tagfe which was being rented to
their family and told Mrs. Roscoe
Gaskins. She went and (ot the
child, carried her to the cottage,
washed and fed her.
One of the men at the cottage
drove t? Atlantic Beach and noti
fied the beach police that the child
had been found, and the sheriff
was called.
Hie first officers on the scene
Wert constable Gedrge Smith,
Morehead township; deputy sheriff
liruce Edwards, and two Atlantic
Beach officers, Murphy Jenkins
and W. G. Mitchell.
They found the car with a hose
from the right exhaust going in
the back window on the right side.
The hose from the left exhaust
either had come out or had been
pulled out of the rear window on
the left.
Planning Indicated
Officers were amazed at the ma
terials used and the expert way
in which the intended "death car"
was rigged. It indicated that
Lewis, an employee at Machine
and Supply Co., Beaufort, had not
decided on the spur of the moment
to commit suicide or attempt to
take the life of his daughter. Hoses
were the proper length, the proper
clamps had been used to attach
them to the exhausts, and the en
tire set-up indicated that extensive
thought had been given to the pro
ject.
In the car were an empty aspirin
bo*, an empty "Sominex" bottle,
a new shiall baby doll still in the
box. a pair of men's bedroom slip
pers, a half carton of cigarettes,
an empty Pepsi Cola bottle and a
check book with a small balance
showing.
Sharon's grandfather, Mr. Gil
likin, was called and he arrived
at the Gaskins cottage about 9.30.
He took Sharon, showing no ill
effects from her close brush with
death, home.
Officer Gets Lead
Meanwhile, Deputy Edwards was
checking nearby cottages. At one
of them, Mr. and Mrs. Herman
Grantham, who live some dis
tance west of the place where the
car was parked, said that about
4 a m Tuesday a man answering
Lewis's description woke them
and asked for water.
They said he was in a dazed con
dition. He told them that some
men had held him up with a pellet
gun and thrown him out of his
car.
The sheriff concluded that Lewis
had headed west through the dunes
toward Bogue Inlet. At 11:40 a.m.
the sheriff called New Bern prison
for bloodhounds, but before tht
bloodhounds got here, Lewis was
llf!
found by the COM! tiuarasmen
who had been requested to Join
the Kirch. ,
In i Fort Micon Coast Guard
jeep the sheriff rode toward Bogue
Inlet and met the Ctut Guards
men who had Lewis. Lfcwis was
taken to Jfcil in Beaufort where
bis car is also being held.

When he left again, with Reece,
he backed around into the road
at the west side of the restaurant.
He said he thought be backed into
a bike. When he went forward
again, Reece looked hack, accord
ing to the patrolman, and said to
Chapman, "I thtnk we struck ?
child," but Chapman continued go
ing to Morehead City.
After learning a description of
the car, officers roumfed up sus
pects, among them Chapman and
Reece.
Mrs. Davies said that the first
time the car crraed Chris, the
wheels went over his pelvis The
second time it crossed his ankles
and legs. An underpart of the car
hit him on the head Stevie Wag

cm ?lso be frozen, as can tomato
sauce. Approximate yield of can
ned tomatoes from fresh tomatoes:
1 bushel (S3 lb.) yields IS quarts;
1 lug box (32 lb.) yields 11 quarts;
to 3V4 lb. yields one quart.
What do you know about these
tomatoes? Did you know that
about 100 years ago, the tomato
was but * garden curiosity and
considered poisonous? Today, over
threo-quarter million acres of to
matoes are grown in the United
States. Besides this tremendous
acreage, a large quantity is im
ported from other countries.
Altliwgh native to the Americas,
tomatoes were first accepted as
food In European countries. This
was the beginning of one of our
most popular present clay vege
tables. More acres of tomatoes are
grown yearly In the United States
Mian anjr other vegetable except
white potatoes and sweet corn.
Ripen In Dry Place
For best flavor and color in to
matoes: ripen in a dry place. Ri
pen at temperatures between 55 and
70 degrees F. Ripen in light or
dark, but never place on a win
dow sill. Bright sunlight will cause
abnormal, uneven coloring.
