GEORGIA SCHOOLS
GET APPLES FOR
LUNCHROOM USE
The State Department of Educa
tion was distributing 75 carloads of
apples to Georgia’s school children
this week. The apples, consigned to
the" Division of Surplus Commodi
ties by the Federal Government in
its distribution of surplus foodstuffs
for the lunchroom program, were
expected to reach the hands of some
six hundred thousand Georgia chil
dren, the report of Joe DeFoor, di
rector of the Division, to Dr. M. D.
Collins, State School Superintend
ent, said.
The apples were part of a pur
chase of surplus apples by the Fed
eral government in twenty-six
states.
Dr. Collins announced that al
ready more than 232,000 children in
Georgia schools have been certified
for the school lunch program, and
that the total is well ahead of the
same period last year.
Low cost, hot lunches for all
school children is the ultimate aim
of the program, which is supported
by local systems, but which receives
through the State Department of
Education an enormous total of food
from Federal agencies. During the
month of September the Division of
Surplus Commodities distributed
1,743,000 pounds of potatoes to the
schools of Georgia.
Director DeFoor reported that the
Georgia agency had requisitioned
orange juice, honey, pears, prunes,
cheese, dried eggs and canned toma
toes for immediate distribution.
Daylight bulbs for the electric
fixtures that supply light for the
home laundry center are recom
mended by home management
specialists. They explain that these
bulbs are made with a blue glass
which gives off white light like
natural daylight instead of the yel
lowish light given off by ordinary
bulbs. Daylight bulbs make it
easier to detect spots and stains
when laundering or ironing clothes.
It also saves scorching during iron
ing the first yellow tinge
of scorch shows up more clearly.

Fireworks Celebration
Disrupts Air Liners
HOOD RIVER, ORE.—A fire
works celebration by the “Crag
Rats”—a mountain-climbing or
ganization disruped airline
traffic near Mount Hood and
convinced one pilot he was see
ing anew form of “flying
saucers.”
Paul Thresh, a Northwest air
lines pilot flying west into Port
land, reported to the tower there
that he had seen a strange clust
er of red lights as he ap
proached Mount Hood area.
This caused him to turn his
plane to follow them, he said,
"but they ran away from me.”
Thresh’s report temporarily
halted several flights at the
Portland airport. The tower
thought at first that a plane
might be in distress and would
have to use the port for an
emergency landing. This caused
the tower to clear the field for
several minutes and passenger
flights were held up until it be
came apparent that no plane
was Involved and police solved
the mystery.
Strang* Beast Frightens
Conneetieut Villagers
EAST GRANBY, CONN. The
beast that has no name but which
is often heard here—what is it?
Uneasy residents in the Lake
Basile section of this town were
asking those questions after re
ports that there was a strange ani
mal in the neighborhood. The best
description given was that the
“whatever-it-was” gallops like a
horse and has the claws of a bear.
No one had seen it. Some had
heard it. But there for all to see
were its clawprints on the soft
dirt road.
Morgan J. Horne was among
those who reported hearing it—
at 10 minutes past midnight.
"It was nothing like I have ever
heard before,” he said. “My wife
had a horrified look on her face.”
The animal’s breathing, he re
ported, was "terrific, almost un
believable” and a lot heavier than
that of a horse.
“When we heard this galloping
aoise and the heavy breathing, our
English shepherd dog, Buddy,
went crazy,” said Horne. "He al
most went through the screen."
Sportsman Ronald I. Miller
opined:
"Must be either a bear or a
gorilla.”
He used to do a lot of hunting
when he lived in Maine.
If it’s a bear, said Miller, it’a
a big one—more than 8 feet tall.
