Don' t forget that a fancy bird can be ruined in the cooking.

Nothing can give that brown roasted delicate outside crust

as well as a gas range roasting oven, with its automatic

temperature control. You can' t go wrong with a modern

gas range for roasting a turkey. And that goes for frying,

baking and broiling as well.

CimiSTMA.S DKCORATIONS I do not know what the plans are

for Christmas decorations' In East Haven and Branford. But I modestly suggest that they, be omitted this year. We are practical­ly In war. It will soon become a matter of great difficulty lo get the money and material and labor that win bo necessary to do our part. Things that are not necessary should be rigidly curtailed. Soon the Red Cross drlye will be on. '^'here Is no organization so worthy of aid as Is that one. The Christ­mas seals for the victims of tuber­culosis will scon bo brought to us. Then East Haven has a plan to send gifts to their boys who are In service. Before we have time to turn around we will be face to face with the new taxes. The rising cost of living Is an ever present problem,-Under these clrcumstailces I think " ' authoritatively speak It would bo thf> nart of wisdom and " '1'='' "s 10 per cent of •

Dr, Ketulall ISmcrson has writ-en a very infornnitivo article on he causes of tuhorculosis, in (i ate issue of Mfe and Health nuig: izine. He endoavors to answer lome ot, the leading (lucstions •vhich often remain a mystery to he average jjcrson.

"No matter how poor^ how run lown, malnourished, uvorworkodj )r badly housed you um.v' bo, you ,vill not have tuberculosis unless ,hp germ gains enlrance to your lody," he says. " I t is the tubor-:ule bacill\is alone that causes tu-lerculosis, and the only way to 3\'qvcnl the,, diseasp frou) doYclpp-ng is to eradicate these germs .'ronv the world. , A

"Tuberc\dosis is .eniiineif^,, a' .'nuijly disease. Obvion,s)y/ the •onson for this is that tuberculo­us, being an iufectioub disease, is nost likely to pass from one mem-jcr of the family to others with ivhom |io is .in intimate contact,

"The old belief that lubcrculo-lis 'runs in families' and is hercd-tary has long since been explod-.'d. If we, look on the germ of ,\ihcrculosis as the .seed and the luputn lungs aa the .soil, wo may lay that the soil varies in its fcr-:ility for the growth of the ;enn from pcrso.n to person. I'hus there uuiy be some tamily .ack of ability to inhibit this • rowth or to kill off even a small unnbor ot invaders. The lesson Tom this is that those in whose junilies tuberculosis has been ,nevalenl tor some generations U'o under special obligation to ivatch their,health and to avoid jontact with known eases ot the lisease,''

Or, Kmersun point,s out that 'teeping pliysically fit is import-uit in combating tuberculosis, nul that being .run down opens jhannols tor the entrance of dis-anse, precisely as tbe holes in worn-out shoes allow moisture to enter.

If you suffer from " tha t tired fueling" or have other symptoms i|ulicating a physical maladjust-aicut, see your doctor at once. It Is to the credit of the mcj.lical pro­fession that it is as much interest­ed iu preventing disease, as it is in ofteoting cures when disease has been contracted.

WHEN toMORROW COMES "HoAv arc we going to find .jobs when this emergency is over?" Thut's n thought in tl\c minds of millions of nion und women

who arc now working in defense factories alt over the country. What will happen to them when Aincrica boats its swords into plowshares!

Industry is tackling that problijm right now, along wi th the doz­ens ot other problems created by defense production itself. It 's lay­ing plajis for a speedy change-over to incrcusecl civilian mimufactur-in(i-NVhcn this,eniergciicy i.s ended.

Kven while they're,busy turning out more and better armaments, miuiy companies are studying defense inventions, trying to figure tfXti, peace-time applications for them. At tjie sumo time they're con-tiiiliing their custoinary rescareli on civilian articles. They're devel­oping ne\y produjitS pf eypry descriptioii-^deyeloping them right up tp flic point where tlicy can be init ou the market. Only, i\\stead of putting.them on the marltct now, they're storing them away on the shelf. AVhen this emergency ends, Vhoso new products will be taken ^down and put into production inuucdiatoly.

