 Eggs are plentiful. They are first rate protein. Even so, they can become monotonous unless used in different and delicious ways. Here are two good sugges- tions.
 Apple Pancakes
 (6 to 8 pancakes)
 Two eggs, well beaten, 1-2 tea spoon salt, cup water, 3-4 cup sifted flour, medium sized apples, pared and thinly sliced.
 Combine well-beaten eggs with salt and water. Add flour, beat until smooth and add apples. Pour enough of the mixture to make a thin layer in a well-greased or 7-inch frying pan. Shake over me- dium heat until lightly brown on bottom. Remove to broiler rack and repeat process until mixture is used. Sprinkle pancakes with sugar, light broiler and cook until edges are lightly Drowned. Remove from broiler, roll, place on platter and sprinkle with sugar. These are equally good for Sunday breakfast, Sunday supper or for luncheon dessert

dren benefited, and both the youngsters and their parents were well pleased with the results. PROPER SUPERVISION
 The $500 covered the cost of all equipment that was necessary. Vol unteer workers helped two instruc- tors o give the camp proper super vision. Outdoor, body building ex- ercise aided the health of the chill dren. And study course included manual and decorative arts, cooking and story telling. The Red Cross gave swimming lessons. The best part of the story is that both parents and children were able to get a seven-week vacation" at an average cost of only s child.
 Here's a constructive solution to the problem of keeping children safe during the school vacation, as well as keeping little minds and bodies busily occupied while their parents are free from worry.
 The time to start work on sum- mer day camp in your community is now.

WacRecROOno Opens on
 Sad Note

All thoughts of party rrolicking, dancing and other hilarities were put aside Thursday night due to the Presidents death as the WAC Recreation Club opened it's door for the first time. More than 200 members and guests filed into the renovated mess hall to emit their expressions of "ohs" and "ahs" at the splendid transformation. A short address was given by It. Col Angus MacLaeon, who spoke on behalf of Colonel Johnson. At the termination of the talk, the key to the Club was presented to the president, Sgt. Katherine Bone. The opening was the elimination of several months untiring efforts on the part of many volunteers on this Base. The furniture, donated by the Bridgeport Chapter of the Red Cross, was selected with an eye to beauty and practicability, and it's muted colors blended beau tifully with the gray-blue corded walls, white ceilings and floral motif draperies. The floral pieces were arranged artistically by Mrs. Spaulding of Sufield. One of the most popular spots at the Club was the grouping of furniture around the fireplace. The refreshments, which were served buffet style and were as artistic to the eye as they were pleasing to the palate, were credit to the stewardess, Cpl. Bernice Blumberg.
 The Clubs officers are: Sgt. Katherine Bone, President, Sgt. Esther Beach, VicePresident, Sgt. Mary Pantelis, Secretary, and S/Sgt. Anne Olivier, Treasurer.

 Seriously, grass that is tram pied on or driven over will not thrive. Lack of grass means dust and dust means parched threats, irritated eyes and, what's a lot more important damage to vehi- cles and aircraft.

pital, I immediately rushed to the cleaners, claimed my clothes and headed for my barracks. Then came the shock, as I slipped into my lovely suntans - they were miles too large! Had I gotten the wrong ones back? No, I had lost weight during my sickness. Thus started a series of events which even the thought of still causes me to tremble violently. I gave my clothes into exchange, but by the time they came back I had gained back my lost weight. They again went into salvage, but this time l lost weight worrying about them. And so it continued throughout the Summer. At last, on the day we were scheduled to return to ops, I finally got the correct size.

Vet Who Got No. Business Loan
 TellsiSerVicemen How It's Done

Arlington, Va. (ACS)-The first ex-serviceman to secure business loan under the GI Bill is a 26- year-old veteran who is starting a meat distribution business.
 He's Jack c. Breeden, who re- ceived medical discharge last December after three years of service, during which he collected four campaign stars for action in the Pacific.
 Interviewed for Army news papers, Breeden gave a first hand account of how an ex-GI goes about borrowing the money to set up shop. He went to work on the loan immediately upon discharge.
 But it really began before that" explains the young business man. "I started by saving money while in the service. It helped me to get started and it naturally came in handy while I was tread ing water waiting for the loan to go through. If you want to know, I used to bank $40 a month be- sides carrying an allotment and full insurance"
 Outlining the procedure for ob taining a GI loan, Breeden pointed out that as far as the banks and the government are concerned, the considerations are the same as those involved in any commercial loan.
 First" he said, "the bank dis cusses the proposition with you and you want to have the whole thing planned so you can lay it before them. Then, after sending for your certificate of eligibility, they give you form to fill out. On this you state your estimated vol ume of business, income taxes and operating expenses for the coming year. You also estimate salaries to be deducted and what per cent can be classed as profit. ..--- .......
 "The bank checks this and sends it to the REC, which examines it thoroughly to see if it's sound. It then goes to the Veterans Ad- ministration for final approval and 5O% guarantee of the loan.
 Experience also has lot to do with the application. In my case l teamed up with a partner-an old friend who's been in the meat busi- ness all his life, and he also put up stock money"
 "The thing the guys ought to realize" says Breeden, lis that this is serious business. You can't just walk down the street, pick out a business you like and then tell a

