OD REDAKCNiHO STOLKU CESKY DEN SE DOBilE VYDAEIL Prave skoneen9 Oesky den na statnj v9stave v Dallasu se nad oeekavan y ydaril. Dle meho odhadu sueastnilo se asi 2,500 osob tohoto dne. Z bah°, 0 neco min priglo do pavilionu. Musi se Z"e ce19 podnik a program se velice dobre yydaill a neastnici sklidili nadmirn9 nspech a potlesk divan. A v gechno bylo nasledkem spolupraci mnoho a mnoho lid!. Je to nesmirn9 a filasn9 nkol, musi se souraditi einnosti nekoli set osob a freastnikt, coZ neni tak jednoduche a snadne. Prace na tomto podniku zaeina asi v lateznu kaZeleho roku a pokraeuje rychl9m tempera a2 do dne, kdy se slavnost kona.

Bratr Halouzka, leto gni predseda deskeho dne, a jeho spolupracovnici si zaslouZi diky nas v gech za dobrou krajanskou praci dobre vykonanou. Mohou miti to fitechu a spokojenost, Ze jsme vgichni jim povdeeni za jejich nennavnou praci, a Ze se /lam v gem to velice libilo.

• Jako jeden, kter9 byl zapojen v -Mt() praci jen par let zpatky, velice mne dojalo to, Z"e pred jen Indio ran, konalo se nynel gi obrovske predstaveni ye Women's Building, kde bylo mista na nejvic 350 osob, kde bylo prenosne jevigte, provisorni opona, prenosne stony a fine docela ne gikovne zarizeni.

Dnes se kond tato slavnost v obrovske budove Coliseum ,kde jsou sedadla na nevim kolik tisic osob. teastnikil nyni b9va sto aZ d ye ste, orchestry, dechovni hudba, nespoeetne skupiny taneenikil, zpevakil a neseetne Sokolske skupiny (drive museli davat pozor aby nezavadili do stropu), a mnohe jine. Nyni muzou i neznami a lide jin9ch Vivocif]. pohlednout to my 6e§i Mame a jak to na ge vetev v Texasu pokraeuje.

• • Uoime se podle chyb, ktere jsme drive udelali a tak to ma b9t. Pozorovatel takoveho podniku musi doiit k tomu zaveru, Ze na ge krajanska einnost neumird, naopak, se stale aivuje, musime jj jen podporavat. 15-roveri nageho predstaveni se musi stale zv9 govat, aby si nas verejnost vaZila a, aby jsme si neug kodili, aby jsme si udrkli dobrou pov6st', kterou si ce19 6esk9 narod zasloUZI. Pri verejn9m v9stunu musime ukazat na ge neilep gi vlastnosti.

KdyZ bratr Bubak vyvolaval jmena

razn9ch most, bylo velice k pote geni videti tolika most zastoupen9ch z celeho Texasu. Zdalo se, Ze asi polovic divaka stain kdy vyvolal jmeno Ennis.

Bylo, ale hodne jin9ch most zastoupen9ch, mezi nimi Fort Worth, Kaufman, La Grange, Granger, West, Rowena, Houston, Corpus Christi. Prijela i cela skupina autobusem z z cesty do Hot Springs, Arkansas.

"OestnSrm kralem" byl dr. J. J. Shiller z Roweny, 88 let star, z okresu Runnels. Prozradil, Ze se chysta na loveni holubu v prigti sezone.

Jestli jste nemeli prilditost si jet letos do Dallasu na 6eskSi den hledte, aby se tak za rok stain. Jste zmegkali nejen hodne pekn9ch v9stupa ale snad dulelitej gi jste nepocitili prave eeske ovzdu gi a ten krajansk9 duch, kter9 byl tak viditelny v ten den v Dallasu.

Frankfurtske perky se skuteene hodi pro kaadou prilelitost a podle toho se upravuji, od pouheho ohtati az ke sloZitejSi pripave. Ale j. to ``pouhe" ohrati ma jednu duleaitou zasadu: parek se nesmi vatit. Nejlepe je nadobu s vodou, ktera se prave zaeala yarit, stahnout s kamen nebo vakiee, a parek vloZit do horke vody asi na 5 rniput, takZe se dobre ohreje a nepraskne. Kdo ma rad v park,u i chut' nalevu, neeha je v atevrene, konzerve, kterou vloZi do nadoby s horkou vodou a vati tak dlouho, aZ jsou parky dostateene horke. V prirode mflIete parky ohrat prime v konzerve. Teple parky chutnaji zejmena s horeici nebo strouhanYm krenem a chlebem nebo peeivem.

A kdybyste chteli prekva,pit hasty doma specialitou, priprayte jim zapekane frankfurtske perky v listkovem tate.

Pro mohamedanske labuaniky pripravuji v Kostelci perky ze sameho hoveziho masa; prozradim vam, ze jsou velmi dobre. V Kostelci vyrabeji take talianky — komupak by se nesbiraly sliny pki predstave eerstveho taliana a hrube sekaneho tuoneho veproveho a mladeho hoveziho masa?

romki Banska adadernia BANSKA STIAVNICA v slavnostnom rtitehu 200 roene jubileum Banskej akademie V roku 1763 vznikla v Banskej Stiavnici v najvaeSom vtedarlSom banskom centre celeho Rakuso-Uhorska "Vysoka kola banska.". Banska akademia po eas svojho 156-roeneho trvania prispela vo vel'kej miere k rozvoirt banskych vied a techniky. Vychovala vaek poiiet odbornikov, ktori shill odborne maniasti do celeho sveta. Koncom augusta tohto roku obliekla sa cela, Banska 'Stiavnica do slavnostneho rucha. Oslavila dastojne vel'ke dvestoroene jubileum.