.Pacts like, these indicate that indiistry, as usual, is doing its job totliiyand planning ahead-for its job tomorrow. And when tomorrow comes, it will have nniny new articles to nuunifucturo. In nuinufactur iug them it will be able lo create new jobs and give us all more of the comforts and couvonienccs ot life that we Americans want.

DEFENSE WAGES Many pf the pay iucvo(iscs that American employees have recent­

ly received Imvo been based on the rising cost of living. It 's true that iho cost of living has gone up—S.fi per cent, siuee the llrst of the year. Biit labor's'hoiii'ly ciiirfiiugs liiive ad\N\ncC& just'\a1jMt"l\vic'o'"tiiat (11,3 per cent). . , : , . . . , . . . . . ' .

A fact like that suggests tlpij; employees and labor unions, when they seek unusual wage increases during America's defense progi-am, (U'O in danger of ijstahlishing unfairly high wage rates. Such a policy is filled with many complications, tor labor and for everyone else iu America. „ . , . . . .

There are times, of course, when iucreasod earnings for ein-ployees is both uocc-ssary, and desirable. When that is true, however, they should be made iii almost every case in the form ()t temporary wage bonuses rather than increases in basic wage rates'.

•We Amerieans must realize that a continuous rise in hourly rates is da"i^orpu-s. It adds to the cost of goods, forcing prices up and help­ing to create an inflationary trend. But il does more than that. Unless it's checked, it ma.y load to serious post-war complications,

.After this cmorgenoy government prders will drop shi\rply; in­dustrial income will decrease. If Anicricu is faced then with'wage rates fixed at high, uneconomic levels at a time when other costs pi'iues and profits are falling, a wave of unemployment will be the in-ivitable result—and widespread unemployment after the war is one ot the things that we must try al all costs to avoid.

KEJECrED DRAFTEES It Is said that a very large num­

ber of the boy who have been drafted have' been ' rejected for physical or mental detects. My re­collection Is that It Is about. 407c. At any raet It Is very large. It this is true It Is moi-e alarming than any threat ot war. Wliat is the matter with these young men? Of course, the government does not say. No one- desires to send them back to their home town under a cloud. So,the matter Is kept very quiet. Certainly in the past fifty years sanitation lias Improved, liv­ing conditions have Improved Medical science and surgery have made alm&st revolutionary pro gress. Is the trouble due to our modern, going sort of life that is Inclined to belittle all danger, and disregard all restraints upon con duct and living? I do not pretend to know what the real cause lo. But certainly it ought to be one of our major concerns to find out what all .of this means, and what ought to be done 'to correct the mlsciiief.

Ernest C. Carpenter

Tlic current strike situation—one of the hottest ptoblems in'recent ieklslatlve history—has produced a growing demand among the law-passers here that union labor must wake up to Its responsibilities in the current defense pogram. The .Public clamor that .strikes lii vital defense Industries must not be per­mitted to cripple production—that labor'? agitation, for a universal closed, .shop must ceaso—Is appar­ently bringing results. . - Observers here point out that unions, have been so ir^uch. hi the news recently that rnany people are beginning to think that they repre­sent almost all the employees In America. Actually, they represent loss than 20 jier cent of them. And with the C, I, O, — A. P, L. spill, there Is no.union, .spokesman who

for as American

labor

.in the past, liowevcr, that 10 per cent has done quite a lot of speak­ing In Its effort to force all em­ployees in the country into unions before they are permitted to work. Talk ot the tail wagging the dog, and you get a pretty accurate Im­pression of the union pictures in this respect.' , Indications are that a growing number of Congressmen are getting set to change that picture. At long last people are beginning to fine! it a little difficult to understand why a man should .join a union If he doesn't want to—why lie should pay dues if he Wants to use the money for something else. Labor unions have been using national defense as a smoke screen to hide their effort to create an industry-wide and, if possible, a nation—wide) labor monopoly. The wave of preventable strikes In defense industries seems to have roused thepublic to a realization of what's going on and It begines to seem as though reson-able steps may be taken to stop the trend.

"For .love is natlent kind; love knows not,hatred or envy.