FINANCE FLASHES
By S/Sgt. Jack s. Batten

Snoody Moody's orders for I'D at Pago-Pago finally arrived with eighteen years delay en route. No Chevrolets, volley balls or all-day suckers may be carried as excess baggage. Incidentally, we shall miss him on our volley-ball team as he is the next best player to Charlie Flash" Holmes, who is a star of all games.
 Jean "You Know Who I Mean" may be seen carrying .45 cal. pistol. Pistol Packing Mama says it comes in handy, especially on dates.
 Y Kenneth Green just arrived from Hillsgrove for duty at Bradley and has been looking for the regulation stretcher ever since.
 Thanks to the BEAM Editors for the picture of Dale Belmont which appeared alongside the Finance column last week. Her sweater was admired by all and it was noted that she filled it out a little better than "Nails" in his new Red Cross sweater.
 Pete Gayeski just returned from furlough and said that his wife had been receiving the BEAM regularly even in his absence from the Base.
 Leila Bessom is planning re- union of her old Sunday school class soon and desires that all brothers and sisters attend. Gene Rosenfeld may be seen in the barracks nearly every night now. He says you shouldn't send a boy out on mans job but seems to prefer sticking close to home.
 Bob Rohrbaugh has been trying to sell a basinette but since he heard about the possibility of a Baby Bonus being passed, he has been rather reluctant to sell. Bob says that he thinks he will give up volleyball and take up reading as a hobby. As a matter of fact, he has already started on Hotel Der lin" and is enjoying it very much.
 Congratulations to Cpl. Burt Briggs for his winning plays in our volley-ball games at the gym. He is very modest about his skill and manages to strike the ball with the greatest of ease.
 Mystery of the week. Why did T/Sgt. Russell leave his friends the other night at the NCO club? It could be that he doesn't like the taste of beer.
 P.S.-Flash! We are all pleased to hear, Sgt. Batten, that you and Sgt. Evans are working on joint VICTORY GARDEN at the Proj- ect. What are you boys going to raise Southern Fried Black Eyed Peas, Stewed Tomatoes or Potted Plants. Best wishes to both of you in your new field and please, boys, don't work too late at night be- cause you might keep your good neighbors awake.
 Your gal Saturday.

CoRNPONE, SOW BELLY AND
TURNIP GREENS

Something more than hint has come
down to south Florida from Tallahassee
that the deadlock in the senate may afford
a fresh impetus to the division of the state
into North and South Florida.
Should that come to pass, it will be the
only justification for the insistence of the
% senators from north Florida in opposing
the requirements of the constitution in the
matter of reapportionment.
The outlooks of the people in. north
and south Florida are altogether different.
In the north the slow-going inhabitants,
with exceptions, of course, are content to
go along as grandfather used to go, where
as in south Florida the residents, with ex-
ceptons again, are up-and-doing and en-
| terprising.
However, we should not go too far in
making the comparisons, as some of them
may be odious, as, for instance, that north
Florida is the land of cornpone, sow belly
and turnip green's, yet, putting aside all such
talk, it would be blasting if south Florida
attained the entity of statehood.
The Crackers, in the porthern part of
the state, seldom let a chance pass to "rub
it, into the residents of the southerly part.
With the whiphand in the senate, the %
senators from the north, representing only
two-fifths of the states population, seem
to be determined to hold on to their ma
jority, regardless of their actions conflict
ing with provisions in the constitution. What
matters it to them that only Is senators
represent three-fifths of the population
that pays "a percent of the states taxes?
Are the north Florida senators con-
cerned in fairness and justice? Do they be-
lieve conscientiously that their constitu-
ency, comprising two-fifths of the popula-
ton, should have seven more senators than
the people in the south with three-fifths of
the population?
If they don't believe that, they should
insist in giving the people of the south
what is really theirs.
If they do believe it, then their philoso-
ply smacks of cornpone, sow belly and tur-
nip greens.

WARMING UP

After a long truce imposed by war;
politics In Europe is warming up with
speed that indicates there is no lessening in
party fealty during the years when Mars
took over. An intensive campaign is shap-
ing up In England for the election in July,
when the administration of Prime Minister
Churchill will be the issue. Representatives
Of both the Conservative and Labor parties
have jumped into the contest with whoop,
forecasting a campaign which will be lively
and acrimonious to the end.
Churchill launched the campaign for
the Conservatives in a speech which all but
took the opposition apart. He paid his re-
speets To socialism, an theology to which
the Labor crowd subseribes. He reminded
bis listeners the war against Japan has not
vet been won, and declared England has
no task that Is more important than to help
20 defeat the last remaining members of
the axis.
The Labor crowd in England is as luke
warm % the war against Japan as are the
Communists in the United States, or as
were the Communists in France early in the
war when Stain had pact with Hitler.
The Labor press is vehement in de-
nOuncing the Conservatives, which it sees
verring away from wartime controls. The
real contest will be between the Labor and
Conservative parties. which have a major
share Of voting strength. There is a note
of desperation in the Labor campaign
which indicates the left-wingers fear party
lines will be forgotten on election day, how
ever bitter the campaign may be, to the end
that Churehilrs government will be in
sdorsed. Victory for Churchill will be
major setback for communism in Europe.

figures for the aerial forces engaged are

LOOSE GUESSING

The United States is on such loving re-
lations with the European countries that
have been freed that our politicians are
telling us how to get all of our money back
through foreign trade. But they fail to ex-
plain how France and all these other coun-
tries are going to be able to buy billions of
dollars worth of machinery from the Unit
ed States.
Our government is determined to fl
nance a world bank and take care of all
the wants and cure the sufferings of our
brave partners overseas. Besides putting
up the money Congress is inclined to accept
every feature of the trade-treaty schemes
fathered by Cordell Hull. A casual study
of the Hull plan shows that it is mostly a
transfer of authority, which simply means
that Congress will turn over the entire job
to the State Department. SO go
When you figure it all out, the tariff
question is the loosest guessing game on the
international horizon. So we'll have to wait
few more years to find out more about the
trouble in foreign trade.
