5 Anaheim Gazette FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1961 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Evangelist Team Bills Kiddie Show Taking a "boxoffice tip" from movie theater managers, the committee sponsoring the series of "Orange County for Christ" meetings in Anaheim has scheduled a special "kiddies' matinee" for tomorrow. Ray Ton, well known Southern California youth leader and evangelist, will follow his usual "Ton of Fun" routine in telling Orange county youngsters of the Bible in a style which mixes understanding and humor for their specific benefit. Ton is a ventriloquist of more than passing note and uses his dummy, Billy, in weaving together the Bible stories in such a way that children understand them. In addition, he also offers speed sketches in chalk and feats of magic for the entertainment of the youngsters. No meeting is scheduled for Monday, but two sessions will be held Sunday—one at 3 p.m., and one at 8:30 p.m., with Dr. Wilson, Song Leader Lon DeVos and Organist Herman Voss leading the religious services. The regular 7:30 p.m., meetings will be resumed on Tuesday. TON OF FUN—Ray Ton and his dummy, Billie, will serve as part of a special program scheduled for tomorrow at 10 a.m. at 804 E. Center st., Anaheim. All children are welcome at the free show, which is being sponsored as a part of the "Orange County for Christ" campaign now underway. The campaign will continue through March 11. KARACHI (AP)—Delegates who attended the third annual world Moslem conference in Karachi got clipped—free of charge.

Place—First Church of Christ, Scientist Pomona at Chapman Avenue, Fullerton Time—Sunday Afternoon, February 25th, at 3:00 o'clock ALL ARE WELCOME This month marks the 104th anniversary of the birth of Thomas Edison. Each passing year adds to the reasons we honor it. More and more, as time goes on, we are conscious of the debt we owe to Edison for the better world made possible by his inventions and discoveries. Only yesterday a strange, new power, electricity has become mankind's best and most versatile servant. Tomorrow, it will be even more wonderful. We honor Thomas Edison for the magnificence of his achievements—the countless advances resulting from the use of electric power. We honor him, too, because the products of his genius bring their benefits to all of us—young and old, rich and poor alike. They know no borders. SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY Anaheim Gazetteer by JOHN S. NEUBAUER For everyone that asketh receiveth—Matthew 7:7-12. A DAY TO REMEMBER—Six years ago today—February 23, 1945—U. S. Marines planted the American flag high atop Mt. Suribachi on the then-Jap-held island of Iwo Jima. Charles Rosecrans' dramatic photograph graphically recorded that event for posterity. HEARTLESS—War is hell! No one should know that better than Mrs. Stella Crawley, coordinator of the three Orange county draft boards. But, apparently, a draft-board gets a little calloused, otherwise mistakes like the one the Santa Ana board made wouldn't have happened... Fred Johnson is chairman of the board; G. O. Bixler and W. F. Sorensen are its members. These men, and Mrs. Crawley's staff should take their jobs seriously. They have an obligation to their country and to the men and women who comprise their territory... The following clipping tells a pathetic story— SEAL BEACH, Feb. 21 — A Marine Beaten, robbed of $18 ood and beaten by two unded men who gave him a their car at Arlington early morning, Pfc Pat Little, Camp ion Marine, told the sherfice today that he had lost the robbery.

But the California Highway Patrol ordered chains above 2200 feet on the Ridge Route, where ice and snow caused long delays to travel between Los Angeles and Bakersfield during the night and early morning. The temperature dipped to two above zero in Big Bear valley, where three inches of snow was on the ground. There were four inches at Lake Arrowhead and seven at Mt. Wilson and Chiloa Flats, north of Pasadena. Dr. Nee to Speak At White Temple The bamboo curtain of communist China will part briefly for Anaheimers on Sunday evening at 7 o'clock, when Rev. Gilbert Nee, former superintendent of the Methodist hospital at Wuhu, speaks at the regular evening service at White Temple Methodist church. Speaking on "The Communist Crisis in China," Dr. Nee will describe the hazards to Christians as the Red hordes seized control of that ancient land. He himself was forced to flee from his post with dramatic suddenness, not only because of his own illness at the time, but because of the persecution that might come to his associates if he remained. Seal Beach, Feb. 21 — A Marine killed in Korea last November was under orders today to report for his pre-induction physical examination. Richard Cruz, 20, was killed in Korea, Nov. 28, while serving with the first Marine Division. His parents, Mr. and Mrs. Louis Cruz, received a notice from the Santa Ana draftboard yesterday for their son to report Monday for his physical examination. Recently they received a card addressed to young Cruz ordering him to report to the draft board within 10 days. A brother-in-law, George Dion, informed the board that the youth had been killed in action. He was told that "the case was closed." How heartless can a draftboard get? If it were not so sad and heart-rending it might be funny: In times like these such thoughtlessness cannot be condoned. NEWSBREVITIES — Although the thermometer has skidded downward — it really must be spring. Dan Smith and Don Parker are getting ready to make their annual pilgrimage to Saskatchewan where they have extensive agricultural interest. Robert Harding may be interested in writing, but he can't afford to take the risk. A family man can't afford to gamble with the future... Business must be good. It is as far as Homer Watinee is concerned. Had it not been for the Anaheim building boom, Keith Murdock would not have assigned Rex Bruns to the Building Inspectors' office before shovelling off for the California City Managers' Meet in San Jose ... Ed Stringer is a real honest to goodness fire chief now that he can jump in his little red wagon and lead the firetruck when they turn out Time was when the chief hau Choirboys to Sing The Mitchell Choirboys of music picture, radio, and television fame are arriving in Anaheim from Hollywood to make a personal appearance at St. Charles's Military school, 215 Palm st., on Sunday at 7:30 p.m., in the school auditorium to thank the audience as they lift up the golden voices in song.

Speaking on "The Communist Crisis in China," Dr. Nee will describe the hazards to Christians as the Red hordes seized control of that ancient land. He himself was forced to flee from his post with dramatic suddenness, not only because of his own illness at the time, but because of the persecution that might come to his associates if he remained.

Reeves' motorcycle was demolished in the crash. He aws removed to Santa Ana Community hospital. The accident took place at 4 p.m. yesterday. Railroading Is Exacting Job Railroading is indeed a man's life... It's a hard, exacting, but satisfying job. And no one knows this better than Mr. Ben E. Nix, St., o1 2115 Ringo, Little Rock, Arkansas, who has been a railroad man for twenty-seven years. Yes, twenty-seven years is a long time, and a man has to feel in top-notch condition to keep going. For a while, Mr. Nix didn't feel much like eating, and was just generally run-down. He had heard a lot about HADACOL, but just didn't quite believe it. Finally he decided to give it a trial and was amazed at the results. He started feeling better after the first bottle and says he is going to continue taking HADACOL. Mr. Nix found that HADACOL contained Vitamins B1, B2, Niacin and Iron which his system lacked.
