REDUCE SAFELY
Nutrition Expert Reports Dieting
Can Be Done Safely, Cheaply
You can reduce safely and eco
nomically on a diet that includes en
riched white bread at every meal.
Dr. Ruth M. Leverton, professor of
nutrition research at the Univer
sity of Nebraska, proved in a re
search project recently.
**Omitting bread in a reducing
diet is unnnecessary and leads to in
creased cost of the diet," Dr. Lever
ton said. "No aspect of food and
nutrition is subject to more abuse,
fad, and misinformation than the
low calorie diet necessary for weight
loss.”
Dr. Leverton explained that no
single food is fattening, but that it
is the total number of calories eaten
that determines whether a person
gains or loses weight.
The baking industry, led by the
American Bakers Association, is
planning a nationwide observance,
in 1951, of the tenth anniversary of
bread enrichment, focusing atten
tion on the resulting improvement
in the nation's health. Bread "en
richment" means the addition to the
bread of certain essential vitamins
and minerals.

r DY HOLLIDAY was a terrific
success on the New York stage
in "Born Yesterday," but Columbia
tested some of Hollywood’s top ac
tresses before giving her that same
role in the screen version of the
comedy. No one else could have
played it as well. Judy’s show busi
ness career began as switchboard
JUDY HOLLIDAY
operator for Orson Welles’ Mer
cury Theatre, then came a stint
with, a group that sang satirical
songs. A small role in "Kiss Them
for Me" won her the Clarence Der-
went award. Then came "Born Yes
terday," her third picture and big
gest success.
Spencer Tracy is delighted
with Ms role in "Plymouth Ad
venture,” that of captain of the
Mayflower. The picture will ex
plode the popular belief that all
its passengers were a dun lot;
some were Pilgrims, some Pur
itans.
Helen Deutsch, author of so many
successful pictures (her latest is
"King Solomon’s Mines"), has
proved to MGM executives that she
knows what will succeed on the
screen; of 30 scripts she turned
down, only one was made, and it
shouldn’t have been. She is thrilled
over her next, “Plymouth Adven
ture," with Spencer Tracy star
ring. Blonde and brown-eyed, pret
ty enough to be a movie star her
self, Miss Deutsch likes to do his
torical pictures, insisting that every
detail be absolutely correct.
This appetizing, low-calorie
dinner featuring a pork chop,
browned apple rings, enriched
white bread and butter, and
fresh strawberries, was one of
the meals served to dieters in a
scientific study. Twelve girls
lost a total of 227 pounds in 8
weeks of the diet.
In the scientific study at the Uni
versity of Nebraska, 12 overweight
young women followed a daily 1200-
calorie diet, which included en
riched white bread and butter at
each meal. The 12 girls who took
j part in the study were between 18
and 25 years of age, and were from
20 to 83 pounds overweight. At the
end of the eight weeks, the girls
lost a total of 227 pounds, or the
equivalent of two whole girls. Aver
age loss was 21& pounds per girl
per week. The girls remained in
excellent health.
Enriched white breaji was selected
for each meal because it is nutriti
ous, appetizing, low in cost, and
readily available, according to the
report Cost of the diet averaged
68 cents a day. It regularly included
meat milk, fruits and vegetables,
as well as bread. An important
share of the B-vitamins, iron, and
protein was provided daily by en
riched white bread.
• • •
IN SELECTING the diet meals
for three days were planned, and
this three-day pattern was repeated
throughout the study. Foods were
chosen that were liked by the girls
and would be popular over an 8-
week period. In general, thick
gravies and sauces, concentrated
sweets and calorie-packed desserts
were omitted.
The girls lived in one of the Uni
versity’s residence balls during the
study so that their meals could be
prepared, weighed, and served by
trained nutritionists.
Because the only way to take off
weight is to reduce food intake,
foods included in a reducing diet
must supply all of the essentia]
nutrients needed by the body. The
diet planned in the study supplied
the food values recommended by
the national research council, with
the exception of calories.
Here are the menus for one of the
days of the planned low-cost diet:
BREAKFAST: % cup of grape
fruit or orange juice, 1 slice of en
riched white bread, % teaspoon of
butter or margarine, 1 medium egg
cooked in the shell or poached, and
1 cup of skim milk.
LUNCH: 2 slices of enriched
bread, % teaspoon of butter or
margarine, 1 medium carrot, 1
medium orange, and 1 cup of skim
milk.
DINNER: 1 pork chop (V4 lb.
with fat removed), 1 small apple, 1
cup of raw vegetable salad, 1 slice
of enriched white bread, Vi teaspoon
of butter or margarine, 1 cup of
skim milk, and cup of fresh
strawberries. In place of strawber
ries. the following may be served:
1 medium fresh pear or peach, %
medium cantaloupe, 2 ounces of an
gel food cake, 1 piece of canned
fruit such as pear, peach, or pine
apple slice, but no qweetened juice.

A
Middle-aged hunters, who warm
desk chairs for some 11 months of
the year are warned by medical au
thorities to "take it easy" when
they spend that other month in pur
suit of game or fish. Too many in
this category of sportsmen wind up
each year as woundless "casual
ties."