Green tomatoes should never be
refrigerated, for if they are placed
in the refrigerator, ripening stops
and they become watery. Keep
ripe tomatoes in the refrigerator
until ready to use. Green ones will
ripen at room temperature.
Chose tomatoes carefaHy. When
you shop for tomatoes, look for
those that are firm, but Well rip
ened and plump. They should be
of food color? red or yellow de
pending on the variety. If free
from blemishes and well-shaped,
there's less waste.
Tomatoes of irregular shape are
satisfactory when cut Into wedges
or used for pulp or Juice. They
should feel heavy for their size.
If they are not to be used imme
diately, they should be a little un
derripe.
Vine-ripened tomatoes are more
juicy and of finer flavor than those
which are picked green and artifi
cially ripened, but the season for
vine-ripened tomatoes is a rela
tively short one.
Rich In Vitamta C
Besides being luscious to eat,
red ripe tomatoes are well worth
eating, nutritionally speaking. To
matoes are low in calories, rich in
Vitamin C and a good source of
Vitamin A. One medium-sized to
mato raw, provides almost half
of the Vitamin C for the day plus
about one-third of the Vitamin A.
Field-ripened tomatoes are high
er in Vitamin C than fall and win
ter greenhouse tomatoes. Toma
toes retain a good share of their
vitamins when canned or cooked,
though fresh tomatoes are highest
in nutritive value.
Canning tomatoes is not a diffi
cult task. Neither does it take as
long as some other canning jobs.
Use only perfect, ripe tomatoes
for canning. To loosen skins, dip
into boiling water about one-half
minute; then quickly into cold wa
ter. Cut out stem end and peel
tomatoes. You may use either the
Raw-pack or Hot-Pack Method for
canning tomatoes. Either is quite
satisfactory.
How to Do It
For Raw-Pack? leave prepared
tomatoes whole or cut in halves
or quarters. Pack to Vi inch of top.
pressing gently to till spaces. Add
tomato juice if liquid is needed.
Add V4 teaspoon salt to pints; one
teaspoon to quarts. Process in boil
ing water bath canner (not pres
sure canner)? pin.ts, 35 minutes;
quarts, 45 minutes.
Hot-Pack? Quarter peeled toma
toes. Bring to a boil, stirring to
prevent sticking. Pack boiling hot
tomatoes in jars to V4 inch of top.
Add Vfc teaspoon salt to pints,; one
teaspoon to quarts. Process in
boiling water bath canner: Pints,
10 minutes; quarts, 10 minutes.
For tomato juice, use ripe juicy
tomatoes. Wash, remove stem
ends, cut in pieces. Simmer until
softened, stirring often. Strain.
Add 1 teaspoon salt to each quart
of juice. Reheat just to boiling.
FBI jars with boil like hot Juice to
H Inch of top. Process in boiling
water bath? pints, 10 minutes and
quart*, 10 minutes.
Fried Tomatoes
We are all familiar with the use
of tomatoes in raw kalads. Many
of us use them stewed or scal
loped, and in soups and sauces.
Have you ever tried fried toma
toes? They are good and here is
the recipe.
Slice 6 tomatoes (medium-sized
ripe or green) about V4 inch thick.
Dip in mixture of Vi cup fine, dry
bread crumbs or flour, Vi teaspoon
sah, and a little pepper. Cook in
a small amount of fat until brown
on both sides. If desired, dip to
matoes in beaten egg, then in flour
or bread crumbs before cooking.
Six servings.
Broiled Tomatoes
Broiled tomatoes are tasty, too!
Wash 6 medium-sized tomatoes,
ripe or green, and remove stem
ends. Cut tomatoes in two, and
place cut side up in shallow pan
or on broiling pan. Brush with
melted fat and sprinkle with salt
and pepper.
Place under direct heat with top
of tomatoes about 3 inches below
tip of flame or broiler unit. Broil
until tender? 10 to 15 minutes for
ripe tomatoes, IS to 25 for green.
If desired, sprinkle with fine bread
crumbs or grated cheese for the
last few minutes of broiling. Six
servings.
Remember, no matter how you
serve them, whether cooked or
raw, ripe or green, tomatoes are
good, and good for you! Take out
that "Vitamin C" insurance now,
won't you?
