AUHS Boys Hear ROTC Advantages
Senior boys in AUHS heard an explanation of the nationwide college ROTC program and the advantages which it offers to high school boys planning to enter college late last week.
The speaker was Lt. Col. Richard W. Mabee, Professor of Military Science and Tactics at the Santa Barbara campus of the University of California. Col. Mabee emphasized the general objectives and provisions of the Reserve Officers Training Corps rather than its application to any particular campus.
Col. Mabee stated that the army ROTC is producing the majority of the nation's reserve officers. Student may qualify for officers commissions while pursuing a normal four year college program. Selected students may be deferred from Selective Service while they are enrolled in college ROTC. About 114,000 students in the nation are authorized to be deferred in colleges through the Army ROTC.
Also, many students are helped financially during the last two years of college by the substantial pay and allowances given to Advanced Course ROTC students.
"While these financial and deferment benefits are significant," Col. Mabee stated, "they are no more than by-products of the system. The primary justification of the Reserve Officers' Training Corps lies in the fact that it enables qualified students to prepare for leadership positions in the fullfilment of their most vital citizenship responsibilities."

In the past some students have not realized that Senior Division ROTC is a four year program. Exceptions to this exist in the case of veterans and students who have completed three years of high school ROTC. Some transfer students have discovered that they were ineligible for deferment or for admission to the Advanced Course because of insufficient time remaining in college to permit completion of the program. To avoid disappointment, most students should plan to enter the ROTC as freshmen, he said.
Gautschy to Lead Anaheim Visitors
When the Anaheim senior class journeys to Santa Ana college for its annual visit on April 18, it will be met by one of its own prominent former graduates.
Dean Gautschy, the editor of El Don, the student college newspaper, will be one of the members of the honorary Knights who will show the seniors the facilities and departments of the campus. The program for students will begin at 10:15 when Dr. McNaughton, director of the college, will say a few words to the Anaheim group. They will also be addressed by the student body president, the president of the Knights, and the president of Las Doncellas, which are college clubs. From there the students will visit the various departments in which they are interested.
Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Fulton scan the Gazette is not yet finished, it has a comfortable, friendly atmosphere lent by the tasteful furnishings.
Furniture in all the rooms is maple in the early American style. Even the planters are maple. The living room furniture is in dull greens and bright red accents, lamp shades, figures in patterns in chair coverings, etc.
At the time we were talking Mrs. Fulton made occasional trips into the kitchen to see how her pies were coming along. She was cooking dinner for the expected guests, Mr. and Mrs. Vincent Manzo, a young couple from across the street at 1207 E. Oak.
For the past three months Mrs. Fulton has worked in the final assembly department at Kwikset Locks, Inc. "I think its wonderful." she said, speaking of the profit-sharing plan recently initiated by the plant, and "they are wonderful to work for."
Leonard Fulton drives a truck for the Aaron-Schultz Furniture Co., and has been employed there for the past three years. In 1942 he joined the Army Signal Corps and was sent to Africa, Sardinia, France and was in occupied Ger-

This is a portion of the letter:
"Now we come to the real reason for writing you, namely, the day of the burning of Central School I hope you will give those boys the credit due them.
"We lived across the street at the school. It was midnight on 25th, not July 4th, that we heard cry of 'Fire' and swiftly retiring hoofbeats. A few moments later there were shots of war. A man on Los Angeles streets alizing that there were no light facilities in the building—school was not in session, the alarm by firing shots when saw the lighted windows. Entering the building he for kerosene poured on the secrest story floor, all ablaze.
"The firemen—a little volunteer group, (no cars)!—got there pretty promptly—in time to save whole new wing of the building. We were all mighty proud of fireboys. I can still see standing on the wooden stairs between the wings, playing stream on the old section saving the new. The valor..."

