Anaheim Gazette by JOHN S. NEUBAUER HALLOWEEN—Anaheim is already in a festive mood. The spirited Festival and Fair Queen contest is drawing considerable interest. Velma Neuman and Joan Henson are in the lead. Eileen June Garcia and Elaine Newton are close behind. Any one of these girls would make a representative Anaheim festival queen and to earn television and radio appearances together with the eight-day trip to Mexico City. But what kind of an honor is that one where the queen gets her picture taken with Sheriff Eugene Biscaliz at the Los Angeles City hall steps. That sounds as a bid for metropolitan newspaper publicity. Ralph Rouland is to be congratulated on the fine way he handled this year's Hallowe'en Whiskerino. He certainly has created a lot of interest in letting the chin-whiskers grow. A lot of Anaheimers look more distinguished behind the brush, it seems. The winners of the whiskerino should get a free trip to Knott's Berry Place Ghost Town where they'd be right at home in the atmosphere of the Old West. Jim Wood is back in town. He organized his community fair idea right here in Anaheim several years ago. The former owner of the 101 Wild West circus and rodeo, really is doing something for the respective communities in King George Opens Commons House LONDON (UP)—King George VI opened the new House of Commons building today, dedicating it "as a sign to the world of our faith in freedom." The King spoke in Westminster Hall, another section of the great palace in which Parliament meets, because one of the freedoms of the House of Commons—that of meeting without interference on its grounds—opened him from the building itself. Crowds lined the railings outside the building. The public galleries were filled with spectators long before the first ceremonial sessions in the new house began. Members of Parliament themselves began arriving before dawn. Prime Minister Clemens opened a House session before the King's speech with a not lessening these spirits as a source of inspiration in years to come. They comprise many races, but they all belong to one great democratic family," the mold made by the leader said. Conservative Winston Churchill, wartime leader who was Prime Minister when the old House was bombed, recalled that "I was the last person to speak here until today." With whimsical humor, he noted that a voting cataclysm turned him out of office but "here we all are again and if everything is not entirely to our liking, we have at any rate much to be thankful for." Churchill was interrupted by cheers as he expressed the hope... the chin-wishers grow. A lot of Anaheimers look more distinguished behind the brush, it seems. The winners of the whickerino should get a free trip to Knott's Berry Place Ghost Town where they'd be right at home in the atmosphere of the Old West. Jim Wood is back in town. He organized his community fair idea right here in Anaheim several years ago. The former owner of the 101 Wild West circus and rodeo, really is doing something for the respective communities in which his attraction appears. In fact, his community idea is so good that his competitors have "stolen" his idea. PROFILES—Oscar Stone is an Anaheimer who has a job to do and who does it. Men like Oscar Stone are the salt of the earth; steady, reliable, courageous and always willing to serve. It is seldom that you read about such people who are always doing their little bit to build for a bigger and better Anaheim. Oscar Stone, and the men like him, are the men who make Anaheim the fine place it is. SO IT GOES—Earl Warren, governor of California, regretted that he was unable to take part in the Anaheim Hallowe'en Parade, owing to campaign commitments. Then Hopalong Cassidy Bill Boyd found it impossible to keep his date for the Anaheim event. It seems that the television movie cowpoke has a commitment with the Mayo Clinic. Hollywood rumors have it that Hoppy didn't want the services of a stand-in for one of his rough-and-tumble scenes. He did it himself. The action called for the heavy to hit Hoppy on the nose. He did. It broke. The Mayo doctors had a job. Instead of the idol of the microwaves, the Range Busters—Dusty King, Alibi Terhune, and Crash Corrigan—will serve as grand marshals of the annual Anaheim parade. Vic Ruedy, the genial superintendent of La Palma Park, is doing everything humanly possible to make the Community Fair a success. Vic and his crew are cooperating in every way possible with Frank Cjickarella, the head canvas man and former pre-TV wrestler. PERSONALITY—William G. Tokar is an outstanding Anaheimer. The TV engineer for an LA station is helping to pioneer a vast new entertainment field. George is an Anaheimer. He might be able to live closer to his work in Los Angeles, but he is happy and content to fight traffic, be wartime leader who was Prairie when the old House was combed, recalled that "I was the last person to speak here each today." With whimsical humor, he noted that a young cataclysm turned him out of office but "here we all are again and if everything is not entirely to our liking, we have at any rate much to be thankful for." Churchill was interrupted by cheers as he expressed the hope that a similar "covenant, flexible yet enduring relationship" to that of the British Empire "may some day be expanded to cover all races and peoples of the world in sensible and unbreakable association." Ministers, members of parliament and many old grads," no longer members of parliament but invited back for the day, had entered the chamber through a fire-breakened arch or battered stones. It is called "Churchill Arch" as a memorial to the wartime Prime Minister and was built of stones salvaged from the wreckage of the old building, which was blitzed in 1941. King George, physically forcing his words in the manner he learned while conquering stuttering, spoke eloquently. "Not for us the silence of suppression," he said. In other places liberty has perished, but the voice of true democracy is still heard among all our peoples and is a comfort to all those who love and believe in the untettered expression of honest opinions and noble aspirations, and sincere human