OBLONG VIEWS (From an Egg-Shaped Head) By WALDO HUNTER. P.S.B. There is some talk going around about the fellow named Kelly who joined the Army and led the lift of Schine. Perhaps somewhere there is a school for the training of store clerks, but if so, its alumnae are not too plenteous. Seems that the retail division of all city chambers of commerce should include in their programs a coaching program for people who sell goods across counters. In the great majority of cases, the customer's only contact with a retail establishment is made through the person who shoves him his wrapped package and grabs the dough. In many (far too many) instances, this transaction is a cool, impersonal exchange of hard-chattel for hard-earned dollars, without even a "thank you" from the store's representative. As a case in point, I drove into a service station last week, had the attendant check the oil, squirt a pint of water into the radiator, and bought two gallons of gasoline. He said nothing, but from his demeanor it was evident that he considered this a personal affront. I should have "filled her up!" He didn't even wash the windshield. This lout is doing his employer no good. How did he know that I wouldn't be in the next day for 20 gallons of gas and a new generator or a set of tires? Their rest-rooms are probably 82 YEARS OF DEVOTION ANAHEIM VOLUME LXXXIII THE FESTIVAL CHOIR ABOVE, of 800 voices from 50 Orange county churches, will appear Sunday afternoon at 6 o'clock, presenting a free sacred concert to be conducted by Dr. Lara Hoggard, formerly with the Fred Waring staff. Participating Anaheim churches include the Evangelical United Brethren First Pector; ald Reeves Mrs. R Baptist; the attendant check the oil, squirt a pint of water into the radiator, and bought two gallons of gasoline. He said nothing, but from his demeanor it was evident that he considered this a personal affront. I should have "filled her up!" He didn't even wash the windshield. This lout is doing his employer no good. How did he know that I wouldn't be in the next day for 20 gallons of gas and a new generator or a set of tires? Their rest-rooms are probably dirty, too. The employee of any business establishment, retail or wholesale, should smile at the prospective customer, say "good morning" or at least "How areya?" And at this writing we believe that there is absolutely no case on record of anyone collapsing from spontaneous cardiac deficiency after saying "Thank you, come back again." Social amenities used on the family dog at home also sound nice around a store. I entered a local appliance store not too long ago check-book in hand and all worked up to buy a television set. The store manager was busy talking to what appeared to be a wholesale representative. I was left to stand idly by while he made his deal, which took nearly half an hour. When the manager at length got around to me I was at the door heading for another store. On the other hand, however, we encounter the clerk who goes to the opposite extreme. He must sell you something or else! You know the type. You enter a place just to "browse around" and from nowhere a hustler lunges at you insisting on a quick and immediate exchange. You say, "no, thanks, just looking around." Then he, with the hurt look of someone just whispered, retreats to some dim recess of the store, pretending to busy himself with the books or something. But as you inspect a necktie or look at some cuff links you know that he has you under surveillance. He's got you figured as a guy out to do his Christmas shoplifting early. I have experienced this predicament several times. Looking up from just "browsing" I have met the fishy, accusing stare of the shopkeeper and have felt panic. THE FESTIVAL CHOIR ABOVE, of 800 voices from 50 Orange county churches, will appear Sunday afternoon at 6 o'clock, preseeting a free sacred concert to be conducted by Dr. Lara Hoggard, formerly with the Fred Waring staff. Participating Anaheim churches include the Evangelical United County Choirs to Join in Anaheim Festival of Song More than 50 Orange County church choirs will join to sing in a festival Sunday afternoon in the Greek Theater in Anaheim City Park. More than 800 singers have registered to sing. It will include both junior and adult choirs. Dr. Lara Hoggard, for eight years conductor of the famed Fred Waring Pennsylvanians, will be the conductor. Dr. Hoggard is well known throughout the nation having served as guest conductor for many high school colleges and church music festivals in nearly every state in the union. His appearance at numerous choral clinics has been in demand for the demonstrating of the practical techniques which have been largely responsible for the success of the Fred Waring Glee Club. During the season 1952-53 Dr. Hoggard toured with his own concert organization, called "Festival of Song." The tour consisted of 85 concerts in 30 states. The group traveled more than 16,000 miles during the 15 weeks of engagements and was heard by some 200,000 people. Following the tour of "Festival of Song," Lara Hoggard resigned from the Waring organization as choral director of the "Pennsylvanians," audio director for television radio and recording and dean of the Waring Choral Workshops. The only affiliation maintained is in the capacity of consultant editor, Shawnee Press. Dr. Hoggard is now living in Southern California with his family. During the winter season his work will consist primarily of arranging, writing, and editing. There will be a limited number of engagements as conductor and DR. LARA HOGGARD sponsored by the Choral Orators' Guild of Orange County companies will be Patricia Marquart and Halsted McCormick. The public is cordially invited to attend the program which is for 6 p.m. New Women's Clubs Formed in Anaheim A new women's group had ed Anaheim club circles. Ailiary of the Anaheim Club started last Thursday when officers were named Exchangettes club at a meeting at the Cirq rest La Habra. Exchange vice president Frederick Klein invests following ladies in office: Wynn Friday, president: George Carter, vice-premier: He's got you figured as a guy out to do his Christmas shoplifting early. I have experienced this predicament several times. Looking up from just "browsing" I have met the fishy, accusing stare of the shopkeeper and have felt panic. The initial impulse is to bolt out the door, but this would imply guilt and in a trice you would have Mark Stephenson on your tail if they could find him in his office. Obviously, you can't just stand there and stare back. So, taking the only way out of an embarrassing impasse, you pick up the handiest article and buy it. Anything to get out. All on account of this, I have carted home a box of turtle food (we have no turtles), an antimacassar, a purple and orange lamp shade, and a boot jack (we have no boots). Things are getting pretty strained around the house, I might add. A copy of Oglethorpe's "Guide to English Dog Cemeteries" I threw out of the car window on the way home. I came by that thing while just "browsing around" a book store. Back to the original theme, and to employ a new twist on an old saw: "Let the seller beware." The war is over and it is now a buyer's market. And besides, the customer is almost right. VFW AUXILIARY BENEFIT CARD PARTY President Irene Brown served peach pie at the dessert card party given by the VFW Auxiliary at the VFW hall. The benefit affair was well attended and prizes for the card games went to Mrs. Lucille Lowe, Mrs. S. Kelly, Mrs. Catherine O'Brien, and C. Agren. Dr. Hoggard is now living in Southern California with his family. During the winter season his work will consist primarily of arranging, writing, and editing. There will be a limited number of engagements as conductor and lecturer for educational and professional organizations, festivals and workshops. This festival will include the largest group of singers ever to assemble in Orange County for a sacred concert of this kind. It is a new era in long distance communications will start for Anaheim telephone users shortly after midnight Saturday when Pacific Telephone places into service its $4½ million operator toll dialing machine in Los Angeles. Special switching equipment has been installed and tested in the Anaheim telephone office that ties into the huge electronic device permitting long distance operators to place calls for customers direct to distant cities without the help of other operators along the route or at the destination. Most long distance calls will go through less than a minute, manages Herb Perry said today, and many completed in only a few seconds. To do its job, the operator toll dialing machine uses various pieces of equipment with graphic-sounding names like senders, markers, decoder-translators and, crossbar switches. The Los Angeles installation largest and third to be established on the West Coast, and one of 90 located in every state in the U.S., is capable of handling 20,000 calls per hour.

