EX-SOLUNS—From left to right, above, Joanne Kellogg, Gretchen Glover, Phil Wright and Stuart Schmid are shown at work with Tommie Thomason, Anaheim YMCA secretary, seated, formulating their report on the third annual YMCA Youth in Government Model Legislature, held last week, Thursday to Sunday. The youthful legislators succeeded in getting a re-definition of reckless driving passed by the mock legislature. Coxes Sightsee Carlsbad Caverns Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Cox, 1215 Lincoln ave., left Wednesday afternoon and headed for colorful New Mexico by way of Yuma and Tucson. They drove all the way, over 2000 miles, and made it back by Sunday evening, by getting up in the mornings about 3:30 a.m. and driving all day. Tourist season is at an ebb for the present so it was possible to enjoy the caverns with not more than 300 sight-seers touring the underground caves crowding about them at the same time. The trip home was routed by way of Phoenix and Blythe. Mrs. Cox mentioned that the weather was conditioned for comfort. This was their first trip to the Carlsbad Caverns, and they decided it was a long weekend, well spent.

Mrs. Della Burrows, Route 1, Zionsville Anaheim Gazetteer by JOHN S. NEUBAUER he called together workmen of like occupations... know that by this craft we have our wealth.—Acts 19:23-29. ERRATA—Ever wonder why someone hasn't written a complete history of Anaheim and its environs? Simply because it isn't worth the effort. Source material is contradictory. The late Henry Kuchel was seeped in Anaheim lore, but he never found time to compile a history of the Colony... When George Barter put out Vol. I, No. 1 of the Gazette in 1870, it was Kuchel who delivered the paper. Bartler, incidentally, was associated with Henry Hamilton who gave Los Angeles its first daily newspaper—La Estrella de los Angeles... The Star, as it was later called, was founded May 17, 1851. The first edition was 12x18 inches, four pages—two were edited in English by John A. Lewis and two were in Spanish. Manuel Clemente Rojo edited this section. FACT & FICTION—Although Harris Newmark, one of Los Angeles' pioneer merchants and historians, wrote that August Lanenberger married one of Bernardo Yorbn's daughters, Mrs. Henry Kuchel says it isn't so. The fact is August married Juan Pacifica On- Y Members Back From Legislature Anaheim "Y" representative to the third annual YMCA Youth in Government Model Legislature held in Sacramento, Feb. 22 to 2 returned to Anaheim Sunday night after a successful legislative session. Senator Phil Wright, Assemblymen Joanne Kellogg and Gretchen Glover and Lobbyist Stuart Schmid reported yesterday that they succeeded in obtaining passage of their bill, Assembly No. 10 and Senate No. 401, titled "A Redefinition of Reckless Driving." Wright is president of Anaheim Hi-Y club, Misses Kellogg and Glover represented AUHS Junior class Tri-Hi-Y and Schmid is member of Saxon Hi-Y. The four representatives left Advisor Tommie Thomason, local YMCA secretary, Wednesda morning for the capital city, and returned late Sunday. They esti- said that 30,000 head of cattle perished on the Abel Stearns Rahcho alone." The drought of 1863-64 put an end to cattle raising as a distinctive industry in Southern California. HISTORIAN—John S. Hittler one of the original colonists who owned the lot that is now the block bounded by Palm, Center Citron and Cypress, was the first Anaheim historian. His writing preserved much of the beginning of the West's first irrigated agricultural enterprise. PERSONALITY—In 1869, Wil Woman Writes Poetry Now HADACOL Supplies Vitamins B1, B2, Niacin and Iron Which Her System Lacked Did you ever feel so good that you wanted to sing about it? Mrs. Della Burrows, Route 1, Zionsville, Indiana, feels so good nowadays, that she's writing poetry about it. Mrs. Burrows is feeling that way because she found that HADACOL with its Vitamins B1, B2, Niacin and Iron was just what her system needed. Mrs. Burrows wanted everyone to know just how highly she thought of HADACOL and she expressed it in this little poem: "Well, here is my age, if you must know, 74 years young. Hair white as snow. A great many times I've heard people say, 'I'm taking HADACOL every day!' Just try a bottle and you will find it's what you've been looking for all this time.' So, I got me a bottle and drank it all up and soon felt as spry as a pup. So, now, I'm on my fourth bottle of HADACOL, I feel so much better. I sleep like a baby, eat like a pig, and if anyone should ask me, I could dance a jig." Only HADACOL gives you that "Wonderful HADACOL Feeling"—accept no substitutes. Buy the genuine HADACOL today. Copyright 1951 The LeBlanco Corporation FACT & FICTION—Although Harris Newmark, one of Los Angeles' pioneer merchants and historians, wrote that August Langenberger married one of Bernardo Yorbn's daughters, Mrs. Henry Kuchel says it isn't so. The fact is August married Juan Pacifica Ontiveras' daughter. FAMINE—Although the winter of 1861-62 was one of the wettest in recorded Southern California history, the following winter (1862-63) was one of the driest Less than four inches of rain was recorded that year. The hills were brown and parched. Streets had been muddy quagmires the winter before were dry, powdered dust... Newmark said that Anaheim was a veritable oasis because of its irrigation system, but Anaheimers were forced to defend their homes and vineyards from thirty cattle which broke through the willow fence that surrounded the Colony... Day after day went by with cloudless skies. Grass failed to sprout from the cracked, famished earth. Springs and water holes dried up and the great ranges were denuded of every blade of grass... "Loss of cattle was fearful. The plains were strewn with carcasses," wrote an early California historian. "In many places around the clenergas, where there was a vestige of green, the ground was covered with bleaching skeletons. Travelers for years afterward were often startled by coming suddenly onto a veritable Golgotha—a place of skulls—the long horns standing out in defiant attitude as if to protect the fleshless bones. It was HISTORIAN—John S. Hittle one of the original colonists who owned the lot that is now the block bounded by Palm, Center Citron and Cypress, was the first Anaheim historian. His writing preserved much of the beginning of the West's first irrigated agricultural enterprise. PERSONALITY—In 1869, William Seward, secretary of state crossed the continent on his trip to Alaska. This was an important occasion for Southern California. The Los Angeles civic leaders ode that day got up a party to meet the boat at San Pedro, but they were left standing on the dock when the party decided to put into San Diego instead... Stewart was accompanied by his son, Fredrick and his daughter-in-law; Gen W. S. Rosecrans, Gen. Norton C Hunter, Col. Thomas Sedgwick and Sen. S. B. Atwell. They were met in Anaheim by the Los Angeles welcoming committee. They tell us, though I haven't seen it in print, that the Secretary and his staff spent a few pleasant hours in Anaheim a city known for its go-mudlichkeit... It might have been a visit like Wendell Wilke's pre-war campaign stop when his special stopped long enough for him to say: "My friends of Anaheim..." Or it could have been like one of Franklin D. Roosevelt trips through Anaheim. Remember? Soldiers were parked at quarter-mile intervals down the right-of-way, keeping the curious back When the train did puff by Anaheimers got a glimpse of him and Eleanor, as they chatted in the observation car... NITECAP—Today's news is to morrow's history. Wilson to Tell of Deterioration of US As Packing House Meetings Start Again Dr. T. W. Wilson, well known evangelist who is conducting the Christ for Orange County meetings through March 11 will resume the series tonight when he discusses "What Has Become of the Backbone that Made Our Country?"

