New England Fans Get
 Good Break
By JOSEPH NOLAN United Press Sports Writer

Boston, Sept. 10-(UP) )-Swamped with requests for World Series tick cts which may total half a million by nightfall, Boston Red Sox off, ficials today instructed their clerks to reject all orders outside of New England area"
 The avalanche of applications which engulfed the Fenway Park business offices was described by Phil Troy, assistant general man. ager of the Red Sox, as the great est flood of World Series ticket re- quests within memory"
 Six Million Dollars
 The first mail brought 10000 let terS, all of which had to be mailed after last midnight to be acceptable. In addition there were 5000 special deliveries, 1000 registered letters and 5000 telegrams. And the post office said it would operate. shut tie service of one-ton trucks throughout the day to deliver the hundreds of thousands of additional applications.
 AU WOO CcCAlldOCO tlldI II1OIlSy OT- derS and checks arriving at Fen way Park today would exceed $6,- 100000.
 One For :
 They began accepting mail orders for tickets a minute after midnight via mail, but it was estimated that there would be from seven to 10 times as many requests as they would be able to handle.
 A staff of 40 neutral" extras was assembled to handle the ticket rush, with every effort being made to handle requests on first-come, basis.
 However, 1t may be difficult to settle claims by that method, par ticularly when most of the red-hot Boston fans awaited the fateful hour in person to be sure that let ters were put into the mail at ex- actly the right time.
 The club is permitting a maxi mum of two seats apiece to each applicant in an effort to share the wealth., but the sky is likely to be the limit on the prices of tickets

Merchants Bought Stocks
At Early British Fairs

British fairs originated a thou
sand years ago as part Of primi-
tive merchandising system in
which peddlers were the only travel
ing statesmen and there were no
advertisements, catalogs, or mail
orders.
The early fairs of England were
designed primarily for trade be-
tween British and foreign mer-
chants, importers and manufactur-
ers. At fairs merchants would in
spect the goods, select piece by
piece, and cart purchases over the
rutty roads to their shops or to
ports. The greatest fair in England
was Stourbridge fair just outside
Cambridge. Its early history is
unknown, the first recorded refer
ence being in a charter by King
John in 1911. Stourbridge fair con-
tinued until 1884. This fair was
under the direction of Cambridge
university. At night relocated stu
dents served as watchmen, going
about the grounds ''harnessed and
weaponed," and crying, Look
about you there!"

Early Bathing

Bathing for refreshment in hot
weather was introduced in Europe
by returning crusaders who learned
the secret from their enemies, the
Saracens, in the Holy Land. The
famous Order of the Bath, which
was established by Henry I Of Eng
land, in 1877, required its Knights
to take an all-over bath before re-
ceiving the aecolade. Baths made
the headlines in Good Queen Bess's
day. THE Queen has built herself
a bath wherein she doth bathe her
self once month, whether she re-
quires 1t or no." ran the gossip in
the current scandal sheet. Mar
guerite, youthful wife of Henry of
Navarro, was considered a shining
light in the Dark Ages because she
boasted that she washed her hands
at least twice week. ''To hunt,
to bathe, to play, to laugh--this is
to live" This was one of the favor
ite slogans Of the Romans who
had the most luxurious public baths
the world has ever known, equipped
with every known elegance-but
without single cake of soap.

DandeliOn Greens

Dandelion leaves are popular
served in a tossed salad, with
French dressing, and garnished with
slices of hard-cooked eggs. Or some
prefer them cooked, seasoned with
salt and pepper, and favored with
butter, bacon, meat drippings, vine
gar or lemon juice. Dandelions that
grow in rosette form are easy to
handle and to wash il you cut them
off at the root crown so that the
cluster of leaves holds together. Ex-
anime the dandeliens, and discard
any wilted or yellow leaves. Wash
the green's in at least three wa
ters, lifting them out Of the pan
before emptying the water so the
sand that settles to the bottom may
also be discarded. To cook dandelion
green's, put them in a fairly large
amount of boiling water in an un-
covered pan, and allow them to SIM
mer only until tender. Overcooking
dandelion greens makes them Bit
ter.

Find Paprika Gives
Trout Vivid Coloring

According to the Sportsmen's
Service bureau, the fish and Wild
life service has discovered a new
method of giving hatchery trout the
vivid coloration which has hereto
fore been considered exclusively
the property of fish reared in the
wild. The answer, believe it or not,
is to season the trout's diet literally
with paprika!
This innovation has been devel-
oped by A. v. Tunison, assistant di-
rector Of the services division of
game-fish and hatcheries. The ex-
periments were carried on in CO.
operation with the state Of New
York and Cornell university while
Mr.. Tunison was stationed at the
services laboratory in Cortland,
N. Y.
Hatchery-raised fish fed ex-
perimentally on gull eggs were the
first to show the natural coloring.
Analysis Of the eggs disclosed that
a carotenoid compound on which
the gulls fed was responsible for the
pigmentation. AS gun eggs were moi
commercially available, other sub
stances were sought that would pro-
duce similar results. This Led to the
discovery that 2 per cent Of paprika
in the diet for brook and brown
trout wotGid produce eoloration sim
liar to that of the wild fish. 1t was
not effective in coloring rainbow
trout. Fish taken off the papriks
diet retained their color six to eight
weeks. Flavor Of fish was not af.
fected.

Alligator Lizard

The San Diego alligator lizard a
slender rough-Scaled reptile found
in southern California, is one of the
best biological controls of the dread
black widow spider. These lizards
feed on black widow spiders and
their eggs. Along with certain 9TH
er parasites, the alligator lizard is
able to halt the increase Of the poi
sonous spider. The snakelike alliga-
tor lizards which grow to IL to l6
inches in length, are able to squeeze
into cracks and crevices where the
black widow spiders live. The liz
ard is harmless so far as human
beings are concerned. Unfortunate
ly, however, the common house cat
preys upon the lizards about as
aVidly as the lizard preys upon the
spiders.

Chromium Plating

The commercial application OF
chromium plating is due to DR.. Colin
Garfield Fink, metallurgist and re-
search engineer, who converted lab
oratory experiments into CONNER
cial practice about 1922 He obtained
U. S. Patent 1881, 1873 on April TO-
1925. Dr. FSak points out that chro.
MUM plating had been attempted
prior to 1922 but no one had discov-
cred the reason why the plate could
not be reproduced at viii. His dis
coVery was "the eatalytic agent nec-
essary to carry out chromium plat
ing commercially" The first apph-
cation of chromium plating to wrist
watches was sometime in 1929,
being one OF many numerous appli-
cations of the process and not
