16 Anaheim Gazette THURSDAY, MARCH 19, 1953 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago Says the Santa Barbara Press: Anaheim is suffering from an epidemic of tramps. These fastidious epicures are insulted by the offer of anything but the choicest bill of fare and while they are above labor themselves they will look with complacency upon your patient efforts to supply the wants of their inner man. Like the philosophical Indian who watched the paleface woodchopper swing his ax, they think it is pleasant to see the white man work. Out of a profound sympathy for the people of Anaheim, we suggest they have these vagabonds promptly arrested, and as a deadly punishment to the tramps, and a protection to the community against further invasions, compel them, collectively and individually to pronounce the Gazette's fatal, destructive, decimating word, "Kleinigkeiten." Billous fever carried off John Wan. A Chinaman, on Wednesday. He was buried the afternoon of the same day with great eclat. The steamer Newport. Captain Pierce, will sail from San Francisco, Thursday for San Pedro, and goods may be entered for transportation up to 4 p.m. of the day of departure. This will be the first trip of the Newport to Wilmington harbor under the new regime. On Tuesday Mr. Stappenback put into its place the elevator to be used in the new store of P. Davis & Bro. The Alden Fruit preserving company of Anaheim paid 70 cents per cent for all Mission grapes delivered at the factory. The warehouse at the Landing is filled with grain, and the agent this recently purchased property at the corner of Broadway and Los Angeles sts. and will immediately begin the erection of a commodious residence. On the opposite corner Dr. H. A. Johnston will soon build an office and residence. Major Finley came over from Santa Ana on Monday night to preside at the election held in Armory hall for captain of Company E., Captain J. F. Ahlborn having disqualified. There were 35 of the boys in attendance and a unanimous vote was cast for Lt. Herman Stern who takes the position at once. This caused a vacancy for first lieutenant and recruit Lt. Zius was elected first lieutenant. First sergeant Kroger received 32 out of the 35 votes cast for second lieutenant. There will soon be a general shifting about of non-commissioned officers and Corporal Sprock Fossel would be a fine top sergeant but will not be able to serve as he leaves shortly for Sacramento. The boys pride themselves upon their attendance, good drills and marksmanship. Next Sunday has been set for the company's silhouette shoot at the El Modena range and the tally-ho will leave the armory at 1 o'clock sharp. On Saturday evening a farewell party was tendered to Sylvain and Edmond Cohen, who leave shortly with their parents, Mr. and Mrs. Hypoliti Cohen to reside in Los Angeles. The "Middles" of the high school gave the party at the home of their teacher, Miss Kate Rae. A very delicious supper was served and all present had a delightful time. Those present were Sylvain Cohen. Edmond Cohen, Eugene Bayha, John Boege, Ray Clabaugh, Earl Crawford, Fritz Eckstein, Alvin Wash. Some 12,000 acres Island were being conserved around the entire northwest of the island from there. Since I received more telegrams and telephone from people in my district this naval installation seems only fitting that we make my position clear matter. When I first heard about lease was all ready to be and I requested the Unretary of Navy, Charles as, to suspend the matter we could examine it more. In this request I full cooperation. The government already San Clemente Island, Island, and San Nicholas and I wanted to find one of these islands could used instead of Catalina sured the Navy Department if the installation at Catalina absolutely indispensable national defense, I would not form my constituents. After further examination Department of the Navy mined that the use of Island was NOT absolutely sary and so the entire prefar as Cattfina island is ed, has definitely been ted ed. I am certain you have the dispatches in the press know that some of you feel that your congressmen standing in the way of your defense just satisfy a fish sports-fishermen and men. I assure you this secondary interest to me; it is my duty as your representative to stop the continuing pansion of the various members of government when expansion is not necessary. I shall maintain this whether it is in regard to lina island or any other nation or acquisition of property by any of the fellows... On Tuesday Mr. Stappenback put into its place the elevator to be used in the new store of P. Davis & Bro. The Alden Fruit preserving company of Anaheim paid 70 cents per cent for all Mission grapes delivered at the factory. The warehouse at the Landing is filled with grain, and the agent, Mr. Hull, has his hands filled with business. Rev.

Also that a colony has been formed for the purchase of 2000 acres of the Bixley tract, lying east of Wilmington and that 1500 acres have already been bought. The colony is composed of men who mean business and we expect soon to see a flourishing agricultural district established there. Track laying in the Santa Ana extension of the Southern Pacific railroad has been finished and in a short time trains will commence to run regularly to the town of San Luisa using the Anaheim train schedule for the present.

