NEUBAUER
Your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.
—John 16:22.
YES, INDEED — Today is groundhog day, but don't take any stock in what the little critter does. He's nothing but a cousin to a gopher, anyhow.
SIDESHOW—Henry Chapman, the University of Texas swimming coach, really was a skeeterweight when he grew up hereabouts. The years haven't changed him much. Success has not gone to his head: he's proud to have been an Anaheimer ... Lou Wesellch may be a rugged two-fisted he-man, but he ain't no Frank Buck. 'Other day he tried to catch a little mouse bareheaded. He did, but couldn't hold on to the little creature. Y'see, it bit him.
Bob Martin is making an investment in Anaheim's future—he's building himself a $12,000 home.
HAS BIG JOB—Stanley Riley, the 20-30 club wheel, has a big job cut out for him. He'll have to break in someone to handle the details of the annual regional softball tournament.
NEWSQUIZ — What gets the greatest reader-interest in a newspaper? Leonard Kreldt, the Gaettee's photographer.
Lakey, who will speak on "Accepting the Challenge of Today," is widely recognized in Huntington Park as a civic leader, having won in 1947 the "man of the year" award of the Huntington Park Kiwanis club for outstanding service to the community.
Lakey is a member of the board of directors of the Huntington Park Chamber of Commerce and represents the organization as national councillor to the United States Chamber of Commerce in Washington, D.C.

He also takes active part in the Boy Scouts, YMCA, and church and lodge affairs in Huntington Park.
Today the inauguration assembly for new Fremont student body officers was held. Candidates who were elected last Friday were president, Sato Muro; vice-president, Mike Beach; secretary, Dorothy Thomas; and treasurer, Fred Fischle. Gary Bonner, the retiring president, presided at the assembly.
The program was concluded with a short movie, entitled, "County Hospital."
Old and new student officers met Thursday for the first meeting of the incoming governing body and the last meeting for the old.
First day of the second semester was Monday. Report cards were handed out Wednesday. Those pupils with no demerits on their record were dismissed from classes an hour early today.
A short movie on table manners was shown Monday noon to any who wanted to stay in out of the rain. "Miss Dunning Goes to Town" was shown last Friday to the eighth grade cooking classes.
The new semester has brought several changes in the studies of most of the students. Eighth grade art class.

NEWSQUIZ — What gets the greatest reader-interest in a newspaper? Leonard Kreldt, the Gazette's photographer-reporter, will tell you it's local newspapers. Pictures are a newspaper's biggest drawing card ... Speaking of newspapers, what do you think feminine readers read? Weather reports and obituaries ... Charles Knowlton still carries membership cards for the American Society of Wheelmen, a bunch of bicyclers who went out of business in 1903. He wants to know if there are any members of that organization still around. R. C. McCullum was the Anahelmer who was actively interested in the society at the turn of the century. He had a bicycle shop. E. W. Dean of Fullerton was another fellow who helped blaze the bicycle trails, but he lost interest when he bought himself a Franklin...
FEATURETTE — Recent newspaper reports say that five White Russians were granted asylum in Orange county, reminds us of an interesting personality we met in a war-time shipyard. He was a meticulous individual who worked in the electrical drafting section under the supervision of Clarence Modyman, well-known Northern Orange county electrical engineer. He was keenly interested in current events, knew everyone who was worth knowing and even during the time when Russia was, an a so-called ally of Uncle Sam, he had a deep-routed contempt for the Soviet regime. He was a chap by the name of Greg Bern—a man who had lived history. When the Bolshevikies assassinated the Tsar, he was a young officer assigned too keep the royal loot from falling into the hands of the revolutionists. He escaped by submarine and ultimately beat his way across Siberia. There was a romantic angle to this interesting draftsman's life, too. He had married Rusputin's daughter... Ivan and building himself a $12,000 home.

The new semester has brought several changes in the studies of most of the students. Eighth grade art classes are starting new projects in lettering, clay work and painting. Instructor is Miss Upp. A switch will be effected by the seventh and eighth grade girls. Sewing will be taught the eighth grade girls, and cooking will be given the seventh grade. The boys are going to be affected the same way, but on different courses. Eighth grade classes will take metal shop and the seventh grade boys will be taking wood shop.
Seventh grade social studies classes are studying about the Middle Ages and are making notebooks.
Up on top again, the A and B basketball teams played Brea and won both games with a score of 35-19 and 16-14 respectively.

When the Bolsheviks assassinated the Tsar, he was a young officer assigned too keep the royal loot from falling into the hands of the revolutionists. He escaped by submarine and ultimately beat his way across Siberia. There was a romantic angle to this interesting draftsman's life, too. He had married Kasputin's daughter . . . Ivan and Yuliana Pakuloff, Mrs. Apolo-Maria Kolovsky and Vladimir Kolovsky might also tell some mighty interesting stories of stark, realistic drama, because they've lived it.
REMEMBER — If most folks were only half as good as they think they are, they'd be twice as good as they actually are.
Gehrmann Shoots For Dodds' Mark
BOSTON (UP) — Don Gehrmann, the seemingly unbeatable thin man among the nation's milers, not only is expected to win his 37th consecutive race tomorrow night but some think he might break Gil Dodds' indoor mark of 4:05.3.
And if he should be hustled into better time by a pair of FBI agents——Fred Wilt and Horace Ashenfelter — the Rev. Gilbert Dodds will be at Boston Garden as a witness.
Dodds, now track coach at Wheaton (Ill.) college, is scheduled to start the Hunter mile, one of the features of the 62nd-Boston A. A. meet.
Lifetime Homes Open New Tract
With more than 1000 of their homes already sold on the "no own payment" contract to Orange county veterans, officials of the Lifetime Homes Company in Fullerton announced this week that preparations for the opening of another tract of the popular wellings is under way.
Henry C. Cox, the firm's president, revealed that steps were being taken to open a new group of homes in Fullerton in the near future. The very lowest terms possible would be available to veterans, the builder assured.
"We are convinced Orang county has a great future and the record number of homes sold here last year has made us even more certain that veterans are looking for homes in this area," Cox said.
As was the case in the other Lifetime tracts, a careful selection of location as well as floor plans, exteriors, and other features was made before the newest project was decided upon, the company's head stated. "We want the Lifetime homes to be just what the name implies—a home for life," he concluded.
PAKISTAN IMPORTS GROW
KARACHI, Pakistan (P)—Pakistan during three months ending October recorded the highest import figures from countries other than India. Operation of the open general license made imports soar to $23,460,000.
But the high price of cotton reduced export figures to $15,000,-000. Trade with India during this period was mostly by barter.

AUHS ANGLES
BY JEANNINE PANNIER
With last semester and all their accumulated demerits and absences far behind them, AUHS Connies and Clems started school Monday with a clean slate.
"There'll Be Some Changes Made" seemed to be the theme song for this past week as students were dropping this subject and adding that one and remarring periods in general. One of the most predominent changes, however, was that of the beginning journalism students taking over the editing of the "Anoranco." This week the fifth period staff with Annette Ater as editor put out the paper and next week the third period class will be headed by Don Hillary. These two classes will alternate each week until a definite staff is chosen.
Featured at the P-TA meeting last Tuesday evening in the AUHS library were the presidents of the different service and subject clubs on the campus. They participated in a panel discussion on "Why Did I Join this Club?" The panel also told of the various activities of their clubs, dues and requirements for membership.
Any student having 20 grade points may join the honor society according to Miss Virginia Huff, the club adviser. Advantages members of this club enjoy are the "ditch" day they may take while other students are "slaving" away in school and the exemption from semester exams.
