Used regularly, RD-119 stops rust — helps you get trouble-free, economical oil heating comfort all winter long.

Paysinger Agent Sports Afield By TED KESTING Each year some new candidate for the “most vicious” animal in America is suggested—the semi wild hog of the South, the grizzly bear, the Russian boar. How ever, the average person’s chances of encountering them is remote unless he deliberately sets out to hunt them, in which case he is armed and presumably prepared. On the other hand, anyone mght run into what outdoor writer Bill Wolf considers the “most vicious” animal anywhere — the domestic bull. I think he’s right. Frankly, I’m scared of them, and know of no defense against them except to avoid them, or to turn tail and run. Here is the most vicious and dangerous animal in America, bar none, and anyone who hunts or fishes much is likely to come across one sooner or later. Only one course is open to you. Get out and get out fast. Take no one’s word for it that “the bull is harm less” and that it is OK for you to hunt through a field containing one. The cardinas rule is: Never trust a bull. Wolf tells of one day when hunting he walked an uneasy length of a field while two bulls obviously with murder in their hearts, tested the strength of a fence between him and them. The bulls, without any provocation, left the herd in another field when they saw Wolf, rushed over, pawed, snorted and butted at the wire its entire length. This is an excellent example of how bulls go out of their way to be ornery because, when Wolf first saw them, they were so far away he couldn’t tell whether they were bulls or steers. (Steers .sometimes turn ornery, too, but they don’t have the black fury of a fully sexed bull.) Bulls, by the way, are not irri tated by red any more than some other color because they are as color blind as most mammals. The movement of the toreador’s cape, and not the color, infuriates the fighting bull. So my advice to sportsmen is to learn, if possible, whether there are any bulls turned loose to pasture where you are going to fish or hunt. If that is impossible, treat any bull you meet with re spect and get out. Conversions Unless “platoon” football is re vived, major teams will gradually ease away from the policy of scheduling “breathers” with small er colleges. They stand to lose too much—gate receipts and na tional prestige when upset by teams not so well known ... As predicted, 1953 was a year of up sets. However, most of the nation’s powers took the conversion to the “one-platoon” game in stride and will do even better in 1954 ... As football makes its annual farewell with bowl activities, basketball takes the spotlight, for what vet eran observers believe will be a year of more and more new rec ords. They say offense is so far ahead of defense that most schools will need three-digit scoreboards . . . Early play in the Southeastern Conference bear out the fact. Cliff Hagan, In Kentucky’s return to the cage wars, set a conference rec ord with 51 points. Two days later Louisiana State’s Bob Petit broke Hagan’s record by dumping in 22 field goals and 16 free tos&es for 60 points as LSU toppled little Louisiana College 128-74 ... At Indiana, Branch McCraken said IU has plans for a fieldhouse seat ing 20.000 and could fill it easily if TV were taken away. \V LEADS PENSION FIGHT . . .

Start on these tips for some ideas: Stewed tomatoes can be prac tically epicurean when you add some crushed cereal flakes to them while heating along with one of the following seasonings: 3 table spoons minced onion, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce or 1 table spoon chili sauce.

Marinate in dressing for an hour. Toss in salad bowl with lettuce and additional dressing. Border bowl with al ternating slices of tomato,-onion and green pepper. spoon dry mustard. Spoon this sauce over the hamburgers. Try spiced fruit for dessert: cook one pound dried apricots as direct ed; 10 minutes before done, add % cup brown sugar, 5 whole cloves and 2" stick cinnamon. Cover; chill overnight. Serve with cream. This is the _ season for mulled drinks. Combine equal parts of apple cider and apricot whole fruit nectar; heat with a few allspice and cloves and serve at once. Use this as a topping for coffee cake before baking: combine Va cup honey, with an equal amount of sugar, butter and flour. Add % cup cut-up walnuts or roasted almonds. Try different seasonings for veg etables if you want them in the spotlight. French dressing does wonders for spinach and green beans, while powdered cloves are excellent with hot beets, and ginger goes with squash. FWoteL INTELELGRAM Check correct word. 1.
