Anaheim Gazette by JOHN S. NEUBAUER PERSONAL MENTION — George Mene figured in a spectacular auto accident near ANAHEIM, but the personable production controller didn't miss a day's work ... Kenneth McCloud, the former P-38 jockey, is a proud papa. He almost starved to death when he roasted on a rubber life raft in the shark-infested South Pacific during the war. A Zero knocked him and his P-38 out of the wild blue younder ... The bird also visited the Duane Fickels. He's the real estater who used to keep us posted on ANAHEIM sports ... Red Cookus, the ANAHEIM 20-30 major domo, is quite a spongeball fan. But like most, he'd rather play than watch ... Josh Seale, onetime ANAHEIM mortician, is quite a lover of hoss flesh. The late Sam'l D. Riddle plunked down five grand for one of the friendly undertakers' saddle breds ... Johnny Wagner loves a parade. The pleasant Placentian is in the same class as Leo Carillo and Eugene Biscalluz, the LA sheriff, where parades and hosses are concerned ... August Eltiste was another ANAHEIM who liked a parade. PROFILES—Polly Gonzales is a wide-awake, eager young man. At 11, he is far wiser for his years than most of his contemporaries of the same age. The ANAHEIM youth represents a new Latin-American culture that is progressive and intellectual in its approach to modern everyday problems. The youth of today is the citizen of tomorrow, and because of ANAHEIM youth like Polly Gonzales it will be a brighter tomorrow. DESERVED TRIBUTE — The Chamber of Commerce is planning a real hometown banquet sendoff for the National Guardmen who will be answering the call to the colors. Bud Fassel, who fought with the unit in the last fracas, comes forward with cash in hand to start a fund to buy each local Guardsman a lighter and shaving kit. That one should be snapped up. BUSINESS & FINANCE—Frederick R. Weisman, president of Hunt Foods, Inc., in a letter to the stockholders intimated that the company will operate at a profit this season. Weather conditions have affected major crops. Canners and freezers are faced with some shortages of raw products. Result: intense competition in the industry for tonnage.

Member how Lemon's dad, Jeremón, Fine and Dandy Musca, James S. Bouldin used to oc-cle the rightfield bleacher and Old Jersey used to go to aid of his boy when the going rough? That was about the time Big Ben Gelker was ing the issue at Olive. He had Sands, Fritz Guenther, Bill Riley, Floyd (Chisel) Hatfield, Ruly Heman. That was time when Al Schultz was ANAHEIM's leading keeper. What a bowier that man was! And Milt Varner did their stuff Bill Karam's eatery. Any who followed ANAHEIM athletics during the depression years never forget Ted DeVelbiss Kenny Dugan on the basket-floor. They were guards par lence. They played about time Noland Beat, Hank Ruiz, and Kenny Baker did. Dick Glover used to spend his free evenings on the court playing with the ANAHEIM schoolmasters. Glover was a sharpshooter. Twenty-five or 30 points a game wasn't unusual for him. He shot from anywhere and they swished through the net. REMEMBER—It's all right to keep up with the Jones if you don't try to pass them on a curve. Nurserymen say... by Orange County Nurserymen's Association "Amaryllis" to most people are the hybrids classed by botanists under the name of Hippeastrum. In this group the deep red and white forms are considered most desirable, simply because they are more rare than the really beautiful brick red form. Striped forms are also popular. Amaryllis balladonna is common in Southern California gardens but probably because of its abundance, as much as anything it is not very much sought after. It is usually a light pink, but occasionally white or red forms may be found. Hippeastrum plants are evergreen, while Balladonna Lily (also called Resurrection lily and Naked lady) produces numerous leaves in winter which die down in spring. The pink, very fragrant flowers appear from the bare ground in August. Hippeastrum flowers mostly in spring and summer and some varieties tend to bloom twice a year. Both the hybrids and Belladonna lily must have a warm protected location during the growing season. Any good garden loam soil will do, if well drained, but for the hybrids in pots a mixture of equal parts of loam, leaf mold, and coarse sand is used. Soil in open ground will probably be exhausted in a few years and small amounts of nitrogen fertilizer should be added and worked into the soil during fall. Moisture in the soil should always be available to the hybrids but the Belladonna lily will stand considerable drying out in early summer after the foliage dies down. Cultivation is usually not needed as long as the soil will take water. Hybrid Amaryllis bulbs are generally set in the spring when they are dormant, with soil up to the neck of the bulb. Belladonna lilies are best planted after blooming, are usually offered from September to November. If planted at other times, they may not bloom the first year or two. The X-ray was so called because its inventor, Wilhelm Rontgen, could devise no better name for what was then considered an "unknown quantity."

Go To Church Sunday Oddities of Unclaimed Estates To Go on State’s Auction Block SACRAMENTO (AP)—Would you like to buy a $100 Confederate bill? It’s been lying around the State Treasurer’s office—in a vault—for a long time and it’s for sale. The state’s going to have an auction of some 400 items. The date’s not yet been set, but it will be sometime in the next two months. California’s got that collection of personal belongings left by persons who died without heirs and state officials want to get rid of them. So the auctioneer’s chant will echo through the halls of the Capitol building. California has never had such a sale. Whatever money is made will go to the support of schools. Some of the items have been in the vault for 60 years. There’s a 103-piece set of silver. There are 50 watches. And this collection of jewelry left by a Chinese woman named Mee Yo who died in Tulare county on December 3, 1929: Diamond rings, gold earrings, gold lockets and golden coil bracelets. The auctioneer will also offer a $1 gold piece dated 1851, a pearl necklace—and a pair of scissors and some pocket knives. Then there’s a collection of Sixteenth and Seventeenth Century German books. One volume is: "The First Part of Prophets by Dr. Martin Luther." It was printed in 1575 in Jena, Germany. The books were left when Miss Elfreida Meinke died in San Francisco a decade ago. She willed them to relatives in Germany but World War II made that impossible. Now those relatives, state officials have found, are behind Russia's Iron Curtain. Some say Miss Meinke's books are worth $1500. Others say $150. At any rate, it is suggested around the Capitol, that $100 Confederate note is probably going for something like a song. Members of at least one group of present-day Indians in New Mexico are descendants of the cliff-dwellers who lived in what is now Mandelier National Monument.
