MARIE WILSON DIVORCED
LAS VEGAS, Nevada (LP) — Bosomy Marie Wilson of the radio and movies won a divorce today from Allan Nixon in a closed hearing. They were married in 1942 here. Cruelty was the charge in her complaint., but there were no specifications.
Mrs. Leo Picard, of Church Point, Louisiana, says the cooking some women do with fancy new stoves and so forth may be easier but one certainly doesn't get the same results. Mrs. Picard says for an honest-to-goodness "old-fashioned meal," the kind that puts a man in trim to do farm work, she'll take old-fashioned cooking methods every time. Mrs. Picard further says that since she has been taking HADACOL she doesn't have a bit of trouble cooking for her whole family and doing her chores about the house for she found that by taking HADACOL her system overcame deficiencies of Vitamins B1, B2, Niacin and Iron, which HADACOL contains.
Here is Mrs. Picard's own statement: "About six months ago I began having nagging aches and pains. I had a very hard time getting my work done—watching my two little daughters, keeping the house clean and doing all the cooking. I had lost my appetite and I could hardly get any sleep at all. Finally I was forced to go to bed and my sister had to do my housework. I felt terrible. I then heard about HADACOL and Anaheim and Fullerton chapters of the Royal Arch Masons conducted a joint installation of officers for the coming year last night at Masonic hall in Fullerton.
Installing officer was C. Stanley Chapman of Fullerton, past Grand High Priest of the State of California. Installing Marshall was Neil Rogers of Downey, inspector of the 26th district of Masons.
Ted Kuchel, publisher of the Gazette, was installed as High Priest of the Anaheim chapter and Charles M. Brawley as High Priest of the Fullerton chapter.
Other officers of the Anaheim lodge installed were: Francis Nipper, King; John V. Thompson, Scribe; Victor LaMont, treasurer; Fred LeRoy Marsh, secretary; LeRoy Howard, chaplain; Leonard Smith, captain of host; George E. LaFollette, principal sojourner; Ernest Bullock, Royal Arch cap-tain; Jack Kerr, Master Veil; Bird V. Beebe, Master Veil; Joe Critchfield, First Veil and Oscar Sentinel.

They are among 21,000 doctors registered in the first medical call last Oct. 16.
Dr. Meiling said the second priority group embraces doctors with the same qualifications as the first group, but who served between 90 days and 21 months. He predicted some of them will be called. They also are registered.
The third group contains doctors who did not serve in World War Two or since.
In the fourth group are war veterans.
These groups are the ones who must register Jan. 15.
Dr. Meiling said only aliens and doctors who are regulars in the armed services or who are reserve medical officers will not have to register next month. Gen. Hershey immediately sent telegrams to all state selective service directors alerting them for the Jan. 15 registration.

Here is Mrs. Picard's own statement: "About six months ago I began having nagging aches and pains. I had a very hard time getting my work done—watching my two little daughters, keeping the house clean and doing all the cooking. I had lost my appetite and I could hardly get any sleep at all. Finally I was forced to go to bed and my sister had to do my housework. I felt terrible. I then heard about HADACOL and how other folks were feeling wonderful because of HADACOL. In just three weeks' time I could tell a difference. I get a wonderful night's sleep and, best of all, I now have a fine appetite. HADACOL is certainly wonderful. I have told all my neighbors how really wonderful HADACOL is."
Yes, You Should Try HADACOL... as have thousands of others whose systems lacked Vitamins B1, B2, Iron and Niacin. The HADACOL formula is so effective for aches and pains and a general run-down condition when they are due to such deficiencies in your system.
Make up your mind to give remarkable HADACOL a chance to help you as it has helped thousands of others whose systems lacked Vitamins B1, B2, Niacin and Iron. Remember, there are no substitutes for HADACOL. Always insist on the genuine HADACOL. No risk involved. Buy a bottle of HADACOL, either the trial size, $1.25, or the large family or hospital size, $3.50, and if HADACOL does not help you, your money will be refunded. If your druggist does not have HADACOL, order it direct from The LeBlanc Corporation, Lafayette, Louisiana.

Bethel Baptists Schedule Special New Year Service
Bethel Baptist church, Broadway and Lemon, will observe a Watchnight Service at 11 p.m. A Communion service will be held and the hand of fellowship extended to a group of new members.
Regular evening service, at 8:30 p.m., instead of at 7:30 p.m., will feature a baptism. Between these two evening services, ladies of the church will serve refreshments and a time of social fellowship will be held in the lower auditorium.
In the morning service at 10:45 a.m., the pastor, the Rev. R. Schilke, will give his last message in his series on Peace, "The Peace of Christ." The Sunday School commences at 9:30 a.m., and is well attended by young and old.
‘Christian Science’ Sunday Theme
"Christian Science" will be the Sunday Bible Lesson subject in all branches of the Mother Church, the First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston: The Golden Text is from John: "When he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth; for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak; and he will show you things to come."
Communists Seize U.S. China Prices And Bank Deposits Set at $1 Billion
HONG KONG (AP)—Communist China yesterday seized all United States property and froze all U.S. bank deposits, the Peiping radio said today.
The red premier-foreign minister, Chou en-Lai, announced the seizure in retaliation for similar U.S. action on Dec. 16. He called the United States' action an "attempt to loot the Chinese people of their property."
(A high commerce department official in Washington estimated the seizures would total "considerably less than $100,000,000." He said most U.S. property in China was seized when the reds took over in 1949.)
An unofficial translation of Chou's order follows:
"1. The local people's government shall control and inventory all property of American government and American enterprises. They may not be transferred or disposed of unless authorized by the military and administrative commissions. In case of provinces and municipalities which are under the direct jurisdiction of the central people's government transfers and disposal be authorized by the economic commission council. The owner in charge of the property responsible for protec properties and shall cause damage to them."
2. All American private deposits with ritory of the people' China shall be frozen expense to maintain chants and the livinguals may only be with approval by the local government. The ambe be regulated by the economic commission council in a separate case.
Sentiment here gives that the seizure per complete the driving of missionary establish oil companies and the financed Shanghai U

