ft .iGt FoLtk (scioua SciiiCu" TTTE T7ATNESVILLE MOUNTAINS Thursday Afternoon. Decv at !; i Tasting Fish All Day Is Interesting (?) Position By JANE EADS ' (AP Newsfeatures) WASHINGTON Dr. Hugo Nil son never eats fish outside of busi ness hours, but he sometimes eats it five times a day vn the job. He's a V. S. Fish and Wildlife Service pharmacologist and a vol unteer member of a taste-testing panel at the service's technological laboratory at nearby University of Maryland. Scientists and about a half dozen home economists spend their days working out ways to dish up fish so that people will eat more of same. Fish and things like oysters, crabs and lobsters have been on the plentiful list for some time and America's 140,000 commercial fish ermen keep on hauling them in. The experts claim that a lot of people don't eat fish because they don't know how to cook it right. That's why they keep whipping up! new recipes and fish menus. Fish and Wildlife Service maintains test kitchens for this purpose at the University of Maryland and at Seat tle, Wash. First the girls cook up a recipe, it may be for home use in six por tions or for school luncheons or for use in industrial institutions in 50 or 100 portions. After it is cooked it is weighed and the size of the serving portions determined. "Then we hear a ship's bell ring ing outside the laboratory," Dr. Nilson told me. "The people who want to taste the fish then dash up to the lab. They sit down and taste each dish, scoring each bn its ap pearance, flavor and texture." "Members on the panel are all volunteers working in "the build ing," Dr. Nilson said. "Some who don't like fish at all never come. Some eager beavers attend all the taste-testings.

"I'm a bachelor, so it . doesn't matter how I eat," he told me, "but some men's wives who have plan ned a nice big dinner don't like the nibbling their husbands do," ' Dr. Nilson, who has been associ ated with the laboratory for 14 years, berfan with tasting salted fish. His particular job, however, is in nutrition and pharmacology. He tries to determine the food value of fish proteins. So far, he says, he's found all fish tested has the slme high quality of protein whether cooked, canned or frozen. Buenos Aires is the capital of Argentina. "House for Sale" There woul! be little to distinguish between a modern house-for-sale ad and that of a wealthy Boman'i house in about 30 A D. The latter .would read something like this: "Spacious 30-room stone house, hot air furnace, running water, kitchen with built-in oven, landscaped cen tral court with pool." The Roman probably would assume that you knew he had glass windowpanes and artificial lightinff-provtded by oil lamps. . , Natural ice is still "harvested" for private use in northern New Mexico each winter. This Year It's' A Musi! Do Your Shopping Early MllllillllMIIIIIMgr'lMLMMIMMIMMMMMMMI.IM 1111111 II 1111 Illl.Hlllllim By DOROTHY BOE AP Newsfeatures Writer This year you will do well to heed that well-worn phrase "Do your Christmas shopping early." Also you might as well be pre pared to spend more than you ex pect on that Christmas list. Shortages and higher prices are slated In many gift lines especial ly such things as metal toys, house hold appliances, and mechanical gadgets. Wide Selections Early birds, however, will find the gift selection dazzling and am ple. Late comers may have to take what they can get. In the field of toys, Santa's helpers-have outdone themselves this year in thinking up new devices to delight the small fry. Top favorites on the "want" list for both boys and girls is .cowboy equipment. The small cowboys in the ciuntry would make a formid able army if gathered in one camp. And the things they want include: cowboy hats, shirts, chaps, guns, lassos and boots. AH these are to be found on the front counter of every toy store or sporting goods house, usually priced within the average budget. An outgrowth of the cowboy craze is the ukelele fad. Plastic ukeleles, which come with books of instructions and cowboy songs, are likely to prove one of the most popular items In Santa's pack this year,- ...'.''. Wonder Dolls ' In the dc-Il category, defence has worked new wonders this year, so that Iho Christmas doll of 1950 COWPUNC1IING CHRISTMAS ... The Wild West as an inspira tion for gifts is more popular than ever with youngsters this year. walks, talks, cries, wets, drinks from a glass, blows bubbles, kicks its feet, changes expression and kisses back. Some have almost humaiij plastic skin,: others are equipped with voire and conversa tion. One doll has a blank face on which the small owner may draw any expression she fancies. A plastic electric organ is a new item in the gift pack plays just like a real one, costs enough to be a major present. The new toys are highly career conscious, also, The future archi tect may build model cities with new toys including modern urban plans; the homemaker can furnish her own house on a floor plan drawn to scale; junior engineers may practice with streamlined Diesel engines; future warriors may play with toy jet planes. The new est chemistry set includes a Geiger counter, and there's a banker's safe that works. In the adult gift categories, prices again will be higher than last year in almost all fields. If you're planning to, give Pop a new car for Christmas you'd better or der it now. The same is true of Mom's deep-freezer or vacuum cleaner. 1 Luxury gifts will be plnetiful but far from thrifty. Furs, jewelry and luggage can be had at a price. Sheer nylon lingerie, highly styled and frilly, probably will be the top item on Mom's hinting list again this year. Nylon stockings are always a safe bet. And cashmere sweaters for all the family are available in new colors and styles, priced about the same as last year, or in some cases a little less.

