MILK AT EVERY
 MEAL
Christine A. Heller
 Nutrition COnsultant Territorial Health Dept.

Growing boys and girls need milk at every meal if they are going to get enough material to help make strong bones an.l teeth. There are several different kinds of milk used in Alaska-canned milk, powdered ;nllk, and fresh milk, All of these inilks are good.
 Some boys and girls, especially those newly arIiy ed from the states, haven't learned to drink canned or powdered mix. We don't pro- duce enough fresh milk in Alaska so their mother will have to learn to use the evaporated and powdered milk in many different ways so that their children will get enough milk Milk can be used in making cocoa and other milk drinks, cream ed soups, puddIlgs and many other nutritious diShcS

 An independent producer has an- nounced plans to film the life of the Pacific War ace, "Pappy" Boy ington. Well. I'm heartily in favor of acknowledging the great deeds of our fighting men-and I'm also well aware of the magnificent combat record of Boyington. But with so many heroes to choose from, it strikes me as somewhat unfortunate that Holly should select a man whose wartime exploits have been so greatly over-shadowed by his post war romantic escapades!
 Since his return from Austria, Helmut Dantine has made number of statements that tend to criticize American foreign policy where mid dle-Europe is concerned-and he's been ridiculed by persons who say What does Hollywood actor know about foreign policy?" Ordi- narily, I'd be the first to ask that same question. but in this case, I'm afraid of another opinion. Dantine is qualified to express his opinions. He was schooled in the diplomatic corps of Austria and was actually serving a foreign assignment when the war broke out He's something more than a casual observer.

 And so, I arrive at what lot of our readers will consider an anus ing conclusion, namely, that ours would be a happier, healthier world if all sphygmomano-m (gadgets for measuring blood pressure) were left exclusively to the physiology la boratory and the popular mind were disabused of the idea that high blood pressure is disease or condi- tion that is susceptible of treatment by medicine, diet or other specific remedy. It is as sensible to enter tain that idea as it is to think there is some specific medicine, diet or other treatment for high temper autre (fever) regardless of what ails the individual.
 After all the professional skill of the doctor always was and still is more reliable than the blind record of a machine.

I hate to mention this lest read CTS of limited o. takes fright where only assurance or encouragement is intended. But the truth is that most of the crises of tragedies that accur from heart or artery disease happen, not when the individual is busy at his or her activity, muscular work, exercise, play, but rather when he or she is at rest This statistical fact alone, it seems to me, cancels out whatever theory or fancy the old timers conceived as warranting their policy of rest, rest and more rest for all sufferers from heart or artery trouble.

The most competitive city in the world is also a town of the stoutest friendships. Two near tragic ac- cidents brought the friendship of Van Johnson and Keenan Wynn to the fore. One of those occurred while they were appearing together in the same motion picture
 Wynn, one of Hollywood's most enthusiastic motorcyelists. was roll ing his motor bike home one Sunday morning. Suddenly car swerved in front of him, there was rending crash, and Wynn was lying in the road.
 Several minutes later, Johnson driving along the same road, spotted the wrecked motorcycle. Then he saw his pal For three days and nights, while Keenan's life hung in the balance Van never left his side. He rode him in the ambulance, he stayed with him in the rospital and huddled anxiously with doctors.
 In the weeks that followed, while Keenan recuperated from a jaw broken in three places, severe head concussion and painful lacera- tions, Johnson divided his time be- tween the studio set and the hos pital
 Meanwhile, the picture in which they fued from first reel to last, Easy to We'd which will be shown at the Strand Theatrer this week iuggled it's shooting schedule to await Keenans return with the minimum loss of time. Possibility of replacing the popular young actor in his role was not even considered
 The situation was identical, but with positions of the principals re- versed, to that which came close to costing Johnson his life It was two years to the month before Wynn's nnishap that Van figured in col 1ision hat hospitalized him for ten weeks.
 They were ten weeks during which Wynn scarely left his pal. At the end of that period Johnson was moved to the Wynn home to com plete his convalescence.
 Johnson's career might have suf- fered a tragic setback had he been replaced in his role in "A Guy Named Joe" which had begun film ing. Instead, the picture was de- layed until he could return. It was In that role that his star poten- tialties were first established anc his phenomenal climb to stardon actually began on that date.

bid five diamonds and gone down one, but when timid Mrs. Moore got to four hearts, both Fishbein and I wanted to double it at the same time
 Mrs, Moose (South) trumped my opening lead and played a small heart, which Fishbein (East) won with the king. Fishbein returned another diamond, Mrs. Moore trumped, and led another heart which I won with the ace. I led the third diamond, Mrs. Moore trumped and cashed the ace of spades. A small spade was won with dummy $ ten-spot and the jack of hearts led, picking up Fishbein's last trump Mrs. Moore discarded her king of spades, and all of the spades in dummy were good.
 This line of play once again brings out the importance o1 counting your tricks. Mrs. Moore saw that she had five spade tricks three diamond ruffs, the ace ot clubs and high trump. All she had to do was to be careful tc handle the play so that none o1 these winners dropped hv e@- side.