Historia okolo zalozenia. UZ pied rokom 1763 mala Banska Stiavnica banske skoly. Profesorom na tejto Akole bol poprednY slovensky , inZinier Samuel Kakoviny. Tak v roku 1747 zaklaclaifi bansku gkola aj v Smolniku. Toto boll prve lastovieky. Zial', nesnlnili stopercentne evoje postanie,, pretole vY-Reba bola zverena odbornikom z vYroby. ktori nemali ani dostatok easu. ani pedagogickYch znalosti pre vYchovu banskYch kadrov.

7 At rok 1763 prinaSa zasedny obrat, V Banskej 8tiavniet, v naj yyspelejSom banickou meste v Europe zriad'uje sa "Vysoka banska Skola". Napjr y katedra pre chemiu a hutnictvo. PrvYm profesoaern sa stava MikulaS Jacquin, chemik, vynikajfici vedec svojej doby.

S vel'kou chut'ou sa pfista do prace.

Vybudoval jedno z najlepSich chennckYch laboratorii, v ktorom si Studenti overovali teoreticke vedomosti z mie a z hutnictva v praxi. Lskutoenovali aj vedecke pokusy, vYsledkami ktorYch sa dnes chvali chemia.

Rozkvet Skoly. SkutoenY rozkvet Vysokej Skoly zaeina rokom 1765. Zriad'uju druha katedru matematiky, machaniky a hydrauliky. A o pat' rokov neskorke treitiu katedru o banskYch ,dielach. 8ko1u vyhlasili za banskd akademiu. Dostava navy organizaeny statat a kudijny plan, ktory schvalila i panovnieka Maria Terezia. Studium na, 'Skole pred1Zujn na etyri roky. Profesorom matematiky sa stal MikulaS Poda a profesorom banskYch diel Krikof Traugott Delius, ktoreho o dva roky neskorAie vystriedal TadeaS' Peithner, ktory bol vynikatacim banskYin odbornikom a profesorom na, Karlovej universite v Prahe. Zameriaval sa na vYklad banskeho prava a narodohospodarskeho vYznarnu banictva. Po odchode Tadea ga Peithnera z pra2skej univerzity, tamojAinu katedru banskYch vied zruSili a quku banskeho odborueho dorastu sustredili do Banskej avnice.

Na banskoklavnickom vysokorn neStudovali len prislu gnici krajin bYvalej habsburske j monarchie, ale vyhl'adavali ji i prislukaici ostatnS7ch europskSrch gtatov. Banska skolia zalolena, vo Feibergu, o nieeo neskorke ako Banskej S • tiavnici, zostavala v ni na innoho desiatok rokov, praktickY as do 30. rokov minuleho storoeia.

Zaslu2ili sa '13 to predov getkYm vynikajfici odbornici z chemie ako Jacquin, Scopoli, Ruprecht, Patzier, potom skve be vybavene laboratorium akademie, do ktoreho prichadzali robit' pokusy al zazhrani6,ni ueenci ako napriklad Volta, Savaresi, Toni, Lipni a ani. Prvy chemickY svetovY- siazd se konal na Slovensku v SklenYch Tepliciach v roku 1786. V torn istom roku z iniciatyvy profesorov Runrechta a Pudu bola v SklenYch Tepliaciach zalolena„ mezinarodna spoloenost bansky sch vied, ktorej elenmi sa stall vynikajfici odborniel nielen z Europy, ale i zo zamoria..

Po jecinoroenej praxi boli absolventi podl'a svojich schopnosti pridel'ovani do jednotlivYch odborov ako banske meraestvo, apranictvo, hutnictvo, mincovnictvo alebo skagaterstvo.

Stagnacia a apadok. V polovici minty; leho storoeia moZno pozorovat' na banskej akademii akasi sta,gnaciu. Ako dtvod historici uvadzajé zaostavanie za rozvojom vedy a techniky vo svetovom meradle.

FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK CZECH FESTIVAL A SUCCESS According to my estimates, about 2,500 people attended the Czech Day festivities in the Coliseum at the State Fair on Sunday, October 11th. Not quite that many attended the events at the Band Shell It must be said that this was another successful Czech Day. It was the result of cooperation of many, many people. It is a monumental task, putting together and coordinating the activities of a couple hundred direct participants. The work starts early in the year and does not let up until the final number is over on the day of the festival. Brother Halouzka, this year's chairman, and his many co-workers, are to be sincerely congratulated. They can bask in the satisfaction that their efforts were weal received and appreciated by hundreds of Czech-Texans. This is a nondenominational, non-partisan effort, involving 8 or 9 Czech fraternal organizations in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. It could never succeed if it had the backing and support of any single body, because it simply takes the joint efforts of many more people, many more organizations. Once the people serve on the Czech Festival Committee they drop any identification with any certain organization; they are there not to promote any one organization or philosophy; they are there as Czech-Texans to help put over one of the biggest events in our state having to do with a nationality group.

