The Market Basket: | Apples. to. 'Z' for Zucchini Squash/

; NOW THAT THE PEAK of the ‘Marion ‘county cantaloupe season : service’s weekly fruit and vegetable

here, the agricultural extension

ews offers some tips on selecting a melon.

“First, the service advises, look at the stem end. There should: bea smooth, even scar, with no stem attached. Next, look at the rind. It|'

should be firm and well-netted. The color beneath the netting should

have a yellowish tinge. This week] ‘there is a liberal supply of fine ' quality, sweet, vine-ripened melons ‘on the market. Tomatoes are continuing their run as “star” buys in the vegetable line. They were designated as a victory food special for this area | for the period of Aug. 24 through ' Sept. 5—the first food to play. a . return engagement — “at popular . prices.” Earlier in the summer, fresh tomatoes were designated as a victory special for fresh use. Indiana is now harvesting a record acreage of tomatoes. Every homemaker can help conserve tin and release larger quantities of commercial = canned tomatoes for our armed forces and allies by canning tomatoes. *

» 2 = + The Vegetable Market A GOOD SUPPLY of green beans is: reaching ‘the market now. The quality of both stringless and Kentucky Wonder’ beans has improved some duting the past few days, the extension . ‘service reports. The wholesale price of green beans: this week: has warranted home canning. The sweet corn supply has. dropped off some during the past few: days, but that reaching- here is of fine quality and there has heen only a slight increase in price. There is a liberal supply of large cucumbers. available. These are excellent for salads or for making dill pickles. The supply of sweet and hot peppers is large and the market warrants their use for canning or making ited pices.

Apple Supply Good Other home grown vegetables the homemaker will find on the market this week are beets, carrots, cabbage. greens, squash, -endive and leaf lettuce. Several varieties of summer squash are appearing— acorn, Patty Pan, Hubbard and Zucchini. The quantity of peaches available this week has not been large enough to cause any decrease in price. The heavy harvest is over and the price this week-end is higher than it was a week ago. There will be fine quality Elberta peaches for fresh use on the market for ‘another week yet. The “homemaker will find apples the No. '1 fresh fruit ‘buy at the present time. Locally grown Maiden Blush and Wealthy, both fine ¢ooking apples, are coming on the market, in large quantities. There are a Jew summer Rambo apples available for eating.

Pat Haywood's Singing Career Started ‘On a Bad Footing’ In His Own Home State

By HELEN WORDEN \Times Special Writer NEW YORK, Aug. 28.—Indiana’s Pat Haywood and his young wife, Jo Jean Rogers, form half of the popular Four Teens quartet appearing nightly with Johnny Long's orchestra at the Hotel New Yorker." But Pat says that his singing career began on a bad footing back in

“Buddy Bryant asked me to serve as rhythm singer with Tis ore -

chestra,” he told me today. “As I walked across the stage for my first tune on the air, my head was high. “Suddenly: I ‘tripped over the microphone, falling flat on my face. That flustrated me so that half way through the song my voice gave way. I vowed I'd never sing again. : 5 I saw Pat and Jo Jean today in Rockefeller center following a rehearsal of the Four Teens. Blue-eyed and personable, he wore tan slacks with 3 blue shirt and “tie. Jo Jean, an sittactive brunet, looked like an ingenue in her becoming pink .and white cotton frock. The other members of the quartet ‘are '<Jo Jean’s sister, Phyllis, and ‘George Richmond, a Memphis boy.

Appear in Radio

“We broadcast each night with Johnny Long's orchestra over CBS,” Pat told me. “The other evening the radio announcer announced the wrong tune. Just as we were ready fo sing ‘Who Wouldn't Love You,” he told the audience they would hear ‘Idaho.’ “We weren't sure whether the mistake was his or ours. Besides, we didn’t ‘know ‘whether the or-

| chestfa would decide to switch

numbers. So we took a chance

and started ‘Who Wouldn't Love

You.’ Fortunately the orchestra followed “suit.” Another near catastrophe occurred this week when a drunk decided during one of the numbers that he wanted to speak from coast to coast. He made a grab for the microphone. In between notes Pat and the others tried to ward him off.

Born in Lafayette

“Fortunately we out-numbered him,” said Jo Jean: “He should have picked on a soloist, not a quartet.” : The four are accustomed to

emergencies. When Jo Jean and

Phyllis sang with the Martins quartet ‘in: “Three After Three,” Pat played the guitar in the or-

chestra. He used to make faces.

Complicated suits over estates involving a long list of heirs have been frozen by judges if ‘even one of the 20 or more litigants is in the army. One attorney who had been fighting ‘a law suit over large property

was about to get the thing settled for a final decree ‘last week when it was discovered that a husband of one of the heirs in the estate was in the army.

They have more patience, pay greater attention to detail, the foremen agree. One personnel manager admitted that because of this care he would rather jump with. a. parachute inspected by. a woman than with one that had been given final okay by a man. ; 70 Per Cent Women = At the P. R. Mallory Co., manufacturers of communications. equipment, women . represented 70 per cent of persons employed there last week. And this high balance is in a plant that already had a roster of 40 per cent women workers. The Curiiss-Wright propeller division, which started its. present production volume only a year ago, turns out its huge victory program with women representing 19 per cent of the payroll. And that representation is expected to. skyrocket

to 80 per cent in some production 3 : : | fort's sake:
