SUSPENSE

Driving on the highway after spending
the weekend fishing, were two good
friends. Suddenly a fog covered the high
way and forced them to stop. Along the
side of the road was a house.
They knocked and a beautiful farmers
daughter answered. She gave them food
and shelter. They left the next morning.
A few months later one of the friends
received an official looking letter from
lawyer. Immediately he contacted his par
tner by phone"Listen Dick" he said.
"How much time did you spend with that
farmers daughter that night we were for
ced to STOP"
"a little Dick answered slyly.
why did you give her my name and
address, instead of your own"
"Listen pal. don't blow your top. Where's
your sense of humor, I didn't mean any
thing by it. l was just kidding"
"T'm not mad at all. I just called to
thank you for giving her my name. She
died last week and left me the farm and
$4,000 in cash"

BeerShortoqe Recognized Problem Here
 Little Draft Beer,
 Fewer Brands RepoFed
 Available

Waterbury's beer shortage is grow ing worse instead of better, restau- rant and tavern operators reported .mournfully today. The supply will become even smaller as summer ap- breaches, they said, and many . thirst will have to 90 unslaked.
 Deliveries of keg beer from na- tionally known breweries in the midwest have been almost entire ly halted. Draft beer from we'll known breweries in New York and other eastern states has become only a trickle for most establish rnents.
 Because of the 30 percent cut in grain suplies for brewers, Connec- ticut breweries are unable to keep up with the greatly increased de- mand for their products. They are naturally giving first preference to old customers.
 A number of local taverns and restaurants now have had to elim- mate the sale of draft beer one or more days a week, selling only bot tied beer on such days. Some es- establishments now get only one third the quantity of draft beer they were receiving a few months ago.
 Package stores report that bottled beers are becoming much harder to get. Unlike the time when he could make his choice from dozens of brands, the customer is now lucky If he can choose from three or four brands. To add to- the woes of beer drinkers, prices of several types have gone up a cent or two in recent weeks,

Frozen Dough Discussed By State Bakers
 WaF-TIms Experiment
 May Widen BuSIness
 Activities

Use of frozen dough by housewives to simplify baking will be one of the new post war benefits 1t was re- vealed during a panel discussion on frozen bakery products at a conven- of the Connecticut Bakers Associa- ton yesterday at The Elton. Frozen unbaked products were used by the Navy during the war to great advan- tage on submarines and small ships which did not carry bakers.
 A display of frozen baked and un- baked products was presented at the convention by Fred Wolfe, Jr., of East Hacen. Other bakery execu- tives on the discussion panel were William V. Tobin, head of the Epi- cure Shop and president of the or- ganization; Arvid 0. Marcuson, West Hartford; Leon A. Mcdonald, Bridgeport; Norman 0. Heilman, Wallingford, and Louis Adelman, New Haven.
 Explanations of experiments now being conducted by the baking in- dustry in frozen pies was also given during the panel. Bakeries will be established near orchards so that the perishable fruits can be baked with less chance of spoilage. The pies would then be quick-frozen and distributed for sale.
 Henry P. Montminy of Cambridge, Mass, representative of the AIn- erican Society of Bakery Engineers, discussed the results possible through the use of the new 30 per cent extraction flour. He revealed that there was no appreciable dif- ference in texture, coloration, con- sistency or taste with products made with regular high-grade flour. He offered exhibits of cakes, pie crust, cookies and sweet dough made with both the old and new types of flour.
 Members of the arrangements committee for the convention in- cluded MT. Tobin, William o. Taylor, Adolf Raymond, Salvatore lava, F. W. Schneider and Harry Sniff.

ReU. Roger ". Barney St. Johns Preacher
Marine Chaplain, Who Made Headlines During World War II, Final Lenten Cueat Tomorrow
GUest Tomorrow

The Rev. Roger w. Barney, as- Sistant at St. Johns Episcopal Church here during the summer of 1899 and curate during l940 and 1941, will be the Lenten preacher at that church tomorrow night. It will be the fifth in the series of Wednesday Lenten services featur- ing former curates as guest preach- CTS.
 Rev. Mir. Barney was a Marine chaplain during the second World War and made headlines through out the world for sleeping on the biggest booby trap on Two Jima which was in a dugout where he took shelter during the terrific bombardment by the Japanese. He later joked about 1t and said he felt much safer in the dugout with the bopby trap than he would have on the outside of the dugout.
 He and another Episcopalian chaplain entered an abandoned Jap gun emplacement, cut a string which they found lying quite limp on the box and all in sweet inno- cence used for a pillow mound of earth which later was discovered to be the largest booby trap on Two Jima. The booby trap contained enough picric acid to sufficiently obliterate anything within a radius of 12 feet, and to make uncom- fortable whoever was hapless en- ough to be caught within a radius of 40 feet. The emplacement, which housed three corpsmen and corp oral, besides the two chaplains, measured roughly eight by 10,
 Following the church service a reception will be held in St. Johns Guild Hall for Rev. MT. Barney, sponsored by the Mothers Guild.

Your Rights
BY DOUGLAS LARSEN MEAS Staff Correspondent

Washington, April 9-(NEA)-- Relatives and friends of men still overseas have one big question in common. Each wants to know when his son, husband, or sweetheart will be coming home. Every day the War Department is swamped with queries on this subject.
 It is almost impossible to tell when any one man will be back and discharged. Although the war is over, Tanks overseas still have vital jobs to handle.
 General Eisenhower recently stated the policy of the War De- partment on the return for dis charge of men overseas which will be in effect until the end of this June. Some time before the first of July another statement will be made concerning the speed with which soldiers will be released. Un. til that change or another, is an- 1lounced, here is how to figure when your CT will be out or on his way home. The words are General Eisenhower's.
 By April 90, all enlisted men (except volunteers) with 45 points as of September ?, 1945, or with 30 months service as of April 30, l946, will be separated from the Army or aboard ship returning home. A0-POINTERS OUT JUNE %
 By June 30, all enlisted men {except volunteerO with 40 points as of September 2, 1045, or with 24 months service as of June 30, 1046, will be separated from the Army or aboard ship returning home"
 Volunteers" in this case refers to men who, since Vel Day, have volunteered for another period of enlistment, or have agreed to stay in the Army until they are no longer needed.
 AS for officers, the War Depart ment has announced that all with 24 months of service as of August 3i, 1940, will be separated from the service or en route home by that date. Excepted from this provision are Regular Army, volunteer, and Medical Department officers, as well as a few officers in certain scarce categories.