Compare that to the program today: a buAding with I don't know how many seats, hundreds of participants, bands, orchestras, singing groups, great numbers of Sokol performers (who need no longer be afraid of hitting the ceiling while performing ). plus many other attractions and features. The activities can now be viewed by hundreds and hundreds of people, who may have otherwise never had a chance of looking at something of this sort. We learn by our past mistakes and shortcomings. We've come a long way in many respects. Anybody who observed the last Czech Festival would have serious doubts about our nationality feedings dying out. On the contrary, it seems that this sort of thing is currently enjoying a definite upward swing. The quality of the performances is improving constantly.

This is good because we then begin to command the attention of "outsiders."

We cannot settle for mediocrity when we display ourselves publicly.

When Brother Bubak was calling the roll of cities and towns represented, it was gratifying to note such a fine representation from around the state. It seemed that about half the audience stood when he called out the town of Ennis. There were others: Ft. Worth, Kaufman, La Grange, Granger, West, Rowena, Houston, Corpus Christi, and Chicago, Illinois. The latter was represented by a busload of Chicagoans who made a special trip from Hot Springs, Arkansas to attend the festival. Dr. J. J. Shiller, 88, of Rowena, Runnels County physician, was declared "King of the Day." He is reportedly oiling up his rifle for this season's deer hunt.

If you were among those who did not get to go to this year's Czech Festiva' for one reason or another, you missed a good deal. Not only did you miss seeing a lot of performers doing their very best but, perhaps even more important, you missed the SPIRIT, the CLIMATE of such an experience. Our SPJST strongly implies our support of such endeavors. The SPJST has and will continue to support such cultuTal efforts. It behooves us all to do likewise.

The insurance business, including that of our SPJST, is getting bigger and bigger. The odds are good that this trend will continue. Our Texas population is expanding all the time and the greater numbers of people are finding ever greater needs for insurance protection. People are becoming more "insurance-conscious," and are demanding more policies of widening scope. Right now, we are experiencing a side effect of the "population explosion": the "war babies" are growing up and coming of age. As one observer put it: "They tied the school systems in knots in the Forties and Fifties. Now, in the Sixties, they will finish school, get married, find jobs,

Wednesday, October 21, 1964 and another "explosion" starts all over again, o

The SPJST fits beautifully into the picture. The SPJST answers the need for, almost any type life insurance policy that the family or young couple needs. We must capture our share of the population explosion and extend to tho,:e young people the excellent coverage that we offer. If we don't someone else will. Look around you. Isn't there some young man or young lady that is in need of life insurance covA erage that you can recommend to your kcal organizer? People are buying more life insurance than at any time previous; they're buying it from somebody. See to it that they invest in one of our sound plans. e

Benjamin Franklin once said that the only sure things were death and taxes. He was right — as far as he went. But there's one more sure thing about YOU — your future. You can handle it one of three ways: 1) You can fret about it, but that's senseless.

2) You can ignore it, which is near impossible.

3) Or you can plan for it, and that's perfect, --SPJ51_

FROM DISTRICT FIVE Brothers and Sisters: This is my happy opportunity to announce congratulations to organizers and members of District V for making our 1964 production quota in September. And we still have three months remaining in which to make a fast finish. so that we can burst into 1965 with a running start.

There is a display elsewhere in this issue which shows the standin gs achieved by organizers of District V as of September 30th. This remarkable showing is a tribute to our organizers as well as to the many members who have taken the interest and given of their time to help them contact more prospects.

Early last December, Brother Joe B. Hejny, Vice-President, Supreme Lodge, SPJST, called the District Organizers to Temple for an annual conference.

At that meeting it was decided that the SPJST was ready to raise its sights from a Three Million Dollar quota to a $3,500,000 quota — an increase of half a million dollars! When the question of how that half million was to be divided among the districts came up, a pause developed in the proceedings.

"Brother Cerny, will you accept a quota of $1,225,000 for 1964?" was Brother Hejny's question.

"Certainly," was my response.

Although that was all that was said directly, you may be interested in what I was thinking. Our quota for 1963 had been $870.000. This was an increase of 40 per cent!

There were favorable and unfavorable reflections jumping around in my mind. First, we had just finished a contest with District 33 in which we had the stuffings kicked out of us. We had grievously missed a certain $100,000 of productian we were looking for in October and November, the period of the contest. It was several months before I fully ,understood that particular development.

Such negative thinking was swiftly dispelled by another thought. In 1961, when I was appointed District Organizer, I had assumed responsibility to develop adequately trained organizers so that we would not always have to depend on the SPJST real estate loan program to make a decent production showing in our district. I realized that we had made great strides in the direction of agency competence. This was the moment for me to demonstrate confidence in the improved ability of my fellow-workers to rise to the cbatilenge of 1964.

IS

VE STN fK

That was why I replied, "Certainly," to Brother Hejny's question with what I hope was absolutely no evidence of the momentary hesitation that I felt.

You are probably wondering why I ever struggled With momentary indecision. For a good reason. It is inevitable that most members who shoulder the responsibility of attending to the business of the lodges find the effort costly to a greater or lesser extent. In this respect, District Organizers who take substantial time away from their regutlar sources of livelihood can suffer serious financial or operational setbacks if they fail to make the quotas assigned to them. The progress achieved in District Five has taken an unbelievable amount of time.

