Post Will Seek Jobs For Unemployed Vets
At a meeting of Anaheim Post, American Legion, last night, the California Orange show was endorsed and a vote of confidence given the management.
The post also voted to co-operate in a plan advanced by Director A. W. Reeves, of the C. of C., for the establishment of a free employment bureau for ex-servicemen, a number of whom are out of work in Los Angeles and are being fed by the M. & M. Assn there. The local post will assist in forming a bureau to help the situation in Los Angeles and a Legion man will be on the job each afternoon at the C. of C. offices to assist in directing unemployed veterans to jobs.

LEGION VAUDEVILLE
SHOW BIG AFFAIR
Aiming to eclipse any theatrical production either amateur or professional ever seen in Anaheim, the American Legion benefit vaudeville show to be given at the Grand on the evenings of April 5th and 6th, bids fair to set a new standard for pretentiousness in Orange-co entertainment.
With a cast of more than 50 talented amateurs and professionals, the ten diversified acts upon the program comprise an exceedingly well balanced bill, which runs the gamut of vaudeville with kaleidescopic rapidity.
Ranging from a novel animated song number, designed to display effectively the pulchritudinous charms of ten of Orange-co's fairest daughters, to a one-act comedy with a cast of dozen clever character actors, the program includes dancing, singing, instrumental and dramatic numbers admirably blended.
The entire production is under the personal supervision of Ray Hicks, a professional actor and director of long experience, who will appear in a monologue-written especially for the occasion in which he will, humorously delineate the real or fancied follies of a number of people of local prominence.
NOTED ARTIST WILL SING HERE SUNDAY
At the Sunday morning service in the Methodist White Temple, a special feature of the musical numbers will be a tenor solo by Mr. Ellis Rhodes, distinguished artist and vocal teacher, formerly of Los Angeles but now residing in Santa Ana. Mr. Rhodes has a voice of wide range and exquisite tonal quality, and sings with ease and expression.
He has trained the United States in concert, and everywhere has met with pronounced success. He has had the benefit of the best American and some of the most famous European instructors, and his appearance in Anaheim on Sunday morning will be a treat for those who enjoy the best in music.
COLORADO FOLKS BUY GROVE CHICK RANCH
GARDEN GROVE, March 30—Mr. and Mrs. Al Wilson, who recently arrived here from Colorado, and who for the past few days have been visiting at the home of their nephew, R. B. Richey, are so favorably impressed with Garden Grove and its wonderful possibilities, that they have decided to locate here permanently.

"Third—General Macready insisted, and France and McCoy agreed, that all work of reconstructing destroyed buildings due to civil war would be carried on solely under American direction, assisted by moderate Irish business men. France and McCoy, as an evidence of good faith of the Americans and the genuine desire of the American people to relieve Irish distress, urged that British engineers inspect their books regularly to see every dollar sent to Ireland was spent on relief work, irrespective of the politics or religion of those in need.
Fourth—General Macready intimated strongly that the American committee should work independently and under American supervision expert in reconstruction and rehabilitation work.
Fifth—France and McCoy are well satisfied with Gen. Macready's approval of their suggestions for the reconstruction program.
Sixth—France and McCoy and their Quaker assistants have been given unrestricted right to survey conditions in 20 counties and will soon issue a full preliminary report, showing in an uncensored manner the economic situation of Ireland. This will be the first document of its kind compiled by neutral observers.
Seventh—In addition to the cooperation General Macready the American Quakers have received the assistance of Sir John Anderson, under-secretary for Ireland; Sir Ernest Clark, of Belfast, and other leading British representatives in Ireland. They have been sponsored by Fred Dupont, American counsel at Dublin. They have been permitted to visit the marital law area.
In conclusion both British authorities and Irish of all classes have inside their differences and given Quaker unit of the American committee for relief in Ireland full and confidential information of the situation in so far as it affected the needs of the non-combatants. I believe that as a result of these frank conversations there is a full understanding on both sides and a very general mutual sincere wish that a committee of American business men and engineers go to Ireland on the mission of economic peace, a condition that will never be arrived at unColorado Folks Buy Grove Chick Ranch
Garden Grove, March 30—Mr. and Mrs. Al Wilson, who recently arrived here from Colorado, and who for the past few days have been visiting at the-home of their nephew, R. B. Richey, are so favorably impressed with Garden Grove and its wonderful possibilities, that they have decided to locate here permanently.
Thursday they closed a deal for the purchase of the W. C. Stokes residence and their three-acre tract of East Stanford-ave, the deal being made thru the King and Reafsnyder, local agents.
Mr. Wilson intends to equip the place as a model chicken ranch.
Orange Co Gives To Starving
In Santa Ann, exclusive of suma collected in the churches, there has been contributed $257 for the relief of starving Chinese, according to figures given out In Los Angeles by A. C. Way, chairman of the So. Califf committee of the China famine fund. Huntington Beach has contributed $395, Yorba Linda, $66, Garden Grove $11, Anaheim $182.50. To date $2.405,359.45 has been received by the American committee for Chinese relief from sources throughout the United States.
Declare Death Accidental
A coroner’s jury which conducted an inquiry held over the body of Dan Kelly, of Huntington Beach, this morning at the funeral parlor of Backs and Terry, pronounced the decedent as having come to his death by reason of a fracture of the skull, accidental, while in the employ of the Republic Oil Co.
Till the suffering of human beings is relieved, and the subsistence of the needy guaranteed for a period of sufficient length to enable negotiations for peace to be conducted.
In fact it is not too much to say that peace in Ireland is dependent upon the activity of the American committee for relief in Ireland, and no movement toward peace has ever been looked upon with such confidence.