be rearmed because the U.S. is the lesser of two evils. "The Germans do not like us, but they like Russia less." Japan's rearmament program will be held up because of politics, Major Beyers stated.
Tomorrow morning work on the Optimist Boy's clubhouse will be resumed. Harwood Larson reported that $4500 would be the minimum cost of construction of the walls alone if done by a construction company. By building themselves the complete cost of the building will be approximately one eighth of the cost of the usual building of its type. Total expenditures will be about $3500.
Special notice should be given Fred Aguirre and Eddie Gonzales of Placentia. They are both working on the project and accepting only a token of payment.
In the absence of President Tom Yellis, Harwood Larson presided over the meeting last evening. A raffle was held for member's neckties. The two most beautiful ties were given Gonzales and Aguirre. Hursel Snyder was elected Man-of-the-Hour, and underwent the usual grilling. Snyder is a salesman at Cone Brothers.
President Tom Yellis was congratulated on his arrival later in the evening for his election as director of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce.
Louis and Harwood Larson were proposed to the executive council of North Orange County Boy Scouts. Oscar Lieb and Tom Yellis were proposed as council-man-at-large.

Begins Lightly
MacArthur said the assault in the Yongpo area began lightly with U.N. troops dispersing 100 reds in the initial attack. Later, a regiment of communists was thrown at the Allied troops and ground was lost.
A briefing officer at U.S. Eighth Army headquarters said one Allied unit was thrown back 10 miles. Another battalion lost three miles.
Air observers reported mounting evidence of Chinese and North Korean forces moving up toward the battlezone.
Ridgway, Eighth Army commander, imposed tight restrictions on pinpointing any units of his huge force at this time.
While the lid was screwed a little tighter on news in Korea by the Allied command, the red radio at Pyongyang broadcast that United Nations forces had suffered losses of men and war materiel in the Kangwon area on Dec. 24 and 25.
Red Report
"The people's forces operating in the Kangwon province inflicted blows upon the enemy's powerful units in the area south of the 38th Parallel on Dec. 24 and 25 with immense results," the radio said.
"According to a part of the war records, our forces inflicted about 320 casualties upon the enemy forces and captured about 110 troops in the said actions."
MacArthur quoted the enemy report in his communique.
U.S. Far East Air Forces and Fifth Air Force fighters and Bombers kept plugging at the communists near the red front. Towns harboring enemy men and supplies were blasted Korea.

central people’s government, such transfers and disposals should only be authorized by the financial and economic commission of the state council. The owners and those in charge of the property shall be responsible for protection of the properties and shall in no way cause damage to them.
“2. All American public and private deposits within the territory of the people’s republic of China shall be frozen. Necessary expense to maintain lawful merchants and the living of individuals may only be withdrawn upon approval by the local people’s government. The amounts are to be regulated by the financial and economic commission of the state council in a separate order.”
It was not clear whether the “separate order” would be a general ruling on all U.S. assets or would deal separately with each case.
Sentiment here generally was that the seizure perhaps would complete the driving from China of missionary establishments, U.S. oil companies and the American-financed Shanghai Utilities co.

SACRAMENTO (AP)—Cities and towns of California have been urged by the state Civil Defense office to look for buildings which can be used as bomb shelters.
Maj. Gen. Walker M. Robertson, state civil defense chief, said it may be many months before communal shelters can be built and that basements of existing buildings could make good temporary shelters.
As soon as cities have selected and made available the temporary shelters, Robertson explained, they should post directional signs instructing citizens how to reach them.
Robertson said communities should also begin thinking about construction of individual, family-size shelters. The Federal government, he said, will soon come out with specifications for this type which can be built for less than $100.

Talbert Has Salt Water
YOU are next!
You recently have read of frantic efforts by farmers in the Talbert area to procure fresh water, their wells having become contaminated by salt water from the ocean.
The Talbert farmers have been overtaken by this creeping menace to our water supply. But it isn't just their problem.

There is only one known way to check this salt water front and push it back to the ocean. That is to raise fresh water levels five feet above sea level.

The Talbert farmers have been overtaken by this creeping menace to our water supply. But it isn't just their problem.
YOU are next!
There is only one known way to check this salt water front and push it back to the ocean. That is to raise fresh water levels five feet above sea level.
But we are not doing that. Instead of raising water levels we are lowering them by 24,000 acre feet a year, letting more and more salt water in.
Unless we reverse that process, we must move out.
On the ranches, your wells will pump salt-water — if they pump any. In the cities, the same thing will happen at your kitchen faucet.
There is only one practical solution. That is to import water from the Colorado river, through the Metropolitan Water District (MWD) as six Orange county cities and some of the rural area already are doing.
Forming the Orange County Municipal Water District is the first step along the way back to a secure supply. That district could get the Colorado river water which we MUST have, through MWD.