In Santa Ana, the Nazarene mated that about 300 "Y" members attended the model legislature. Said Assemblyman Glover of the trip—"I learned more in those three days about legislative procedure and the meaning of the democratic process in government than I have in all my reading and class-work on the subject. It was a lot of fun, too." Church at 1602 N. Ross st., and the Gospel Center at S. Broadway at Russell are participating. In Anaheim, the Bethel Baptist church at Broadway and Lemon, the Free Methodist Church in Garden Grove, and the Free Methodist Church in Orange are having similar meetings. All prayer meetings at these churches have been scheduled for 6:30 a.m. Additional prayer meetings are being held nightly at the Anaheim tabernacle, the temporary title given the Anaheim Citrus Fruit association since it has been cleared of all equipment and turned over to the evangelistic group as a meeting place that will seat some 300 persons. These meetings are at 6:30 just prior to the evening sermon by Dr. Wilson which gets under way at 7:30 p.m. Pearson Continued from Page 1 plaint, namely that "any damage or injury the plaintiff may have received was contributed to, directly and proximately, by the negligence of the plaintiff himself."

Mayor Pearson's answer was filed through the Santa Ana law firm, Forgy, Reinhaus, and Forgy. BEGONIAS TO MEET The Orange County Branch the American Begonia Society meet in the Farm Bureau Hall.

In maintaining the morale of the American Army, the Red Cross must play an important part. As our armed forces are increased in numbers, the work of the Red Cross for servicemen and their families and for hospitalized veterans must be correspondingly increased. And in addition we are now called on to coordinate the procurement of blood for all the armed services. Just as our fighting men have joined with those of many nations to prevent aggression and strive for lasting security and peace, so we, from all sections, all groups and all faiths, must join together in the defense of the ideals and the humanities that mean freedom to us.

The Red Cross has been called on to recruit and train 250,000 volunteer nurse's aides; hundreds of thousands of housewives in home nursing, and 20,000,000 men and women in first aid. These are large numbers. They involve a tremendous organized effort in which every one of us must play a part.