It is never a braggart in mien swells with self-adulation;

It never offends good feeling, or insists on ail It has claim to;

It ...never blazes with rage, It stores up no resentment." (That hits .me. How about you?),

"It delights not over tho wrong that men do,

But responds witl\ delight to true dealing. Unfailingly tolerant, unfUlngly trustful.

Unfailingly hopeful, unfailingly strong.

The time will never come for love to die.

There will be a time when our prophesyings will be useless;

There will bo a time when these tongues will cease;

There will be a time when our knowledge will be useless.-

For our knowledge is but of tr,<>g-ments.

And our prophesyings but frag­ments.

But when absolute completeness shall hove come.

Then.that which is of fragments will have no use.

So then faith, Hope, and love last on—just these three: but the chiefest and bc^t Is love."

Seven Tif3sF8r Safe Driving

With the weather man prodlctr lug frcer.ing teinporalures, and with snow having already fallen In some stales north of us. It bo-hooves Connecticut drivers to pre­pare themselves and tlielr cars tor winter driving, Commissioner John T. McCarthy said today in n Motor Vehicles Department bulletin.

The bulletin set forth "seven tips for safe winter driving" based on tests made by thb National safety Council on frozen Lake Cadillac, Mich.

r. Exercise more caution gener­ally. The necessity for sudden stops sliould be avoided on snow or ice. It takes throe to clcyen tlnies the distance to stop on snow or ico.

2. Check brakes for simullaucous gripping. Uncquall'/;ed brakes start skids. When snow or Ice condl lions prevail, leave car in garage If not prepared to lake, practical pre­cautions.

3. Qood the treads are safe on wot pavement, but on ice or snow tire chains (which bite In (should be put on when nopdod. Make It a practice to sturt earlier.

4. Make surfe windshield wipers and defrosters are working, and that lighting equipment • is ade­quate for longer hours of darkness, snow, fog, and sleot.

.•i. Reduce speed on snow or Ice— don't throw i\way llie safely mar­gin provided-by lire chains. Watch out for children on sleds.

0. Leave more room between you and the car abend and don't try,to pass on hills or curves. Approach ley curves slowly. It not protected by lire chains — "crawl."

7..Slow down in gear, and "punip" brakes when stopping. Keep w'hccls from locking com­pletely. Troctlon afforded by chains does not duplicate dry pavement stopping capacity, but oil snow or Ice .they do cut slop-plpB distances -io to 50 per cent, ac|d appreciably to control of car, und avoid traftlo tie-ups.

"Resoaich conducted by the Na­tional Safety Council's Cominittco on Winter Driving Hazards," Coni-lul.ssloncr McCarthy said, "reveal skidding and Inadequate traction ns tho principal cause of winter ac cldcnls. Tho other most serious liazard is rcc|uccd visibility result­ing Iijoni snow and sleol storms, tog, and longer hours ot darkness,

"The death rate froni motor ve­hicle, accidents Increases during the winter months 40 per cent In northern statos, and from three lo 20 per cent In southern slates, ac­cording to location and severity of

weather."' , - . An Important conclusion of • tlio '

Safely Council's committee was; Tho practice of letting ttlr out of tiros for slippery pavements is a fallacy since the help for stopping Is slight, less than 10 per cent, and there Is' an Increased danger of side skids resulting..from, reduced pressure, and consequent instabili­ty. Also, tiros with good treads, highly desirable and helpful on wet pavements give no bolter porform-anco on packed snow or Ice than smooth tires.

Where lhoro'.$ a will . . .Ihoro's always ti group of poor relatives,

Qod will put up with many things In tho human heart, but there is one Ihiiig Ho will not tolerate . . a second place. He.who oftors Ood a second place, olTora Him iio place.