on Endorses Valencia Show
VALENCIA ORANGE
SHOW POSTER VERY
STRIKING DESIGN
Motif is Beautiful Girl With Apron
Full of Golden Citrus Fruit.
Owing to the short time the sketch
of the California Valencia orange
show, 1921, poster was in Anaheim
yesterday, only a few were able to
see this real clever design. The
sketch was approved by the committee
and returned for printing. It will be done in six colors and finished with varnish coat. The poster,
which is to launch the California Valencia orange show is freely admitted to be a little more striking than anything thus far attempted in exhibition publicity.
Taking as a motif, a girl of pleasant countenance and other dimensions with an apron full of beautiful Valencias, it sounds the keynote of the purpose for which the show is to be an annual feature. In the lower fore-ground, is a stately senorita, indicative of the phase of the Youth, Down to Last $2, Attempts Suicide
George Dunn, 21, oil-worker, native of Pennsylvania, was picked up unconscious on Spurgeon-st, Santa Ana, last night by police, alleged to have taken chloroform with suicidal intent. He was taken to the Santa Ana community hospital, where first aid was administered and today was removed to the county hospital, where he was recovering.
Police report he had only $2 in his pocket and that he stated he had sought work unsuccessfully.
BIG MANUFACTURER OF CHICAGO HERE

Taking as a motif, a girl of pleasant countenance and other dimensions with an apron full of beautiful Valencias, it sounds the keynote of the purpose for which the show is to be an annual feature. In the lower fore-ground, is a stately senorita, indicative of the valencia phase of the name. The young lady with the oranges is just about to descend the grand staircase carpeted with a covering of indigo blue, which extends very well across the face of the poster and the back-ground is in blue, black, yellow and red, showing glimpses of the interior of the exposition with oranges and lemons on racks and in feature exhibits and outlines the interested spectators who are viewing them. The text of the poster is confined to the name of the show, the holding dates and the place in which it is to be held, with a catch line at the foot reading: "The Blue Ribbon Event."
On or about April 15th, these posters will begin to appear in the windows of the most prominent merchant in Los Angeles and other larger cities, and arrangements have been made with the Southern Pacific, Santa Fe and Salt Lake railways for similar exhibition in all of their ticket offices in California, Arizona and New Mexico. They will be distributed no farther east than El Paso except in the ticket offices maintained by these roads in eastern and western metropolis.
PLAN ANAHEIM NIGHT AT EVANGELIST MEETINGS
Dr. and Mrs. F. W. Collins, of the John E. Brown college, of Siloam Springs, Ark., who have been spending several weeks in Anaheim, leave today for Huntington Beach, where they will devote some time to the interests of the college.
Both are charged with enthusiasm over Anaheim, which they characterize as one of the very busiest and brightest places they have visited.
Dr. Collins is the editor of the "Southwestern Magazine," and says that he will advertise Anaheim in the next issue of the publication, which goes all over the country.
The college at present stands in need of books and musical instruments, and those who have any standard publications which they can spare, or musical instruments which are not serving their purpose, may leave them with Mrs. Geo. Sloop, of 204 N. Olive, who will see that they are forwarded.
Inasmuch as Evangelist Brown is to open a large tabernacle meeting in Glendale on the 17th of April, it is proposed that a delegation from Anaheim shall go over to the meet-
OF CHICAGO HERE
Clark D. Osborn, manufacturer of gloves at Chicago, was a visitor at Anaheim C. of C. this afternoon. He has been wintering at Los Angeles for several years and is "sold" to California, lock, stock and barrel.
Mr. Osborn was glad to notice, he said, that Anaheim has such good C. of C. quarters. He recounted many phases in which the Association of Commerce of Chicago had brought men together and built up that mighty metrololis "in jig time." He thinks California destiny will be wrought quickly. Mr. Clark is a man of importance in his great city. He is allied with every public-spirited movement and has found profit, as well as pleasure in his intimate identification with public work.
"I am particularly impressed with Anaheim. This section of California holds great promise," he said.

Still, there was coodles of gas shooting thru that main to Long Beach. Presumably gas meters were being installed over there, don't you know!
But it's a long lane that has no turning! The worm will turn, et cetera.
Now, outraged ranchers have circulated a petition, obtained 20 signatures and fired it into the railroad commission office in Los Angeles and have received assurance the matter will receive immediate attention.
It's always darkest before dawn!
The petitioners say they could have obtained many more signatures had they taken the time. What they want is gas.

