An advance of several dollars a box was noted on scarce size, 200's and 220's but smaller sizes, 252's and smaller, making up 70 per cent of the crop, showed a decline when compared to prices of last week. A lack of interest in small fruit marked the decline in price on 344's and 392's, he said. "Weighted average on auction sales today for this district is about 35 cents per packed box less Have you any An advance of several dollars a box was noted on scarce size, 200's and 220's but smaller sizes, 252's and smaller, making up 70 per cent of the crop, showed a decline when compared to prices of last week. A lack of interest in small fruit marked the decline in price on 344's and 392's, he said. "Weighted average on auction sales today for this district is about 35 cents per packed box less than the average to date on all fruit sold in all markets," Skiles said. As lemons and grapefruit have been selling below OPA ceiling prices, effect of removing the price controls was not noticeable in their markets, he added. End Lutheran Conclave Here Concluded by a service conducted by the Rev. L. E. Elfert, pastor of the Zion Lutheran church, the four day Lutheran conclave ended here last week and some 225 delegates and church body officials were back at their former posts today awaiting next year's convention. Delegates addressed in the concluding sessions of the convention by the Rev. F. A. Hertwig of Detroit were told "today the cradle of the Reformation is in the most terrible predicament it has ever been in. "It is up to us to do something about it. The free churches in Germany which were a thorn in the flesh of Nazisim, are coming together; and it is up to us to help them." A resolution of thanks was extended by the convention to the White Temple Methodist church for use of their dining room during the meet. The bonds you bought two years ago, this month, have a special significance today. For in June, '44, the all-out attack on Germany had just been launched. Your bonds helped back that attack . . . helped bring about the final victory and the Peace you enjoy today. But they did something for you personally—something you may not have been fully aware of at the time. They gave you an investment for your future, Now, Back Your Future—BACKS, CAMPBELL and KAUF J. BEN KAULBARS, Opposite City Park, 251 North Lemon Street V. L. Huber New Owner of Wiseman's A metoritic service record which saw him rise from a private to a major is held by Victor L. Huber, new owner of the Wiseman Jewelry Store, 223 West Center street, formerly owned by Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Wiseman. A recently discharged veteran, Huber enlisted in 1941 and spent 37 months of active duty overseas, participating in the original invasion of Leyte Island in the Philippine liberation, the invasion of Hollandia and Binak Island, Dutch New Guinea, the Bismark Archipelago and many Philippine campaigns preceding the liberation. He flew to the United States to take a course in military government at Charlottesville, Virginia, and then studied Japanese at the University of Chicago. He was a captain at that time. Huber returned to Yokohama and Tokio and later went to Seoul, Korea, to participate in the military government of Korea. He was relieved from active duty in April at the Fort McArthur separation center, and is now a major in the reserve corps of the army infantry. Previous to his remarkable military career, Huber was associated with his father, John H. Huber, in the jewelry business at Yuma, Arizona, for 15 years, where he acquired a broad background of experience in all its phases. The Wisemans operated the jewelry store since 1928 when they purchased it from Arthur Cohen. After 51 years in the jewelry business in Kentucky and California, Mr. and Mrs. Wiseman, 809 North Lemon street, have retired to enjoy a life of leisure. Rabies Quarantine Extends to Stanton The rabies quarantine was extended to Stanton and surrounding areas as the county epidemic continued to spread this week. It is the sixth area in western Orange county to be placed under surveillance since the outbreak of the dread canine disease, with the number of infected dogs set at 25, according to Dr. Edward Lee Russell, county health officer, and Dr. John Bower, county veterinarian. Since the establishment of the quarantine in Westminster, five rabid dogs were discovered there, but not before they had been in contact with other dogs or humans. The first case of rabies in Stanton was that of chow dog. Later Robert Spencer, Anaheim pound master, discovered an ill greyhound, belonging to a Stanton family, which died in the local pound the same night. Areas quarantined with Stanton and Westminster include Manzanita colony south of Garden Grove, Buena Park and La Habra. Meanwhile reports from Westminster said fifty young turkeys, each weighing approximately six pounds, belonging to the Barney Taylor-turkey ranch were killed recently by two dogs belonging to a neighboring ranch at the intersection of Garden Grove boulevard and Hansen avenue. E. P. Hapgood was re-installed as secretary-treasurer with LeRoy Ater as vice president. Board members to serve for the ensuing year include L. E. Middleton, Richard Roehm, George Graham, LeRoy Ater, and outgoing president, Henry Walsworth. The group heard a humorous address by Los Angeles high school principal, Lloyd Prante, author of the book, "I Am A Family Man."
