Coffee drinkers In the United
States either are Increasing in
numbers or are quafiing more cups.
Import statistics made public by
the United States Chamber OF Com.
merce showed coffee imports to-
tailed 972.867,000 pounds In the first
six months of 1891.
That figure was Is per cent larg-
er than last year and % per cent
larger than last year and 2S per
cent above the average for the
1926.30 ueriod.
It Ii generally agreed that adver-
Using Is playing an important part
In stimulating the American appe-
tite for coffee. For example, dated
coffee has been introduced, that IL,
printed plainly on each can Is the
date Of delivery TO the grocer, so
the consumer knows exactly how
old It IL. Any cans remaining In
the store for ten days are replaced
by new packages. The same COM

pany has revealed that scientists
have discovered that coffee Is q
perishable food, Hike cream and
butter, and that Therefore freshness
Is greatly to be desired.
Almost Immediately there fol-
lowed O flood Of advertising by
every coffee producer, pointing out
the goodness and benefits OF freshly
roasted coffee. Coffee advertising
everywhere changed from a Discus
sion Of blends TO q hurried climbing
on the bandwagon of freshness.
Much has been written about the
advantages of different types Of
packaking to assure the purchase
OF coffee that Is freshly roasted.
The average housewife feels that
her safe guarantee Is never to use
coffee which has rested upon gro
GERS shelves more than ten days.
Another fact that has had Its In
fiuence upon coffee drinking Is the
recent discovery that freshly roast
ed coffee, when correctly made, act-
ually aids digestion.
Many scientists have made
studies which have revealed the
benefits from drinking fresh coffee.

The planning and preparation OF
the Easter dinner requires more
thought than other holiday meals,
because with every member OF the
family attending Easter service,
dinner must somehow look after
itself. Now what may seem like an
impossible job but 1t really isn't
for, with careful selection OF the
Easter feast meat and accompany1
ing vegetables, dinner may be pre-
pared, placed in the oven TO be safe
and sound until the family returns
from church.
Since the beginning Of the Chris
tian era ham has been the chosen
Easter meat, but the hams of yes

sweet mild fixed flavor OF Star
ham of today are as the first au-

pare them. The care in selection
Of only fine grained tender hams
and the rigid supervision OF the
curing and smoking make for al
most absolute uniformity OF sweet,
mild, delicate ham flavor. All this
IL made possible through the new

Just what reaction will greet the Yankee contracts, is a matter for conjecture. The contract terms are a state secret. Ed Barrow re- assured the press that nobody had been seriously hurt"
 Nothing was said about Babe Ruth's salary, but rumors had it that he will be given $60,00O, with a conditional clause appended per- mitting him to earn $80,00O, which amount was his salary for the past two years.
 o. K. By Them.
 Apparently Lou Gehrig and Lefty Gomez will be satisfied. We'll in- formed say Gehrig will receive at least $25,000, his salary for last year. Gomez, the ballant Castil- Han, is rumored to have bettered his contract by winning 21 games for the Yankees and finishing sec- ond to Bob Grove with an earned run average of 2.63.
 Not all of the men receiving Yankee contracts will be taken to St Petersburg for training. Many will be released to Newark, the New Yankee farm. and to other minor league teams.

 Jimmy Shevlin will promote the bout indoors.
 Reilly came to Chicago to sign Battalino to meet Earl Mastro, Chicago challenger, in a return bout, but Mastro turned down the offer. Battalino successfully de- tended his title against Mastro in the Chicago stadium November 4.
 Last week in New York Batta- limo failed to make the feather weight limit of 126 pounds and the New York state athletic commits sion withdrew recognition of Bat talino as champion. The National Boxing association, however, still Battalino as champion.

Clock Shop five remained undefeated after their tussle with Al Schott's Chase cagers last night at the central Y. winning the feature Dusty league game before a large crowd, 41 to 27. In the appetizer, Paddy Gal lulo's Farrel team was victim of Howie Kraft's Scovill crew, 25 to 12.
 Jack Grady was bapished in the first period with four violations which came as a result of push and push" act with "Yanor' Car roll who had three personals on him when Grady left the game. However, "Yanol'' was careful and finished the game without another personal. Grady's punishment hurt Chase for they had no capable sub ready for action.
 The Clock opened the game like @ bunch of shooters who never played on a basketball court be- fore. They took countless shots in the first period, but none went in, their only two marks coming from charity awards. Chase rolled up 10 to 2 lead here. The sec- ond period, found the green an improved club and they held Chase to a foul goal as they tucked away nine points to knot the score at Hall.

HACK WILSON IS STILL ATTRACTIVE
 TO BROOKLYN
Right-Handed Hitting Cen- ter Fielder Needed By Carey for Next Cam- paign
BY LEO H. PETERSEN

DI hGSo H. IT Fl E<hNSELsN United Press Stan Corrcspondcnt)
 New York, Jan 13-The Brook lyn Robins are still in the market for Lewis (Hack) Wilson, holdout outfielder of the St Louis Cardinals, and close baseball followers be- lieve the roly-poly playboy of the majors will be doing his chores at Ebbets' field this summer.
 President Frank York of the Robins has admitted trade negotia- tions with the Cardinals are still open. He said his latest proposal, which would sent Lefty Clark to St Louis in exchange for Wilson and Flint Rhem, apparently had failed to interest the Cardinal off, cials.
 It's a Secret
 York would neither confirm or deny reports that Dazzy Vance, speed ball hurler, may go to the Cardinals for Wilson and some oth- CT player. It is understood St Louis was more interested in Vance than in Clark because the dazzler is a better box-office pitcher. The Card inals, however, would be forced to pay approximately $5OOO a year more to Vance than they would to Clark.
 Max Carey, new Brooklyn man. ager, is in Clearwater, Fla, near the homes of both Vance and Clark. It Is understood Carey will confer with Vance on proposed cut in salary with Vance's reaction un- doubtedly having a bearing on his stay on the Brooklyn roster.
 Carey has announced he is after q right-handed hitter to play cen terfield. Last year with Babe Her man in right, Lefty O'Doul in left and Johnny Frederick in center, the Robins lacked the punch at the plate when opposed by southpaw pitchers.
 Portsidcr Wanted
 It Is understood Carey is willing to use Frederick in trade that would bring centerfelder who swings from the right side of the plate to Brooklyn. For time there was talk that Vance and Frederick might go to the Chicago Cubs for hlkl CuyleT, put CnlCdbO olHCldlS turned down all offers for their fleet outfielder.
 Clark, one of the hard-luck pitchers of the majors, is consid- cred one of the best southpaws in | the National league. He would pro- vide the Cardinal mound staff with | the proper balance and make the St Louis pitching department un- the strongest in the ma jors.
 Baseball fans here feel Brooklyn would be getting the short end of the deal should Clark be traded for Rhem and Wilson. They consid- cred that Wilson is at best long shot to come through although | Rhem, an in and outer, could be used to advantage on the Brooklyn staff.