When I responded with "Certainly" to Brother Hejny's inquiry, it was with faith in the willingness of our organizers to tackle the problem of that tremendous quota, and in the belief that they would do their best to help me accomplish it. They, with the help of so many members who wished them well, have done it in a spectacular fashion.

Should the success we have thus far enjoyed in 1964 continue throughout the whole year, this year's production will be more than the combined production of the years 1957, 1958, 1959, and 1960.

This demonstration of fraternal goodwill and brotherly cooperation will always be remembered and appreciated by me.

TEEN CLUB, LODCE NO. 6 COTTONWOOD

Dear Club Members, These are the few lines that I promised you I would write to let you know about our skating party.

In regard to the answer I received .from Ropier Rink" in Hillsboro, the rules are as follows: They are open only on Friday and Saturday nights, and Saturday mornings from 9 to 11 o'clock.

The admission is 65c a person for the first session and 10c more for the second session, if you want to skate longer.

I have decided that it would be much better to postpone our party that was set for Oct. 24th to a later date sometime in November. We will discuss this at our next meeting, Nov. 1st.

I hope all of you wilt read this message and not plan on the date for Oct. 24th.

Also, a reminder on the Merit Books and point system sheets contest. They will have to be turned in and judged in our December meeting at our lodge.

I do hope that a lot of you will be able to come to the District III meeting at Elk Oct. 25th.

IT' be seeing you.

-SPJ STSOKOL STAMP COMMITTEE MEETS WITH POSTMASTER GRONOUSICI October 7th, 1964, will be recorded in the history of the Sokol Centennial Commemorative Stamp Committee as a memorial one. It brought incontestable proof of the recognition of the Sokol Movement as a pioneer and vital factor in the physical fitness trainMg of the nation.

Yards and Gardens ANNUALS FURNISH COLOR AND BEAUTY FOR FALL AND WINTER. GARDENS 5y A. F. DeWerth, Professor of Floriculture, Texas A & M University In areas of Texas with open winters, annual flowering plants are a must for fall and winter color in the garden, although prevailing tempera-

Wednesday, October 21, 1904 tures must be carefully considered.

Day temperatures during October and November and even early December seem to be ideal for good plant growth and development. As the season progresses into December, however, night temperatures may drop so low that they will prevent flowering on many annual plants.

To insure good winter blooming on annuals plant them early enough in the fall to develop food flower buds before low night temperatures slow down or stop their growth. There are a considerable number of annuals, and perennials treated as such, that are well adapted to fall and winter gardens. Each plant has its own growth limits during cold nights; plants used for fait.' and winter flowering can be placed into groups based upon their response to climatic conditions.

Pansies and other species of Viola can withstand almost any climatic conditions in fall and winter gardens.

They can endure freezing weather, need low temperatures to set flower buds, and wilt continue to bloom through the fall and winter regardless of most weather changes.

Stocks and snapdragons are another group of winter garden favorites that are in a class by themselves.

While these annuals survive temperatures as low as 18 to 20 degrees F., they need the warm days and nights of October and November to produce good early growth and should be in bud stage by the end of November at the least.

Another cool- season annual, Calendula, also responds well to climatic conditions in fall and winter gardens.

In areas void of heavy frosts with mild winters, fibrous rooted begonias, cinerarias, fiery primroses, gazanias and other annuals can provide extensive bloom during the cool spring months, even though they may be damaged slightly during winter cold spells, Violas and pansies should be available soon from nurseries and shoufld be planted when purchased. These come in separate and in mixed colors with numerous selections of flower size and abundance of bloom.

This year a wide selection of sna p -dragonshuldbeavilforamost any garden purpose. The newer, All-American winner Rochet types are tall growing plants with long flower spikes but are more suited to summer gardens in Texas. Pest choice in the coastal area for fall and winter gardens are the tall growing Tetra types, now available in separate colors of

Wednesday, October 21, 1964 white, rose, red, pink, copper and yellow, as well as mixed,.

For medium weight plants from 18 to 24 inches, consider United Sprites.

They do not need staking and are available in mixed colors.

Magic Carpet strains are extremely well suited for low, dwarf garden effects. A new dwarf strain introduced this year is Floral Carpet, growing only eight inches tall.

Stocks for fall planting should be available in two well known strains.

The Dwarf Ten Week is useful for mass planting or for planting in flower borders; plants are available in separate colors. Also well suited to fall and winter gardens is the Trysomic Hi-Doubte. This is a tall growing branching strain that produces a high percentage of double-flowered plants and is offered in single colors or in mixtures.

The newer trend toward the use of various vegetables in garden plantings should not be overlooked in fall or winter gardens. Parsley and lettuce make ood low border subjects; carrots and beets can be used as intermediate effects. Green-curred endive and red swisschard can be mixed into the border where talter accents are needed.

These annuals should be planted as early as possible so that they will be well established before the cold nights of December occur,.

ARSENIC CONTROLS NUTGRASS IN BERMUDAGRASS TURF Purple nutsedge, commonly caned nutgrass, can now be controlled by herbicides containing organic arsenic compounds, reports Dr. E. C. Holt of the Departnient Of Soil and Crop Sciences, Texas A & M University.

Nutgrass is a serious problem in Bermudagrass, a grass used for turf on home lawns, athletic fields and other sites, says Holt. Its extensive underground tuber system makes nutsedge extremely difficult to control.