C. S. Thomas, one of the most prominent geologists of California, has resigned as assistant and consulting geologist with the Union Oil Co. Mr. Thomas has established an office in the Union Oil-bldg in L. A. and will specialize in the geology of So. Calif.
Geology to Thomas is an exact science. Called upon to pass on a property he will go over it just like a doctor goes over a patient. In a short time he will tell you whether there is oil on your land or not. He does not go to the trouble to write a 10 or 20-page opinion as many geologists have the habit of doing.
Thomas entered the service of the Union's engineering department ten years ago, and was made assistant geologist to W. W. Orcutt early in 1914. Thomas' work as a geologist with the Union has been particularly noteworthy. It was Thomas who located the famous Chapman gusher, a well that came in doing $5000 barrels and gave to So. Calif. its second greatest oil field. As a consulting geologist Thomas has had wide experience, and in his present position certainly has a wonderful opportunity to render great service to the petroleum industry.
REDS VICTORIOUS IN PITCHED BATTLE AT GROEBERS TODAY
Situation Generally Unchanged: Some Middle Towns Cleaned Up; Outbreaks Reported Elsewhere
BERLIN, March 30—German rebels defeated the military and security police in a pitched battle near Groebers today.
The Reds were armed with machine guns and hand grenades and used them with deadly effect.
Two officers and 10 men of the security police were killed and more than 30 were wounded.
The police were forced to retreat, leaving large industrial plants in the hands of the rebels.
Twenty-eight communists were killed in heavy fighting between rebels and security police near Gaelsburg, in Westphalia. The police casualties in this battle were not given.
The situation generally is unchanged. While the "green," or security, police have cleaned up some middle Germany towns which had been hot-beds of communists disorders, outbreaks were reported from other regions.

S. A. DONATES $1080 TO AID WAR HEROES
Santa Anas have contributed $1,050.22 to the fund being raised to aid disabled soldiers, it is announced by M. B. Wellington, commander of Santa Ana Post No. 131, American Legion. "We hope to raise very close to $1500 by the time the campaign closes Saturday of this week," said Wellington.
The money being raised will go toward building a home in Los Angeles for disabled soldiers. This home is planned as a place where veterans suffer from wounds or who may be out of work, may go pending the arrival of governmental aid.
S. A. ROTARIANS ON PROGRAM
The Santa Ana Rotary club quartet with songs, Clarence A. Gustlin with a piano solo and Robert L. Brown with a vocal solo, and Mac O.

UNION MAKES ROTARY RECORD
The Union has made a rotary record for the Huntington Beach field by drilling Newlands No. 1 to 5000 feet without a mishap worth monetarioy.
Twenty-eight communities were killed in heavy fighting between rebels and security police near Gevelsburg, in Westphalia. The police casualties in this battle were not given.
The situation generally is unchanged. While the "green," or security, police have cleaned up some middle Germany towns which had been hot-beds of communists disorders, outbreaks were reported from other regions.
SCOUTS OF TROOP ONE HOLD MEETING
The Scouts of troop 1, Anaheim, held their weekly meeting at the "Y" hut last night. Elmer Claibaugh took the boys out and gave them another lesson on semaphore signalling.
Later the Scout games were played and a good time was enjoyed by all. Kenneth Warner and Lawrence Higgins were initiated into the troop last night.
FEAR STOCK BEETS MIXED WITH SUGAR
With patches in beet fields showing crown of pink color, growers and sugar factory men are investigating to determine whether they are stock or sugar beets. Result of tests will be known in a week or ten days. The condition is not considered alarming, as it is limited to a few fields. The crown of sugar beets is white. Some growers are said to have already replowed such beets, not caring to await results of the tests.
E. M. Smiley, manager of the Santa Ana Sugar Co., today stated the pink crown might be due to shallow planting.
"I believe the condition is due to shallow planting, some farmers seedling shallow because of light rainfall. The crown may have been turned pink by the sun," said Smiley.
"It is possible that in 400 or 500 acres of sugar beet seed one or two sacks of stock seed might have become mixed. This has occurred a time or two since the war started."
Clyde Ellis, Smeltzer, has 50 acres where the pink crown has been noticed. He is awaiting result of the tests.
Robert Geesler, a neighbor, has plowed under five acres.

UNION MAKES BOTARY RECORD
The Union has made a rotary record for the Huntington Beach field by drilling Newlands No. 1 to 5000 feet without a mishap worth mentioning. The drilling is now being done with 4-inch drill pipe and the achievement is attracting consider-able attention on account of the fact that fe wholes are drilled to 5000 feet with the rotary. Careful work did the thing. K. A. Hoxie, an old timer with the Union, is in charge of the work. By the way, the information is added that at 5000 feet Newlands No. 1 drilling in a hard shell and is not showing any oil at all or any signs of it.
