Anaheim Gazette FRIDAY, MAY 16, 1908 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA OLD AND NEW—The girls are modern but the same cannot be said for the ancient typewriters they are holding.

From left to right, above, are: Loretta Nelson of the Record-er's office, holding an 1884 Remington, patriarch of the machines; Fern Wessels of the Tax Collector's office, with a Smith Premier, double keyboard model, made in 1894 and in use up to 1911; Mary Allison of the Tax Collector's office, with the youngest of the group, a Hammor Multiplex, only 47 years old (1905); and Jan Liebig of the Tax Collector's office, with a Blicksenderfer, dated 1890-1892.

WHITE On the sheltered patio at the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Trapp, masses of showy epiphylum, the rare hybrid variety of desert cactus, are in full bloom. Their huge orchid-like flowers of intense reds and pinks with yellow centers are a beautiful sight to behold and have attracted a steady stream of visitors, horticulturists, camera enthusiasts, and bees. These plants are genuine cactus, true succulents which thrive in pots and hanging baskets, asking only a porous acid soil, occasional watering, and protection from the younger man take over. That was the news headliners of a year ago. Do you remember? ANAHEIM NEEDS — An adequate hospital! Yes, the Gazetteer has sung that tune before, but it's a vital necessity.

Liz Robbins and Joyce Shunk, Anaheimers, played leads in the annual Fullerton college spring play, "The Silver Cord." The co-eds played their parts well. Incidentally, Alex Omalev, who is better known for his championship basketball teams, does right well as a dramatic coach. That reminds us that he's been in the movies—played a mud-smeared extra in a war picture. POSTCARD POLL — Anaheimers still like Ike and Estes bestest. HOBBY The epiphyllum is comparatively new to Orange county but is gaining in popularity. Bill Trapp took up its culture some 12 years ago when a relative gave him the "Dutch Empress," a pink variety which is the parent of countless flourishing plants which now decorate the patio. The original plant has attained huge proportions, and by actual count has borne five hundred and three blossoms during its three week blooming season. Trapp has introduced three bright red varieties which offer spectacular contrast. The "Garnet," "Flamingo," and "Vina Rouge" have about the same coloring; but the formation of their flowers range from a row of single petals to a ruffled double formation in graduated hues. BEST YET "This has been the very best year yet for our cactus," says Trapp, referring to their size and the number of blossoms. He at-tributes their development winter and heavy rain that side dressings sludge may have had to do with it. Mrs. Trapp reports blooms can be worn in the same manner or floated in water for table arrangement. The Traps reside Vista, Anaheim. Monrovia, 1-0. Pitcher Bergan did it... At Brea-Olin Stewart S.

NEWS NUGGETS — Hal (Skeets) Gregg is showing 'em. Anaheimers are wondering how long he can keep it up. A 7-0 Coast league pitching record is amazing to say the least...

HS Sophomores In Driving Tests Dick Jepsen and Bobbie Jean Downs, AUHS sophomores, will represent Anaheim high in the annual Road-Day-O safe driving competition among Orange county schools to be held tomorrow in the Santa Ana civic center park.