The sportsman may have been a
fleet back or have seen plenty of
wartime combat, but if he is over
the physical meridian, his best bet
is to refrain from pushing himself
at any stage of his outing. Extra
exertion after a long period of physi
cal inactivity can place a danger
ous emd too-often fatal strain on his
heart. It has been estimated that up
to 40 per cent of hunting fatalities
are due to heart failure.
Too, the admonition to "take it
easy," is nothing more than plain,
common sense. A man who spends
48 or 50 weeks in the year behind
a desk is in no physical shape to
walk 10 or 15 miles a day over rough
terrain, lugging a rifle or, possibly,
a take of heavy game. Neither is he
in shape to wade five or six miles
of boulder-strewn stream.
As for hunters, there are several
recorded instances where the sheer
excitement of flushing game has
proved too much for an over*
strained heart.

THE
FICTION
CORNER
WAIT YOUR TURN
By Ona Freeman Lathrop
Indoors-Oufdoors
B ESS WILKINS wondered if she
was going to be able to stand
another twenty or thirty years of
Henry’s s t u b-
bomness and
impatience I
"I declare,
your father is
getting so cranky
in his old age,
I wonder if I’m going to be able to
live out my life with him," she told
her married daughter, Alice.
"Why, Mother, how you talk!”
Alice looked shocked.
"Well, he actually embarrasses
me in restaurants and public places
if we aren’t the first to be waited
on. And today he wouldn’t even
bank his money from that last real
estate deal just because there was
a line ahead of him."
"Just don’t pay any attention to
him," Alice advised . "You proba
bly aggravate him more when you
argue with him. Maybe he isn’t
well?"
"There’s nothing the matter with
him that a good hard jolt wouldn’t
cure, and I’m going to think up a
way to jolt him out of his cussed
ness,-4? Bess announced.
But she hadn’t yet thought up
the jolt when she and Henry were
driving out for groceries that eve
ning.
"Got to have some gas in the car
before we can go to town," Henry
announced, a scowl cluttering up his
once-so-placid face.
"Henry, I’ll need some money,"
she informed him as they drove
along.
"Well, here, take my wallet and
get out a ten-spot."
Silently she counted the bills. No
sense in Henry carrying that much
money on him. She helped herself
and replaced the wallet.
Henry pulled into the neigh
borhood gas-station. No one
came out. He honked the horn.
BROADWAY AND MAIN STREET
Widow Curses Legacy That Kills Faith ol a Lifetime
By BILLY ROSE
Whenever an out-of-towner says, "What have you got in New
York that we haven’t got in Punxsutawney?” I throw a copy of the
Manhattan Classified Phone Directory at him. On page 1067, listed
under "Missing Heirs,” is a man named Theodore W. Roth whose
business it is to find money.
1 first heard of this gent on ^rradio program and this morning,
in a mood to muse and meander, I stopped in to see him at his office
an West 4End Street.
"Glad to see you," said Mr. Roth.
"You don’t happen to be related to
a Sam Bramson of Paterson, do
you?"
"Not that I know of," I said.
"Too bad," said Mr. Roth. "Bram
son left a hundred thousand dollars
and I’m trying to
find a relative I
can give it to."
"la there much
unclaimed money
lying around?"
"About eight bil
lion dollars," said
Mr. Roth, "mostly
in forgotten bank
accounts, stock
held in escrow, un- Billy
collected insurance policies and in
heritances nobody has claimed."
• • •
"WHAT’S THE biggest case you
ever worked on?" I asked.
"The Garrett case in Philadel
phia," said Mr. Roth. "Back in 1930
a lady named Henrietta Edwina
died and left property worth
million dollars. So far over six
people hqve claimed it.
six of them have been thrown into
jail, a couple have committed sui
cide, and several lawyers have been
disbarred for phonying up evidence.
One of the applicants was Adolph
Hitler who argued that the next of
kin was a German citizen and that
the money should be sent to the
Fatherland. I’m happy to report he
didn’t get a dime."
"You must meet a lot of screw
balls in your profession," I said.
Mr. Roth dug into bis desk and
brought out a letter. It was from
a woman m Massachusetts who
claimed that one of her ances
tors bad deeded a cranberry bog
to an Indian squaw, but that the
deed was faulty and she wanted
the property back. The bog, she
explained, is now known as Man
hattan Island.
"Last year,” Mr. Roth went on,
*T got one that was even wackier.
A girl in Texas wrote in to say that
only a second cousin stood between
her and a chunk of oil land worth
a million dollars. She was planning
to murder her kinsman, but before
going to all that trouble she wanted
me to check and make sure her
claim to the estate would be clear
and undisputed. I, of course, turned
the letter over to the police."
• • •
DO YOU HAVE any trouble col
lecting your fees?" I asked.
"As a rule," said the climber of
family trees, "the heirs I turn up
are pretty grateful. There have been
case% of course, where the only
thanks I got was a dirty look."
“As for instance?”
"Well,” said Mr. Roth, M tbere
was the time a widow refused to
believe me when l told her l bad
located a twelve-thousand-dollar
bank account left by her husband.
