Miss Taylor was given a very lovely compact, Mr. Fulton and the senior boys were given nice looking cuff links. It was very nice of the cheerleaders to go through the trouble and it was very much appreciated. IAA ASKS MORE STATE AID FOR FARM RESEARCH The Illinois Agricultural ' association has asked thdt 'more mo&ey be appropriated by the state legislature for agricultural research and extension. A Resolution passed by the IAA board of directors called upon the Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois to reconsider its previous action and to increase the funds for the agricultural extension service by $500,000. It also called for an increase of $600,000 in agricultural research funds for the College of Agricultuiii. / during biennium. * . • C * - In addition, the resolution asked that; (1) some increase should be made in the money spent on veterinary medical re economics building be built at the University of Illinois. "Much of the remarkable progress made by agriculture toward supplying the needs of our nation for food and fibre at reduced costs has been a direct result of agricultural research," the IAA statement said. "Recent estimates indicate a continued rapid increase in our total national population and a corresponding increase in our needs for food and fibre. No longer can we bring into cultivation new lands. We must secure greater output per acre and per animal unit. "Illinois should be one of the leading states in the nation in its support of agricultural research. YeV Illinois ranks forty-third among the states in comparing the research funds available to the value of farm production. We cannot take any pride in this position of ranking in our sup- POEMS PUBLISHED Nancy Katherine Knaak, who taught English at Crystal Lake Community high school until recently, has a book of poems entitled "Clouds of Time" just published.

Order If you find you are not as efficient around eleven each morning; if you begin to get a "draggy" feeling at mid-afternoon; if your youngsters don't show the zip and mental alertness which you expect --maybe it's because the family isn't doing right by itself at breakfast! That's what a list of learned nutrition experts, doctors and others are saying. They've made extensive tests which show that neglect of the first meal of tbe day definitely cuts down on efficiency. Some of them go so far as to say that skimping on breakfast is a contributing factor among children in general poor health. These experts stress the fact that breakfast should provide onefourth to one-third of the total daily caloric needs as well as a proportionate share of all the .essential nutrients. Yet it is the one meal 'most often slighted by adults and children alike. A recent survey conducted by the University of Iowa Medical School indicated a neglect of good breakfasts in all age groups. Results showed that out of five children, only one goes to school with a goodbreakfast. Among the boys and -girls, the survey revealed that sixty percent of the teen-age girls were in the habit of eating a breakfast entirely inadequate to their physical needs while twice as many older teen-age boys had poorer breakfast habits in comparison with the younger teen-agers. Women rank as the worst offenders in the older age bracket with only ftorty percent of them eating what nutritionists term a good breakfast. The men had a somewhat higher average with fifty-six percent of those surveyed saying they had a good breakfast. The studies showed that those persons eating a good breakfast daily had a greater work output, shorter reaction time and less shakiness after exercising. Those eating a poor breakfast showed a decrease in maximum work output, an increase both in simple and choice reaction time and an increase in tremor magnitude. A basic breakfast pattern, such as that being eaten by the typical American family pictured above, has been formulated by leading nutritionists and medical authorities. It consists of fruit or fruit juice, cereal (hot or ready to eat), milk, bread and butter or fortified margarine. This basic breakfast does not, except in a few instances, equal one-tourth to one-third of the total daily caloric needs. It is merely a nutritional pattern structure to be increased in its portions or augmented with eggs, breakfast meats or other suitable foods to fulfill part of the daily caloric aod .nutritional requirements* search; and (2) that the home port of agricultural research."

"It is interesting to compare the financial support of the extension service in Illinois with that in other states. Illinois hap ranked forty-first in the 48 states in its level of state support for the extension service." Referring to capital r budget items, the statement said: "The IAA believes that the most ur-? gent need of all is for the Home economics building.

STA-DRI comes in white and a variety of attractive modern colors at no extra cost, so its perfect for beautifying unsightly walls. Easy to fcpply and economical, it contains a mold and mildew inhibitor for additional protection. STA-DRI is time-tested. Years of use give it the background of fact necessary for successful application and lasting satisfaction. Only STA-DRI dares to advertise and support the claim that IT WILL HOLD A WALI. OF WATER NINE FEET HIGH WITHOUT LEAKAGE. Newcomers to the masonry waterproofing field claim "new" and "never before',' when advertising at lower standards when STA-DRI has exceeded these claims for years and has hundreds .of thousands of satisfied users to prove it.

IT'S" more tftan pride that makes a mart want a lot of horsepower beneath the hood of the car he owns. For the real point in reaching record 'horsepowers and compression ratios goes beyond miles per hour. It steps tip performance and economy in normal driving. That's what Buick engineers did when they upped the power and compression of each 1953 Buick-SPECIAL, SUPER and ROADMASTER -- to the highest figures in Buick's fifty-year history. ^ In the SUPER and ROADMASTER, they put a new kind of V8 Engine--first passenger* car V8 with 8.5 to 1 compression, and a long list of other major engineering advances. FOR the SPECIAL, they redesigned the Jfamed F-263 Fireball 8 Engine -- gave it shorter ft&fne travel, faster firing, higher horsepower and compression. ; And to these spirited engines they coupled the new Twin -Turbine Dynaflow Drive* that adds flash-fast, quiet getaway to utter smoothness. Just to give you an example of what all this means: The 1953 Buick SPECIAL with Dynaflow can beat the mighty 1952 ROADMASTER on getaway--can reach 30 mph (when the law allows) with a com• bined speed and jerk-free smoothness no other car can equal. Of course, there's far more to these new Buicks for 1953 -- some seven dozen new, features alone. But why not come in and see for yourself that these are the greatest Buicks--and the greatest values--in fifty great years. "7" •Standard on Roadmaster, optional at extra cut on other Stria.
