SUNDAY DINNER
SUGGESTIONS


CHRISTMAS dinner is in most
minds this week and so naturally Sun
day dinner takes second place. Tur-
keys are likely to be at least as at
tractively priced as at Thanksgiving
and other holiday poultry usually fol-
lows in line.
Lamb and pork are both very reas-
enable and If smoked ham is prefer
red to poultry it will be available at
attractive retails.
Apples, oranges, tangerines, grape
fruit and bananas are plentiful and
inexpensive. Nuts, too, are cheaper
than often at this season.
Here are three menus for holiday
dinners adapted to different budget
levels.

Mashed Potatoes

Cranberry Sauce Curled Celery

With Christmas in the parade
With Santa Claus in the demand
And gifts in everyone's hand.
Some are disdain, some are opulent
But Christ receives the least
What we have when shopping is DER
We give with a reluctance and say

To ONE He is no more than a stranger
Let us give to the ones in need
With a smile this Christmas of deed.

 APPEAR IN N. Y. GAMES
O'Brien, Zaltz and Burke Proved World Record
 Challengers
Ny HENRY SUPER

(Umlted Press Stan Correspondent)
 New York, Fob. 24--(UP)-Mark down tho names of Eddie 0'Brlen, DiInitri ZAitE and Dave Burke As three young mon who probably will play Q big part for America in the summer olympic games ct Berlin.
 For in little more than . month of indoor track and field competition these athletes already have clinched tho honor of being the first finds" oS the pre-o olympic season.
 Of the three, 0'Brien, Q middle. distance ace from the University of Syracuse, has the most impressive record of the indoor season. An of- dinasy runner last year, blackshaired Eddie already has won four consecu- tive major races and cracked two world records.
 Great Work
 Ills greatest triumph, scored in Saturdays A. A. U. championships, was overshadowed by Gene VenSke's i,D00 meter victor yover Glenn Cun- ninghaTi. After VenSke had lowered the 1900 mark to 3:4o.e, O'Brien brought tho 600 meter record down foul. .tehths of c second to i:2i. The week previous, he created . 300. yard record in the New York A. O. meet.
 His coach, Tom Keane, already has said that O'Brien iS the next Olympic 400.naeter champion.
 1aitx, c shot-putter from Boston college, also has been around before but he, too only found himself this year. The beSpectacled 3. 0. junior, was was born !n Russia, has beaten Jack Torrance of Louisiana, indoor and outdoor world record holder, three straight times this year.
 once one of the widest shot puts terS ever seen, Zaitg suddenly hes blossoinod from c 46 foot man to almost . record breaker. His best effort Of the current season was c B2 foot, z I.2 inch heave which gave him his secord Yl"terV e"' '". rance in the N. Y. 4. 0. meet, Sat- urday night he fnaae it t.l.tS .a a row by winning the A. 4. U. cham. pionship his first major title.
 Going Strong
 Torrance's indoor mark is B3 feet, 1 i.2 inches, and ct the rate he's improving, Zeitg may better 1t in the remaining indoor meets.
 Of the three latest finds, Burke N the most remarkable. A freshman ct Marquette university, this dusky high jumper cracked tho world rec- ord Saturday in his first appearance on the New York boards. Along with Cornelius Johnson of Los An. geleS, the defending champion, Burke scared six feet8 lE.i0 inches, to better the mark of 6, 6 3.4 that Walter Marty of Fresno State set in February, 1e34..
 Burke then won the title by de- feating Johnson in Q jufnp-oR. Dave comes from Cleveland and jumped 0,e as c gchoolboy. Con Jennings, Marquette coach, worked on him in practice and Dave went ag high ag c, . before coming east for Q chance on the biz time.

lptaln and Anchor


 This week the honors of Captain and Anchor of the Scrub Team" goes to Fred Wooster, because he has won season membership on this team. We suppose that he will try and receive honorable mention on the All National High Five" next week.
 This week the Specialtles hit tho lowest score for their team this sea- son and by doing so lost three games to the Recorders. We won- der what happened to Johnson!!!
 The Contractors, in spite of the sideline cheering (razzing and boo ing) managed to break even with the Schedulers, both winning two points. Maybe the removal of the bleachers might help the Contrac- tors.
 We wonder if Bob King has to go through all the motions he does every week. Perhaps if he let up . little he might be able to use that hook a little better by conserving his energy.
 We had high hopes of having no one on the scrub team this week, but 1t was such surprise last week that there were only two on it that few of hte boys slipped this week.
 We wonder if Ed Standard is afraid to come around and bowl Monday nights after bowling over 300 one Sunday afternoon.
 We wonder what would happen if they removed that red colored head pin. Perhaps its too much col- or for the boys and they can't sec the rest of the pins!!l GAuaAa.u
