Colonists Upset the Rose Bowl; Spill Glendale Hoover Hi, 19-13 Coach Hal Hopkins' Colonists of Anaheim High are not foolin'—no foolin'! They're really taking their football seriously—and that's a serious matter for those opponents who have faced them in their first three tilts of the present gridiron season, all of which have been victories for the home team. Refusing to be awed, either by the fact that the famed Rose Bowl is considered sacred soil by devotees of the pigskin pastime, or that they were supposed to be stepping out of their class when they faced the Glendale Hooverites at Pasadena last Saturday night, the sturdy lads from the Valencia Capital walked off with the long end of a 19-13 count. Outplaying, out-thinking and out-gaming their highly-touted opposition, the local 'leven got off to a 19-0 lead in the first half. A Glendale touchdown in the early stages of the first quarter was nullified when Hoover was penalized for offside on the play. First On a Pass Anaheim's first touchdown came when, after Leikhuis recovered a Hoover fumble on their 15-yard line, Bauer picked up 11 on two plays and the Tornadoes were penalized to the 1½, Rodriguez, alone in the end zone, took a short pass from Koontz. The kick failed. Bauer ran 20 yards around left end for the second goal, and Hernandez added the extra tally. Bauer also scored the third and last touchdown for the locals. Hund kicked off into the end zone and Hoover, falling to gain after taking over on the 20 went into 85-Pound ‘Typhoon’ Hits Police Station Anaheim police know now what the United States fleet went through when struck by typhoons in the West Pacific! A "typhoon" struck their headquarters the night of October 28—at least they hung that moniker on Hubert Walker, a transient laborer who gave Mill Springs, Ky., as his place of origin. Gave it? Well—finally. It all began when Officer L. E. Wood responded to a call from the 100 block of North Clementine street that a "very drunk person" was there. Wood brought in four feet and seven inches of what he admits was a "very drunk person, every inch very drunk." Desk Sgt. E. R. Sherman tried to elicit some information, then tried to fingerprint the prisoner. No luck in either try, so the prisoner was booked as "Typhoon," and the Sarge wrote on the police blotter: "Trying to fingerprint him was like trying to print an eel. Please! Please!, somebody, book him later." Wood, whose 85 pounds of brawn matched his height, earned his nickname by his speed in twisting and squirming, while chewing on the officers' legs, they report, all the while offering to 'lick anybody' in sight.

The kick failed. Bauer ran 20 yards around left end for the second goal, and Hernandez added the extra tally. Bauer also scored the third and last touchdown for the locals. Hund kicked off into the end zone and Hoover, falling to gain after taking over on the 20, went into punt formation. Hernandez tore through to block the kick and Bates recovered on the one-yard line. Bauer then smashed through his own right tackle for the touchdown, and Hernandez failed by inches to convert. Air Defense Weak The Tornadoes, living up to their name, unleashed an air attack that had the Colonists baffled as they chalked up their losing two tallies. Then the Hopkinsites perfected a defense against the bomb attack, thereby averting defeat for themselves and heart failure for their thousands of rooters. In addition to victory, the tilt brought realization that the Anaheim eleven must improve its aerial offense and defense ere it meets the Santa Ana Saints in the Sunset league opener there tomorrow night. Anaheim's supporters staged an impressive show of local spirit at the Pasadena set-to. Bill Cook and his blue-and-gold-clad Colonist band gave a 15-minute exhibition between halves that brought praise from both sides. The Girls' Glee club, in white sweaters and blue skirts, got an equally nice hand. 1946 Chevrolet Shown Here Nov. 3 Cone Brothers will unveil the new post-war Chevrolet to a waiting Anaheim public next Saturday—designated as "C Day." First shown is the "Stylemaster" four-door sport sedan. The new car is declared by members of the local sales and service organization to embody many improvements and innovations which brand it truly a 1946 model, and not just a hastily converted adaptation of the old.

