Anaheim Gazetteer by JOHN S. NEUBAUER SUGGESTION—ANAHEIM has long been noted as being a progressive beautiful city of homes, churches and beautiful parks. ANAHEIMERS can justly pride themselves on living in a clean, prosperous community. There is no excuse why the ANAHEIM signs at the approaches to the city cannot be better maintained. Hundreds of visitors and thousands of motorists who pass through ANAHEIM see them daily. The sign on East Center street would be a disgrace to a less progressive, smaller community than ANAHEIM. It has been used for target practice. It is almost impossible to read the invitation; "Visit Our Beautiful Parks." Study the accompanying picture. Notice how the weeds run over the curb into the gutter and how beer cans litter the scene. That's far from being a good advertisement for ANAHEIM or any other progressive community. Can't something be done about it? PARDON THE ERROR—Typographical errors are a nuisance to the newspaper publishing business. Every now and then an error or two slips by the ever alert proofreader and gets into print. Generally such errors are annoying, but every now and then they're embarrassing to say the least. Last week, over in Fullerton, a linetyper accidentally hit a “d” instead of an “r” in setting up a box score. Naturally, that made all the difference in the world to freckled-faced, red-headed Felix Murfield because all of the kids started to call him MUDfield. He like it. His sister didn't like it. Did any of the Murfields lie?

Phone ANAHEIM 27 them up. Not only are they unslightly but they make you feel as if you are crossing a picket line to get into the stores. Often a well-intended scheme backfires. There is nothing quite as annoying as to go into a town and see unslightly, outdated advertising posters plastered on walls, posts and signboards. The customer who mentions those big white footprints is right. Those who were responsible for having them painted should have them removed. It is strange that with all the city ordinances, none has been written to curb some such ventures. ENLIGHTENING — ANAHEIM will get better acquainted with itself during the Hallowe'en Festivities. The Community Fair idea is a novel way of presenting the city under canvas. NEWSETTES—Frank Chiquerella, the head canvas man for the Pan Pacific Amusement Company—Community Fairs—is an old-time wrestler who has had a hundred-and-one interesting experiences. Postcard from a customer: "Here's an idea which isn't patented. If you want to make some money out of it, go ahead. Just manufacture a luminous shoe polish which will give people enough light to walk on ANAHEIM's dark streets at night. You're welcome." . . . Couldn't make out the signature . . .

REMEMBER—You can't judge a man by his looks alone. President Endorses Religious Educ. "Religious and spiritual foundations must be strengthened if the nation is to meet successfully its many problems." So wrote President Harry Truman in his endorsement of the 20th annual observance of Religious Education Week, scheduled for October 24-November 1, 1950. His endorsement was contained in a letter to Dr. Roy G. Ross, general secretary of the International Council of Religious Education, which sponsors the celebration along with its 40 member denominations and more than 800 affiliated state and community councils of churches. "Man cannot live by bread alone; and an over-preoccupation with material things will not take us on down the path towards genuine freedom, justice and happiness," the president observed. "The firmer grasp we have on the truths of both the Old and the New Testaments, the nearer we shall come to achieving our most democratic ideals." President Truman commended the week's theme, "Religious Teaching—Vital to the Nation." In sponsoring this observance, the International Council of Religious Education is performing a very real service," the Chief Executive added. Religious Education Week is celebrated each fall from Rally Day through Mass. Communion Sunday in thousands of communities and tens of thousands of churches throughout the United States and Canada. Its purpose is to demonstrate the importance of religious teaching. Anaheim-Katella REMEMBER—You can't judge a man by his looks alone. Officer Outlines CHP Job Offers It is possible for a young man in Orange county to take an examination for California Highway Patrol officer, leave for military service, and be appointed to a State job on his return, according to Ben Liebermann, County Service Officer. The State Personnel Board will accept applications for the post of State Traffic Officer until September 8, with the examination to be held in various parts of California on October 7. At the same time, interested young men are warned that neither the Highway Patrol nor the Personnel Board has any connection whatever with any schools claiming the ability to prepare applicants for the traffic officer examination. In fact, there is a distinct danger that money paid to such schools will be wasted. Applicants who pay for the course may later discover that they could never qualify under the rigid physical standards set up for this type of state job. Under State law a veteran whose name has been included on a certification for possible appointment to a state job may retain his place on the list while he is in service and for three years after his discharge, provided the military emergency is still in effect. There are cases on record of men who took the Highway Patrol examination in 1940, then went into Service in World War II, and were appointed to jobs in 1946 and 1947.

Local buyers were quick to seize the opportunity for purchasing some A-1 meat on the hoof.

RETURN TO USEFULNESS—Furniture reconditioned at the Salvation Army social service center serving in Anaheim district is being placed on the floor at one of the Army's thrift shops. Articles thrown away by the public are salvaged by the center as part of the program of rehabilitation for needy and handicapped persons carried on by the Salvation Army. Salvation Army Cites Urgent Need For Discarded Furniture Items Urgent need for discarded overstuffed furniture items in order to continue the Salvation Army's rehabilitation program this fall was told today by Brigadier Fred Ohrn, manager of the social service center serving the Anaheim district. Due to the great influx of needy families into this district, the Army's supply of upholstered articles has been depleted, Brig. Ohrn said. As a result, a general appeal to the public is being issued seeking donations of unwanted divans, sofa-beds, chairs, and other articles which are no longer of use to their owners. "It is only through the reconciliation of throw-away items that the Salvation Army social service center carries on the rehabilitation program for needy and handicapped persons," the center manager emphasized, "for the social service department solicits no cash donations." Residents may have castoff articles picked up at home or office by telephoning Anaheim 4631 and requesting the Salvation Army Red Shield truck to call, Brig. Ohrn said.
