VOLUNTEERS SAVE
 BIG APPLE CROP
Yale Students Among Small Arms of Salvage
 Workers Recruited

Storrs, Conn, Oct. 8ETWo- thirds of Connecticut's large crop of Mc- Intosh apples have been safely har- vested, and volunteer pickers who responded to appeals for help in the apple orchards are given credit for the accomplishment.
 Howard A. Rollins, extension fruit specialist of the University of Con- necticut, said today that only the cooperation of public spirited in- dividuals who plunged into an un- familiar task had averted a much more serious loss of fruit.
 For the past week there has been a lull in apple harvesting, but Bald wins are now being picked in the early orchards and the Baldwin harvest will be in full swing in a few days. Once more, said MT. Rol- linS, the growers will ask for help, and the Columbus day weekend, October 10 to 12, will provide an opportunity for many persons to help with another apple crop.
 With cooler weather, MT. Rollins cautioned pickers to wear warm clothing when they go out to the orchards, and clothing which can stand the rough work of climbing ladders among the apple branches. Those who go out for work in the morning should wear rubbers also, he suggested, because the long grass in the orchards is wet with dew for several hours in the morning.
 Examples of effective volunteer work in apple orchards have come from all around the state, Mir. Rol- lins said. Thirty Yale students gave up a week of vacation to work in the Mcintosh harvest. Wesleyan students have been acused from physical education classes and given full credits for work as pickers. Eighty mine faculty members and 79 students of the University of Con- necticut worked a total of 659 man hours and picked a total of 3,875 bushels of apples in September. Four insurance company executives. working in a Southington orchard, were described by the grower as the best pickers in his crew, although none of them had previous experi- ence. Fifty-two Southington High School seniors, excused from classes, picked between nine mad 10 thou sand bushels of apples in nearby orchards.
