FALCONS TO PLAY FIRST
 BASEBALL GAME TOMORROW

IL will be .he initial battle for both of the teams but despite this, II should be a battle of parts.
 Although the Falcons haven't as yet picked a definite lineup start ing team will probably be chosen from among the candidates who ap- pear this afternoon for the final practice session before the game. The squad of players who have al- ready put in bid for the various berths, gives the team an excellent array of talent to pick from and although several combinations will be tried tomorrow, it is expected that strong aggregation will bc molded 10 carry the Falcon colorS through the season.
 The Falcons should get away 70 good start against the strong Bristol combination with Nichols in the box and Mickey Noonan behind the bat. This is the same battery duo that brought the team several victories last season in the playoff for the city championship. Nichols is one of the leading twirlers in the MiddIesex league and halls from Easthampton. Noonan is the out standing catcher of this city.
 The West Ends of Bristol have firing line as good as any in thIs section with Brooks and McCue both available for pitching duty. These two boxmen held the brunt Of the seasons attack for the Bris- tol New Departures for several years and they are considered aces 3n high class baseball. Other New De- parture stars dot the visiting lineup including Zetarski. Scott and King.
 Judge Stanley Traceski will toss out the first ball and Alderman Pet CT Pajewski will De behind the bat This will open the season officially
 The game will start at o'clock.

Boys Stand on Head to
Honor Gift to Village

Leighton Buzzard, Eng.-This town
has a queer name but even queerer
is its manner Of expressing gratitude.
Figuratively speaking the town of
Leighton Buzzard stands on it's head
to say ''Thank You"
In the days Of Charles l, wealthy
London merchant, Edward Wilkes, left
several parcels Of land to Leighton
Buzzard, the income from which was
to be devoted to charity. He stipulated
in his will that the ceremony of "beat-
ing the bounds" in which the parish
officials go over the chief boundaries
tapping them with long willow stick
on Ascension day, should be concluded
with a public entertainment.
For years Leighton observed this
stipulation and then suddenly decided
it would be nice to honor the memory
Of Sir George by having boy stand
on his head on each parcel Of land
during the beating Of the bounds.
This has gone on for generations.
and each year, months before the
ceremony, there is strong competi-
ton among the boys Of the village
to be elected the official 'headstander."
While the parish official reads the
clause of the will dealing with each
parcel of land on which they are
standing, the boy remains in a feet-up
position on the parcel. This custom
has shown no signs of dying out.
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1929-07-12
Strawberry Jelly

Strawberries make good jam or pre-
serves, used whole, but the juice alone
will not 'jell" like many other fruit
Juices, because it is deficient in pectin.
There is way of remedying this diff
ficulty, if you are fond of the delicious
flavor of fresh Strawberries in every
form. Pectin may be added, the bu-
reau of home economics says. You
can extract the pectin yourself from
apples or citrus fruit, or you can buy
the commercial kind. If the berries
are especially lacking in acid, one tea
spoonful of lemon juice may be added
for each cup of strawberry juice just
before the jelly test is reached. The
lemon juice also helps to keep the
bright red color. Directions for max
ing the necessary pectin may be OBJ
tanned by writing to the United States
Department of Agriculture.
