Serving Aboard Destroyer USS Boyle Now serving on the destroyer USS Boyle is Doctor Burnett Hurburt, Jr., chief electricians mate, 403 East Sycamore street, this city. A unique news highlight while he was aboard this ship, occurred the night of Nov. 5, 1943 when the misfortune of running out of fuel proved to be best-luck seen by the Boyle during her three years afloat. While on convoy duty off Algiers, the Boyle dropped out to refuel and the USS Beatty took her screening station. A few hours later the Beatty and two large transports were hit by German aerial torpedoes, and sank within 24 hours. Her luck continued during the invasion of southern France when, zigzagging into a bay before Cannes, she razed the enemy shore batteries control tower with three rapid fire salvos.

VFW Urges Surplus Priority for Vets Veterans priority over state and municipal governments in purchase of surplus war materials is urged today by Richard H. Newhall, California department commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars. Newhall said veterans should be given top priority over all but the federal government in surplus purchase.

Industry Into Turmoil Over Citrus Ceiling (Continued from Page 1) $5.25 for 200's; $4.50 on 220's; $3.75 on 252's; $3.00 on 288's; $2.22 on 344's, and $1.50 on 392's. MARKET FLUCTUATES "There is no established market at the moment," the spokesman commented this morning. "We simply must wait and see if the trade will take all sizes at ceiling, or just where the break will come. We hope the present is only a temporary situation. We believe it will result in better prices for small size oranges. Supplies are short, largely because of weather conditions and shortage of cars. There is a large orange crop to move, but it has been impossible to move it because of those conditions beyond our control. "The present situation is no fault of the packing industry. We wanted to hold prices down, but we simply couldn't do it." Lamps were in general household use in Greece by the fourth century B.C. Fire Chief Nyboe Uses Ingenuity In Lieu of Hose What easily could have developed into a major disaster was averted last Saturday morning through presence of mind of Fire Chief R. Nyboe. When a welder's torch punctured the gasoline tank of an automobile being repaired at Clementine and Chestnut streets, flaming gasoline spread over the ground. An explosion was possible. Appraising the situation upon arrival in a "dead heat" with the fire trucks, "Slim" grabbed a shovel and plastered a scoopful of earth against the tank, stopping the leak. It then was but a matter of seconds until firemen had smothered the flames with extinguisher apparatus. The automobile which belongs to Chet H. Brandt, 746 North Los Angeles street, escaped with minor damage to its exterior finish.

Two bills, both previously approved by the house, have passed the senate, awarding $3794 to county residents for damages incurred in airplane accidents. They now await presidential approval. One calls for $2900 for the Irvine company for destruction of a house and several orange trees when a navy plane crashed Dec. 14, 1943. The house was situated on Central avenue between highway 101 and Trabuco road and was occupied by Alva Thomas. The second bill awards $894 to Roy S. Councilman of Corona Del Mar for injuries sustained Aug. 8, 1944, when two planes "buzzed" a fishing boat and their backwash knocked him to the deck. Man Dead; Brother Hurt in Car Crash Juan Caldera, 20, East Los Angeles, was killed, and his brother, Monica, 24, was injured when their automobile sideswiped a truck loaded with soft drinks on Highway 101 near Irvine early Friday morning. George Steele, 38 of Puente, driver of the truck which was en route to San Diego, told highway patrolmen that the passenger car swung onto the left side of the road and struck his semi-trailer. Monica Caldera was thrown from the car, which was demolished. Old-Timer Gets Enjoyment From Birthday Issue Probably no old-timer among Anaheim citizens but has derived enjoyment from the Gazette's 75th anniversary edition, which made its appearance Dec. 6. Not least among them is W. H. (Bill) Houts; 681 North Los Angeles street, whose term of residence here is little more than half the life of this newspaper, but who has seen a lot of development in the little town to which he came more than 40 years ago and which has been his home since. Houts, a native of Junction City, Kan., first engaged in business in Anaheim as operator of a pool hall, which occupied the building.

Both types of bait are very effective, especially when applied to moist ground. Since one application does not kill these pests in all stages of development, applications should be repeated at weekly intervals now and again at the time vegetable seedlings are emerging. Slugs and snails can also be controlled by trap-ping them under boards where they seek cover during the day time. Some newspaper presses are capable of producing 300,000 copies an hour.