Monday morning, sans vinos, he meekly gave his name and other information to Judge Tausch, pleaded guilty to having looked too long on the grape when red, and received a fine of $10, in lieu of which he headed for the klink to serve it out at $2 a day. Anaheim Hunters Back from Utah With Much Game Anaheim deer hunters are back home, most with the hide, head and red-point-saving roasts to prove their prowess. Plenty of deer are reported by some nimrods, more, in fact, than last season. Others declare game was unusually scarce. A party which spent several days in Pine Valley, near St. George, Utah, consisted of Pete Wisser, R. Dinkler and son; Ted; Jimmie Cochran and Sam Loard. Each had a deer draped across his radiator when they arrived home. Ted Dinkler topped the bunch, with a four-point buck that dressed better than 200 pounds. Another Pine Valley party consisted of Abe and Carrol Cone, Art Wilmsen, Newell Christainsen and Roy Mendoza of Anaheim, and Jack Prizer of Fullerton. Walt Koehler went along as chief cook and pan pusher. Three Bucks for Six Three bucks gave them a batting average of .500 at a half-a-buck a member, but who got what is being treated as a secret by members of the party. These hunters have been visiting Pine Valley over a period of several years, making their headquarters at the Rex Gardner homestead. They report the hunting in that vicinity unusually poor this season, due to early cold weather, which drove the deer to the lower hills. Better luck was enjoyed by Octave Roquet, Aksel Oas and Dan Wright, the latter of Brea, who camped out about 15 miles from Beaver, Utah. They returned after five days with six deer, the limit for the party.

Those pestiferous red points will remain with us at least another several weeks, Secretary of Agriculture Anderson disclosed in Washington this week. Rationing possibly will continue throughout the balance of the year, he indicated. Secretary Anderson offered one ray of sunshine through the clouds that befoul the meats-fats-oils situation, however. Downward revision of red point values is probable. Possible easing of the meat supply situation here is seen in announcement by the agriculture department that California is one of 10 states exempted from supplying beef, veal and mutton to the government, under terms of a new program. Ending of shoe rationing this week was welcome news, especially to families with small children. Local Firm Shows Post-War Radios fulfilling its promise to "beat the field" with the first new radios for civilian use, the John Beck Industries, Plymouth, Ind., recently delivered the first radio be received by Nareth Sound Music company of 271 East Water street, since the lifting of time restrictions. The set was put by air express in order to get to Anaheim at the earliest possible moment. Although the set received is to used for demonstration purposes only, the company will provide it in sufficient quantities to permit immediate general sale, and orders are being accepted. The radios are on display in windows of Narath Sound and Music company now. Anaheim Man's Kin Curiously Injured in Utah Deer Hunt Herbert Warren of Yorba Linnephew of Aksel Oas of Anaheim, remains in a critical condition in a hospital at Salina, Utah, after being accidentally injured October 21 while deer hunting. Reeled in brush, Warren was taken for a deer by a youthful deer-hunter from Salt Lake City, and shot in the left shoulder. The bullet, deflected by a bone, died dangerously near the heart, pinned the spine and lodge in women's back. The slug was reeled, after the wounded man been carried by his hunting dog. Reporter Visits Salvation Army, Finds There's Romance in Second Hand Goods There's romance in a second-hand store. Echoes of laughter long stilled; reflected joys of past Christmases and birthdays now forgotten; these and myriad other happy and unhappy things and events since gone into that dim limbo of all that once was, but is no more, mingle with the dust and rust and faded colors time has brought to the vast hodge-podge that fills the bins and boxes and shelves, and spills over onto tables and counters and floors. This nosey reporter dropped in at the Salvation Army store on East Center street one day recently, and there, by courtesy of—and incidentally, under the watchful eye of—its manager, Mrs. Lily Johnson, wandered at will, prying into nooks and corners, visioning, from the orderly array of things that are, the things that once were. Here, a couple of baby cribs, once gleaming white, now faded with time and baby finger smudges. There, a pair of baby buggies—companions of the cribs, perhaps, when the happy arrival of a tiny new member of the family took place. Reflected Beauty That long-handled hand mirror—a gift from some ardent swain, eager to express his love of a fair face and a fairer form? That well-worn baseball glove—a first baseman's smack, memory reminds us—those scuffed, spiked football shoes; what cheers from throats of excited rooters must have bounced off their tough hides in days agone! Maybe they even helped turn seeming-certain defeat into thrilling victory for the glory of dear old Siwash college. Gimcracks, gee-gaws, even dodas—all blend into the general scheme of arranging the stock of a second-hand store, mingling with such prosaic and glamourless articles as shoes and shirts, pots and pans and dishes and tools. Bright bits of silks and satins all tell of sewing bees of the past; boxes of small tiles: somebody remodels a bathroom? Books, with that dead smell only old books have; furniture that has seen its best days, but still possess years of usefulness, and such odds and ends as toys, once fondly handled by tiny hands at Christmas time, garish book ends, chipped vases, costume jewelry, pocket one remaining men's pair of dice, and this and those, though almost tire list of contents in a der catalogue. Yes, a second-hand shop is made up of a lot of dreams and past events; it requires the same thing said is necessary to make a home: "a heap o' living."

