AUHS Angles BY CARLUNE KORN Initiations were the main attraction at the Anaheim High school this week. Each year new and old clubs start their activities with the traditional initiation for the incoming members. Future Farmers held their induction Monday night in the Girls' Gym at 7. The first hour was filled with shocks, ice packs, and chills. Last hour was enjoyed with a pint of ice cream for each boy. Students were able to observe some of the Sub-Deb initiation on Tuesday. Girls were dressed in short skirts, silk stocking caps and carried limburger cheese. Formal dinner was held Thursday night in the Girls League room where they discussed the plans of the coming year. Toast was used as a necklace for a part of the Toastmasters Induction for new members on Wednesday of this week. A dust pan and broom was carried to pick up crumbs. Wednesday night at 6:30 all Toastmasters enjoyed an evening in the cafeteria. Second football game of the 1950 season for Anaheim gridders will be tonight at Citrus. Game time for B's is 6 andVarsity will follow at approximately 8. Boys have been working hard for a victory similar to last week's game in which they defeated Bell Gardens 25-0. The support of all townspeople and students are needed to help win this victory. Let's Go! A Fashion Show was sponsored by the Girls League Cabinet on Wednesday afternoon in the auditorium. Local dress shops, Clarice, Cotlers, and Lorettas furnished many lovely clothes. Models were students who were picked from each grade.

Models were students who were picked from each grade. All Tri-Hi-Y clubs met Tuesday night at 7 in the White Temple Church. Each club discussed the activities for the year and the responsibility for each member. Miss Virginia Oakley's craft classes visited the Kay Finch Ceramics Studio at Corona Del Mar yesterday. The trip was made by bus and a tour included seeing the molding, glazing, and baking of clay. Novelty animals are the specialty of the studio. Anaheim High's band used their new uniforms for the first time yesterday when they marched in the Fullerton Fall Festival. Twelve to 15 bands entered the festival which started at 3:30. Anaheim's band led the first division. Coming to California in 1912, Fluor's founder opened his first Pacific Coast office in Santa Ana, and later added an equipment yard at Anaheim. Entrance into the petroleum field led to the establishment of a cooling tower factory at Compton where Fluor's first model, known as "The Buddha," was produced and erected on Signal Hill in Long Beach. A further consolidation saw the removal of the Anaheim yard to Los Angeles when the company secured its present plant site. As business increased through the years, so did the number of employees which now total nearly 3000 in number. Anaheim residents employed at Fluor include W. Earln Dunn, vice-president and general manager of the engineering and construction division; Robert L. Merrick, manager of engineering; John G. Marshall, project engineer; Leonard W.

Martin, Three Wills Make Things Tough For Probate Judge LOS ANGELES (AP) — Where there's a will there’s a—but which way for a probate judge now confronted with three documents disposing of eccentric Charles Babo net's $500,000 fortune? The third will was filed yesterday—with reservations—by public administrator Ben H. Brown It is in the form of a rambling letter dated August 17, 1945 and addressed to "Dear Friend Abe" in pencil on four sheets of table paper. Brown said it was apparently mailed from Denver, Colo., with an accompanying letter from "Abe," who failed to identify himself or give an address. Brown told the court he was offering the will for probate with the reservation he could not yet determine if it was authentic. A Miss Betrica Reed was named as the chief beneficiary—for $200,000. The writer said he had met Miss Reed for an hour once in Richmond, Calif., but believed she had since moved to Denver. Other bequests included $35,000 to "Dr. Mel," who might be found in Colorado," and $15,000 each to Boys' Town, Neb., and Santa Barbara Mission, Calif. Opposed to this, Judge Newcomb Condee will have to consider Oct 19: Will No. 1—Filed by the Bank of American after it was found shoved under a door last month. This is the one that left the William Tyson family $100,000 for an act of friendship 31 years ago. It is dated Oct. 2, 1943. Will No. 2—Mailed to Brown from Sacramento, dated May 26, 1941, but torn in half so that its terms are virtually illegible. The three will have this in common: all were submitted anonymously. And all add to the mystery of Babonet the recluse who died last Aug. 7 at the age of 66 leaving oil riches never dreamed of by friends here.

NEUBAUER MAIL—There have been a number of interesting letters in the GAZETTEER's letter box—P.O. Box 501, ANAHEIM—but it isn't the kind of mail we expected. This column always welcomes newsletters about ANAHEIMERS. And what do we get? Requests for advice about life, love and stuff like that there. A columnist has a duty to perform, consequently the GAZETTEER departs from his usual format to a different kind of column today. Mr. Neubauer: I am 13 years old and my mother doesn't want me to use lipstick. Other girls do. Why shouldn't I? Don't you think my mother is too strict? —An ANAHEIM girl. Although the GAZETTEER isn't an authority on makeup, its use by adolescents seems superfluous. Makeup cannot add anything to the freshness of youth. It is a parent's duty to advise her child on the matter and the child should comply with her mother's wishes. The GAZETTEER's advice would be: Be natural—makeup is artificial and spoils your natural loveliness. Mr. GAZETTEER: I read your column every night in the paper and I want to get your advice. I am 15 years old and very much in love with Free Wills Make Mugs Tough Probate Judge ANGELES (AP) — Where will there's a—but which a probate judge now conwith three documents diseccentric Charles Babo00,000 fortune?

