Bronze Grass

Bronze Grass seeded in the fall with wheat
works out very satisfactorily. We recon-
mend seeding Bronze Grass this fall and then
seeding June Clover or Alsike Clover in the
spring, if alfalfa is not available. There is no
alfalfa available at this time, and very likely
the supply for spring will be very limited, so
it seems that it would be wise thing to do to
be looking ahead for hay crop in 1947.

We HAVE all heard about the
Joys Of the barefoot boy. But now
that the warm weather is APP
preaching. a word of warning
might not be amiSS. Certain kinds
of worms enter the body through
the feet. One type of worm that
may get into the body is the hook
worm. Hookworm infcstation oc-
rurs usually as a result of persons
walking barefoot in contact with
soil that IS polluted with the
worms. When worms get into the
body. the condition is called iufcs-
tatlOn.
If enough of these worms are
present in the body or if the per-
son affected uses a diet which does
not contain enough protelnS and
iron, severe ancmia or ~lesscninC of
the cololing in the blood will de-
vclop. If, on the other hand. not
many worms are present and the
diet is satisfactory, no ancmia
occurs.
lron-Rich Foods
If the diet is rich in iron-con-
tanning foods and %proteins, many
worms may be present without
anemia occurring. Other symp-
toms of hookworm in~festation are
fatigue and nervousness.
If one person in a family is
found to be infested it is advisable
that other members of the family
be examined by the doctor to de-
terminc whether or not they also
are suffering from the same con-
dition.
In treating hookworm infesta-
ton, according to Doctor Justin
Andrews Of Georgia, a drug called
carbon tctrachloride seems to be
the most effective substance. 1t is

administration of this drug the pa

GRECO AMONG
 GREATEST OF
 NEW FIGHTERS

When Johnny Greco, the Cana dian-born lightweight. now boxing at 140 pounds makes his first show ing in Connecticut next week, Mon- day, at Municipal Stadium, fans from three states will get good look at one of the best fighters and box-ofice attractions that have come along in many year.
 In just three bouts with Bridge ports Bobby Rufhn, now resident of Astoria, L. l., Greco has attract ed $2O0,0c3 worth of fight fans to Madison Square Garden. His style of fighting, which gives little re- gard to the finer points of the game such as defensive boxing. is what makes the average fan "go" for Greco, as he has terrific punch to go with his courage and stamina, and, like many good fighters is most dangerous just after he is hurt by heavy punch on knocked down.
 Local Boy Speedy
 In Benny Singleton, Greco will be meeting young boxer who has speed to burn; natural" whose rise in amateur and professional boxing has ben meteoric. From nowhere" he came up through the Metropolitan AAU tournament in March of 1943 and gained the finals, just missing the 135 pound cham pionship. AS professional, he has been defeated less than a half dozen times; twice by Johnny Cool of Worcester; and for boy who boxed his first pro bout on the Pep Costantino card last summer in Wa terbury he has done well. Single ton has ben in the US. Merchant Marine service with his manager, Chuck Williams but has fought steadily for the past two months, despite considerable overseas serv- ice. Tn Greco, he will be meeting his toughest foe, but his handlers feel he has the speed and boxing ability to defeat one of the best "club" fighters of modern times.
 Dan Parker, Waterbury born sports editor of the New York Mir TOT. and an internationally known writer, will be a ringside guest of Promoter George F. Mulligan. Jack Dempsey, friend of the promoter for 20 years has also been invited Ii he is available.
 Addition of Kenny James, local colored middleweight to the Greco Singleton card has struck a popu- lar chord among fans of the north end and Brooklyn sections, as James has been winning steadily in out of-town battles in Massachusetts and is ready for a fine showing in his home town. He will be seen in six round bout against a good opponent, Promoter Mulligan said today
 Oscar St. Pierre of Fall River and Al Freda of Worcester are apt to steal the show in their eight round semi-final bout, while the opening four rounder will feature two heavyweights one of them a local lad, Bill Festa against Bernie Cobb of Boston.

Thomier, German Boxer, Ruined By HitIer's Troops
By ROBERT MUSEL

United Press Staff Correspondent
 Bremen, June IA - U.P) - Gus tav Thomier, once the number one challenger for Max Schmeling's German heavyweight championship, is through with his boxing career because he was anti-NaZi.
 Thromier, who should be a 190- pounder at the peak of his career, now weighs a mere 140, while Schmeling, the Nazi, is sleek and healthy in Hamburg.
 Thromier, who says he still can throw a pretty good punch, never will enter ring again. SS men in concentration camp cut through stomach muscles three broad gashes, whose angry scars he show ed me.
 They knew I was a fighter and tsss rUirs my chance forever" he said.
 The boxer was arreted when he described Adolf Hitler's dreams of world conquest as ridiculous when confiding to supposed friend. He now is working as maSSeur in the Army baths.
 Thromier's boxing record shows 48 victories, three draws and three defeats. All of his losses were in close bouts.

Final Valley Standing,
Keen Play In Leuque

Moore, Hermon,
 Rowe Experiment
By SGT. BILL GOODRICH

Dy SO1. DILL GOODklCH
 Marine Combat Correspondent Distributed by the United Press)
 Somewhere in the Pacific-1UP)- War has changed many things, in- cluding the baseball positions of three major league players.
 The players are Dee c. Moore. Billy Herman and Lynwood (school- boy) Rowe.
 Moore, a Marine private first class. was last a catcher with the Philadelphia Phillies. Since over seas, the one-time Cincinnati Red and Brooklyn Dodger catcher has taken to pitching. Recently, in his first effort on the mound, he blanked a Navy team ' to 0, allow ing only one scratch single.
 Herman, former Chicago Cub and Brooklyn Dodger second baseman, has turned his postwar thoughts to umpiirng, although he has been playing regularly with a Navy unit in league competition.
 Rowe, a pitcher with the Detroit Tigers and the Phillies before the war, manages and plays the outfield for another Navy team. The school boy, always good hitting pitcher has developed into a fence buster out here.

 Frankie Silva, the all-around col ored boy. has been standout in Wilby athletics for the past two years, but he was never better than yesterday when he pitched and hit Wilby to a coveted victory that knocked Bill Tracy's Tech team out of the city title and a tie with Cros- by for the Al Kellie Memorial Tro- phy.
