F or Radio Listeners
By Brpson Rash

William Coyle, radio director OF
The Star, returned this past week
from his wartime duties with the
Navy to resume his civilian career
In Washington radio.
Mr.. Coyle left The Star in 1912,
on military leave, when he was
commissioned in the Naval Reserve.
He served in the Pacific theater
during the war and had attained
the rank of lieutenant commander
before his recent release.
He is expected to resume the
duties he left off to 60 to war, acting
as liaison between The Star and
WMAL and arranging Star pro-
grams in the public interest over
the station.
VOL has been granted a power
increase by the Federal Comrnuni-
cations Commission. The signal of
the Cowles station will be boosted
to 5000 watts from its present 1000
watt rating. The new transmitter
will be located on Brookeyale
road, in Montgomery County, near
Wheaton, Md. This power boost will
increase the signal of VOL ap-
preciably in Montgomery County
and Alexandria and particularly in
the District.
The more powerful voice of the
station will be evident within so
days when it is estimated the towers
and equipment will be installed. All
this, of course, does not change the
VOL position on the dial. it will
still be. found at 1850
While we are on this subject of
VOL, the station has not yet found
a successor to Russ Hodges, who
leaves Washington on March /. Russ
goes to New York to broadcast the
Yankee baseball games and the foot
ball games of the Yankees in the
new All-American League. Last
year Russ broadcast the Detroit
Lions games in the National League,
so this probably makes him the first
broadcaster to Jump to the new
league.

plenty of glass containers, rubber,

Report to the Housewife

There seems to be plenty OF
asparagus In the market, coming
from South Carolina and from Cali
tornia-but the quality, so far. is
only so-so. The price is not $3.50
at all. Fresh peas are recommended
again this week, along with snap
beans, limas, broccoli, cabbage, cau-
lifiower and celery. Beets and Gu
cumbers are bit on the scarce side
in most markets, but the fancier
produce stalls have them to offer.
Eggplant is fairly abundant, and
there are good carrots, green pep
pers, yellow and white squash, and
tomatoes. The green's include spin
ach, from Texas, and kale, collards,
turnip tops, rape, and some dande-
lions, from the Norfolk area. Some
garden lettuce has returned, to sup
plement supplies OF iceberg, ro-
maine, escarole. and chicory. There
are few more onions on hand, and,
of course, plenty of shallots and leeks,
as well as chives. Watercress and
parsley are OF better quality than
we have seen in long time. Mush-
rooms are large, white and ex-
pensive.
The fruit picture is rather a dis
NAL one, except for the citrus va
xieties. AL Of these, with the ex-
ception Of tangerines, are available
here in abundance. Some red pine
apples from Cuba, avocados, rather
poor apples, and a few scattered,
mediocre strawberries are to be had
for the looking. The strawberry
situation. by the way, is expected to
improve over the week end, with the
arrival of the first shipments from
Louisiana.
That good old lenten standby, fish,
Is doing noble job this week. Won
derful buck and roe shad from
Chesapeake Bay will be headlined
in many narkets-with an even big
ger run expected next week. There
are lots of oysters for soups, SteWs
and other dishes. Cod, haddock,
perch and founder f1llets are plenti-
full and reasonable, as are croakers,
Spanish mackerel, rockish and
fresh frozen trout. Next week look
for fresh frozen swordfish steaks
they're on their way But don't look
for crab meat or shrimp-they are
worse than scarce.
In the meat line we note a large
number of boned, rolled lamb shoui-
ders being offered. Other cuts Of
lamb will also be available, but the
forequarters will be the best buys
I understand this situation arises.
at times due to the fact that, with
lamb, the laws of nature are out
ragged, and the tail goes over the
fence first-that is, the hindquarter
cuts are most popular and there
fore sell faster, leaving the fore
quarters a hard job to catch upl

Less Wheat,
More Oats

Current supplies of oats available
for food in this country are larger
than they have been in several
years. So, eating a little more oat-
meal and a little less bread is one
way Americans can save the wheat
needed to avert starvation abroad.
A serving of oatmeal equals two
slices of bread in food value, says
the Bureau of Human Nutrition and
Home Economics. And when put
ting this timely arithmetic to work,
another fgure-fact to remember is:
If every man, woman and school
child will replace two slices of
bread with a serving of oatmeal
each week, this will mean $4,000
tons of wheat for the hungry, in
four months time.
Oatmeal ranks even above whole
wheat in some respects as highly
nourishing grain food. In milling
oats. only the fibrous hull and ad-
herring portions are removed, leav-
ing the entire kernel with its germ
and other vitamin-rich and min
eral-rich portions as human food.
Coarsely ground, the kernel is
true oatmeal. The more familiar
form called rolled oats is prepared
by steaming and then f1attening the
kernels between steel rolls. To pro-
duce quick cooking'' rolled oats
the kernels are cut and flattened
thinner than for the regular" type
of rolled oats. In everyday use all
these are often called oatmeal.
Oatmeal contains calcium and
iron; the B vitamin thiamine; about
60 calories to a half-cup serving
for bodily energy; and protein fol
body tissue building and repair
When a bowl of oatmeal is served
with milk, or oatmeal is used ir
cookies containing egg, or when oat-
meal is blended in a meat loaf
the proteins of the plant and ami
NAL foods supplement one another
as to essentials the body requires
Even little protein from an ami
NAL teamed with the grain forms q
highly nournishing combination.
Oatmeal can be used also in place
of some of the wheat -four to make
highly nutritious yeast bread, muf-
fins and biscuits.