County Industry Establishment of a special eighth-hour "Product Distribution and Sales Institute" for management personnel of small industry in Santa Ana and Orange county was announced this week by Stuart Carrier, dean of the evening division at Santa Ana college. This series of four weekly meetings is sponsored by the Associated Chambers of Commerce of Orange county. Such topics as "Analysis of Potential Markets," "Tailoring Advertising to Sales Outlets," and "Effective Sales Management" will be discussed by experts in the field from a practical standpoint. John Frelburg, sales and advertising expert will be the instructor. A graduate of Columbia University with a Master's degree in Advertising, Marketing and Merchandising, Freiberg has been associated with the R. H. Macy Company and John Wanamaker Advertising co. of New York City. He has handled the advertising for over 26 major retailers and manufacturing firms and now has his own agency in Southern California. There is no charge for the course which will be conducted by the Santa Ana college evening division in cooperation with the State Department of Education's Bureau of Business Education. The opening meeting of the series of courses will be held at 7:30 p.m., on Tuesday, October 10, in the lecture hall A-1 at Santa Ana college, 17th and Bristol sts. All manufacturers, sales managers, advertising managers and other management personnel in Orange county interested in improving the distribution and sales of their product are invited to attend. NSGW MEETS TUESDAY Mother Colony Parlor No. 281 of the Native Sons or the Golden West will meet Tuesday at 8 p.m. at the Knights of Columbus hall. Speaker will be Albert McMillen past president of the Santa Ana Parlor and present district deputy to the Anaheim Parlor. There is now being shown at the Bowers Memorial Museum, 2002 N. Main, Santa Ana, a rare collection of lustre and antique glass. Lustre, the delight of discriminate collectors, is infrequently seen except in individual pieces or in small group collections. Of Hialeah's racing officials, Steward John B. Campbell, Starter George Cassidy and Timer Al Nun have worked at the track since the opening in 1925. Mr. GAZETTEER: I read your column every night in the paper and I want to get your advice. I am 15 years old and very much in love with a boy I met at the beach a couple of months ago. I used to date him all the time, but he hasn't come to see me for a week. I miss him a lot. I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't study. What should I do? A girl from Stanton Puppy love frequently leads to a dog's life. Infatuation is often mistaken for true love. It seldom it. Teen-age romances may often upset young folks, but they are hardly ever tragic. Boy meets girl; boy dates girl; boy forgets girl. That has been an age-old problem. Teen-agers as it seems from here, should get acquainted with various personalities before going steady. The GAZETTEER believes this young lady should look at life objectively and not let her emotions get the better of her. She should talk about these romantic inclinations with her mother or to her Sunday School teacher who would advise her. REMEMBER—Nothing is really as bad as it seems.

Eaker With ten days remaining in Southern California's Crusade for Freedom, reports from all counties indicated an overwhelming response in the mobilization of civilians to help fight the worldwide battle for men's minds. "Thousands of scrolls have been distributed to all parts of Southern California," declared Lt. Gen. Ira C. Eaker, USAF (Ret.), Southern California chairman for the Crusade. "It is hoped everyone will take advantage of the opportunity to become a part of this critical struggle." General Eaker urged citizens everywhere to make a point of signing the scroll in their own communities during final days of the Crusade, which ends on October 16. Mass enrollments were conducted last night in Imperial Valley when Actor John Lund addressed large group meetings in El Centro, Brawley and Calexico. He emphasized the urgent need for participation by everyone, pointing out that there can be no neutrality in the fight against communism. Today thousands of employees at the San Diego Naval Air Station began enrollment, while other industries in San Diego boosted the county total with in-plant campaigns. By last night—more than 20,000 signatures had already been turned in on scrolls circulated in San Diego and hundreds of scrolls were still in the hands of volunteer workers. School students throughout Orange county today were completing their enrollment, while service clubs in scattered communities presented scrolls to their members. Throughout the Southland many large manufacturing companies were following the example of O'Keefe and Merritt in Los Angeles, where 100 per cent of the 1113 employees signed the Freedom Scrolls and contributed to the fund for maintenance of Free Radio Stations channeling information behind the Iron Curtain. Riverside county reported scrolls containing more than 12,000 signatures had been turned in early this week, with distant communities still to complete enrollments.