Research has found nutgrass shoots sensitive to arsenic herbicides, Holt points out, while Bermudagrass is tolerant to these compounds. Thus, selective control of nutgrass is possible with several of the methylarsonate formulations, a primary one being disodium methylarsonate.

60-100 per cent concentrate solution should be used. says Holt. Three to five ounces of the formulation in two to four gallons of water per 1,000 square feet is usually sufficient.

Several applications of the herbicide are necessary, says Holt, because of

VESTNfK numerous shoot buds on each underground tuber and numerous dormant tubers which are activated when other tubers in the same system are killed.

Lateral translocation of the arsenic in the tuber system does not kill dormant tubers, explains Holt.

Applications should be repeated whenever new shoots appear, Holt points out, which may be as often as three to five time's.

Aside from eliminating nutgrass from a Bermudagrass turf, arsenic compounds also serve as an effective control of crabgrass, Holt adds.

However, it should be remembered, warns Holt, that St. Augustinegrass is highly susceptible to these compounds and, therefore, such treatment should me avoided. e—A.&M. Extension Service —SPJSTFor

PORK CHOPS WILL WAIT ON FAMILY Having a recipe for meat cookery that can be used when dinner time is uncertain is an asset to any cook's file.

Here is a recipe for Baked Pork Chops.

These spicy pork chops will "wait" until the family is together because they will stay moist in their sauce of tow calorie skim milk. These chops can also be prepared earlier in the day and stored in the refrigerator and baked just before serving time. The zesty skim milk sauce is delicious spooned over buttered noodles.

Baked Pork Chops 6 pork chops, 1-inch thick 2 teaspoons salt 1/2 teaspoon pepper 14 teaspoon thyme 1/z teaspoon paprika 6 slices onion; 1/4 inch thick 3 tablespoons butter 1/4 cup flour 2 1/2 cups skim milk 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 clove garlic, crushed 1 teaspoon soy sauce 1 bay leaf Combine salt, pepper, thyme and paprika. Sprinkle mixture on both sides of chops. Brown chops on both sides in butter. Arrange chops in a 12x7 1/2 x2-inch baking pan. Place an onion slice on each. Stir flour into drippings. Gradually stir in skim milk.

Add salt, garlic, soy sauce and bay leaf.

Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened. Remove bay leaf. Pour sauce over chops.

23 Bake at 350 F. for one hour or until chops are thoroughly done. Serves six.

FREEZER BUYING TIP CONSIDER SIZE FIRST Size is one of the first major items to consider when a family plans to buy a home freezer.

Space requirements depend on the kinds and quantities of foods to be frozen and stored in a year, and the rate of turnover. This in turn depends on such factors as size of the family, source of foods, and length of time between growing seasons.

Home freezers range in size from about 3 to 30 cubic feet of food storage space.

To convert size in cubic feet to capacity in pounds of food, the common practice is to multiply by 35, the agent explains. However, if the freezer is filled with a miscellany of foods in a variety of packages, the number of pounds per cubic foot may not be more than 30 or 25.

Six cubic feet of freezer space per person will meet the general needs of most families. If freezing is to supplement other methods of food preservation, or if a locker plant is to serve as the main means of storage, 3 cubic feet per person will usually be an ample allowance for the home freezer.

When most of the food for the year is stored in the home freezer, and there is much overlapping of storage times for the various foods, 10 cubic feet per person may not be excessive.

For additional information, ask for the bulletin, "Home Freezers, Their Selection and Use" at your Home Demonstration Office.

24 BANANA BREAD TREAT Faced with a five-day-a-week lunchbox to fill? With the wide variety of breads and spreads and beverages and fillips to choose from, it should be comparatively easy. But, chances are the menu will settle into a pattern of sorts, with soup or milk, sandwiches and relishes, fruit and cookies.

Nothing wrong with that, but why not make that school or office-bound lunch a bit special now and then?

With a homemade loaf of. Banana Quick Bread, perhaps. Sunny bananas add their unique mellow flavor and, what's more, help keep the loaf fresh and moist, right down to the last slice. And. it's really remarkably simple to make. Takes kindly to all kinds of spreads — cheese and bacon, nutted cream cheese, most any kind of preserve.

Ripe and flavorful bananas are the best choice for this quick bread, and for a wealth of other favorite banana dishes as well. That's because more care has been taken to preserve their tropical goodness by packing them in protective boxes, right in Central America. This helps reduce the jostles and bounces fruit shipped up on the stem used to suffer. There's a seal right on the peel to help identify these pampered bananas.

Don't forget that a banana makes an excellent fruit choice for tucking into lunch totes. Even weight watchers can enjoy 'em — only 88 callories in a medium size banana, you know!

Banana Quick Bread 1/3 cup shortening 2/3 cup sugar 2 eggs, slightly beaten 1 3/1, cups sifted all-purpose flour 211 teaspoons double-acting baking powder % teaspoon salt teaspoon salt 1 cup mashed ripe bananas Preheat oven to 350 F. (moderate).

Beat shortening until creamy and glossy, or two minutes at medium speed on electric mixer. Gradually add sugar, beating until light and fluffy after each addition. Add eggs and beat until thick and pale lemon in color.

Stir dry ingredients; add alternately with bananas; blend thoroughly after each addition. Grease bottom only of a loaf pan (approx. 4 1/2 x81/2x3 inches).

