 Laird smiled happily. Another barrier was falling.
 Down the flelo they marched. Pete was beginning to enjoy him- self. Mix 'em up, smash 'em down brutally bruising business. Sheridan was gaining confidence and moving behind him nicely.
 On the 3-yard line, disaster hit. On Q drive of tackle, Sheridan failed to protect the ball, was hit hard, fumbled and Notre Dame recovered.
 The kid was dejected. Forget it., Bill" called Laird. Games just starting"
 But Notre Dame stiffened. The Irish punted out of danger, spat on their hands and frightened up their defense. At half time neither team had scored.
 Late in the third quarter, the Irish began to move. States line was tiring and Notre Dame backs ripped of long gains into State territory.
 Pete's body ached, his lungs screamed for air, his lips were cut and a trickle of blood flowed from his nose. He had ben feeling tho brunt of the Irish attack from his intoxicating position. Time and again he dove into maze of inter- ference to spill Irish ball carriers. They were shooting his way on almost every play.
 The Irish wouldn't be stopped With sheer, indomitable power they moved to the one-yard line and pushed 1t across. Heroic Joey Anderson, a pillar of strength for State all day, blocked the at- tempted conversion.
 Into the fourth quarter they nattled, and with the minutes waning Pete knew 1t was time to strike If they were to win, In the huddle he whispered to Sheridan. "Bill, that end is slashing again. think we can run around him. Al rlght-move fast"

 Only two men could reach them and Pete saw them cutting across the field to position themselves. They're too close together" he thought. Maybe can knock 'em both"
 Pete charged low into the first defender and sent him sprawling backward toward his teammate, The second Irish back saw what was coming and tried desperately to get out of the way without los- ing position. But he couldn't do 1t He tripped heavily over Pete's head and neck and Sheridan raced Oy into the clear.

Redueer's
Foods
BY IDA JEAN KAN

THERE ARE no reducing
foods. Don't be misled into
thinking that you can eat some
thing special and get thin. You
can't!
Certain products are designed
expressly for the overweight.
They are so low in calories that
they may be included in the diet
with little danger OF exceeding
the calorie limit on which you
can reduce. They help 10 give
sense of fullness and that is
part of the normal satisfaction
OF hunger.

Wishful Thinking

When there is no information
as TO the exact number of cal
cries a food or beverage con-
tributes to the days menus, it
is just wishful thinking to mag
inc that il will reduce.
The whole question Of weight
hinges on the calories consumed
and a food is fattening or nom
fattening in direct ratio TO the
calories j. furnishes. The cal
orie is the only gauge.
Once l heard some one explain
that an apple is more fattening
than most foods containing 100
Galleries because of its sugar
content. One hundred Galleries
adds up to just 100 calories
always, whether in the form OF
an apple. a potato. two table,
spoons of sugar. a tablespoon OF
butter. or a bonbon. But because
they take up so much space. two
apples or two potatoes are al
most a meal whereas a couple
Of bonbons only make you want
more.
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1941-02-05
First OF All

The first thing you want to
know about a food is how many
Galleries il contains. and parallel
ing this, how many vitamins or
minerals II supplies. Don't be
impressed when the sponsors of.
say. a candy bar warn you that
the lack of minerals in your diet
may result in obesity, then as
sure YOU that the bar contains
more iron than a quart of
whole milk. five times as much
calcium as pound of spinach.
and 10 times as much phos-
phorus as a pound of butter.
They haven't told YOU any,
thing. Although milk is the
most nearly perfect food. it is
low in iron. Butter is a rich
source of Whitman A-not phos-
phorus. And all the calcium
supplied in spinach could be put
in your eye!
If you have any doubt as TO
whether a certain product is
valuable for its minerals and
vitamins or whether it will aid
in your weight loss. ask your
doctors opinion. Or. write TO
the company and request the
calorie content. 1t is a con-
sistent. low calorie diet that will
get your weight down.

Various Breeds

Among these are various
breads. Many of the Hollywood
stars favor a special loaf Of this
kind. II averages about 45 CAL
cries per slice-half as many as
slice of the average bread.
Other excellent space filters are
the crunchy. low calorie waters.
But the reducer's foods which
really serve their purpose are
labelled according TO the exact
number Of Galleries per slice,
wafer or serving so that these
may be accounted for in the
days calorie total.
When product processes 10
be reducing but fails to state
the number of calories il sup
plies, you may be sure il re-
duces by virtue of an accom-
panying low calorie diet.

MILK AND THE FARMER

Evidence recently submitted at
Federal-State hearing in New York
proves conclusively that the farmer
must receive higher price for milk.
What is true there, is true in many
other parts of the country.
In some instances, the going price
paid the farmer for milk is barely
enough to meet the cost of produc-
tion--to say nothing of paying him
a profit or return on the invest
ment involved. The farmers operat-
ing costs, in short, have gone up SO
rapidly that established price stan
dards are now completely made
quate.
Today labor is receiving the high
est pay in its history, and is con-
stantly demanding more. Farm labor
is at premium, and in many i'm
portant agricultural areas is virtual
ly unattainable. Under these condi-
lions, the farmer must be given a
better price for his produce--or go
bankrupt.

SOYBEAN HELMETS

Latest fashion note for men--in
defense and industrial work--a plas-
tic helmet made of heavy cotton
cloth treated with soybean mater
ial, to protect the head from such
hazards as falling boards, bricks, or
tools. These soy-and-cotton helmets
should prove valuable to mine work
ers and men on construction Jobs.
Also, in case of actual home de-
tense, they could replace metal he'll
NETS to save metals for military
uses. Many bombing-raid injuries in
Britain were caused by fall
ing glass. These new cotton-soybean
helmets are strong enough to de-
fleet blows up to forty pounds, which
is all the human neck can stand.
Joint work by the Soybean Pro-
ducts Laboratory of the U. s. De-
partment of Agriculture and the
cotton specialists of the Southern
Regional Research Laboratory of
the department resulted in the de-
velopment of the new plastic he'll
NETS. They are lighter than metal
helmets and, under large scale pro-
duction methods, could be put into
general use quickly and cheaply il
need arises.
