Mr. Patch urged his listeners to become interested in civil defense and then undertake training offered by groups in cities and county areas. He described the civil defense program as "organized selfhelp." During the meeting Leroy Ater inducted Doug Taylor and Ambrose McDonald as new members. President Dick Gay pointed out that two members of the club were newly elected directors of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce: Oscar Schultz and Claude Owens.

The bird went to Mr. McDonald. Harold Smith, Anaheim's furniture king, donated a floor lamp, which was won by Dr. Lee Deming.

Shows Many Improvements Just a short time less than a year ago, Investment in Youth Inc., a non-profit organization, was founded to transform the old La Palma school house at the corner of La Palma and Olive st., into a center of youth activity in Anaheim. The school house, now known as Investment in Youth Hall, was acquired and action toward the goal of a completely equipped youth center was started under the guidance of a board of directors headed by President Adolf Schoepe. Vice-president is John Bovec, secretary-treasurer is Clinton Flynn. Other directors are Ernest Owston, Leo Frils, Marian F. Bushman and Mildred Schmitz. Triple Garage Added During 1951 a number of improvements have been made on the grounds and buildings, all adding up to more usefulness to the youth of the Anaheim area. A triple garage was given to the institution by Adolf Schoepe. This has been moved to the premises; a cement floor poured, and a shower stall built in one corner for the caretaker's use. Several local contractors and craftsmen helped put this building into shape. It materially aids in the storing of equipment used in ground maintenance as well as camping equipment, storage, etc., for several youth groups. The Girl Scouts have had an outside double barbecue built under the pepper trees to enable outside meals to be prepared and enjoyed by sizeable parties. The Ikes have installed more inside kitchen equipment, complete with cupboards full of dishes, extra preparation tables, stoves, etc. Ten large folding tables were also made by the Ikes for use as dining tables. Landscaping Improved The superintendent of grounds and buildings, Chet Gray, has spent many hours establishing a turf to replace the two acres of dusty yard. Trees and shrubs have been planted in many strategic locations. The whole premises are kept in the best of order in spite of the regular use of many active youth groups. Every chair, table Christmas party for handicapped children was held there. Organizations wishing to use the hall should contact any member of the board of directors or the caretaker, Chet Gray. The request for use will be passed on to the Scheduling committee headed by Ernest Owston, which will pass on qualifications for use and open dates on the Hall's calendar of events. Public Support Needed Financing of maintenance and the caretaker's salary was underwritten at the outset of the project by Kwikset Locks, Inc., for one year. The first year is drawing to a close and support of the institution will be placed upon the shoulders of the public through voluntary donations. "The future of Investment in Youth, Inc., an organization which has proved its worth in helping Anaheim's youth, is in the public's hands. We hope they will be generous and prompt in contributing to the furtherance of this fine project." Bovee said. New Edition of Farm Record Out A new edition of the California Farm Record Book has been published and copies can be seen at the local office of the University Agricultural Extension Service, 1104 West 8th Street, Santa Ana. A copy can be ordered through that office at a price which includes printing costs and shipping charges, according to Farm Advisor Harold E. Wahlberg. The book has proven popular with a number of farmers for the keeping of farm records. It provides for figuring farm profits or losses for both management and income tax purposes. It enables the farmer to obtain monthly and annual totals on various kinds of expenses. The careful use of this book, plus the making of all payments in check form, can help the farmer keep a reliable record of his farm's finances.

Home Advisor Marian Prentiss, the University of California cultural Extension Service, tests that parents explain fully on Christmas day how operate the toy safely. If it is advanced for the age of the child, put it away for use at a date. Some of the Christmas pitfalls, home advisor says, are the knife for the boy too young to use it wisely; the chemistry set is educational for the older or girl, but unsafe in the hands of youngsters; or a bicycle ridden by a boy or girl who has been taught the rules of safety for the very young, toys with invisible parts or buttons small enough to swallow are dangerous. Prentiss suggests that relatives and friends buying toys contend stores for lists of suitcases and safe gifts for the younger ones on the Christmas shopping list.

Every chair, table and square inch of floor is always found polished and well cared for. "These facilities are truly something for Anaheim to be proud of," Vice-President Bovee stated.