I finally convinced her to sign the
necessary papers, but when I
banded her the twelve thousand,
she said, 7 curse the day I ever
met you and I curse this money
too’
"It turned out she had always
loved her husband and was devoted
to Iiis memory, despite the fact that
their life together had been a hard
one. He had always pleaded pover
ty when she needed a dress or a
new pair of stockings, and she had
believed him. Now that she saw him
for what he was, s^e was under
standably bitter.
“Sure, twelve thousand dollars
was a lot of money, but it had de
stroyed the faith of a lifetime."
Alice advised her mother not
to pay any attention to him.
"Maybe he isn’t well," she sug
gested.
Then he honked again, not once
but twice, and then again—a
long blast. Bess couldn’t contain
herself any longer, much as she
had determined not to argue
with him.
"Now Henry, don’t be so impa
tient," she said meekly.
"Well, for the love ol Mike! When
a man wants service, he wants it
quick." He gave the horn another
fierce blast.
"But Henry, you know that horn
sticks sometimes. You’ll have it
sticking if you blow it like that."
"Then they can fix it." And he
tooted it again. No one came out.
"By the Lord Harry, I’m going
in there and tell them what I think
of them," he shouted, getting out.
"I can see some one in there mov
ing around."
B ESS WATCHED. Yes, she could
see a form moving in the dim
interior. Funny the lights hadn’t
been turned on yet. She saw Henry
step inside and close the door be
hind him. Then she saw something
that made her heart skip a beat.
His hand went up high above his
head. A stick-up!
There ought to be some way!
After all, she couldn’t have any
thing happen to Henry. She leaned
over and pushed the horn—clear
down. It stuck as she had hoped
it would.
The station door flew open. The
masked bandit stuck his head out.
"Shut that off, sister!" he snarled.
"I can’t. It’s stuck," she told him,
trying to keep her voice from
squeaking in high soprano.
"Get that crate out of here then,"
he snarled.
"I don’t know how to drive,
and besides, my husband has
the keys in his pocket." She
could see heads sticking out of
doors and people stopping to
turn and grin at the corner.
"Come on, Eddie, we’ve got to
scram out of here," the first one
croaked, and they came out on the
run to a parked car. By that time
a police car - was rounding the
corner.
Henry and the gas-station attend
ant came out sheepishly to discon
nect the horn and fix it.
"You sure saved our skins,
Bess," Henry murmured in a sub
dued voice. "But my bank-roU is
gone. After this—”
Bess smiled. "Oh, I had taken
all the money out of your wallet
except nine dollars, but I think that
will teach you not to be so impa
tient anyway, Henry. Next time,
wait your turn.’’
It’s Curtain Time
Just as the shoemaker’s children
never are shod, so shower curtains
seldom get bathed.
The Parti-Chef grill, shown
above, now permits sportsmen
to enjoy the thrills of open-fire
cooking right in their own
homes, and all the year-’round,
too. The grid swings in over the
fire for grilling and out over the
magnesium griddle for remov
ing or turning foods. It is easily
cleaned after use. One can grill,
fry, roast, broil and even bake
on this important addition to
sportsmen’s gear.

Nature In The Raw...
An example of what state con
servation departments meap when
they say to leave young wildlife
alone is offered by a recent release
of the United Press, the Wildlife
Management Institute reports.
According to this report, Mr. and
Mrs. Seaton Barker, owners of a
health resort near Colusa, Califor
nia, adopted a fawn four years ago
and raised it on a bottle. All the
children in the neighborhood made a
pet of "Bambi,” as the deer was
called, and they delighted in posing
for their pictures with their arms
around the sleek neck of the now
full-grown buck. Bambi was their
playmate until a few weeks ago
when a sudden change took place
in his personality.
A few days ago, the deer was
seen with blood on his antlers, and
one Nick Miskulin was found dead
near his car, his body trampled
and torn by hooves and antlers. A
posse shot the buck as it tried to
break into an automobile in an at
tempt to reach two screaming wom
en who had barely reached safety
ahead of him.
What might have happened if this
Instinctive, seasonal aggressiveness
had overtaken the deer at one of the
children’s photography parties is not
pleasant to contemplate.
Leave young wildlife where you
find it!
Watch That Line!
Fly fishing lines should not be left
on reels over the winter season, be
cause they will take on troublesome
"kinks."
Instead, they should be loosely
coiled in a newspaper, or hung
loosely on a wide peg to avoid these
kinks.
Silk and nylon lines need no dress
ing and should only be completely
cleaned and dried before storing.
All angling equipment, including
the rod and reel should be stored
in a place with dry atmosphere and
covered with cloth or paper. Avoid
leaving tackle near bricks or metal
that collects moisture.
AAA
Fly Technique
A deep-fished fly is usually out of
the angler’s sight, so he recognizes
a strike by a slight pluck on the line,
or he sees a momentary pause in
the motion o the line at the point
where it enters the water. In either
case, a quick reaction is a "must,"
else the fish will be gone long be
fore a slow angler takes up the
slack. A fly fished on or just be
neath the surface remains in plain
sight of the angler, who is thus abla
to see the beginning of a strike.
