It kept another person alive for a year during a coma. When laced with a little alcohol, a single quart of the soup supplies 1,000 calories--and proteins, minerals, sugsr and salt Many patients take three quarts a day, and eat other things besides. You wouldn't want to drink it; M has a vile taste. It is fed, drops at s time, through a small tube going through the nose to the stomach The tube isn't irritating--and lets people eat and drink other things. fh« tube can be left in for days er weeks. Known at Prolac, the formula was developed by Dr-. John Elliott, of Jackson Memorisl hospital in Florida, and the Dade County (Fla.) Blood Bank, Inc.

Order JACKPOT The biggest quiz game in the nation is not b: oadcast or televised; but is played every minute of the day in the 44,170 passenger stations of American railroads. ^ Quix-kida . in this > unique pastime are the Qiousands of railroad information clerks who answered some .48,500,000 questions from American rail passengers in 1962 --or tried to. The grand total around the country in 1993 is .expected to be about 90,000,000 requests for information. Among the thirtyseven Eastern railroads alone, a minimum of 19 500,000 questions will be asked and answered in the next twelve months, the Eastern Railroad Presidents Conference predicts. In the early days of railroading, around the 1830's, some unsung and unhonored citizen must have asked the question which is still being asked in 1953. It goes 'Hike this: $• . *. "What time does tfee train leave (or arrive) ?" Trains of a pioneering railroad era ran on whimsical schedules. depending on the engineer's mood and the rate of equipment breakdowns. But the situation is different these days. Schedules are strictly followed. Railroads spend more than $1,- 000.000,06a to modernize equipta&t and $5,500,000 to print easy-to-read schedules. And the leading question, by a ratio of S to 1. still ii: "What time does the train leave (or arrive) ?" The enormity of the querennial demand for train information may be gauged by the /act that mere than 1,000 trains an hour leave their starting terminals across the country and the same number arrive. The average railroad information clerk answers about 600 questions a day or 180,000 during i worklnsr year. In large metropolitan centers like New York. Washington and Chicago, he is likely to be a linguist, speaking one or more of thr following languages and dialects thereof: French, Snanlsh. Italian, German. Jewish, Polish and Russian.
