8 Anaheim Gazette THURSDAY, JUNE 11, 1951 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 25 Years Ago Miss Jeanette Strodthoff and Carl Wittenberg of Los Angeles were married in that city at Plymouth Congregational church on Tuesday evening by Dr. Frank Dyer. The bride is the daughter of Henry Strodthoff and the granddaughter of the late Johanna Strodthoff, one of the pioneers of Anaheim. She is also the granddaughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Fay, old time residents of this city. Mr. and Mrs. Wittenberg will make their home at 170½ S. Sycamore st., Los Angeles. Rev. Charles E. Maimann is the new rector of Michael's Episcopal church, having been appointed to take the place of Rev. A. G. H. Bode, who recently resigned to accept a pulpit at Pasadena. The new rector comes here from San Bernardino, where he had charge of a church for many years. William Stork has been confined to his home for some time past with illness. His many friends hope to see him out again shortly in the enjoyment of his usual good health. Mr. and Mrs. William Dolan enjoined the Four-Four's club on Thursday evening at their home on W. Broadway, Mrs. Ralph Me. 75 Years Ago It is like parting with an old friend to see the Mission grape vines uprooted to make place for other varieties which have proved superior, but the feeling of regret is tempered by the knowledge that the liquid produced by the vineyards of Southern California will acquire still greater fame by reason of the superiority of the product from the later planted and better grapes. It is conceded that the wine from the Mission grape, although good, cannot compete in the market with that made from these newer varieties and our vineyardists are determined to keep up the reputation of their wines by substituting the superior for the inferior grape. Among the men who are accepting the inevitable is Mr. Langenburger. He has just uprooted 40 acres of Mission vines and is planting in their stead Zinfandel, Malvoise, and Orleans varieties. The first named is recognized as par excellence as the grape for the manufacture of claret wine (if you don't believe this statement, ingratiate yourself into the good graces of Mr. F. A. Korn and get him to let you taste his claret.) The Malvoise is a port wine grape, and the Orleans is a white wine grape.

Broadway. Mrs. Ralph McFadden and P. A. Yungbluth won prizes for high score in the game of whist. Dinner was served at 7 o'clock after which the evening was devoted to the usual garage of cards. Miss June Borchert, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Borchert of Garden Grove road, and George Murray Bland of Berkeley were married in Oakland on Sunday morning in the presence of a number of friends. The marriage is the culmination of a romance begun soon after Miss Borchert went to Oakland to become a student in Mills college where she is now in her third year.

Korn and get him to let you taste his claret.) The Malvoise is a port wine grape, and the Orleans is a white wine grape. The Orleans is something new in this section, it's cultivation heretofore having been confirmed to the northern part of the state. On the same 40 acres on which these vines will be planted orange trees to the number of 1500 will be set out at intervals. The work of planting these trees will begin next month. Seedling trees will be planted and after they have taken root they will be budded to choice varieties. A large vulture was captured at the sheep camp of Mr. Charles Smith, near Orangethorpe a few days ago. It was evidently fatigued by a very long passage through the upper regions of the atmosphere, and when taken offered little resistance. On account of its great size, 14 feet from tip to tip, and other characteristic is thought to be a condor... The Gazette office desires to return thanks to Mr. H. S., Austin for cleaning away the weeds and fixing the sidewalk in front of the printing office. While we appreciate the kindness, we would much rather have the path to our office worn smooth by the hurrying feet of delinquent subscribers, hastening to gladden; the hearts and fill the pockets of impecunious editors than to be obliged to impose upon the good nature of the gentleman. There was a very comfortable dinner party at the home of Dr. James Ellis on Sunday. The doctor understands such things and there was pleasure for all present. Mr. Jonathan Watson advertises this morning that he has some fine pasture land which he desires to either rent or sell. He will also take sheep to pasture on shares. Hon. B. D.