Many for a short time. Shortly after his discharge in '45, they were married.
Mrs. Fulton and I then went back to discussing her new home. The floors are all hardwood with better rugs casually thrown over. We say that as soon as possible they are going to get a carpet put down. "I hate to polish floors." Time was growing short and guests were expected so I said goodby."
Recently I received a letter mentioning on the interviews reported in the March 6th issue of the Gazette. That, if you will remember, was "Old Timer's Week" cause I picked a block that just those men is my reason for asking you to correct the very false impression afforded by the OBF interview. By the way, the fire took place on July 23th prior to 1902, not 1904 or '05. And it was not a Fourth of July casualty.
(Note: "Development & Growth of Anaheim Public Schools by Elenora Alice Parker states '1898—July-First school fire—partly destroyed Central building.'")
"Two more attempts were made that summer to burn the other half of the building. The general conviction was that it was a case of incendiarism. A night watchman was placed. He found a can of kerosene and a pinch-bar left behind by the arsonist when
Douglas Alarmed By Welfare State
Tom Douglas, dynamic director of the Orange County Welfare department, today expressed alarm at the rising costs of public welfare. He spoke before the Rotary club at its noon meeting.
He pointed out that in the past few years the costs of welfare have doubled and tripled until today it is a multi-million dollar enterprise borne by taxpayers.
As an example, he cited the figures on orphaned children's benefits. Ten years ago the monthly state cost was around $800,000; today it is more than $6,000,000 a month.
He asked "do we have that many more poor kids?" His answer was "no." He said some families now get more than $400 a month under welfare. "When papa was alive he never brought home more than $140 in his life."
He said he feared the system would kill the initiative and respect for money in the children.
In welfare work "you'll meet lots of miserable people," Mr. Douglas said. "When people get money for nothing something happens to them."
Others heard from during the program included Harold Smith, Bob Boney, the Rev. Phil Selfridge, Dick Gay, Ralph Focht, Arch Baker, E. P. Hapgood, Tex Middleton, Jimmy Morris, Mel Gauer, Dr. Howard Tews, the Rev. John K. Saville, John Lynn, John Bovee, Ray Eiden, Claude Russell and Theron Willis.

LONG NIGHT IN FOXHOLE
WITH THE FIRST MARINE DIVISION IN KOREA (UP)—Hard-pressed Marines in Korea can still take time out to note a coincidence.
Corporal Malcolmn R. Long, a Marine M.P., attached to the Seventh Marines, notes that he and a buddy, Arthur R. Long, were settling down for the night in a foxhole near the Chosin Reservoir when a third Marine suddenly jumped into the hole.
"Who are you," the two Longs asked the newcomer.
"The name is Ernest Long," was the reply.
Rail Workers' Raise Lessened
WASHINGTON (UP)—Because of the stabilization program, the Army said today it will not pay non-operating railroad workers a six-cents-an-hour cost of living increase due April 1 under a wage agreement. Instead they will get one and one-half cents.
Karl R. Bendetsen, assistant secretary of the Army, said he was withholding the full payment in accordance of an opinion of the attorney general and the request of Eric Johnston, administrator of the Economic Stabilization agency.
The Army is now technically operating the railroads. It took them over last summer to avert a strike.

might prevent their retirement or the collection of interest charges. The court ruling was accordingly sought.
District officials stated that the ruling would have no practical effect upon operation of district finances, with the possible exception of District 7, where a smaller assessed valuation required close calculating to keep under the 10-cent limit, in the purchase of facilities from the Joint Outfall Sewer system, and its own operating budget. To do so, it was necessary to spread payment of JOS facilities over a 30-year period, whereas Districts 2 and 3 are to complete payment for such facilities in 15 years.
The sanitation districts are scheduled to meet Wednesday to proceed with arrangements for sale of the bonds.

Fullerton Great Dane Mother Near Record with 19-Pup Litter
Mother of a canine Dionne family is Gerda, three-year-old Great Dane belonging to Dr. A. H. Reiswig of 836 Grand View, Fullerton, who gave birth to 19 pure-bred Great Dane pups Apr. 5.
The near-record birth (one Great Dane mother had 22 pups) happened on the back porch of the Reiswig home with Dr. and Mrs. Reiswig and their three children, Judy, Jon and Robert in attendance. It was the mother's first litter.
To Gerda's (and the pups') discomfiture, all of them were born alive and kicking and eager to find a place at Gerda's insufficient lunch-counter. Jon and Robert were drafted to make up the deficit.
All the baby bottles from the blessed events in the Reiswig family were rounded up and relief feedings were administered by the two boys.
The new pups were sired by a Great Dane from Krum Kennels in San Juan Capistrano. Gerda was purchased from the Adane Kennels in Anaheim two years ago and was a third prize winner at the Anaheim dog show last year.
