TWOSOME
Torch (left) and Rosy Future (right) are two newcomers to the
roster of Zenith zinnia varieties. Torch has rich orange flowers;
Rosy Future's blooms are bright rose-pfak.
Two giant cactus flowered zinnias, Rosy Future and Torch are
bronze medal winners for 1969 in the All-America Selections
trials. Both are new members of that popular zinnia strain, Zenith.
You may have grown some of their relatives: Firecracker,
Princess, Bonanza or Yellow Zenith. If so, you know their
performance in your garden.
The same mildew resistance, hybrid vigor, bushy plants about
2 Vi feet high and profuse flowering over an exceptionally long
time may be expected of the two new medalists.
The difference, of course, is in their flower colors. Torch is
a rich orange, an improvement over Bonanza, which won a silver
medal from All-America Selections a few years ago. Rosy Future
has flowers of bright rose-pink. Both varieties have enormous
blooms, 5 to 6 inches in width, as do the other Zenith zinnias.
These plants make splashes of color in the garden and marvel
lous cut flowers for the house. They're easy for a beginning
gardener to grow and a joy to the experienced person who will
realize what an improvement the newcomers represent.
"Breakfast For Bobby?" .
Teachers, school nurses and nutritionists are alarmed that so
many children come to school every morning without break
fast. Their concern over listless learners in countless classrooms
has led them to check on pupils' eating habits, especially
breakfast.
Why do Bobby, Betty, John and Joan come to school
without eating the most important meal of the day? These
youngsters do not know that eating breakfast is important to
their health. They do know that their little stomachs are
empty and that it is a long, long time until lunch.
Any child old enough to come to school can fix his own
breakfast if he has to. So try to motivate every pupil at every
grade level to est breakfast. Ideally he should eat a serving of
fruit or fruit juice, a bowlful of ready-to-eat cereal such as
Com Flakes or Special K,® milk, bread and spread. But just a
bowlful of ready-to-eat cereal, whole grain, restored or forti
fied, with milk will give him a start on the nutrients he needs
each day.
Teach children the necessity of eating breakfast for good
health. Encourage them to be breakfast "do it yourselvers!"

Pascal, known for her own
attractive figure as well as for
her rare talent for sculpturing

molds her shape with a new
light-weight transportable ex

relax on Exer-Cor—for just six

clarify North Carolina's capital
punishment provisions.
The problem, he said, is tnat
the U. S. 4th Circuit Court of
Appeals ruled on North
Carolina's capital punishment
provisions in a non-capital
punishment case.
On Nov. 26, 1968, the Circuit
Court of Appeals ruled that
Henry Alford was coerced into
pleading guilty to second degree
murder, a charge which carries
a 30 year jail sentence. It does
not carry a death pena'iy. First
degree murder does in North
Carolina.
The circuit court based its
decision on a ruling of the U. S.
Supreme Court on the federal
kidnap law which allowed the
defendant to plead guilty to
avoid the death penalty.
The Supreme Court ruled
earlier last year that this pro
vision coerced ("chilled") a
person into pleading guilty to
avoid death. This is un
constitutional, the court said.
Ramsey introduced a bill to
take the "chill out of North
Carolina's capital punishmeDt
provisions. His first bill would
eliminate the mercy provisions
which were enacted in 1949 "so
our laws would conform with
federal ruling."
Second Bill
He has introduced a second
bill which would raise the
penalty for second degree
murder, rape, arson and
burglary from 30 yards to life
imprisonment.
SHRIMP TIP
Oh, yes, you can deep-fry
canned shrimp! And they're
great. Actually, fry-wise, they
perform extra well because
they are already cooked and
will not give off the fluid
which so often causes batter
and breading to separate from
raw foods in frying. And you
don't have to worry about
these fried shrimp being done
because the minute they are
brown and crisp, that's it. You
can fry them in just enough
hot fat to cover well and save
yourself the trouble of heating
great "deep" quantities.
Use an extra heavy batter, a
favorite mix or your own. A
fritter-type batter is excellent,
substituting lemon juice for the
usual sugar. It is a good idea to
have the shrimp thoroughly
chilled in the can before you
start. Pre-chilling Arms and
protects the texture and always
puts them in top shrimp shape
for serving hot or cold.
QUICK BREADED SHRIMP
2 cans (4% ounces each)
shrimp, chilled in the can
2 eggs
V 4 cup milk
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon melted butter
or margarine
1 cup sifted flour
■ Vi teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
Bread crumbs, plain or
seasoned
Rinse shrimp in cool water;
blot dry. Combine eggs, milk,
juice, and melted butter. Add
sifted dry ingredients and beat
into a smooth, thick batter.
Dip shrimp in batter; drain well
and dredge in crumbs. Drop
into hot fat (875 degrees) and
fry one minute or until crisp
and golden brown. Serve while
hot. Makes 5 servings.
Israeli Jets Hit
Near Arab Capital