Turn batter into pan. Bake 60 to 70 minutes or until cake tester inserted in center comes out clean and dry. Let bread partially cool in pan (20 to 30 minutes) before turning onto rack.

Makes one loaf.

VESTNIK CONSUMERS SHOULD GIVE STRETCH GARMENTS PROPER CARE Fabric manufacturers have offered consumers greater comfort in stretch garments. Now, prospective buyers need to be more discerning consumers, says Lynn Parks, Extension consumer education specialist.

The comfort feature is keyed to America's accelerated way of life. Be-. fore buying a garment, consumers should determine if the stretch property of the fabric or garment really adds to its comfort in wearing, Or is it just a promotional sakes gimmick taking advantage of the new and different product.

Use of the arment should determine whether or •not stretch is needed, how much stretch is needed, and where the stretch should be," says Miss Parks.

Get the correct type of stretch for a garment, and giye it proper care, she says.

In selecting garments or fabrics of stretch, the direction of the stretch is important. Today's fabrics have warp, lengthwise or vertical; filling, crosswise or horizontal; and two. - way stretch, a combination of warp and For longer wear, an extra margin of stretch its recommended. Research results on the amount of stretch desired show: Tailored clothing, horizontal stretch, 25 to 35 per cent; pants with stirrups, vertical, 40 to 60 per cent stretch; sportswear, horizontal, 25 to 40 per cent.

Sizing of stretch garments should follow regular, sizing methods. Stretch garments have the advantage of a tailored smooth fit, yet provide for• movement when it is needed. They are not intended to be worn skin-tight.

In caring for stretch garments, give them a chance to relax and snap back into shape, often. Let the arments rest between wearings. Launder press in relation to the most heat-sensitive fiber. Read !labels for fiber contents and care procedure, the speoialist recommends.

For Your Information: HIKING AND HEALTH Walking or hiking is an excellent exercise that involves many of the muscles of the body. One of its big advantages is that walking is universally available as an exercise nearly every day of the year. The strenuousness of the activity depends on the pace and, distance.

Wednesday, October 21, 1964 Walking ,can have mental health values, too, if we learn to enjoy the exercise and the open air, says a pamphlet of the American Medical Association. Pleasant activity can help to relieve emotional tension. Exercise is most likely to be enjoyable when the activity is done 'with ease and skill.

Like any form of 'exercise, walking requires a period of gradual conditioning before any all-out effort. If you are out ,of training, start slowly with shart hikes and gradually build up the time and distance.

The feet take quite a beating in walking. Be sure that shoes fit properly, are well braken in and have no rough spots inside. Wearing two pair of socks helps. The feet function best when the toes point straight ahead in walking. Walking with toes turned in or out distributes the body's weight unequally on the feet.

The American Medical Association cautions the untrained person against an exercise orgy in hiking or in any other vigorous physical activity. The enthusiast who tries to do it all at once often ends up with stiff muscles and a stiffer resolve to avoid exercise in the future. A medical checkup before beginning an exercise program is a wise precaution to be sure no health problems exist that might be aggravated by exercise. The level of activity should be built up slowly with consideration for age, condition, and general response to exercise.

-SPJST- Meat Production Steady Meat production under federal inspection was 532 million pounds for the week ending September 26, about the same as the previous week, but 10 per-::cent higher than for the same period last year. For the second straight week remained at a record 525,000 head, 20 per cent more than a year ago. The number of hogs slaughtered was down 1 per cent from a pear ago. Sheep. and lamb slaughter was 10 per cent below the 1963 figure.

---SP3ST--COCK RAIDS CAPITOL IN BID FOR FREEDOM Austin --- You would have done the same thing had you been a wild game bird, confined in a small cardboard box and whisked from your native habitat halfway across the country into ominous surroundings.

A brightly plumaged cock pheasant at least made a run for it when it was taken to Parks and Wildlife Department headquarters on the Capita grounds enroute from California to its

Wednesday, October 21, 1964 new home in the Texas coastal plains.

The gallant bird jerked loose from an inspector and blasted off straight up into the air , in the typical technique which has been handcuffing expert scattergunners for years. Even .with its bright tail feathers clipped for shipping purposes, the speedster maneuvered spectacularly, quickly cased the granite and concrete canyons and head-id directly for the Capitol build-, ing itself, two bloeks distant.

That touched off a comedy of reL action that would have shamed a Keystone Comedy combination. A television, cameraman was more surprised than the suddenly freed bird.

He just stood and watched the escape.

Two still photographers (dropped their cameras and took off after the feathered fugitive.

Notoriously secretive in its natural habitat, the frenzied bird fluttered through a metal grating at ground level, against the Capitol, sneaked down a window well leading to the Capitol basement and flattened itself in a dark corner.

Capitol security police opened the subterranean window barely enough, for one of the gasping cameramen to squeeze through to grab the pheasant.

Net loss: A few tail feathers, some claw marks on the exhausted retrievers and a torn shirt.

Net gain: Another reason why these tenacious game birds have gained great fame for their uncanny survival talents.

PHEASANTS BRING NEW HUNT HOPE Austin — Seventy-five pioneering pheasants reportedly are thriving in the coastal plains area between Palacious and Blessing, in the latest major restoration effort by the Parks and Wildlife Department to provide more hunting opportunities for Texas sportsmen.

J. Weldon Watson, executive director, said the hybrid pheasants blending ringneck and Mongolian varieties, were released in an area considered almost identical. with their native habi-

VtSTNfK tat in the Sacramento Valley of California.

