ANAHEIM Daily The Anaheim Gazette Was Established In 1870 As A Weekly And Is Anaheim's First Newspaper VOLUME LXXXI ANAHEIM, ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, FRIDAY, OCTOBER Communist Dead Litter ‘Buy in Anaheim’ Campaign Vote Deadline Announced In a move to contract the daily “Buy in Anaheim” campaign standings so they will not require so much space, the Gazette today announced that all entrants in the campaign who do not show an increase in vote totals between now and Wednesday, Oct. 22, will be eliminated from the standings. This does not mean they will be eliminated from the campaign! Their votes will be counted and added to their totals, but they will not be included in the daily tabulation between Oct. 22 and Nov. 15. On the other hand, those organizations showing a gain between now and Oct. 22 will appear daily in the campaign standings.

At his request, he was escorted by Capt. Herman Stahl, chief of the sheriff's criminal division, to the First Christian church in Santa Ana, and was baptised by the Rev. Gerald S. Bash, the pastor. The young ex-marine, taken to the church, which is located little more than a block from the county jail, received the sacrament of baptism in silence and made no comment regarding his reasons for requesting it, Stahl said. Daily Gazette Anaheim's First Newspaper, 92 YEARS OF DEVOTION TO ALL THAT IS GOOD IN ANAHEIM California, Friday, October 17, 1952 5 Cents per Copy 50 Cents per Month No. 252 Litter Korean Battlefields Red Casualties Continue to Mount As Battle for Vital Peaks Rages SEOUL (P)—Nearly 1000 Chinese troops assaulted Sniper Ridge on the Central Korean Front tonight under Red artillery fire so intense the South Korean defenders couldn't measure it. The Chinese and ROKs closed in a grenade-throwing, hand-to-hand fight for pinpoint hill, center peak on Sniper Ridge northwest of Kumwha. Late reports said the desperately-battling ROKs still held control of pinpoint. But to the west, South Korean Ninth Division troops pulled back off Iron Horse Hill at dark after fighting Chinese throughout the afternoon. Communist dead littered the frost-whitened battlefields as Red casualties mounted to record 1952 totals. In the bloody week ended Tuesday, the U.S. Eighth Army estimated the Communists lost 10,186 soldiers. The total—highest since last November—included 5868 killed, 4258 wounded and 60 captured. The ROK Ninth Division today reported it inflicted a staggering 11,653 casualties on the Communists—more than the strength of a full Chinese division—in nine days of see-saw fighting for White Horse Mountain ended Wednesday. South Korean soldiers searched the shell-seared hill in Chorwon. Hest Solicitors to Meet Monday for Instructions Residential solicitors for Community Chest funds will meet at a.m., Monday, in the various auditoriums of the Anaheim High school district for auctions on solicitation prores and to become acquainted with the areas they will cover.

His gun was concealed under the newspaper as he walked into the office just after 11 p.m., but was very much in evidence thereafter. He pointed it at Mrs. Alice Olson, 1107 Bush st., who stood back of the counter, and made the usual remark: "This is a stickup. Give me the money out of the cash drawer." She complied without argument: Watching helplessly was the supervising employee, Mrs. Willard Jordan, 13042 LaVerne st., Santa Ana. The bandit grabbed the money handed across the counter to him by Mrs. Olson and suddenly turned and ran to the street one hand filled with currency. He turned north to Sixth st. and disappeared east around the corner of a newspaper building. The woman employee described him to police as about 25 to 30 years old, 5 feet 6 inches tall, and weighing about 130 to 135 pounds. He was of sandy complexion and wore no mask. They noticed that he was wearing a dark blue yacht-ing cap and dark blue jacket. The ROK Ninth Division today reported it inflicted a staggering 11,653 casualties on the Communists—more than the strength of a full Chinese division—in nine days of see-saw fighting for White Horse Mountain ended Wednesday. South Korean soldiers searched the shell-seared hill in Chorwon Valley and reported digging up 7147 Chinese bodies buried under loose dirt and hidden in bunkers or under shrapnel-torn under brush. The Ninth Division estimated an additional 3439 Reds were killed and 1067 wounded in the battle to control a major invasion route to South Korea. The Communist Peiping Radio claimed 8000 Allied troops were "annihilated" in intense Red counterattacks from Oct. 6-11. The broadcast, monitored in Tokyo, said the Communists shot down 18 Allied warplanes and damaged 32 others during the period.

Recordings Will Be Offered in Evidence at Trial Trial of the Bridgford packing plant robbery case today was at recess until Monday in superior court at Santa Ana, and at that time the prosecution will offer in evidence a series of recordings made by Lt. Tommy Taylor of the Anaheim police department, which detail interrogations of Irving Schulman, Los Angeles cafe man, who is one of the four defendants on trial. Schulman's statements to Taylor, as contained in the recordings, are expected to blast the claim of another defendant, Richard McGovern, that he was not involved in the $17,000 Bridgford meat robbery. Schulman implicated McGovern when questioned by Taylor, the recordings show. The recordings were played before Judge Robert Gardner and attorneys for prosecution and defense attorneys, with the jury excused to determine whether the recordings are admissible as evidence to be laid before the jury. If admitted, they will be replayed to the jury Monday. Hallowe’en Par Nearlv Company Last night the Hallowe’en rade captains met to report on progress being made in marsh parade entries. A total of 32 entries were reported by the tails.

