Fres shness In Food Vital In Coming
By MIRIAM WEINRIB Waterbury Nutrition Council

Ladies, when you can fruits and vegetables at home do you make sure that they're fresh as a sailors whistle?
 The U. s. Department of Agricul- ture reminds you that it's important to can freshness because the fresher the food the better-looking, better-tasting canned product it makes ana the better its chances to keep. When you can freshness, you can more food value for your family, because you cap- ture more of the valuable vitamins.
 So, choose firm, ripe fruits from your garden. Or, if you buy fruit to can, see that it's in tip-top con- dition. And pick young, tender vegetables and can them quick ly You've heard the joke about the man who was determined he'd can 'em fresh he wouldn't pick his Victory garden vegetables until his wife called from the kitchen that the water was boiling. That man went a bit far, but he had the idea. The canning specialists say thlS: TWO hours rom garden to can is a good rule to follow |. to make sure you're canning fresh- ness"
 Tomatoes are the easiest vege- table to can at home. First of all, tomatoes, as you know, are canned safely in a boiling water bath. You don't need steam pressure canner for tomatoes.
 Point two, tomatoes-fresh or canned are rich in vitamin c.
 Point three, the tomatoes you can, in summer, bring variety and flavor and color to meals you'll serve next winter.
 Canning tomatoes and other gar- den vegetables and fruits-is your job! Home canning is one good way to conserve food. So keep on canning and remember-toma- toes are tops.

Bdtisto Optimistic About Cuba

Boston, July 16-(UP)-Gen. Full gencio Batista, former president of Cuba now on tour of New Eng land today expressed optimism about the future of his country if Latin-American relations continue on a friendly basis.
 The 45-year-old onetime revolu- tionary said on his arrival here that political extremes, uprisings, and dictator|ip, even anarchy, can fol- low unless there is a broad ex- change of commodities between North and South America"
 Batista visited Harvard Univer- sity and paid his respects to Mayor James M. Curley of Boston on the first leg of the tour.
 The general said economic condi- tions in Cuba today were good He said that when he led the rev olution as a sergeant 13 years ago, it was because the power then in command violated the constitution
 The people of Cuba still feel the same he said, warning all pres idents to abide by the letter of the law
 Batista, whose term expired in 1914, said he had no specific plans about running for president in 1852. The Cuban constitution says no president shall succeed himself for at least two four-year terms.
 The former president now is at work on a book entitled Americas, Beware, warning of the danger of the lack of friendly Latin-Amer- iean relations.

Fresh Crew
 ForA-bomb
 TestArrives

Off Bikini Atoll, July 17-(UP)- A fresh contingent of rats, goats and pigs arrived at Bikini today to take their places on the atomic fleet for the July 25 Baker Day. test, as the task force commander revealed less than Is percent of the animals exposed to the July 1 air-drop have died.
 Vice Admiral w. H. P. Blandy, commander of Operation Cross roads, said that of 3,519 goats, pigs, rats, mice and guinea pigs exposed to the aerial atomic explosion on Able Day, 2,982 are still alive, al- though many are injured in various degrees.
 Some 56O test animals died in the blast itself, but only 80. have suc- cumbed since then, the Admiral re- ported. He said this did not bear out reports that the animals were dying like flies"
 The U. s. s. Burleson returned to Bikini today to place about 760 ami mals, not previously exposed, aboard targets which will ride in the la goon during the shallow underwater atomic blast. The crew consisted of about 56O rats and 100 each of goats and pigs.
 Their exposure will aid science in developing methods of treating hu- mans who might be injured in an atomic war.
 Blandy also revealed that hu- mans will venture far nearer to the blast itself during the Baker Day test. Observer ships will steam as close as three to five miles where they will have a god view of the target ships and the waterspout and surface disturbances expected to be created
 AS to the danger of some marine catastrophe, Blandy scoffed at va- rious dire predictions, as he did be- fore the Able Day test.

Use of Alcohol Doe esn' Cause Peptic Ulcers

New York, July IT. CUP) - Use of alcohol, whether moder- ate or extreme, does not cause peptic ulcers, according to pr. William J. Loos, of Chicago.
 In fact, Loos said at the 50th convention of the American Ostepathic Association, alcohol tends 10 stop the body's pro duction of hydrochloric acid. Ulcers of the digestive tract, he said, occur only through the ac- tion Of this acid.
 Drinking, Loos said, may cause minor erosions of the peptic area walls, but these heal quickly. He said highly spiced foods such as some Mexican dishes are a greater stomach irritant than alcohol

Local Youths Please Brave CompLeoders
Ry YIN MALONEY

Hartford, July 17-At 4 P. M. yes terday the Braves Tryout Camp candidates called it day and pre- pared to return home. Some lived in Hartford and others in different parts of Connecticut The younger boys in the 16-18 age group worked out from 10 in the morning to ] P. M. at which time the older boys, ranging from Is through 23, were put through very strenuous bat ting and fielding drill.
 Ted McGrew, chief scout for the Boston Braves, cut about 30 candi- dates, but as closing time the two players from Waterbury, Gene Gladding and Steve George and George Massa from Naugatuck were still in the fold. They were told to report back to the camp for the first of series of inter-squad games, which will be held at Berkeley Stadium tomorrow at P. M. The Waterbury boys displayed plenty of hustle in the fielding workouts and also gave 8 good account of them selves when they stepped up to the plate.
 One of the officials of the camp stated it was too bad there were no pitching candidates from Water bury in the camp as Jack Ogden, former New York Giant and Balti- more Oriole hurler, was giving all the mound aspirants some excellent instruction on the art of pitching. Said one veteran spectator, I've been to lot of baseball tryout camps and I've never seen a man explain the art of pitching to a group of boys better than Jack Og- den"
 50 More Enroll
 When a boy registers he is i'm mediately given number which is pinned on the back of his shirt or jacket and this is his until the camp is over or until he is cut. About 50 more boys signed Up at the camp yesterday, according to Charlie Blossfeld, secretary of the Hartford Baseball club. More en- tries are expected every day as the boys read of the success of others in making the grade.
 All boys who look like outstand- ing prospects have a very good chance of being signed up with one of the Brave Farm teams. It is widely known the Braves are in- terested in expanding their Farm Club operations since they are under new management this sea- son.
 The first big cut in the ranks of the older candidates is expected to take place today when the first inter-squad game takes place If the two local boys can get through this session they have a pretty good chance of being in the class with those choice few who will be in the big game Saturday afternoon.
