Veteran Center Report Shows 310 Interviews Continuing the excellent work of the Anaheim Municipal Veterans Information center, Ira A. Hodgkins, director in charge of this work, has submitted a very fine report to the city council as of April 1. A fairly new service to the veteran, this bureau has been of untold value to the service men reentering civilian life and problems facing each of them. During March, the information center held a total of 310 interviews with the following table showing the classifications made: employment, 37; schooling, 52; veteran loans, 50; income tax, 41; life insurance, 31; priorities, 22; Unemployment insurance was the problems of six veterans, while other men, numbering five, were seeking information on how to obtain some of the surplus commodities. Ration board problems were worked out for five other men; medical care, five; business opportunities, 4; employment offered, three; disability, three; mustering-out pay, two; lost discharge papers, one; war bonds, one; organizations, one; hospitalization, one, and draft board, one. The total since June 1, 1945, the date the veteran center was established, to date shows the total interviews conducted to be 2432.

Opened under New Management MIDWAY SERVICE STATION 101 HI-Way New Mechanic in Garage DELBERT HITTLE, Owner-Mgr. formerly Loyd and Boles Service Station Offieer Twenty Years on Force Last Monday, J. M. Pifer, desk sergeant at the city police department, observed his 20th year at the desk. Sergeant Pifer resides at 893 S. Lemon, with his wife, the former Rose M. Aul of Indiana, Pennsylvania. The Sarge has given his years freely to the people of Anaheim, and is steadfastly devoted to his adopted home town. Pifer has a daughter who is married to William Fackner of Anaheim. They now live in Torrance. The entire family was born in the home town in Indiana, and that was where the sarge was married to Rose, and where their daughter was born. Indiana, Pennsylvania, is the home of the noted film actor, Jimmie Stewart. Sergeant Pifer knew Jimmie when the actor was just a school boy and undoubtedly had quite a few happy times with him. Pifer was a postal clerk in the Pittsburgh post-office for ten years before he came to Anaheim. He came on the force as desk sergeant on April 8th, 1926, and has held that position ever since. Sergeant Pifer says that he is very happy in Anaheim, and has had a good life. We want Sergeant Pifer to know that the Gazette and the people of Anaheim are grateful to him for his fine work on the force, and for the good example that he has set as a useful citizen of our city. We wish the Sarge a continued happy life, and many more years service on the force. PUT SPRING IN YOUR MEALS Just as a perky new hat and bright flowered print—even if they're worn with a heavy coat and galoshes—brighten our winter-drab wardrobes, so a few dress-up touches to the old standby dishes will make spring seem more than just around the corner. Crisp slaw has no doubt given zip to your winter meals for many a month now, and it still would, if you weren't so tired of cabbage. But parsnips (believe it or not, even the don't like-parsnip gang, won't recognize this one) make delicious slaw. Grate 4 or 5 medium-sized ones, sprinkle with salt and celery salt and toss lightly with sour-cream dressing. It's an easy trick to serve minted pears with spring lamb, or pineapple with ham, thanks to your supply of canned fruit and to bottled mint extract and green coloring. Just pour the syrup off, flavor and tint, and then heat the pears or pineapple to boiling in the syrup. Let stand until cold and the shade of green you like. SPRING - LIKE DESSERTS: Though it will still be several weeks before real strawberry shortcake is anything but the rankest extravagance, here's one that will bring forth lots of lip-smacking, though it won't fool a soul, of course, into thinking it's the real thing. Start out by making 3 to 6 frying- Leaders Discuss Food Salvage BERKELEY, March 27—Representatives from many influential California groups, including consumers, farmers, labor, women's activities, schools, churches, and federal, state and local agencies will gather in the directors room of the California chamber of commerce, San Francisco, next Tuesday to consider what California can do in the national effort to conserve food for emergency famine relief in Europe and North Africa. Dave Davidson, California director of the field service branch, production and marketing administration will preside. Davidson was recently named by Secretary of Agriculture Clinton P. Anderson, as emergency food program director for California. Governor Earl Warren will represent the state government if possible, and other wisely designate a representative. George L. Levlson, San Francisco broker, until recently senior American official for European operations for the United Nations relief and rehabilitation administration, will give a brief account of distress conditions as he observed them abroad. By bobbing his head in a certain way, the sea gull shows other gulls the direction of a school of fish. Bank of America To Aid Veterans Following the recent U.S. government order directing building materials into channels for the construction of homes for veterans, Bank of America has announced a statewide program to retain over 1,000 members of its staff as specialists in veterans loans under the newly liberalized G.I. Bill. In addition, each of the bank's branches is to have a veteran's counsellor to whom veterans of World War II may turn for information on loans and other matters of interest to them. Local counsellor at the bank is Dick Gay. Declaring that "the veteran is getting a break in housing at last," Bank of America officers point out that the recent amendments to the G.I. Bill "took out the hocus pocus, eliminated the red tape and streamlined the procedure." It was further stated that under the new regulations the Bank of America is prepared to make loans to veterans on homes costing up to $10,000 without a down payment, provided the veteran complies with the requirement of sufficient income to take care of the payments, and appraisal shows that the property is priced in line with present day cost factors. SPRING - LIKE DESSERTS: Though it will still be several weeks before real strawberry shortcake is anything but the rankest extravagance, here's one that will bring forth lots of lip-smacking, though it won't fool a soul, of course, into thinking it's the real thing. Start out by making 3 to 6 frying pan-size pancakes. (If you haven't a pet recipe of your own, then try one of the packaged mixes.) Keep them warm in a slow oven (275 degrees F.), piling one on top of the other on a hot plate, filling between with the strawberry jam you made last summer or canned fruit or berries, the juice thickened a little with cornstarch. Sprinkle with powdered sugar or top with whipped cream. Cut in wedges and serve on heated plates. Sometimes what it takes to perk up a winter drab meal is a light-as-air dessert. Lemon or orange gelatin poured into stemmed sherbet glasses or small glass berry bowls while in the syrup stage and allowed to set and then topped with orange and grapefruit sections and soft custard sauce poured over all will convince one and all that the wind is only fooling. Evaporated milk production in California during 1945 exceeded 325 million pounds, an increase of over 16 million pounds as compared with 1944 and 84 million pounds above the 5-year average. At the peak of military operations in Europe Army engineers pumped an average of 3,800,000 gallons of gasoline daily to American troops.