In many respects, winter is the best time for studying some of the birds'which come to us, as summer finds some ot tliem gone to more nortliern regions.

windows, from- . which - -they; can, easily be observed. 'X'ou may also study them at close range in your own slirubbery and thickets and watch them' busily picking seeds from the ground. For' a winter food supply In your garden, such vines . as bitter-sweet and such shrubs as Indian currant, which retain -their berries, should be planted plentifully. Birds also like the t;urquolse-berrled vine, the cal-licarpa japonica . In planting your grounds or gardens, the larger va­riety of berried shrubs and vines ,one plants, the more birds will re­spond to Us hospitality. Clumps of evergreen trees or .shrubs furnish

I the protection and privacy that birds demand. They like to .scratch among the fallen leaves, where the overhanging branches p r o t e c t them from the cold winds — and these same thickets shelter them from winter snows and hall and sleet. Prom these natural shelters, the birds go forth to gather the weed seed also. It has been esti­mated by Prof; F. E. Beal ot the University of Illinois, that a tree sparrow feeds almost entirely upon weed seed and that the amount of weed seed consumed In one day, by one tree sparrow alone, Is one-fourth o( a pound.

When we add to the tree spar­rows, j uncos and other seed eaters, we are able to comprehend the amount of weed seed gathered by the birds.

It is not difficult to provide feeding places for our winter birds. Just a simple shelf with a rim around the edge, to prevent the seeds from tailing to the' ground, placed outside a convenient win­dow, and a wire holder or rack to hold suet placed on a- tree or pole a short distance from your home and a supply of fre.sh water, Is all that is needed to bring our birds to our gardens. There are numerous bird feeding stations and suet holders for sale on the market, but I have found that the simpler ones attract the birds Just as read­ily. Cracked , corn, scratch feed, sunflower seed, and leftover bread or other crumbs furnish the varl oty for the feeding shelf. Tree sparrows will eat the seeds which drop to the ground but will rarely eat from the siielf—all other seed eating birds will alight and eat there. ', .

A list of shrubs and vine,?, to­gether with the birds which they attract, has been'compiled by Alice Earle Hyde of Waterbury, Connec­ticut. She i-s State Conservation chairman ot the New England

doir" wdxwlngp rpBlii and' bliiobii^d, .The poke-berry will grow any­

where, and brings the birds early in tho fall. All fall and winter birds like the poke-berry. The rose-haws bring the downy wood­ed woodpecker, the evening gros-pecker, the .starling and tho dif­ferent species of sparrows. To the mountain asli come the red-liead-beak, the pine grosbeak, the cedar waxwlng and the Bohemian wax-wing. The hawthorn attracts the purple fincli and the grosbeaks, the sumac brings to Its fruits the bob-white, the downy woodpecker, the flicker, the chickadee and the towhoe, together with tho robin and tho bluebird. The fruits of the wood-bine or Virginia creeper feed the woodpeckers, the sajisuck-ers, the Ki-osbeaks and the purple finches. The fruit of the dogwood trees attract the rulted grouse, the downy woodpecker, tho pine and evening grosbeaks, the v/hllc throated sparrow, and the cedar waxwlng.

To our snow-berry bushes come all the winter birds. The honey­suckle tangle harbors the v/hile-throated sparrow, the pine gros­beak, the purple finch, and the ce­dar waxwlng. The calliearpa Ja­ponica (turquolse-berrled shrub) and the barberries bring all the fall and winter birds. If your gar­den is , not loo tidy, and a few clumps of phlox, cone flower, sun­flower arid other seed-forming plants are left standing through­out the winter, you will be glad­dened by seeing the birds feeding from their seeds, daintily balanced on their slender perches.

Since we garden lovers like beauty let us entice the birds to our winter gardens — "thoge bal­lad-singers and the troubadours

The street musicians of the heavenly city ,

The birds who make sweet music for us all ,

In our dark hours, as David did for Saul."

They win help us protect our gar­dens from Insect pests and our lawns from moth-eaten places and again we, quote:

"They are the winged wardens of your farms—

Who from the corn-flelds drive the

Insidious foe and from your har­vests Keep a hundred, harms —even .the crow—

The blackest of them all Renders good service as your

man-at-arms, Crushing the beetle In Oils coat

Just install an automatic electric water hooter, and let tho hot water situation take care oi itseU, The boater Is completely automatic.

Scoring Aces Of Last Season—East Havenite On Varsity Squad.