Adlai Stevenson stands in the back of an open car as he parades through downtown Los Angeles after arriving for two speeches. It was one of the most exuberant receptions the Democratic presidential candidate has received. Crowds lined the streets for blocks. Adlai Assumes Humble Role in Speech SAN DIEGO (AP)—Gov. Adlai Stevenson declared today that the "best chance for a just and peaceful world" hinges on the results of next month's election. Assuming a humble role in his battle with Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, the GOP nominee, the Illinois governor said in an address prepared for an early morning rally here that no man on earth can truly measure up to the awful responsibilities of the presidency."

Eisenhower, the GOP nominee, the Illinois governor said in an address prepared for an early morning rally here that no man on earth can truly measure up to the awful responsibilities of the presidency." 'Welcome Week’ Signs to Lure New Folk into City of Good Living' At a noon meeting yesterday, the Welcome Week committee of Anaheim Junior Chamber of Commerce took another step toward the Oct. 26 to Nov. 1 "show-off" week in which the city's new residential developments and industries will be on display. Meeting with Jaycee President Bob Heinz, the committee made final arrangements to distribute "Welcome Week" signs yesterday and today to homes and business establishments along the Welcome Way route which guides visitors to new residential developments and industrial areas. Objective of the week, which closes with the mammoth "Oct. 32" Hallowe'en festival, is to have residents of Anaheim invite one or two families to visit during the period, thus doubling or tripling the community's population temporarily. Heinz declared that once visitors encountered "the welcoming spirit, the civic activity and the industrial and residential growth of Anaheim, topped off by our unique Hallowe'en program and parade," they will be live candidates for moving to the "City of Good Living." Visitors will be invited to "open house" programs at various Anaheim plants after the Hallowe'en parade. Heinz said, and the "Welcome Way" markers along principal Anaheim streets will guide them to other points of interest, including new residential developments reflecting a wide choice of home styles. As an indication of the tremendous population growth of the city in the last five years, Heinz pointed out that 1952 public school enrollment figures show a 50 per cent attendance increase at high schools and a 64 per cent hike in elementary schools, while parochial schools have increased more than 33 per cent. He noted also that surveys by the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce, which is sponsoring a year of "housing promotion," show a high home-buying potential among Anaheim industrial workers living but while he said he was humble in the face of the fact that the voters might make him the next president, Stevenson said he is not uncertain nor hesitant. Last night noisy audience which chanted "We want Stevenson" practically tore down the Shrine auditorium in Los Angeles when Stevenson greeted the demonstration with: "I'm delighted you want me so much, but I'm not that hard to get." Fire Capt. John G. Degenholt estimated that 7000 persons overcrowded the hall. In a recent visit, Eisenhower drew an estimated 9000 in larger quarters. Eisenhower's street crowds had been estimated at 250,000 persons, almost 87% times the number who were said by police to have greeted Stevenson. But the Republican nominee traveled nearly 10 miles further than the Democratic candidate. Before his personal appearance before the San Diego crowd, Stevenson said in a studio radio and television broadcast that the turning point in the struggle for world peace came when President Truman decided to send American forces into Korea. Mrs. Elsie Gibbs Dies at Home Mrs. Elsie L. Gibbs, 73, died at her home, 929 E. Center, Anaheim, last night. Born in St. Albens, Vt., she had been a resident of Anaheim for the past 41 years. She is survived by her husband, Frank N. Gibbs, president of the Gibbs Lumber Co., one son, Oscar L. Gibbs of Yorba Linda, two daughters, Mrs. Archie K. Crouch of Berkeley, Mrs. Victor L. Chambers, Whittier, and six grandchildren. Mrs. Gibbs was a prominent and beloved member of the Anaheim Presbyterian church, the D.A.R. Hallowe’en Parade Captains Report All Divisions Nearly Complete: ‘Old Hallowe’en’ Floats Needed last night the Hallowe’en parade captains met to report on the press being made in marshalingade entries. A total of 32 floaties were reported by the captains. Bill Cook, chairman of the committee, assured the captains of at least 25 bands, in-ing the famed BPO Elks No. band from Los Angeles and the Toro Marine band. Mrs. Ernie Jones, chairman of Equestrian entries, reported the best selection of fines ever to be assembled in parade, including all the best Arabian, Spanish, Indian fancy and working western animals, would appear in the Anaheim Hallowe’en parade. The float situation was summed up follows: Captain Al Marzol of the Arizona Western division stated his division was en-ly completed, refusing to take further entries. Captain John Williams, Division 1. Story Book Tales; Captain Rex Coons, Division 3. Holldavs; Captain Oscar Schultz, Division 5. “Mardi Gras.” and O. E. Hanson, captain of the Grand Finale, Division 6, all reported their divisions filled with the exception of need for one float entry each. Captain Doug Hankins, Division 2. Old Hallowe’en, which more nearly symbolizes the old Anaheim Hallowe’en parade, urged all captains to influence float prospects to develop floats for his division in order to maintain the historic aspects of the parade. Hankins, in his plea to maintain the old Hallowe’en tradition, stated he can use three or four old fashioned, inexpensive, rustic type floats requiring native ingenuity and original ideas. He suggested the float motif can include scenes from down on the farm, pranksterism of the past generation; with a generous use of goblins, scarce crowds, owls, bats and witches, and utilizing eerie lighting effects, colors and sound. He said this division can use old fashioned horse drawn vehicles driven by persons in costumes of the gay nineties; tandem or high wheeled bicycles, all sorts of stunts, gadgets, specialties, costumed people wearing garb of Hallowe’en type, Gay Nineties, Mardi Gras and hard time costumes. Doug Hankins can be reached at McCoy Motor Co. It was the consensus of opinion that the completion of this division of the parade will assure participants and audiences of the most colorful and exciting parade in the history of the Hallowe’en Festival.
