Their labels remain legible, so that a glance tells you what the contents are. j This new freezer is the upright, bookshelf-type, which makes it easy to reach packages when you want them. Its entire capacity is 438 pounds, but the door alone will hold 82 pounds of foodstuffs. For large, bulky packages, there’s a special swing - out basket.

However, with the amaz ing success of The Kingston Trio’s "Tom Dooley,” and their LP Albums (Capitol), and the album, “Jimmy Driftwood Sings Newly Discovered Early Ameri can Folk Songs” (RCA), the charm of these songs has been re discovered by the general public.

Lovers of country music will enjoy “The Country’s Best,” a collection of 12 top hits by Capi tol’s leading country artists, and “This Is Tommy Collins,” in which Tommy sings 12 of his biggest numbers (both Capitol). In the pop field, the album, “Ai Jolson Overseas,” will bring you many pleasant memories.

Faron Young’s LP, “My Garden of Prayer,” is an inspiring collec tion of gospel songs, sung beau tifully and with a conviction that gives one a feeling of a visit to; the old country church (Capitol)., And Porter Wagoner’s “1 Thought of God" is another fine, inspira tional song release (RCA). FINE SINGLES are “I’ll Catch You When You Fall" (Charlie Walker, Columbia); “Don’t Bring Your Banjo Home” (Grandpa Jones, Decca); “Chasin’ a Rain bow” (Hank Snowr RCA); “Better Love Next Time” (Jean Shepard, Capitol); "Lost Love” (Jimmie Davis, Decca); “This Is It” (Paris Bros, Brunswick); “You’ll Never Be Mine Again” (Kitty Wells, Decca); “While You’re Cheating on Me" (Louvin Bros, Capitol); “I Guess I’ll Miss the Prom” (Bobby Helms, Dec ca);’"A Pair of Scissors” (Dean Reed*, Capitol) and “You’ve Got Everything” (Lance Roberts, Decca).