Ray Ex
To Be Free
In 2 Ye
MEMPHIS, Tenn.
James Earl Ray admitted
assassinating Dr. Martin Luther
King Jr. and accepted a 99-year
prison term because he thinks
he will be out of prison in two
years, Shelby County District
Atty. Phil M. Canale said
Sunday.
Canale, appearing on a
televised news conference
(WHBQ's Press Conference),
spid Ray told his attorney,
Percy Foreman of Houston "he
would be free in two years."
Ray was a fugitive from the
Missouri State Prison when he
says he shot the Noble Peace
Prize-winning civil rights leader
April 4, 1968.
But Canale said Ray was not
specific with Foreman as to
whether he would attempt to
gain his freedom through the
courts or through a prison
break.
Ray was transferred to the
Tennessee State Prison last
Tuesday the day after he
appeared in court to admit the
slaying. He is presently housed
in the maximum security unit.
Canale pointed out that the 99-
year prison term Ray accepted
was the stiffest penalty possible
under Tennessee law, aside
from death in an electric chair
that has not been used since
1960.
The law provides that Ray
must serve at least 30 years
before he would be eligible for
parole. If he had gone to trial
and been sentenced to life he
would have been eligible for
parole in 15 years, 7 months.
Already there have been
reports that Ray is having
second thoughts about his deal
and may try to have the
sentence overturned.
Canale said the only legal
avenue open to Ray would be
writ of habeas corpus which
would have to successfully
challenge some phase of his
arrest and interrogation before
he was sentenced.

bombs and antiaircraft fire
were heard from Us outskirts. ,
King Hussein flew to Cairo for
talks with Egyptian President
Qamal Abdel Nasser, his depar
ture delayed 4S minutes because
of the raids.
An Appeal
Jordan drafted an appeal to
U.N. Secretary General U Thant
protesting the raids and calling
for urgent action against what it
called Israeli aggression.
An Israeli army spokesman
said the strikes lasted hours
on three targets in north, cen
tral and southern Jordan—El-
Yaduda, six miles sooth of Am
man; Dibin, southwest of Jar
ash in the north, and Dabrat in
the south.
The army said all Israeli
planes returned safely. It said
Dibin and El-Yaduda belonged
to A 1 Fatah, the largest of the
Arab commando organizations,
and Dabrat was a base of both
the Fatah and the Popular
Front for the Liberation of
Palestine (PFLP).
A Jordanian military commu
nique said one civilian was
killed and three wounded in the
three attacks.
It did not mention whether
Jordanian air force planes were
sent aloft to intercept the Israe
lis.
The Palestine Liberation Or
ganization, which speaks for
most of the guerrilla groups, is
sued a communique in Amman
saying three guerrillas were
killed and four wounded in the
attack on Dibin.
The commando organization
said the dead included Maj.
Fayez Jarad, 30, "one of the
chief guerrilla commanders."
The communique said: "Ene
my aircraft raided the Jarasli
area with rockets, napalm and
machine guns. They came in
three waves in which 18 planes
took part. Our losses were three
killed and four wounded."

Monk Says
U. S. Aids
Oppression
SAIGON - Thich Tri
Quang, once tfae moat powerful
Buddhist leader in South Viet
nam, accused the United States
Sunday of helping President
Nguyen Van TTiieu repress Bud
dhists.
The U.S. Mission had no com
ment concerning the militant
monk, whose political influence
has declined since he was in
volved in the overthrow of Pres
ident Ngo Dinh Diem's regime
in 1963 and a half-dozen later
governments.
Quang Showed up at a news
conference called at the An
Quang Pagoda to protest a 10-
year prison sentence imposed
by a five-man Saigon military
court Saturday on a monk,
"finch Thien Minh, for pro-Com
munist activities.
The verdict was called "un
just and inhuman."
Quang and other factional
leaders published a resolution
saying the government of Thieu,
a Roman Catholic, is "using the
support of foreigners to continue
the program of Mr. Diem to de
stroy Buddhism* with different
and barbarous forms."
Asked what foreigners were
meant, Quang said: "Ameri
cans are responsible for every
thing that happens here."
The monk said no violence
was planned to protest Minh's
imprisonment but "we have oth
er forms of protest." He did not
elaborate, but Buddhist demon
strations under the Diem re
gime included fire suicides.
No Diversion
There is no acreage
diversion program for cotton

Deed or Mis-deed?
U
The purchase of a home
probably represents the largest
single financial investment you
will ever make. Yet your mort
gage money and hard-earned
down payment do not transfer
the title from the owner to
you. It takes a well prepared,
properly executed and deliv
ered deed to establish your
ownership.
Whether or not you receive
title to the property when your
money is paid can be influ
enced by the way a deed is
drafted and the information it
contains.
Drafting deeds is a job for
experts, according to the
American Land Title Associa
tion. A deed must be carefully
prepared in all its details and
must be in proper form. It
must be signed, acknowledged,
and delivered. Contents must
be accurate and complete.
The price or consideration
paid in the transaction—or the
fact that the deed is conveyed
as a gift based on love and
affection—normally is stated in
the deed. Words generally are
included to demonstrate the
owner's present intent to con
vey the property—and to de
scribe the real estate con
cerned.
Recording the deed in the
office of the local recorder (or
register) of deeds immediately

after closing a transaction is
done to establish title of record
and to guard against the deed
being lost or destroyed; to pro
tect against the former owner
selling the property a' second
time and the subsequent buyer
recording the deed before you
do—to take record title; and
for assurance that judgments
against the former owner will
not become liens on the prop
erty.
Examples of defective con
veyances include deeds deliv
ered after the grantor's death,
deeds not properly acknowl
edged, deeds with misspelled
names or erroneous descrip
tions, deeds executed by cor
porations lacking corporate
power to act in that capacity.
A great many other imperfec
tions can render a deed invalid.
But even a properly drafted
deed cannot protect the home
buyer from hidden hazards
such as forgery, conveyance by
a minor or mental incompe
tent, improperly stated marital
status, and missing heirs. A low
cost owner's title insurance
policy will protect against this
kind of hidden real estate
pitfall.