Woman Undercover Agent Tells How To Fight Reds AP Newsfeatures NEW YORK Angela Calomlris spent seven years as an FBI plant inside the Communist party but she doesn't have any fool-proof method of spotting a Red. "When something walks like a duck, quacks like a duck and looks like a duck," she said, "chances are it's a duck," she said. you've never seen a duck before, it's hard to identify the first one you do see." The tiny, dark-haired photog rapher was approached by Federal Bureau agents In 1942 and asked If she would be "converted'' to Communism, join the party, work hard in it and report its activ ities to the bureau. She accepted the assignment without pay and without protection. The seven years of gruelling, hectic and fre quently boring and unsatisfying work are recounted in her new book, "Red Masquerade". Angela made a good Communist rising from the lowest rank to financial secretary of an import ant Manhattan unit of the party completely unsuspected. In fact, she was held in high party esteem the very day when she appeared as a government witness in the New York trial of the Communist party's 11 top leaders and iden tified each man as having active ly taught and advocated overthrow of the government. Her appear ance and calm statement she had always been a government agent was a bombshell in the courtroom. "I think control of Communism Is the most important problem we face today," she said. "I think the answer to ferreting out Reds lies in legislation, but I don't think the new Communist Registraiton act is the complete answer. "There is one big advantage in f , if v ; i CmP"" I f IlilllM MIMMIII II III tMHBMIDBnHMlMiiiii Early Atlantic Crossing The first visit to England by a na tive American is believed to have occurred about 1583. At that time, Sir Richard Grenville, cousin of Sir Walter Raleigh, commanded a fleet that deposited the first, and tempo rary, Roanoke island colony off North Carolina. Sir Richard re turned to England with an Indian who was there baptized into the Christian faith as "Christian Raw ley." "Carpetbaggers" The 'carpetbag, used by William F, Harnden who originated the ex press business on March 4, 1839, came With the stage coaih days. Carpetbags lost their wide popu larity due t the odium connected With the 1 "carpetbaggers' of the pos cfvil war (outh. ANGELA CALOMIRIS . . . Fooled the Reds ... outlawing the party, however. It rneans that anyone willing to sup port Communism is violating the law and that will keep party membership from growing." The party, Miss Calomiris said, is prepared to disappear complete ly into the underground to func tion efficiently. "That means that the FBI will have to go underground with' it," she said. "There will have to be more government plants in the party and danger to them will in crease. Any plant's life is in dan ger." J : - Dramatic Stairway A distinctive modern stairwsy is painted in interesting tones of red an& gray. The stair treads are painted, alternately, in two different tones of red to increase the visibility of separate treads. The risers, start ing at the bottom with a deep tone of gray, are painted in progressive ly lighter shades as the stairs ascend. The effect Is both dramatic and beautiful. "Fuglo" Cent The words "Mind your business" appear on the first coin (the "Fu gio" cent) to be struck by authori ty of the United States, The com plete and literal translation of the inscribed phrase is: "I (time) fly. therefore mind your business." Benjamin Franklin . is believsd to have influenced the design of the coin, which bears the date 1787.
