ANONYMOUS SWAMP WOODSTOCK 18 TO J IN OPENfcR Manager Ted Pitsen got' his Johnsburg Tigers off to a flying start' on the home grounds last Sunday afternoon as they whaled away to a lopsided 18 to 3 victory over the Woodstock entry In the McHenry county Baseball League. Weather conditions shortened the game to 7 innings. Cold weather and wet grounds failed to cause the Tigers into a postponement. With no canoes available, they simply made ground rales for any balls driven into the deep center field gondola' land. Balls driven into this area were two-base hits. The Johnsburg lineup was quite different from the '49 model as several rookies took their places afield. Hats, who played third base laat season, moved to first base and showed that he is much more at home wit^ a first-sacker's mitt dangling from his hand. King, one of the rookies, played third base. While he wasn't busy on the defense, King showed up well at the* plate with a walk and two singles. Dick Hiller played second base | and led off the batting order with two doubles and a single. "Tony Freund, who started as an fnfielder last year, moved to right field where his speed should prove valuable. A fellow who Is a few years out of the rookie class, George Jack* son, was the clean-up hitter, cleaning up with two doubles and a single. Willie Klapperich and Ted Pitsen formed an impressive looking battery as 12 Woodstock batters bit the dust on strikeouts.

Charity In Children Although "cleanliness la next to Godliness," do not stifle the practices of charity to the effort to keep your children clean.

A Bit of Doing Grandpa was trying to impress his grandson the futility of fighting. 'Look, young feller," he said, "you've Just come hdme from a fight with the little boy down the street. Now you have an enemy, haven't you?" "No, sir," replied the lad, "Jimmy's my friend." Grandpa didn't want to get involved in that issue so he adhered to the enemy theory. "But he might become an enemy," he pointed out, "and then you might have a lot of trouble with him later on. Take me for Instance, I get along very well with everybody. I haven't got an enemy In the world." "Sure, I know, grandpa," the boy replied, "that's because you outlived them all."

Green S|. fhume McHenry 490 A taate test to compare Brahman, Braford, and Hereford rdasts wat recently conducted on the Davis campus of the University of California. Rib roasts were taken from all three types of catjle, cooked to medium, and tasted by 26 persons in the college of agriculture, Including home economists and members of the division of animal husbandry. The seven home economists rated all three similar in flavor, but gave Braford first place in texture and tenderness. Second place went to Hereford. Of 19 tasters in the animal husbandry division, 14 placed Hereford first in tenderness. Eleven said Hereford had the best flavor, while ten declared all roasts equal in aroma. Braford sliced more easily, and hid more'dripping fat, though it took longer to cook to medium, a fact which may have been due to a Variation in size, said N. B. Ittner, associate specialist, and H. R. Guilbert, professor of animal husbandry, who conducted the test. The cattle from which the roasts were obtained were raised at the Imperial Valley fi41d station where both Ittner and Guilbert are conducting feeding tests with the three types of cattle in an effort to learn their habits, temperament, rate of growth and shrinkage in transitinformation which will be of value to cattle rancher!

Copper screening, flashings or downspouts, are often the cause of such unsightly discoloration. To prevent it, copper screening should be coated with screen enamel or with spar varnish thinned slightly with turpentine or mineral spirits. Other copper surfaces should be coated with regular house paint. Before painting, make sure that the copper is thoroughly clean. A fine grade of sandpaper-- 6-0--is usually employed for cleaning such a metal surface or for roughening new copper that is hard and slick. This preliminary treatment will aid the adhesion of the.new coating. Handle "BHC" With Care Veterinarians have issued a fresh warning that the insecticide, BHC, must be used with caution on farm animals and around the feeds they consume. Careless or imtimely use of this parasite-killing chemical, which has a slightly musty odor, may produce a moldyhay flavor in hog meat, poultry, eggs, and milk, according to the American Veterinary Medical association. The association adds that farmers will do well to investigate "the disadvantages as well as the advantages of bdnzene hexachloride (BHC), and the specific indications for its use." !

In fashioning the human nature has made it possible for hUn to "hear" or "respond" to sound waves which vibrate between about 20 times and 20,000 timet per second. Dogs, pigeons, ants other animals are able to "M to sounds with higher frequencies. Except for possessing a higher frequency, ultrasonic waves are not essentially different from ordinary audible sound waves. For many years scientists* who have been interested in sonic and ultrasonic energy have studied the properties of this form of vibrating energy. When the "Titanic," the "unsinkable ship" slipped benesib the surface of the Atlantic Ocmfi after striking an iceberg in 191S, the application of ultrasonic energy^ to the detection of icebergs was kt> vented. These investigations developed means of measuring the depth of the ocean floor, methods for communicating between vessels and methods of detecting surface and submarine craft through ultrasonic waves. Today, ultrasonics are employed by commercial fishers ID locate schools of fish. Other applications which have captured the imagination of tbe public are the use of ultrasonics to open garage doors, to wash clothiea and to dispel fogs over airports.