Fall sports take to the sldo-llncs this week a t the University of Connecticut. The successful cross country squad, coached by Ivan Fuqua, finished the tall competi­tion by competing In the N.C.A.A. championships a t East Lanshig, Mich., and came in third, finishing behind Rhode Islond and Penn State. Wjth a record of three vic­tories and two defeats in dual meets, a perfect score of victory In the Connecticut valley meet and a second to Rhode Island S ta t e In the New England meet, t he squad was given the opportunity of t r av ­elling to Michigan to represent the East along with Rhode Island,

Copt. Charles Robblns of Man­chester was the- surprise of the Connecticut team, finishing in third place, four men ahead of Bob Nichols of Rhode Is land-State Col-legp.who had beaten him previous­ly In dual competition and in the New England's. Connecticut in scoring 114 polnt.i for third place hod Bill Tribou finishing. ' 13th, Wlnchoeter Hubbard 10th, Bob Bowon 43d and BIU Herold 48th.

Coach Ivan Fuqua's success with his cross country team was sweet­er bocau.so of the tact t ha t Purdue, Big Ten champion, finished be­hind Connecticut and Indiana Uni­versity' finished ninth . Fuqua is a graduate of Indiana University and the.Big Ton.

Football and Soccer The varsity football a n d soccer

squads l inlshed their season on November 15 with losses to R u t -govs a t New Brunswick a n d Tufts a t Medford. The football squad. In Its e ighth season under Coach J. b Christ ian, finished with a record of two wins and six losses. Con-nectluut was successful In defeat Ing Springfield, 25 to 8, and Mld-dlebury, 7 to 0, while losing to Coast Guard, Moas, State, Wesley-an, Maine, and Rhode Is land in close games and to Rutgoys in the finale, 32 to 7. Some consolation can bo received froin what should be considered a "building season." Co-caplalns "Pot" Mohr, Al At-wood and "Moe" Paine a n d five other seniors finished thei r 'careers but no les t h a n eight of the s ta r t ­ing l ineup 'agains t Rutgers should bo available for next year 's team along with 23 men who comprised the rest of the squad. In spite of the fact t ha t this year's f reshman squad cannot be considered a real­ly great t eam with two victories out of three , Coach Christian, bar­ring ineligibility and other reasons for withdrawals from college, will

find a likely group of candidates bidding for the team when spring practice rolls around.

Coach John Squire's fifth Uni­versity of Connecticut soccer team was probably the most successful In recent years with a record of six victories and three ' defeats. In achieving this record, they scored 20 points while holding their op­ponents to 10 and produced two of New England high scorers in Paul Roberg and Capt. Myron Baldwin. Freshman and Varsity Basketball

Coach Don White issued a call for freshman basketball Tuesday night and had a fine turnout for the team. Tho varsity basketball team has been working out ofU-clally slnoo Nov. 10 and is slowly rounding Into shape for a vigorous basketball season which opens up with three hard opponents before the Christmas holidays. Brown University Is to bo mot by both the freshmen and varsity on Doc. 13, with the opening home game of the schedule on the following Mon­day when Spi'lngfleld comes to Storrs. St. Lawrence University will be played a t Storrs on tho 18th before classes are,dismissed for tho holidays.

Coach White Is faced with the necessity of developing a team from tho remainder of ftio squad which last year won 14 games and lost bu t two, t o Rhode Island and Vlllanova. Gone from t h a t team are Co-captalhs John Yuslevlca and Bob Donnelly along with James Veronls who helped a great deal to provide Connecticut \vith Its fine season. 'The rdmdihdoro t 'the squad, Sam Jaskllka, Nick Vevblllo, J i m Cuddy, Fedele Mugavero, J im Connors, Wlllurd Fish and Capt. "Wink" Winzler a re all Intaot and are aided greatly by sophomores Milt Dropo, Ellis Beck, "Vinci! CastoUon, Ben Mlskavech and Bob Moss,

At this stage it is difficult to pick the s tar t ing five because tho competition for every position is keen.

