Uncle Roy's Corner

During my boyhood, thought of
caterpillars as fuzzy little worms,
covered with hairs or something like
hairs. There are many caterpiliars
Of that kind, but since growing up
I have found that many other
wormlike animals are classed as
caterpillars.
The name Caterpillar" seems to
have grown out of old Latin words
meaning "cat hairs" Yet there
are scores of kinds of caterpillars
which have smooth skins with no
trace of hair.
Caterpillars have many colors.
They may be red, yellow, green,
brown or blue. Often they are q
mixture of these colors.
Some persons are afraid Of cater
pillars, especially when they are
long and smooth. There Is, how
ever. no good reason to be afraid of
them. Almost all Of them live en-
tirely on plant food. The few which
have other food than plants do not
bite people. Caterpillars may use
person as something to crawl over,
but that is another matter.
Caterpillars seldom attack any
other form Of animal life, but they,
themselves, are attacked by birds,
lizards and frogs. Since they are
slow-moving. they are rather easy
to capture.
Certain caterpillars escape death
because they know how to hide
themselves. Others have hair which
bothers any enemy which swallows
it. Still others have a bad smell.
The i'll smell may keep a cater
pillar from being attacked. There
also are oaterpillars with flesh"
which tastes very bad.
With all those helps, caterpilIars
have been able to keep their race
alive. A great number of them are
eaten, but many OF their, enemies
have learned to let them alone.
| Leaves, fruits and other parts Of
plants. suffer from caterpillars. They
damage crops and shade trees.
Butterflies and moths lay eggs,
and from the eggs come tiny cater
pillars. They soon crawl about and
start eating. When they grow too
big for their skins, they melt. In
other words, they shed their skins.
A caterpillar may molt four or five
times.

Today's hand was played at dupli-

opening bid was based on system
using the moderately weak no.

his partner won the trick, then re-
turned the suit. The club king now
dropped declarer's queen, and West
had two long clubs.
But fearful that to cash them
would squeeze his partner, West
shifted to heart, knowing from the
bidding that the play could scarcely
lose. Declarer won and led a dia-
mond from dummy, ducking 1t to
Vests ten whereupon West cashed
his two long clubs. The play to this
point made 1t apparent to East that
he could afford to discard diamonds.
which he proceeded to do as the
dummy let go hearts. Now the spade
shift developed two spade tricks,
and declarer was able to win only
his three aces and the heart king,

stroyed.

reached in the superior court civil
action of Frederick w. Peplow of

ment. Attorney William K. Lawlor

Area VINO Director Mary M.
Dewey and officials of the Boston
regional VINO Office will meet with
State VINO Director William j.
Fitzgerald to confer on the present
labor situation and discuss addi-
tional job controls that are pend
ing.
With hundreds of workers still re-
uuired by Naugatuck plants which
hold top ratings on the Waterbury
area priority list, it has been sug-
gested that some of the munitions
workers of New Haven be brought
to Naugatuck. It has been pointed
out New Haven is not a critical
shortage area, and that the 1000
workers to be released could not be
as easily absorbed in other vital
production in New Haven as they
could here.
Since majority of the New Ha-
ven workers to be affected by the
cut-back are women, it is believed
many referrals could be made to
the q. S. Rubber Company, which
is seeking large numbers of women
workers. It is believed, however,
that many of the women to be laid
off in New Haven will not seek new
employment and will remove them
selves from the labor market.
The new controls to be set up on
non-essential Establishments in the
Waterbury area and other sections
of the central Connecticut area also
are expected to be discussed at to-
DAVIS conference.
