DIXIE CUP is moving into the big new build on E. South st., adjacent to the Santa Fe railroad tracks. The modern manufacturing plant has 100,000 square feet of floor space.—(Gazette photo by Kreidt) Dixie Cup's $1,000,000 Operation Is Beginning to Roll in Anaheim Anaheim's newest manufacturing plant, Dixie Cup, now is beginning to roll. Members of the administrative and manufacturing force are moving into the spacious plant in Anaheim's southeast section; and, Dixie Cup officials hope they will be in production on their world-famous paper cups by mid-summer. Anaheim's newest manufacturing plant, Dixie Cup, now is beginning to roll. Members of the administrative and manufacturing force are moving into the spacious plant in Anaheim's southeast section; and, Dixie Cup officials hope they will be in production on their world-famous paper cups by mid-summer. Immediate objective of the company is to have approximately 150 persons on the pay-roll when the equipment is installed and the manufacturing processes and systems get under way. General manager of the Anaheim division of Dixie Cup is Fred T. Krein, who has been associated with Dixie Cup for 30 years. For the past six years prior to coming to the Anaheim plant, Mr. Krein was Pacific general manager of the company with headquarters in Los Angeles. Plant superintendent of the new Anaheim enterprise is J. K. Hauck, who comes to Anaheim from the Dixie Cup plant in Darlington, S. C. Mr. Hauck has been in the Dixie Cup company for 18 years. LATE LAST YEAR, Dixie Cup began an intensive search of the West Coast to find a location for its West Coast plant. By March 1, this year, the quest narrowed down to Anaheim, and the company secured a lease on the 100,000 square foot plant originally built to house the Daystrom Furniture company. Soon after, Dixie Cup put into operation its plan to move into Anaheim quarters and get production underway. The company will manufacture the world renowned line of Dixie cups and containers in Anaheim. Mr. Krein points out that the plant is not a "war baby." And, about 65 per cent of the employees will be women. Within a short period the one-story building will represent a total investment in machinery, equipment, facilities, and rental of more than $1,000,000, company officials say. FRED T. KREIN, right, is the general manager of the new Anaheim Dixie Cup plant. On his right is J. K. Hauck who will be the plant superintendent of the big plant in Anaheim's southeast corner.

The two men hope to have the $1,000,000 plant operation in production by mid-summer. The company will manufacture Dixie Cup's line of world-famous paper containers. MORE ABOUT . . .

They are bush roses, bearing large flowers in clusters, bloom for a lengthy period, and are hearty eaters and drinkers.

The Anaheim plant incorporates modern facilities for the comfort and health of the Dixie Cup employees. Mr. Krein points out. Included will be scientific lighting, modern washrooms, locker rooms, smoking rooms, baseball diamond, and other recreation facilities and programs. Mexicali is the capital of Northern Lower California. POLYANTHAS are small-flowered roses in clusters and the bushes require approximately the same care and are used for the same purposes as the floribundas. Hybrid perpetuals produce their big crop in June. They are close relatives of hybrid teas. Ramblers are cane roses bearing clusters of small roses; climbers are canes bearing larger flowers. Rambler canes are pliant; climber canes are stiff. Holes should be dug deep and large enough to permit the roots to spread wide. Before setting in the roots, cut off cleanly any broken or bruised portions. When planting bushes in the spring cut the tops back to about six inches from the ground, leaving, if possible, a bud on the outside. In planting make certain the union point is an inch or so below the ground in most climates. USE WATER plentifully to settle the soil so there are no air pockets around the roots, and then fill the rest of the hole. For the first couple of weeks, mound dirt high over the plant to keep it from drying out. Cultivate the beds the year round and in dry seasons soak the soil thoroughly when necessary. (There are a number of proprietary preparations on the market for both feeding and protecting roses from pests. They should be fed in the spring and early The Excelsior Creamery Co., distributor of dairy products in Anaheim and throughout Orange county, is listed as the largest dairy in Orange county, after a beginning over 37 years ago with a small dairy in Santa Ana, two horse-drawn wagon routes and one truck. The W. 17th st. ranch was acquired in 1931 and later a ranch near Bishop where the growing creamery maintains 5000 acres in the High Sierras. The W. 17th st. ranch rapidly became a showplace of Orange county and every semester plays host to thousands of Orange county school children. The cream and blue trucks range from the familiar custom-made delivery type to large tankers and transports. More than 500 wholesale stops and 6000 retail outlets call for split-second planning of a perishable commodity. The company has always made it a practice to conduct extensive research and experimentation in developing superior products—and is the only one in Orange county with complete laboratory control. Excelsior Creamery Co.—Orange County's Own"—has built steadily on the basis of quality and service. summer with a balanced plant food. Study up on pests and approved methods of control. Cane roses are planted the same way. Ramblers may be pruned immediately after flowering. Climbers need little pruning, and bear their best flowers on old wood. Livelihood of 7,500 Folks Comes From Industries and Citrus Firms There are some 85 plants in Anaheim which manufacture goods or process agricultural products which go to the four corners of the earth. Employed in these enterprises are some 3500 people, who probably are breadwinners for almost 7500 folks in Anaheim and environs. The citrus packers and citrus product manufacturers are beloved to employ about 950 persons on a yearly average. Machine shops, and other metal working plants give employment to almost 200 workers. The medium sized plants, which include a wide variety of manufacturers from hosiery, through chemicals and wire, to house trailers, employ more than 800 people. The new Dixie Cup plant, now coming into operation, will soon employ 150, while the growing Robertshaw-Fulton plant now employs around 200. Both plants are expected to increase their payrolls in the future. The big new employer in Anaheim is Northrop Aviation which now has 900 people on the employment rolls. Kwikset Locks has almost 600 people. Figured roughly, therefore, the fine industrial units of Anaheim alone employ some 3500 men and women. If 3000 of these people are "breadwinners" with families averaging 2½ persons, there are some 7500 people who gain their livelihood directly from Anaheim's industries and citrus plants. (One year ago, this figure was put at 5000 persons.) Salt water bathers often have to retreat from the water because of the stinging nettle, a species of jellyfish, which shoots microscopic stingers into bathers.

ROBINS, TOO, LIKE CALIFORNIA CLIMATE PASADENA (P) — The robin population in Southern California is the largest in years and nobody seems to know why. However, the Audubon Society has ventured a theory or two: The society believes heavy storms in nearby mountains have forced the red-breasted birds down to warmer climes. Also the recent use of plants with red berries to landscape Southern California homes has some bearing on the case—robins love red berries.
