WOLGAST BATTLES
 GENAR0 TONIGHT
Claimants to FiyWeight Crown to
 Settle Argument in Ring

New York, Dec 9G (P, - Midget Wolgast, Philadelphia. will have
 precedent on his side when he steps
 out tonight in an attempt 10 clinch
 his claims 10 the nywcight cham
 plonship in fifteen round duel in
 Madison Square Garden with
 Frankie Genaro, once considered the greatest Of the little fellows.
 | Wolgast. by reason of his defeat Of all rivals in an elimination tour nament here last summer, is the New York stat" athletic commission
 nominee for the liz pound crown.
 Genaro, a stubby Italian veteran, is recognized almost everywhere cN- crpt in New York state and Penn sylvania by the National Boxing As sociation as the flyweight champion Of the world. Twice previously inter 5 commission rulers have met to de- eide q generally recognized cham pion and both times the New York state entry won the honors,
 Tony Canzoncri, now the light weight titlehold"r, once held foath- erweight recognition here while Benny Bass, Of Philadelphia. was named by the \. B A. as their champion. They met here and Can zoneri punched out a decision. Again MaXey Rosenbloom, local nominee for light heavyweight honors, found his claims disputed by Jimmy Stat 9 r TprrFE11a ,a 7r-ir 26 states controlled by the x. B. A. and once moro the New York com mission entry proved the better man when they met in Buffalo.
 Genaro, busy in foreign and Ca madam rings but idle here for the past three years because of his re- fusal to enter elimination tourna- ments to decide the flyweight cham pionship, is a far more experienced battler than young Wolgast. Over a period of ten years he has conquered some of the strongest of the little men and his record boasts a victory over the late Pancho Villa when the little Filipino was the sensation of the midgets.
 Wolgast has punched his way 10 the top in the last two years He whipped Black Bill, Cuban Negro, in the final of the tourney last sum- | mer and has conquered most Of the mediocre contemporary flyweight | crop. with the exception of Genaro. | Wolgast is busy little fellow. very | fast and clever, and strongest over ! the fifteen round title trail He is an 10 ; fayorlte.

Speaking of Sports

Either Steve Pierce or Harry Thompson will be seen in action with the Amsterdam Roller Hockey club tonight when that team meets the Meriden Greyhounds in the Ameri- can Roller Hockey league. This will be the first Friday night game in Meriden.
New Britain herald., 1930-12-26

Meriden went into third place in the league by defeating Amsterdam in an overtime game last night 8 to z. Bib" Boucher's shot after four minutes of play closed a thrilling chapter in the American Roller Hockey league play this season.

The importance of foul shooting was never better demonstrated than In the game between the Gascos and the Stanley Rule & Level Co. teams in the Industrial basketball league last Tuesday night. The Stanley Rule team won the game through it's ability to cage fouls. The Gascos scored nine field goals to eight for the Rulers but caged only two foul shots to six for the Rulers The two points by which the Rulers won, were contained in the foul shots.
 The same situation occurred in the game between the Russwin and Corbin Cabinet Lock Co. teams The Cabinet crew got 10 field goals to eight for the Russwins but scored only three free tries to II for the Russwins. The Russwins won the contest. Corbin Screw scored one more field goal and one more foul than the Newmatics in the game be- tween those two.
 Big Jim" Scully, former New Britain high school star, is one of the main cogs on the Niagara college quiet. So far this season he has averaged over ten points a game. SCully is playing at center.
New Britain herald., 1930-12-26

Despite Steve Pierce's announce ment that he would not return to the game of rollers, he has agreed to play with the Amsterdam contingent starting after the first of the year. Steve will try to join the Amsterdam team for tonight's contest in the Sil- yer City but there is nothing certain about his appearance.

BRAND NEW IDEAS
ON SERVING EGGS

Contrary to the general idea,
the outward appearance Of an egg
has nothing to do with its nutri-
tive value. The color Of the shell
varies with the breed Of hen and Is
of no consequence, even though
Eostonians will pay several cents
more for brown eggs and New
Yorkers will do the same for
white! The color Of the yolk and
the thickness of the shell are af-
fected by the hens food.
In the yolk of the egg We find
q liberal supply of minerals which
are essential to our health-cal-
cium, PHOSPHORUS, and jron-aS
well as three important vitaminS,
A, B and D. Only recently we
have learned that egg yolk ranks
next to codliver oil in the list Of
natural foods which help to pre-
vent ricketts,, the dreaded disease
of childhood. This is because egg
yolk is so rich in Vitamin D, the
Sunshine vitamin." In the white
Of the egg we find only two sub
stances, protein and water, but
the protein is of the best quality
to provide for growth and repair
of body cells. It is possible to sub
Stitute eggs for meat in a menu
for this reason; and you can see
that when they are substituted
many valuable elements other than
the protein are secured at the
same time.

DON'T MANGLE
GRAPEFRUIT,
PLEASE!

THE mangling a grapefruit
gets in a cheap restaurant is a
sin against noble vegetable" :"
according to an editorial in q
recent issue of the Atlanta jour
nal. The writer deplored the
fact that many persons do not
understand how to prepare the
fruit so that it may be easily
eaten and it's fine flavor fully
preserved and enjoyed.
A dietician, agreeing with his
diatribe on the desecration Of our
national eye-opener, offers the
following simple rules which, if
followed, will lead to. greater en-
joyment of the fruit:
If the fruit is desired cold it
should be chilled whole in the
refrigerator. Keep it whole in
the refrigerator over night. If
it is first halved and then kept
in the refrigerator to chill, much
of its fine flavor and aroma are
lost. Never cover the edible part
of the grapefruit with ice when
SCI Wig IL.
Do not halve the fruit until
Immediately before it is ready to
be eaten.
Scoop out seeds without cutting
into the membranes which sepa-
rate each section of fruit, or INTO
the white pulpy substance at the
center.
Never core a grapefruit. This
not only Spoils it's appearance,
but also its flavor.
Do not run a sharp knife be-
tween the meat and the outside
rind. Loosen the neat in each
segment without cutting into tine
white substance or the membrane
just enough so that it may easily
be Scooped out with a spoon.
j After a properly prepared grape
fruit is properly eaten complete
skeleton of the halved fruit will
remain.
Use sugar sparingly. Qnci-
dentally, many grapefruit con-
noisseurs use a dash of salt and
no sugar at alb.

PREPARINGF0R
THE WEEKEND
VISITOR

The weekend visiting - and
weekend visitor-season is with
us. Nearly everyone loves to
pack a suit case with pretty
dresses, bathing suits, golf clothes,
and lounging pajamas and go
gaily forth for two days free from
the responsibilities of meal plann-
ing and cooking. The state of
mind Of the visitor is a happy
one but the same is not always
true of the person to be visited.
She must have her house in
order; her marketing done so as
to be prepared for any emergency
(such as scrambled eggs at 3 a. m.
or a raid on the refrigerator at
midnight); have meals planned
which will allow for an hours
wait for the men who play the
nineteenth hole-or over-sleep-
or are deep in a bridge game.
1t is not easy to be the perfect
hostess to weekend guests!
The best soN,tion of the meal
The Washington times., 1930-06-17

problem is to reduce the usual
three meals to two a day, having
q late, substantial breakfast end
an evening meal timed to suit
the plans for after dinner.
II anyone must get up early
for golf or a ride, have fruit and
corn flakes where they are easily
accessible and coffee ready to
be cooked by the turn Of a
switch. Another suggestion is to
serve meals which need little or
no last-minute preparation and
which require only the simplest
service.