Although the husky backeourt m a n garnered but eight points, he and Mink Swlrsky continually passed the ball into the hands of 'Vic Lukawsky and Stan Petela for easy baskets. Both of the lat ter scored 12 points apiece. Also a s tandout in the contest was Pop Duell, speed merchant , who more t h a n matched the supposedly speedier Branford opponents In tlielr racehorse game.

Lou Desl, ace center of the locals was a bit off form but made up for his shooting deflelency by a superb floor game. Billy Proto played his usual good game. The same goes for Billy PanaronI who was a con­s t an t thorn In the side of the St. Mike's.

Sport Prattle Freddie Kimball was given quite

a parly by his fellow workers and Branford friends last Saturday n ight a t Hyland's Rcs iauran t on State Street, New Haven. The oc caslon was a bachelor par ty honor ing him on the eve of his marriage to Miss Barbara MacLean of Pine Orchard. Tho wedding will take place on this coming Saturday af­ternoon."

Freddie was one of the town's least publicized athletes but per­formed magnlflcontly m a n y times for Branford High, Collegiate Prep and the old Branford Alumni team. His basketball feats a t Col-leglato Prep are still talked' about, Especially the daj- when ho held down Branford's ace performer on the Y.M.C.A. court.

Two of the tlnost 'speeches a t his bachelor dinner, so they say, were the masterly discourses presented by J . Burdetto Har t and Michael George Dykun.

I t Is my own regret t h a t I was unable to a t t end the affair bu t It Is my heartfel t wish t h a t the two onjoy to the fullest all t ha t their life In the future may have In store for them.

There , was a story hereabouts which might have been used early in the season save for the fact t h a t this section knew t h a t the Bran­ford man concerned vvas going to refuse. For t h a t reason and be^ cause we did not want to appear as It we were blowing' a publicity t rumpet too loudly we did not tell of tho Branford grid s t a r who was given a chance to play with the New York Yankees. The money concerned v/as adequate but with the money ottered elsewhere plus the opportunity of keeping his present employment, t he Branford boy w e n t to ahqthor t eam, iI t a p ­pears to be a lucky choice. The Yankees split wide asunder and their financial backer is still desir­ous of retaining his league fran. chlse.' Therefore on next Sunday afternoon on the New York Polo Grounds, Fritz Petela and the Hartford Blues, or snou'd we now say tho New York 'Yankees, will play a team of colored all s tars .

Evidently th'6 ' l o n g e s t way around Is the shortest way home. At any rate , if Is with t h a t fickle girl called "Dame For tune."

The first game of the Branford East Haven basketball series will be played a t the East Haven High Gymnasium on Janua ry 23 and the second game in Branford early in February. They do say t h a t Bran­ford is again undecided as to Just where they will play their games.

Manager Eddie Mart in of the Branford Sportsmen h a s ordered the new uniforms, whlcli we under s t and will be blue and white. His ar ray opened tlie season with a win over the St. Mike's five of New Ha­ven. I t was a for tunate win for It required an overtime contest.

Great news Is filtering out of Camp Edwards where the Co. H basketball team has arranged an at t ract ive schedule of. court con­tests. Already they have gained two decisions in two s ta r t s and are scheduled for some real battles af­ter their Journey to the Southlands which commences this week.

Likewise they have a bowling team which is leading their league with 14 wins and only one defeat. Steve Hylinskl is the top individual scorer averaging about 115,

It Is entirely possible t h a t the Battery team will piay a series or games about these par ts when they come home on their Chris tmas fur­lough'.-

Torelli Scores Lone Ram Tally Over Milford

The Branford Rams used the Mil-ford Wheel Club t i tular aspiration as a ceremonial turkey last Thurs­day afternoon when they carved themselves o u t ' a 6 to 0 win m tho final quarter of their contest. The game was a rcgulaily scheduled game of the Southern Connecticut Semi-Pro League. The win loft Branford the undisputed owner of second place.

The two clubs batt led on oven terms for the first three quarters but Branford heaped on the gravy when Torelli hurdled tho center of the line tor tlio lone touchdown of the game,.

Tho outstanding performance of the day was by Pesca, Branford crack back, who repeatedly 'carved av7ay for several outs tanding gains. Other s ta r performers were Nick Dykun, batt le-scarred veteran of the past, and Lenny Haas, able Branford center.

