 A recent issue of . widely read wunaar's magazine devoted Q double page spread to recipes which elin- mated all fat in the cooking of many dishes. Although this sounds Like . magician's stunt, 1t is, accord ing to magazines in occupied Paris, q kl1ack that every woman can cas- fly acquire.
 It Is pointed out that vegetables with Q sugar content can be praised and potatoes "sauted" without fat, provided they are first parhoiled. Sweet or savory sauces can be made as palatable as always, housewives are told, if they just put the usual amount of flour in a saucepan and heat 1t until 1t starts to get brown, then mix in the hot liquid--vege- table water, or milk and water-in the usual way.
 Although most recipes come under such headings as With small spoonful of fat" or With no fat at al1," the chefs of once-famous Paxisians restaurants sometimes give recipes for "gala" dishes in which as much as . whole teaspoon of fat is used.
 Food columnists report that cooks are using cornstarch to replace milk or butter in soups: that carrots in- stead of sugar are used to sweeten cakes and pies; and that yeast is replacing eggs and butter in pastry.
 People are urged to produce their own sugar from beet roots, coffee from chicory roots, which are dried and then ground, and vegetable oil from the seeds of colZa, grain; to save strawberry leaves and almond shells for tea making; and to pick all the wild blackberrieS in reach for their valuable sugar content.

 Mrs. Rosen (South) let the king of hearts win the first trick. East had discarded a club and West wisely shifted from the heart suit, to avoid forcing East to make any more embarrassing discards. West led the three of diamonds, dummy ducked and East's queen was al- olwed to win. Dummy won dla- mond return with the king. Now Q low spade was led from dummy and Mrs. Rosen played the eight, let- ting West take the jack. West led the jack of diamonds and this time South won with the ace.
 Mrs. Rosen now laid down the ace of hearts and East was squeezed. East could not discard a spade without giving dummy an extra spade trick, and Q club dis card would have the same effect. A diamond discard would establish

 South had to make her contract. But East made the further mistake of letting Q spade 30. Now South cashed the spade king, the spade ace and the spade nine. On the nine East was squeezed again and had to discard a diamond in order to save the club stopper. So South led to the club king, cashed the dia- mond nine and won the two re- maining tricks in dummy. This gave her an overtrick and Q top score.

OF ORAN PAYS TRIBUTE

Greensboro. = "Some OF the
boys who came in there were
pretty messed up, but when the
medlcs got through with them,
you'd never know they were the
same fellows"
The speaker was Sgt. A. @.
Flowers, veteran Of the Oran
landing and for four months Il
truck driver across the African
wastes TO Tunis, who knows
what it means to be messed up"
He stopped machine gun slug

awaiting reassignment to new
duty. He Is attached to the 303rd
wing, an all-Negro training wing
here.
A member of the 2Sth quarter
master trucking battalion, Sgt.
Flowers Is an indlyidualist in the
variety Of ways. For one thing, he
owns to no first name-"Just call
me A. Co." he says. For another,
he doesn't flaunt ris stripes.
However, A. G. had plenty of
time on duty and thus to wear
his stripes in the last 26 months.
He celebrated his second year in
the service in August, having
reached England In April Of the
previous year. He trained there
with his unit until November,
when he boarded Il transport with
his 6 by 6 GAIC truck, headed for
Oran. After that it was Casa
blanca, back through Algeria to
Tunisia, and finally up to Tunis.
ms unit was vn the verge of
moving into Tunis itself when his
truck ran into a
machine gun nest and was shot
up. Sgt. Flowers had learned a
lot about the army up to that
time, but now he had chance
to see another side of 1t - the
care that men get when the for
tunes of war catch up with
them.
After treatment at base hospi-
tails In Africa, A. G. was shipped
to this country In May, first to
Halloran general hospital on
Staten island, and then to Valley
Forge hospital in Philadelphia.
He's had total of five opera
tions and each one has given him
a higher opinion of the medlcs.
AS far as he's concerned, they're
tops.
