Plans for one of the largest card parties in the history of the city were outlined at meeting of St Patrick's Holy Name society at the Lyceum last night. Twenty eight 45 teams will compete for several prizes. This number is ex- ceedingly greater than that of a year ago when twenty teams par ticipated. In addition twelve or more pinochle teams will enter the competition. Several hundred wonl- en are expected. The event will be held Tuesday evening, Nov 27th.
 The annual Holy Name society party at St Patricks is held during the week of Thanksgiving each year and their success is an early anticipationn. In accordance with the usual procedure several tur- keys, chickens and ducks will be given away. Many door prizes will also be awarded and refreshments will be served.

YMCA Group First Op- pOnents - Exhibition
 Fails to Please

The simultaneous exhibition giv- en at the Waterbury Chess club by A. B. Barker was rather dis appointing from an attendance standpoint, but the games them selves were well worth while watching. Only seven opponents tried conclusions with the club champion, three of them succeed ing in winning their games. The results:
 N. R. Bellcome, won; A. Green, won; W. H. Warner, lost; E. Fi- nan, lost; P. Spada, lost; H. Cal kins, lost; A. P. Cough, won.
 Tomorrow afternoon at 2 o. clock the team of the Waterbury Chess club plays it's first match in the Connecticut Chess league, and has drawn for its opponent the Waterbury Y. M. c. A. Chess club. Waterbury's chess fans are due for a rare treat, because col. lectively these clubs can boast of as fine an aggregation of stars as there is in the staet in Cashman, Barker, Cornell, Bellome, Norling, Strong, DeBlasio and Sakalas. The match will be played at the rooms of the Waterbury Chess club, 100 Grand street.

Borough Continues
 Waterburian's Case
Frank COdianne, J May Present Evidence or File De-
 murrer on November 2I on Puzzling Charges

Tolles said he thought if a few quarts were taken along there could be no inference of such in tent but said in this opinion If five gallons were taken there might be reasonable inference of intent tc sell.
 He advised Atty Mcknight to enter a demurrer that a test case might be made in the court of common pleas in Waterbury. The defend ants counsel said his client had little money to make a test case of it However a continuance until Wednesday, Nov 21, was granted and at that time Atty Mcknight will either present evidence or file a demurrer.
 Judge Tolles did not believe the stories of Edward Skrobles, 54S High street and of Victor Wosilus of Al Spring street and fined them $25 and costs each. The costs in Victor's case were $11.26 and in Edwards case S8.26. They were ar- rested at 12:30 this morning by Officer Anthony Farrar after a fight on Spring street. Edward had a bruised nose and Victor an in- jured and swollen left eye.
 Victor claimed somebody hit him as he was leaving a tavern and Ed ward started to pick him up. He was in a daze, he said, and thought it was Edward who had hit him so he struck Edward twice. Ed ward admitted telling Farrar at first there was no fight and later saying there was. His story was identical with that of Victor. Judge Tolles in administering the fine said SPA was for lying and $1 for fighting.

Naugatuck, Nov 9-A question of whether carrying five gallons of alcol1ol in an auto carried the in- Ference of intent to sell came up In borough court today. The case of Frank Codianne, Jr, 24, of 1887 South Main street, Waterbury was 3fhe one concerned. He had been arrested Nov i and the case con- tined until today. The charge was Keeping liquor with intent to sell.
 The state recommended that in view of the fact that the law con- cerning transportation of liquor fhas been repealed, that the case be nolled. Judge Claremont Tolles uuestioned the statement that any one can now transport any amount with intent to sell. He thought it might come under the section, Excepting with intent to sell.
 Atty James Mcknight of Water- sbury was representing Codianne in ,court. He said he thought the law sallowed transportation of any Amount as long as there was no evidence of intent to sell. Judge

Dietitian Urges More Use Of Skim Milk
in 1868.

Dried skim milk contains practically all the
food values Of fresh skim milk, says DIR. Stanley.
and it can be used in many ways to supple
ment . too-scant food supply or to improve the
average diet It lacks OF course, the rat that
d in whole milk, but 1t contains everything
else except the water. It provides the calcium
and phosphorus which are among the chief
needs of children it is high in protein, and it Is
rich in vitamin @, which some authorities be-
Heve to be the factor that prevents pellagra.
At all events, nutrition studies show that people
who use paenty Of milk do not have pellagra.
Even two 10 four ounces of dry skim milk. in
troduced daily in the diet of a person who had
had pellagra, prevented the Temperance Of
the disease the following season.
One pound Of skim milk powder IS equivalent
In food value to AZ quarts Of fresh skim milk,
and can be used in the same manner if mixed
with water. When obtained at less than Is
cents q pound, dry skim milk provides fluid
skim milk at cents quart or less.
To relief workers, able to provide dry skim
milk at wholesale price, to extension workers.
and to families on short rations who could OBJ
tain it, the Bureau Of Home Economics has
throughout the depression recommended skim
milk powder as q means of safeguarding q re-
stricted diet It can be used in making corn
meal mush, oatmeal porridge, biscuit batter
cakes, and other breads, soups, gravies, chow
ders, rice pudding-in fact, for almost any
cookery purpose for which fluid milk Is used.
II it proves possible to market dry skim milk
in small quantities, the nutritionists are conf
dent that it would make possible a notable
improvement in low-cost diets.
Dairy specialists say that wide market for
the product would use up great quantities OF
surplus skim milk. the big by-product of the
bitter industry. - '''' ''

The large stone front building at 1921 K

ONE neglected foodstuff which does moi
Ohnd its way onto the pantry shelves of the
housewife. although used extensively COM
mercially is dried skim milk. The great draw
back has been the hack Of suitable container
which would permit the milk to be kept mois-
ture-proof and thus free from the Objectionable
caking which has initiated against its use on
q family scale in the past.
According to DR.. Louise Stanley, chief OF
the Bureau Of Home Economies Of the Depart
ment of Agriculture. suitable package has now
been found and thoroughly tested in the labo-
ratories of the Dairy Industry Bureau. DR..
Stanley strongly recommends the use Of dried
skim milk which contains all the food proper
ties Of whole milk excepting, Of course, the fat.
and which can be had at q very low cost IN
the powder form.
duplex Illuminated bag already on the mar
ket was found satisfactory to keep dried milk
in q limited number of experiments not a single
bag failed to protect the powder from moisture.
This bag consists of an outer bag of bond paper
and an inner bag made Of two layers Of glassfne,
with paraf1n between the layers. Bags Of this
type, filled with skim milk powder, have been
in storage under laboratory conditions for four
months and the contents have shown no signs
of caking.
In recommending dry skim milk as q valuable
food product, DR.. Stanley says it should be
possible to sell it at prices low enough so that it
could be used in any home. It is cheap now,
she says, when bought at wholesale, and is used
largely by commercial bakeries and ice cream
factories. It is q semi-perishable product, how
ever. and lack Of . suitable small low-cOst con-
tainer has kept the price too high for q univer-
sal retail market.