One hundred and fifty of the game birds were flown direct to Dallas after being wild trapped the day before.

They were then placed on a truck for their destinations via Austin headquarters.

One half of the birds were sent to the state hatchery at Tyler as brood stock for future needs.

"This is strictly an experiment, and Is in line with the Department policy of constantly testing new game bird importations to try to provide more hunting," said Watson. "We do have high hopes for this latest test."

Wildlife Biologist Joe Davidson, who supervised the project, said conditions in the coastal area are very similar to the California location. "We released these birds in three groups of twenty hens and five cocks each," he said.

"They are in an area comprising about twenty-five per cent rice, twenty-five percent corn, twenty-five per cent maize and twenty-five per cent pasture."

Davidson said the pheasants would benefit from more rainfall than they were accustomed to and likewise should prosper on the superior calcium supply from the oyster shell used to ,surface roads in the coastal region.

"This lime ingredient," he said, "enhances body growth and is very helpful at nesting time."

Davidson Said further studies are being niade of possibly importing pheasants from the more southern Imperial Valley in California where the' game birds also thrive. lie said conditions there seeme to closely resemble' those in the Rio Grande Valley and in Texas areas farther to the west.

Now, the only substantial stock of Texas wild pheasants comprise the have spread into the Panhandle counties from the adjoining Oklahoma Panhandle. There is a late season this year from December 1 to 7 inclusive for the Panhandle, although pheasants do not occur in all the 34 counties. The daily Limit is two cocks, with four in possession after the opening day.

Watson stressed "the fantastic North American ringneek success story" dating back to the few Chinese ringnecks released in South Dakota around the turn of the century. Tlkese beautiful exotic birds, enduring, blizzards, drought, a 150-degree annual temperature ran g e and privations fatal to less hardy creatures, now have spread all over the midwest and northwest. They are prolific breeders and the annual

28 harvest, he said, is one of the highest of the fall shooting season in all. of North America.

FALSE CREDIT It's easy to buy things on time if your credit is good. But some people try to make their credit look good when it isn't. This can lead to the crime of "theft by Ialse pretenses."

In a recent case Sam Sadd wanted a new car just like his neighbor's.

At the Super Care Agency Sam could buy his new car for $300 down and 36 monthly payments.

The Agency asked Sam. to sign a credit report. Sam reported that he made $650 a month, had a $65 car allowance a month, and his wife worked for $400 a month.

Sam drove off with the new car.

But when he fell down on his payments, the agency repossessed the car and found that Sam never did have the income he claimed. Truth was Sam was making only $500 when he worked, and he had taken a leave of absence and had never gone back to his job.

His wife had not worked for years.

The agency complained to the district attorney, charging Sam with theft by false pretenses.

Sam was guilty as charged.

Though no one can be put in prison for debt, he can go to prison for fraud, if, when he "bought" the goods, he never meant to pay at all, any time.

But it is no crime if he just happened to be broke but made no false claims.

Using another's credit card without his permission is also a crime, just as it is to use one's own credit extensively, knowing full well that he cannot or will not make payments. Again, this is theft by false pretenses.

--seJsT-ELECTION STATISTICS America as a whole lags far behind the other democracies in the proportion of eligible voters who actually go to the polls. This is particularly true of mid-term elections when the vote falls behind that cast in presidential election years.

In the 1962 election, only 47.0 per cent of the potentially eligible voters actually voted. That compares with re-

26 cent election participation percentages in the democracies of Western Europe as follows: Great Britain '78.7 per cent; Italy 93.7 per cent; West Germany 87.7 per cent; Norway 79.1 per cent; Switzerland 68.5 per cent.

In Texas, 41.8 per cent of the exigible voters voted in the 1960 presidential election; 27.7 per cent voted in the mid-term election in 1962. This year, 5,922,000 persons are eligible to vote in Texas according to the Census Bureau.

ABOUT ENCEPHALITIC it's the unknown that frightens — particularly if it is a disease with a long name like encephalitis.

In recent weeks the ominous sounding word — encephalitis — resounded across Texas. The reason: an encephalitis epidemic in the SouthPlains and Houston areas.

The epidemic is definitely on the decline, health officials reported, but many continued to be concerned.

One woman in a Central Texas town, miles from the epidemic areas, refused to let her children go swimming, afraid they might "catch" encephalitis.

Others, however, sought information about this ►little-known disease. And they discovered that this terrible sounding name is a Greek derivative meaning "an infla.mation of the brain."

Encephalitis — a virus disease— is not communicated from man to man, so far as scientists now know. The mosquito carries the virus from infected birds or small reptiles.

Not all persons bitten by mosquitoes become sick. Only a small percentage show signs of illness. Sometimes this may be sa slight as to be passed off as as a mild case of flu. Severe infections may be accompanied by high fever, stupor, mental confusion, coma, tremors and sometimes convulsions in infants. Some exhibit only a few symptoms.

There is no vaccine to prevent the disease in man, and there is no magic cure once a person contacts it.

The answer lies in prevention — mosquito control. Mosquitoes breed, multiplying by the thousands, in puddles of standing water, small potholes, grassy edges of ponds and irrigation seepage areas.

Eliminate these breeding places, destroy adult mosquitoes with recommended insecticides, check all screens on your home for holes or cracks and if you are outdoors during the evening — mosquito feeding time — wear

VESTNtK protective clothing and insect repellent.

