New Trans-Atlantic
Phone Cable in Use
Telephone calls placed by Geor
gians to European countries may go
via a new trans-Atlantic telephone
cable which is now in service, ac
cording to W. B. Smith, Southern
Bell manager here.
This is the first cable to link Eng
land directly to the United States.
It was a joint undertaking of the
long lines department of the Ameri
can Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany and the British Post Office,
which furnishes telephone service to
the United Kingdom.
The cable, which cost $47 million,
is the world’s longest extending 3,500
nautical miles from Tuckerton, N.
J., to Wodemouth Bay in Cornwall,
England. It can transmit 128 con
versations at the same time.
In addition to the United King
dom and Ireland, 12 countries in
Europe have circuits on the cable.
The telephone networks of these
countries are connected to the cable
through London.
NO REACTION TO STORAGE
Dr. Woodroof and Mr. Heaton said
that when nuts are properly re
moved from storage they suffer no
reaction to storage. That is, pecans
which have been in cold storage do
not become stale, rancid, moldy, or
otherwise degrade more rapidly than
they would have had they not been
stored under refrigeration.

WANTED BY THE FBI
EDWARD HOWARD MAPS
Edward Howard Maps, “beatnik,” firearms expert, college graduate,
artist and sculptor, who is charged with brutally slaying his wife and
four-month-old daughter, is one of the FBl’s “Ten Most Wanted
Fugitives.”
Firemen attempting to extinguish a blaze in Maps’ Stroudsburg,
Pennsylvania, home on January 21, 1962, found the infant dead of
smoke inhalation, and Maps’ young wife dying of a fractured skull
and cerebral hemorrhage. At least ten fires had been set in the home
and the gas oven was turned on.
Maps was missing but allegedly telephoned two neighbors shortly
after the crimes were discovered, threatening one with being “next.”
A Federal warrant charging Maps with unlawful interstate flight to
avoid prosecution for murder and arson was issued on January 23,
1962, at Scranton, Pennsylvania.
Generally known as an artist and sculptor, he is a nonconformist
who shuns ordinary footwear, going barefoot in the summer and wear
ing sandals without socks during the winter. A sloppy dresser'of
unkempt and untidy appearance, he was discharged from the Marine
Corps as a schizophrenic.
A white American, born on June 29, 1922, at Passaic, New Jersey,
Maps is 5' 8" tall, weighs 170 pounds, has a ruddy complexion, broad
shoulders, a barrel-chested build and is unusually strong. His eyes
are brown, he has bushy, curly graying-black hair and sometimes
wears a full beard and mustache.
Consider Maps armed and extremely dangerous. Please immedi
ately notify the nearest FBI office of any information concerning his
whereabouts.
Cold Storage Treatment Gives Pecan
Growers Chance for Better Prices
After one of the lightest harvests
in years in 1962, Georgia’s limb
breaking pecan crop is a welcome
sight to pecan growers in spite of an
abundance too heavy for'the trees to
bear. And although limb breakage
has caused considerable damage to
rees and the loss of many tons of
ruts, all surplus pecans harvested
this year can be saved until needed
—thanks to new knowledge from
research about proper storage of
these perishable and expensive nuts.
Only a few years ago a large part
of the pecans produced each season
were lost due to molding, rotting,
rancidity, discoloration, absorption
of foreign odors and flavors, or to
rodent and insect damage. Today,
pecans are just as perishable and
sensitive to improper storage as
ever but now, because of the find
ings of experimental research, pro
perly stored pecans can be held in
definitely with no loss in quality.
TASTY AS EVER
In the cold storage rooms in the
Food Processing building at the
Georgia Experiment Station at Ex
periment, pecans have been held for
four years at 0 degrees fahrenheit.
Examination of these nuts show not
a trace of rancidity, staleness or
molding. “They’re as tasty as ever,”
says Dr. J. G. Woodroof, chairman
of the food processing division of the
University of Georgia College o f
agriculture and head of the depart
ment at Experiment.
Dr. Woodroof and Mr. E. K. Hea
ton, associate food technologist, who
have conducted extensive pecan stor
age research, have themselves con
tributed many of the answers to the
problems of pecan storage.
They point out that warehousemen
generally have been quick to adopt
new storage methods based on re
search results and that this, plus re
cent expansion of proper storage fa
cilities, can assure the saving of the
1963 record crop of 90 million pounds.
This means that surplus nuts this
year can be held for light crop years
that are sure to come, as most pe
can varieties bear light and heavy
crops in alternate years. It also pro
vides for orderly marketing through
out the year and this tends to sta
bilize prices.
According to Dr. Woodroof and
Mr. Heaton, six years of research
show that the following procedures
should be followed in handling of the
1963 crop.
KEEP ONLY THE BEST
Grade pecans for removal of
light, faulty or poorly filled nuts. On
ly those that are well filled and of
excellent quality should be cold stor
ed. Hold others in dry, rodent-proof
houses until they can be cracked and
disposed of as auicklv as possible.
SHELL FOR STORAGE
Shell nuts to be stored as quickly
as possible. This reduces storage
space to less than half the amount
required for inshell nuts and reduces
storage cost proportionately.
Grade shelled nuts for removal of
any that are discolored, moldy, or
insect infested. Only best grade nuts
should be held for a year or more.
REMOVE MOISTURE
Dry pecan meats to 4 percent
moisture or less immediately after
shelling. This should be done with
circulated air at a temperature not
above 120 degrees fahrenheit.
After meats are dried, store at a
relative humidity of 65-70 percent.
This will prevent meats from ab
sorbing moisture or becoming ex
cessively dry and brittle.
Package shelled meats
Package pecan meats in rigid con
tainers so that meats will not be
come bruised or crushed from stac
king or handling of the containers.
Corrugated board cartons are satis
r-w«rv only lined u-ith mnich>re
proof and oil-impervious materials
such as polyetnyiene coating or oag-1
ging. Rectangular tin cans or fiber
barrels are excellent containers for
pecan meats.
Storage temperature must be se
lected according to the period of
storage—the longer the storage per
iod, the colder the temperature. Pe
can meats may be stored for six
months at 45-48 degrees, for one
year at 32-34 degrees, for two years
at 20-25 degrees and for four years
or longer at 0 degrees fahrenheit.
Nuts stored at 45 degrees or low
er should be removed to room tem
perature only on a fairly dry day
when the relative humidity outside
is 50 percent or lower. Nuts stored
at 32 degrees or lower should be
“tempered” in a room at about 45
degrees overnight before removal
to the outside. This will prevent ex
cessive moisture from condensing
on the nuts which may damage ei
ther the pecan meats or the package.

Each of us has cause to be thankful ... if we will stop
to count our blessings. True, some have burdens to bear,
.and to them a friendly hand is always comforting . . .
But most of us have our families . . . our health . . .
our friends . . . our right to worship and our right to voice
our opinions . . .
Our freedom to do for ourselves led to the organic
tion of our electric cooperative ... to meet an unfilled
need ... and we give thanks that we can enjoy the bene-
fits of abundant, low-cost electric power.
May your Thanksgiving Season hold many blessings.
