Anaheim Gazette 3 SUNDAY MORNING, JAN. 18, 1953 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Social and Club Activities IRENE JULIAN SOCIETY EDITOR Phone 2206 Gerde Hulek, German Emigrant, Enjoys Freedom And Delightful Informality of Life in Anaheim Likes Co-Workers Of Own Age By JOAN S. WHITE Of all the pretty girls who pass in and out of the gates at the Kwikset Lock Company, you might single out Gerde Hulek for her sky blue eyes, honey blond hair, and the zest for living that shows in her step. You would certainly never guess that her status is "German immigrant" and that she has been in this country only two months. Gerde is the niece of Mrs. Louise Dahlman and is living with her now at the Dahlman place at 14611 E. Anaheim-Olive road. She was born and brought up in Bremen, Germany, where her parents an dtwo brothers now live. She has a sister who married an American Air Force man. That couple and their baby spent the summer with Mrs. Dahlman and are stationed in England. Gerde, on her way over here, missed seeing her sister by a scant eight days. ANAHEIM SPONSOR Gerde's trip to America was instigated by Mrs. Dahlman when she traveled to Germany, in 1949 ANAHEIM SPONSOR Gerde's trip to America was instigated by Mrs. Dahlman when she traveled to Germany, in 1949 to visit relatives there. She invited Gerde to plan a visit of at least two years and promised to be her sponsor. Immigration authorities stipulate that each immigrant have a sponsor who assumes responsibility for him so that there is no chance of his becoming a burden to the state. When Gerde finally made up her mind to come, it took five months to unravel the red tape necessary to obtain a visa. BY NORWEGIAN FREIGHTER Gerde arrived in New York on Nov. 4, having made the trip on a Norwegian freighter. She flew from New York to Los Angeles. A few days later, she applied for work at Kwikset and was hired. You see, Gerde has the equivalent of a junior college education and speaks fluent English. She knows shorthand and typing in both English and German and speaks four languages. After attending business college, she went to an interpreters school in Berlin and worked for an international sports news agency where she translated news from Scandinavian countries. She hurriedly left by train when the Russians came to Berlin in 1944, and discovered later that it was just about the last train out of the city. THINKS IN ENGLISH Gerde mastered the English language during the last few years while working in the American land commission office. She not only has developed the knack of thinking in English but lately NEW ARRIVAL—Gerde Hulek, in this country from Bremen, Germany for only two months, goes to work in the personnel department of the Kwikset Lock Company. A niece of Mrs. Louise Dahlman of Anaheim, Miss Hulek speaks fluent English. She finds Germany a sad place since so many old landmarks have been demolished and friends scattered. She is enthusiastic about Anaheim. Most of her spare time has been spent visiting relatives who live in the immediate area. "I like everything about this country," says Gerde, "and I particularly like Anaheim. I have been brought up in a large city and living more or less in the country at first seemed strange to me. But everyone here in Anaheim has been friendly to me. I love the informality." Gerde caused a mild sensation by applying for employment at Kwikset wearing long white gloves. That has been her last concession to the more formal foreign way of doing things. Once she became accustomed to the change in water and the food which she terms "very rich," she has devoted herself to becoming as American as possible. LIKES SNOW Of the many things that are so different here from her native land, Gerde Hulek singles these two for comment: California skiing conditions—go to the mountains at every opportunity to enjoy the fine skiing. The runs are shorter and steeper here and snow a bit softer. Anaheim men — "In Germany there are very young boys and many old men but few of my generation. The ability to pick an choose has rather spoiled the one that remain. It is fun to meet with my co-workers at Kwikset both the boys and the girls—refreshing to see so many nice young men about."

Messecar, son of the W. J. Messecars of Brea, formerly of Anaheim. Setting for the formal, candlelight rites was the St. Plus V Catholic church in Buena Park, last Thursday. Father Robert Ross, SSC from Westminster performed the blessing, assisted by the parish pastor, Father Frederick J. Kass. The main altar was beautiful with baskets of large poms, banked with white stock and ferns, and gold candelbra tied with satin bows. The side altars were decorated with small white poms and stock. The lovely bride given in marriage by her father, was gowned in traditional white slipper satin fashioned with a fitted bodice and a high nylon yoke and cowl of Chantilly lace. This matched the apron effect of her full skirt which was achieved with two ruffles of matching lace, gathered in the back to form a bustle. A twoyard court train gave a charming, regal effect to the gown. The finger tip illusion veil was held by a sweetheart crown of Chantilly, ornamented with pearl lily of the valley, and edged in lace. The bride's only ornament was her pearl necklace, a gift of the bridegroom. Accenting the gown was the bridal bouquet of hyacinths and lily of the valley, centered with a white orchid. For something new and blue the bride wore a Sacred Heart badge, given to her by the Sisters of Providence of Marywood school, from which she graduated last June.

Church Group Meets in Fullerton At Fowler Home Group 5 of the Presbyterian Women's Fellowship met at the home of its leader, Mrs. William H. Fowler, 202 N. Yale, on Thursday morning. During the business meeting plans for the year were discussed. Several sewing projects, including quilts, will commence in the near future. Mrs. Max Irwin, program chairman of the day, introduced Mrs. Marian Roy, who began the program by reading a chapter from "He Lives," by Perdue. This was a comparison of life to the metamorphosis of the eaterpillar. As the caterpillar broke from the cocoon, it seemed entangled in skeins of color, varying emotions were expressed by different colors. Then the discovery was made that the worm had become a butterfly, so Perdue wrote, do we experience many emotional trials before we reach maturity. Continuing her talk, Mrs. Roy told of one of the foremost Christian missionary-teachers, Dr. Frank Laubach. His great work began as a missionary in the remote sections of the Philippine Islands when he discovered that nearly all the natives were illiterate. He developed a process for transcribing their dialects into words; revolving rolls were made to teach instead of books. By this method it is possible to teach reading in a very brief time; and several millions of people have done so. At present Dr. Laubach is working in Africa. He believes that teaching to read and therefore to learn of the outside world is the most sanely progressive method of fighting Communism in primitive sections of the world. After this very interesting program, the fourteen ladies present Summer Camp Plans Made For Girl Scouts An Anaheim Girl Scout meeting was called recently by John Bovee, general camp chairman and Mrs. Peter Schmitz, established camp chairman, in order that final arrangements might be made for established camps this summer.