S OF DEVOTION TO ALL THAT IS GOOD IN ANAHEIM HEM GAZETTE ANAHEIM, ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, MAY 27, 1954 'Success Story' to Show Richfield's $40,000,000 Improvement May 28 After 150 live telecasts of "Success Story", to show their neighbors at work, the sponsoring Richfield Oil Corporation will visit their own refinery via KTTV (11) Friday, May 28, at 7:00 p.m.—the show being done on film. "Same $40,000,000 has just been spent at the refinery on new equipment and on modernization, and Richfield plans to demonstrate why their refinery is now the last word in the West and how it makes America's most advanced gasoline," says Ken Peters, who leads TV viewers on the weekly explorations of "Success Story." "The Richfield refinery is shown on film because making some scenes was possible only during construction. The signs in service stations which read: "Stop Your Motor — No Smoking!" also have something to do with not taking television equipment into a refinery for a live story." Even photography from flash bulbs is taboo."

Avocado Telecast On This Sunday An event of considerable interest to Southland avocado growers will be a "teleview," on Channel 2, Sunday, May 30, 11:30-12:00 a.m., of the first "re-constituted" Fuerte avocado trees. All orchard trees of the Fuerte variety, prior to this development, have been propagated upon sexual-variant seedling rootstocks. Many years of "root-relationship" research has resulted in a method of vegetatively reproducing rootstocks from root cuttings taken from the root-systems of outstanding producers of this variety. It is indeed a coincidence that the first home of the Fuerte in California should also be the focal point of research that resulted in the development of the first "Standard" in avocado rootstocks. Thanks to the individual-tree production records maintained by Mr. Kenneth Casper, President, Orange County Farm Bureau, Yorba Linda, it has been possible to clear up much of the mystery surrounding the erratic and unpredictable producing behavior of the Fuerte. From the five "outstanding" producers in the Casper grove one was selected to be the source tree Marywood Girls' Musical Debut Miss Shirley Schmitz and Miss Ann Fabian, students of Marywood High School, made their musical debut last week in piano recitals which were followed by receptions in the school parlors.

AUHS Homemakers Child Care Project Included in a unit on child care in the senior and advanced homemaking classes at AUHS is a three-week period play school on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, maintained by the students with the help of the Sears Roebuck Foundation, which donated $75 to help foster the idea. With that money, the girls bought a little table, chairs, toys, and a painting easel. The class is under the supervision of Neva Solt. To find children for the project, the girls canvassed the few blocks adjacent to the campus. They then let the parents decide, over a period of a few days, whether or not to let their children participate in the play school. This year, the girls have nine children, six boys and three girls, between 3½ and 5 years of age. The students maintain a program or reporting sheet, to give the parents after the project is finished On Tuesday of each week. Mrs. Webb, the school nurse, examines each of the children for any possible illnesses or contagious diseases. On Friday, May 28, the girls will end the project with a special party for the children. The State Department of Education suggested the plan to Miss Solt a few years ago and with Mr. Demaree's approval; it was then initiated.