The Milford at tack was led by Perry, their ace triple th rea t , whose kicking led MHford out of several dangerous positions.

Giants, Paced By Murphy, Seek Upset Win Sunday

Weted Reports Eleven In First Class Condition—Lauds Clean Play Of Opponents — Murphy Considered League's Best Performer.

Back In first class shape the Branford Rams are set to give the Cheshire Giants the battle of their lives a t Cheshire this coming Sab-beth when they r ing down the cur­tain on tile Southern Connecticut Football League. Tho Giants have the reputat ion of being the clean­est team which tlio locals have faced all season and in Murphy, a te rmer Cheshire Academy back, they have one of the s tandout back field performers to show their wares in tho league this season.

But rar ing to go are the Rams. With all hands set for the opening whistle, tho Wetedmon arc set to make tho last circuit clash their best one. Although it is their last loop affair the Rams are still a c ­tively scheduling the best of tlio s ta te ' s semlpro organizations for extra - games.

Branford developed a t a slow pace this season duo in a large sense to the lack of time for practice. Be­cause the players for the most par t are engaged in defense work and are working all sorts of hours,

and cross-countr j flying. No flying experience Is necessary

to join the clirb, Government l i­censed Instructors are a t the air­port to teach tlie new members a t a low fee. The club plan brings the cost of flying down to a minimum, which enables a member to accum­ulate his flying hours in a much shor ter period t h a n ho ordinarily could if flying as an individual. , Any person interested, please call

George F. Bassett, New Haven 0-5166, Prod S. Dixon, New Haven 5-9943, or white Connecticut Fly­ers, Inc., Bethany Airport, Beth­any, Conn.

Coach Weted has had to make the best of a motley collection of ball­players. But as the season wore on ,tho local s trengtl i came to the tore. With the addition, first of Harry Williams, dusky backfleld star, and later Walter Parcinski, the Hams began to click. Then ci'.me a galaxy of ballplayers. Fore­most was Pesca, a. transfer from the Walliiigford V/alcos. With these new men backed by tho reliable early season players, the Rams clicked and have turned In several noteworthy performances since.

Tlie latest and by no means the Icosfc player to re tu rn to plug a lino gap was Nick Dykun who showed his wares in no uncer ta in te rms against t he Milford Wheel-clubbers on Turkey Day. Big F u r -tag and Rank and Pope have been a tower of s t rength both offensive­ly and detensiyely for the l o c a l s while Hass has played beautifully a t t h e center post. Billy Huzar and Paul Ward have played great ball a t t he wings.

The Rams were to have a great end and pass receiver in Eddie Ga-tavaskl but Stu Clancy grabbed tha t individual s t a r for his Walco eleven.

Still the locals countered w i th . Connie Matson a t crucial poUits in the season, and the geniai Matson stood out in tho line like the North s tar appears in the heaven's f i rm­amen t to a lost sailor. - All in all Branford has done well, remai'kably so, since the loss of a t least seven crack players, to the draft and various schools. Weted has done well with his mater ia l and a victory over the Gi,''.nts will go far in giving Branford the sep-ond 'p lace bertli in the league.

, Some people can read character by handwrit ing. Others offer to tell you all about yourself by the color ot your eyes or the shape ot your nose, the lines in your palms, the stai's ot your birthday. A fascina­ting business character reading, and almost every.bne h a s a favorllo method ot deciding, a t first ac­quaintance wha t another person is really hkc. I have often found the key to a woman's personality in the fragrance she chooses to wear, tor perfume is , as personal as • a love-letler, and Uistanlly "reveals a woman's temperament and way ot doing th ings . I could close my eyes in a roomful ot women, and ' my ] nose would toll mo t h e different' types of women who were porsent.

The ,fresh outdoor scent ot apple blossom, for instance, immediately identities fpr me, a woman who is completely feminine, a Utile On the helpless side-fond of decorating and ta,shlcns, gardening and hos­tessing. The exotic fragrance of orcliid perfume calls to my mind the picture of a ciiio, sophisticated woman who has travelled widely and whose conversation is well worth listening to.