The strike was made on Tuesday afternoon at 4 o'clock. The gas was kept burning all night and yesterday the boys cooked their breakfast with it. The company will put up a standard rig-and go down 1000 feet in search of oil which it is persuaded exists in abundance at the site of the well. L. E.

This plant is the successor of the Anaheim Beef Co., which collapsed a year ago and was taken over by C. C. Chapman the heaviest creditor. The old company has been refuvenated, new buildings erected, new equipment installed and modern methods of caring for and curing meats introduced. The plant held open house Sunday and an invitation extended the public to visit the institution. More than 4000 persons responded and passed through the plant. Employees were present to explain the processes by which the animals were turned into steak, roasts, hamburger, pork chops, hams, bacon and sausage. All lady visitors were presented with generous slabs of bacon cured by the company.

JOY LANE (In Oakland Show) Joy Lane Opens At Oakland Automobile Show Joy Lane, of Anaheim, best known as "The Girl With a C science," opened last Friday at a ten-day stellar engagement the auto show in Oakland. Various guest stars during engagement up north will be Hope, Frances Langford, K Starr and the Will Mastin troop. Direct from a triumphant engagement at Larry Potter's Hollywood, the beautiful, wilful redhead with cute little girl voice should take Oakland by storm. A discovery of Ted Fio Ri Joy was recently featured at the Wilton hotel in Long Beach and won well deserved plaudits. She has been seen on many TV shows and will shortly be starred in a musical TV of her own title "The Joy Lane Show" and it will emanate from Hollywood. Joy Lane is the daughter of Robert B. Wurgaft of the Siliz Corp., citrus processors in Anaheim. The family resides at 31 N. Palm. Washington Reports BY CONGRESSMAN JAMES B. UTT Some 12,000 acres at the Northwest end of Catalina Island were being considered for a highly secret installation which would require the closing of the adjacent ocean for a distance of three miles seaward around the entire northwest end of the island from the isthmus. Since I received more than 100 telegrams and telephone calls from people in my district opposing this naval installation, it seems only fitting that I should make my position clear on this matter. When I first heard about it, the lease was all ready to be signed, and I requested the Under Secretary of the Navy, Charles Thomas, to suspend the matter until we could examine it more closely. In this request I had his full cooperation. The government already owns San Clemente Island, Anacapa Island, and San Nicholas Island and I wanted to find out why one of these islands could not be used instead of Catalina. I assured the Navy Department that if the installation at Catalina was absolutely indispensable to national defense, I would not oppose the project and I would so inform my constituents. After further examination, the Department of the Navy determined that the use of Catalina island was NOT absolutely necessary and so the entire project, so far as Catfisha island is concerned, has definitely been terminated. I am certain you have read the dispatches in the press, but I know that some of you might feel that your congressman was standing in the way of national defense just to satisfy a few selfish sports-fishermen and yachtmen. I assure you this was of secondary interest to me. I feel it is my duty as your representative to stop the continued expansion of the various departments of government when that expansion is not necessary, and shall maintain this position whether it is in regard to Catalina island or any other installation or acquisition of property. Harry Fox Set To Leave for Midwest Tour Harry Fox of the H. R. Fox Appliance Co., 411 E. Center st., Anaheim, will leave at noon March 22 on a T. W. A. Constellation for Wichita, Kan., and Chicago, Ill. He will be the guest of the Coleman Co., largest and oldest manufacturer of heating and lighting equipment, for whom he is a dealer for this area. Fox will accompany several others the budget without doing violence to our economic system. The British emissaries, Anthony Eden and R. A. Butler, chancellor of the exchequer, came to America with the idea the United States should put up several billion dollars for an international bank for the exchange of world currencies, but after several conferences with the hard-fisted, five-star general in the White House, they returned without any commitments from America. They did leave us a commitment that they would immediately invoke controls on shipping strategic materials to Communist China. This is a refreshing change of heart. HILGENEELD MORTUARY Faithful Courteous Service 120 E. Broadway, Anaheim PHONE 4105 On the tenth of March, after hours of debate, the resolution making the Territory of Hawaii the 49th state was passed by the Lower House by an overwhelming majority. It will probably be a month before the matter is heard in the Senate, as I believe the tidallands bill will take precedence there. The hearings in the Lower House on the tidallands bill have been concluded in the subcommittee and the hole committee and will be sent to the floor sometime within a week or two, and I believe this bill will receive favorable congratulation there. I testified before the subcommittee of the House Judiciary on the importance of restoring to the states a historical territorial boundary under the doctrine of states Rights. On Tuesday of this week, I met with the members of the subcommittee of the Interior Department, together with the Under Secretary of the Navy in an ef- PRICES EFFECTIVE THURS. • FRI. • SAT.