Tackle to Remain Scarce Till Spring Washing tackle, especially that signed for use in fresh water, remain scarce in southern California until next spring, dealdeclare. Easting rods are especially conduous by their virtual non-exence. The few new reels to be are largely imports from Canada, and the duty makes them rather high in price, although purchasers who have used the are strong in praise of their mechanical perfection. Private rod makers are being neged by tackle-hungry friends, due to the supply of bamboo matesis meeting a ready demand. The meantime, bidding for rods and reels remain brisk.

Yes, a second-hand store stock is made up of a lot of vanished dreams and past events—in short, it requires the same thing the poet said is necessary to make a house a home: "a heap o' livin'." From the Auld Sod There's interest tucked away in that store the Salvation Army operates on Anaheim's principal business street, and not the least of it breathes with the little lady who "keeps" the store. Born in the "North of Ireland," in Belfast, she joined the Salvation Army there 40 years ago. When she came to America two years later, she transferred her membership to Fresno, where she made her home with her uncle, pastor of a Methodist church. Mrs. Johnson came to Anaheim 12 years ago and has operated the store that entire time. It is one of more than a half-dozen the Salvation Army conducts throughout Orange county, under direction of Major Ellison of Long Beach. The local store has occupied its present location at 230 East Center street 10 years. The stores are operated as a part of the Salvation Army's social service work, and Mrs. oJhnson is entirely "sold on" the idea that they fill a need that is real and urgent. "Even during war years, but more so in normal times, we provide things that some people otherwise could not have," she declares, with conviction. "Not everybody had a war job with big wages while the war was on." Derived from Charity Everything in the store is donated. After being repaired and renovated, the articles are resold at a very narrow margin of profit, to pay expense of handling, rather than to return to profit to the Salvation Army, Mrs. Johnson said. In the past, two men were kept busy gathering things people in the various communities gave, and hauling them to the stores. This has not been possible in recent years, and now calls are made only in response to direct offers of donations. Yes, there's romance in any second-hand store, and not the least supply of it is to be found in Anaheim's Salvation Army store—not only romance, for that matter, but utility, as well, and often the articles to fill a real need, not otherwise obtainable.

News about people is what makes a newspaper interesting Plant Cover Crops In Orchards Now Winter cover crops, preferably legumes, will help maintain the humus or organic matter content of orchard soil. This is the time of year to plant them, now that the fruit harvest is over in valencias. Not only do cover crops add organic matter, but the roots open many soils so that irrigation water and rainfall will penetrate more rapidly, says Harold E. Wahlberg, Orange county farm advisor. The right kinds of cover crops should be planted so that the crop will mature early enough in the districts where planted to give good tonnage and be turned under when the soil is ready for spring cultivation. Quick-rooting types are desirable on hillside plantings to retard erosion. Greatest protection to the soil will result if these crops are planted and irrigated to produce growth before the rainy period starts. A circular prepared by Farm Advisor Wahlberg, "Cover Crops for Orchards" is available, free, at the agricultural extension service office, room 220, Ramona building, Santa Ana.