Because perfume is sucli an im­portant personality accent, i t should be selected with the utmost care. Age is a formost consideration is selecting perfume. A young girl should never use scents, nor should the average woman over 50. There are, ot course, , occasional excep lions. Sarah B e r n h a r d t ' loved exotic perfumes and used them to the day of her death, when she was past 70. Her personality was so ex­tremely vital and . youthful t h a t anything else v/ould have been out ot harmony. Imagine the immortal Bernhardt using' lavender!

Hair coloring should be left out entirely, in selecting perfumes, otherwise all blonde.'j would confine themselves to rose and violet.'scents and all brunet tes would wear heavy Oriental fragrances. Tlieso are many blondes who are just a s vigorous in temporment and color­ing as brunet tes and many brunet-leswhose delicate beauty is far bet­ter to floral scents than to heavy musk odors. •

The best key to the right per­fume Is of /course, temperament and personality. Thus , if a woman is tall and slender, and ipves dark

colors and sUnky lines in fashions; it she plays golf well and loves t,o dance, then she should choose a sophisticated, gala perfume. If, on the other hand , she is the tailored, conservative who believes simplici­ty is the essence ot chic, .ind it slie shies away from modern a r t and furniture, then she should wear a well-bred, subtly ap'poallng town perfume. Or, if slie Is a natura l wholesome beauty who.Is happiest when she Is wearing tweeds or a ri.dlng-hoblt, then her perfume is a woodsy c6uritry t ragrance.

Two important rules to remem­ber In applying perfumes are : per­fume from the ' Ins lda out. Do not

Tons of zinc, load, nickol, aluminum, magnesium, and other raw materials aro required to expand a lelephono system. Today there is a shortage of these metals, for they ore needed to build planes, tanks, battleships, guns, and scores of other things for defense.

Limited quantities of those materials are being reclaimed from waste. For some, the Bell System has found substitutes. Put there is one metal which knows no substitute in tho telephone business Copper.

This year, to give life and voice to Connecticut's expanding telephone system, a billion feot of copper wire in cable Is required, while more Ions of copper are needed for switch­boards and other equipment to give wings to words.

But now the Bell System has been asked to reduce drasti-collyits use of copper.

With the uncertainty in the supplies of basic raw materials, it is becoming increasingly difficult to meet tho growing demands for additional telephone service — when and whore it is wanted.

There ore priorities on materials... but there is no priority on our efforts to give Connecticut the best telephone serv­ice possible. •

females preferably turf) to deposit first eggs. They will return to the surfoce to resume feeding and lat­er again enter tho ground to de­posit more eggs. This continues until each has lold from 40 to 00 eggs. The-eggs hatch In a week or more and the small grubs, which are about one-eighth of an inch In length, begin 'to feed at once. Growth is very rapid, and by late August or early September the majority are about one-holt an Inch or more in length. During Scpternber they feed vigorously upon theVoots of the turf and con­tinue growth until about one inch in length. Feeding continues until cold weather, when the grubs de­scend to a depth of about four to six Inches below the surface to hi­bernate. In the spring they return to the upper Inch of soil to resume feeding, which continues until late May or eorly June. They then en­ter into the non-fecdlng prcputal and pupal stages, emerging as adults In late June or July. Most of the turf damage becomes evi­dent in September, early October, or the following spring.

The grubs can be controlled by applying acid lead arsenate on the surface at the rate of 10 pounds to 1000 .square feet of turf area, using v/ater, dry sand, or friable soil as a carrier. The mixture should con­tain one pound of lead arsenate to about two gallons of water, or. If used dry, enough sand or friable soli to Increase the bulk some 25 tlmesf depending oo the distribut­ing apparatus employed.

For small lareas a watering can pr small fertilizer distributing ma­chine is practicable. For large areas a power sprayer or largo fer­tilizer distributor is necessai-y. Ap­ply the material uniformly and then lightly sprinkle the area at once with water to wash the ar­senate oft the grass and into, the ground. As acid lead arsenate Is Insoluble In water and does not penetrate immediately to t h e depths at which the grubs are feeding, some time elapses before results are obtained. However, tlie