Rather than shrinking in fright from the disease with the strange name, join your efforts with those who are fighting encephalitis' vector — the mosquito.

—Texas State ept. of Health --orJSTFAIR TRIAL

Our notions of due process of law are likely to be lumped and dismissed as lawyers' "technicalities." Yet due process which is largely your procedural rights in our court system has its roots deeply in the American people's long fight for a fair trial.

It is true that your lawyer selects the proper court — federal or state; district, county, or justice — in which to file your case. For unless the court has jurisdiction, it cannot render a judgment — and make it stick. The court must exercise lawful control over the property ar the persons invctived in a lawsuit. The American revolutionaries in 1776 took to arms in large part against King George over due process. The Declaration of Independence said: "He (King George) has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers. He has made judges dependent on his will alone for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries."

They further complained bitterly "for transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offenses."

"Venue," a court's proper location to try cases, is important. Otherwise, the Administration of Justice is impaired.

The American who had sailed to England for his trial could justly say that he was being denied due process of the law.

And so, in Texas today certain suits are local. In such cases one can sue only where the property, person, or the transaction involved in the contest was located. Example: A foreclosure of a mortgage on real estate. Other actions may be brought anywhere the defendant can be found and served with a summons.

"Venue" means the place where the action is tried. In civil suits it may be changed by argument between the two parties, or for the convenience of the parties.

Where a case has had wide publicity before trial, especially notorious criminal cases, a lawyer may seek a change of enue — of location of the trial — in order to get unbiased jurors.

Wednesday, October 21, 1964 Jurisdiction and venue, only two of several concepts of due process, may seem dry as dust at times, but not if your liberty depends upon a fair trial.

STATEWIDE PANEL PLANNIING MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES With mental illness ranked as the nation's No. 1 health problem today, Texans are trying to do something about it.

A statewide effort to improve and modernize present methods of patient care and facilities, and state law on mental care, is nearing completion, according to County Judge C. L. Abernethy of Hale County, chairman of the general planning committee.

The new state plan for mental health services is being written by a 112member planning committee made up of citizens throughout the State.

Judge Abernethy and others involved in the planning feel that Texas needs a new community-centered treatment plan to ,fit the varying needs of mentally ill citizens — from the first symptoms of disorder through the wide range of more serious illness.

"The new idea of treating mental illness in local communities is replacing old concepts of sending people far from home and isolating them from society," Judge Abernethy says. "We should focus on the community itself, because that is where we can get the most effective results."

An estimated 77,000 Texans get psychiatric aid' each year, but statistics indicate that Texas ranks last among the 50 states in per capita spending for maintenance of public mental hospitals and 43rd in the care and treatment of public mental patients.

The Texas effort to develop new ways and laws to cope with mental illness was inspired by former President Eisenhower and pushed forward by legislation during the Kennedy administration.

The actual planning work has been done by the statewide committee in. four work sessions in Austin, with the fifth and final session coming up August 7-8. The committee is divided into 13 task forces on such matters as legis-

Serving with Judge Abernethy on the executive committee are Dr. James E. Peavy, state commissioner of health, chairman; Dr. Cyril J. Ruilmann, director of mental health and hospitals for the Board of Texas State Hospitals and Special Schools, co-chairman; and Dr. Robert L. iSutherland, director of the Hogg Foundation for Mental Health at the University of Texas. Dr. autherland is vice-chairman of the general planning committee.

A steering committee of 17 educators and medical men are assisting the executive committee. Administrative arm of the planning effort is the Office of Mental Health Planning in Austin, headed by Dr. Moody C. Bettis, phychiatrist-coordinator.

Dr. Bettis is on leave from the Houston State Psychiatric Institute and Baylor Medical School, Houston, to direct the administrative work.

Judge Abernethy emphasizes that

the statewide planning group is seeking public opinion on which to base its recommendations to the Governor and the Legislature. Persons wishing to obtain further information about the new State Plan for Mental Health Services are invited to write to the Office of Mental Health Planning, 410 East 5th Street, Austin.

-SPJSTTwenty-nine per cent of the approximately 2.7 million Texas families have

incomes of less than $3,000, according to available census information and research studies. The Extension home demonstration staff participated in a workshop recently to explore additional programs and methods for getting information to these families. Workshop participants took a look at what Texas Extension and other agencies and organizations are already doing in educational efforts to hap these families and mapped plans for expanding the programs.

Gourmet's Delight Glatzmaier's Fish Market in Houston is one of the few places in Texas where those wanting something diffreent to eat can find it. They'll sell you such morsels as octopus, alligator gar and alligator tails --- but their stock isn't limited to fish. Fresh raccoon, oppossum, armadillo and three different kinds of wild rabbit--swamp, cottontail and Jack—are available during season.

Early Oil Men Frontier settlers spent a lot of time prospecting for oil, using a four-foot stick forked at one end. The source of the oil? Rattlesnakes.

The forked stick held the snake's head pinioned while the settler cut it off with a pocket knife. The snake then was relieved of its fat, which was

boiled until it became a substance "as free of dregs as the morning's dew and the color of good clover honey."

The resulting rattlesnake oil was both a favorite lubricant and a home medication. It was used as an oil for guns, a softener of old leather and as a sure cure for rheumatism.