feelings." "Of all the bonds which unite my peoples," the King said, "none is stronger than our common devotion to the ideals of freedom, justive and toleration which, in the political sphere, find their supreme expression in our parliamentary system." Hellyer Renamed To GM Civic Post General Motors has announced that K. F. Hellyer, local Buick dealer for the past five years, has been reappointed to serve the next year as GM community relations chairman for Anaheim and the vicinity. As GM's community relations chairman, Mr. Hellyer, well known locally for active interest in community activities, also will be in a position to cooperate with club groups, the schools, or any other local organizations which may find PERSONALITY — William G. Tokar is an outstanding Anaheimer. The TV engineer for an LA station is helping to pioneer a vast new entertainment field. George is an Anaheimer. He might be able to live closer to his work in Los Angeles, but he is happy and content to fight traffic, because Anaheim is a friendly home-town community in which one feels safe to rear children. HUMOR—Harold (Skeets) Gregg. the baseballler, is a tall, powerfully built man who has blazed the name of his home town—Anaheim—across the sport pages of the nation. He pitched ball for Pittsburgh and Brooklyn of the National league. Skeets has a sense of humor. He likes to tell about the time that his wife was going out to the ball park to see him work. She took Pebbles, their son, and headed for the park. When she got there, the ball game was going on. She looked for Skeets. He wasn't anywhere around. By the time she got to the ball park, Skeets had been in the ball game, knocked from the box, showered and on his way home. REMEMBER—Beauty is where you find it. RAINMAKING MONEY GRANTED LOS ANGELES (P)—The Board of Supervisors has granted a $5000 appropriation, which it previously turned down, for rainmaking in Antelope Valley. A group of farmers is to match the amount. They hope that cloud-seeding will double rainfall in the valley this winter. General Motors has announced that K. F. Hellyer, local Buick dealer for the past five years, has been reappointed to serve the next year as GM community relations chairman for Anaheim and the vicinity. As GM's community relations chairman, Mr. Hellyer, well known locally for active interest in community activities, also will be in a position to cooperate with club groups, the schools, or any other local organizations which may find the General Motors material of interest for use in the development of programs. General Motors also is the sponsor of the National 4-H Club safety contest and Dir. Hellyer will be able to aid local 4-H clubs which have members participating in that contest. Jackie Coogan Tabbed for Fair Jackie Coogan, of movie fame, will be on hand all day Saturday at the Anaheim Appliance booth at the fair, it was announced today. Coogan will be there to display the Stanthony Ventamatic fume disperser, an appliance designed for use on gas ranges. The Stanthony is carried in Anaheim by Anaheim Appliance. Saturday evening, Coogan will MC the talent show. "HEIL" LEADS TO JAIL BERLIN—(P)—A West Berlin court recently convicted Erich Waltbach, 51, on a morals charge, and gave him a one-year suspended sentence. When the judge told him he could go home now, Waltbach gave the Nazi salute and shouted "Heil Hitler." The court changed its mind then and let Waltbach stay in jail for three more days, for contempt of court. Van Nuys Vet Hospital Move OK'd WASHINGTON (UP)—The transfer of hospital patients from Van Nuys to Long Beach, Calif., last June was justified, reports the president's committee on veterans medical services. The move was justified, the committee reported yesterday, "on the basis of consideraole monetary saving to the government with no lessening in standards of medical care." Much of the criticism of the move, stated the report, could have been avoided if the paraplegic patients at the Van Nuys hospital "had been adequately indoctrinated as to the reasons for such a move." By presidential order the Birmingham general hospital at Van Nuys was closed last June 1 and the patients transferred to the former Naval hospital at Long Beach. The Van Nuys hospital site was chosen for a new 1000-bed neuropsychiatric hospital. The committee report said the bureau of the budget and the veterans administration found that considerable money could be saved by the change. The committee appointed by the president to make a study of the situation consisted of Dr. Howard A. Rusk, chairman; Dr. Arthur S. Abramson and Robert L. Dennis. The report stplegics themselves good citizens they to accept the chaproven to them produced a consol for the governmen provision has bee ture emergency hospital care,'said At the time it that a number o plegics had built 2 PKGS. 9c BANGO POPCORN 15c 10 OZ.

The report stated the paraplegics themselves said that "as good citizens they were willing to accept the change if it were proven to them that the move produced a considerable saving for the government." "Adequate provision has been made for future emergency out-patient and hospital care," said the committee. At the time it was complained that a number of the 126 paraplegics had built homes in the vicinity of the Van Nuys hospital and were attending the University of California at Los Angeles. "Those out-patients still live near the school and are able to attend as before," the committee reported. "Two or three of the patients who are still hospitalized and who are attending school have had to curtail their programs as it requires one and one half hours of driving each way through heavy traffic." "The complaint that the climate at Long Beach is inferior of Van Nuys is not medically significant." One of the basic statements made by paraplegics, said the report, was that they should live close to the center to receive emergency care. "Because of the fact that over 400 paraplegics have already been discharged from this hospital, and only 126 of these dischargees had settled in its close vicinity, this reasoning can not be construed as the general opinion of all paraplegics," the committee stated.
