. of C., scheduled to explain the revamped version of his proposal for a master plan for Anaheim, which was originally approved by the chamber, city and most of the service clubs. Plans for Christmas decorations were left in the hands of a committee composed of Wayne Griggs, O. W. Connor and Lee Fabian. Half of “Gledhills’ Navy Duty; Returns to Civic Jack Gledhill, busy proprietor of the Associated Service station at the southeast corner of Broadway and Los Angeles streets, has been holding down two jobs during the war. He has been running his business and also doing a job in the Coast Guard at Newport. His two sons, Melvin and Jack, Jr., have been in the navy. The trio have often been referred to as “Gledhill’s Navy” with more truth than poetry. Now two things have happened to relieve the manpower shortage in the Gledhill setup. Jack, Sr., and Jack, Jr., are both out of the service and have their full time to devote to their business enterprises. Jack, Sr., refers to the situation as a part of his navy coming home—Jack, Jr., just gets in and does the work. With plenty of everything to sell the motorist both father and son will have to keep on the job until the other part of “Gledhill’s Navy” is discharged and comes home to work. A display window showing souvenirs sent home from the Philippines by Melvin is causing quite a lot of comment. A number of Filipino bolos, one of the chief weapons, of various shapes and sizes with blades from six inches long to one more than a foot long, part of a Jap flyer’s belt (the other half of which was taken by his comrade); a 40-mm. shell; several clips of machine gun bullets, all of which played their part in overcoming the Jap menace in the islands. Also on display are two large table mats, one being five by five feet and the other $3\frac{1}{2}$ x $1\frac{1}{2}$ feet; several necklaces of beads or shells and one especially attractive necklace. In higher grades the students learn who brought the orange to California and study the two major varieties, Navels and Valencias. They learn where the California-Arizona citrus districts are; how lemons are picked; and how growers protect the orchards against frost. They also learn something about citrus marketing, and how the California growers got together and formed a great cooperative marketing organization called the California Fruit Growers Exchange. Most important of all, they study the food elements in citrus fruit, learn why vitamin C is so essential in the diet, why citrus is necessary for sturdy growth and sound teeth and gums. All this comes from a little book called, "The Story of California Oranges and Lemons," widely used in schools throughout America. It, too, is put out by the Educational Division of the California Fruit Growers Exchange. High school and college home economics classes study a series of food lessons called the Sunkist Bulletin, approved by educational authorities because it is up to date, scientific and prepared with a proper understanding of teaching methods. All Sunkist teaching material has wide acceptance for those same reasons. For 20 years the Educational Division has spread knowledge of citrus through motion pictures. The current picture, "Citrus in Nutrition," a sound film in color, gives the whole citrus story from the Sunkist grove to the consumer's table. It shows to an average of well over a million students and housewives a year. The Educational Division of the Exchange, like its close partner, the Home Economics Division, receives little fanfare. But few Exchange activities are more basic. They make a real contribution to the welfare of American youth and to the health of the nation. The expense of the work is small; the effects are deep and far-reaching. It's one more of those many activities that could not be carried on by a small group of growers, but can be, and are, carried on effectively by the Exchange, in which many growers work together.

Bill Morris Writes the Gazette From Post in France Pfc. “Bill” Morris, son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul A. Morris of this city, writes the Gazette from Mailly-le-Camp, France, where he is stationed as one of the ace army photographers and working at present with the occupation troops. His letter, in part, follows: “At this writing, I’m just trying to get assembled from the rush of the V-J day ceremonies, and my return from a trip into Germany. As it happened, the first news I got of the offer of Japanese surrender was in the midst of the ETO championship track and field meet in the Nurenburg stadium where one A. Hitler used to review his playful little gangsters. It was quite a thrill to me to hear the news of surrender for the first time in the heart of Nazi “culture.” It also seemed rather appropriate. “While at the meet, I had the opportunity to meet, rather officially, and to visit with Gen. Patton, CG Third army. “The country has calmed down a little from the celebrations, and things have returned to normal with everyone speculating on his chances to be home for Christmas. a civilian again. As for myself, I don’t hold much hope of being home by then, but then the army might fool me.” Lloyd Smith, son of Mrs. Elsie Smith of 207 Cherry street, notified his mother last Monday that he was being sent to the Hawaiian Funeral services will be conducted from the chapel of Hildenfeld Mortuary on Saturday afternoon.
