HAIL JUNIOR EBELL GUEST NIGHT,
TUESDAY, AS 'BIG SUCCESS'
More than 160 persons enjoyed the annual Junior Ebell guest night, Tuesday evening in the Ebell clubhouse. Following a banquet style dinner a vocal program and ballroom dancing were featured. Mrs. Paul Winsor, club president, welcomed members and guests and introduced the executive board during the affair.
The dinner, catered by Dorothy Parker of Dorothy and Wade's restaurant, was served at long banquet tables decorated in a clever winter carnival theme. Tiny skiing figures swung down miniature snow banks, between appropriate small trees.
Special guests introduced included Mr. and Mrs. Tex Middleton, Junior club advisor and her husband, and Mr. and Mrs. Joe Van Wagoner, Senior Ebell club president and her husband.
Soft melodies were interpreted during the dinner hour by the rhythm section of Joe Bill's popular orchestra, under the direction of the talented Bill of Fullerton. A well contrasted program for dancing was interpreted later in the evening by the group. Vocals were presented by members of a popular Fullerton Junior college quartet comprised of John Lempke, second bass; Jerry Troutman, first bass; Rollo West, first dozen western ballads in addition to the two mentioned above, so of which have been accepted in publication.
As a child, she sang with two sisters on a youngster’s ragtime program in Santa Ana. She discovered as adult radio talent by George Wilhelm, ragtime commentator and disc jockey station KFVD who heard record several songs at a studio there for her husband’s Christmas present, a year ago.
Mr. and Mrs. Jones reside 5831 Third avenue, Los Angeles. She attended schools here.

Vocals were presented by members of a popular Fullerton Junior college quartet comprised of John Lempke, second bass; Jerry Troutman, first bass; Rollo West, first tenor, and Ronny Troutman, second tenor or baritone.
Enthusiastic applause greeted the quartet’s renditions and solos by Ronny Troutman who has sung professionally at the Trianon ballroom, the Ambassador hotel, with Jimmy Zito’s orchestra and the famous Horace Heidt. Mrs. Ray Ortez, program chairman, introduced the vocalists.

RETURNS TO COLLEGE IN DILLION, MONTANA
John Brown, eldest son of Mrs. Alberta Brown Patton of 1011 East Broadway, left here last weekend for State Normal college in Dillion, Montana, after spending the Christmas and New Year’s holidays with his family. An alumnus of Anaheim Union high school, class of 1947, he is majoring in drama and voice. He was heard in the fall of 1946 over station KVOE, Santa Ana, in the student talent production, “Peck’s Bad Boy,” directed by Don Britton of Olinda. Many Anaheimers viewed Brown in the Anaheim Community Chest benefit “The Dead Sister’s Secret,” produced by Miss Harriet Samon, that winter.
BABY DAUGHTER
Mr. and Mrs. Jack Richard of 1131 West Broadway, became the proud parents of a baby daughter Friday at the Anaheim hospital. The tiny miss weighed six pounds.
Record Concerns Using Tunes By Former Resident
A former Anaheim resident is credited with the writing of a top western tune, it was learned this week by the Gazette. She is Anne Jones (nee Anne Mathews), a vocalist heard on Spade Cooley time, station KFVD, Los Angeles, almost nightly between 10 o’clock at night until 2 o’clock in the morning. The song, to be released later this month, is “Atom Bomb Baby.”
Mrs. Jones is known over the air as “the little girl with the big guitar, who writes songs, plays and sings them.”
Another of her tunes, to be released Friday, by another nationally known record company, is entitled “Thinking and a’Drinking.” She has composed more than a work and stage diagrams for her book, “The Wise Old Mother Goose,” which is recently off the press. Many articles by her have appeared in the American Dancer Magazine.
The dance, rich with Mother Goose lore, was first produced and presented for the Dancing Masters of America during a meeting at the Huntington Hotel in Pasadena. It was given also at the University of Southern California in a one hour demonstration before the institution’s folk dancing department.
Following its publication in book form, “The Wise Old Mother Goose” earned for Mrs. Martin an honorary membership in the International Mark Twain Society, of whom Booth Tarkington is the American representative and Winston Churchill, the English. She is an honorary member of The Eugene Fields Society, National Association of Authors and Journalists.
Lois Ellyn, one of the dancers to appear in the beach city production, has, for a year, been a featured ballerina with the Mia Slavenska Ballet, which will appear March 29 in Fullerton. Miss Ellyn received her technical training in ballet from Mrs. Martin at the Richards-Martin studio here.

Eckert as the speaker for the next regular meeting which will be held in the high school auditorium on the evening of Tuesday, January 27th.

Two miles at the Los Angeles end of the freeway which will extend through Orange county to Santa Ana has been thrown open to the public. Representing little mileage, the section now open to the public is the most costly part of the project and it will enable Orange county motorists to avoid the most tedious and dangerous part of the drive to and from Los Angeles. The section begins at a junction with Ramona boulevard at the east end of the Aliso street bridge in Los Angeles and extends to Soto street north of the Sears Olympic boulevard store.
Acquisition of right of way and construction of this section totaled about $4,000,000.
A baby son was welcomed by Mr. and Mrs. Chester E. Bryant of P.O.Box 222, Yorba Linda, at the Santa Ana Community hospital on Monday. The infant weighed seven pounds, one and one-fourth ounces.
