Publishers of the Gazette are convinced there is a definite place in the newspaper field in this area for a newspaper which will concentrate on telling the story of local people, local events, local achievements, local problems—all with local pictures. To supplement this formula, the Gazette has been selected to represent the incomparable Associated Press in Northern Orange county. We will have the FULL AP service, news, features, and pictures. The weekly Gazette will convert publication with this issue—an octogenerian. But its devotion to the people of Anaheim, its important place in the affairs of this area, and its position of recorder of the eventful history of Anaheim will not be discontinued. In fact, publication of a daily newspaper will provide greater facilities and opportunities for us to broaden, improve, and carry on the tradition of the weekly Gazette. The mission of the new Gazette, as it was during the first 80 years of publication, will be only to serve the best interest of the good folks of the Anaheim area.
