 Faces WiIby Tomorrow
By YIN MALONEY

Coach Bill Tracy announced this morning that Big Nick LoRusso, Leavenworth fullback who was re- ported benched with a severe cold, would definitely be in the fullback spot when the Tech eleven meets Commercial High of New Haven under lights at the Municipal Sta dium tonight at 8:30 before an an- ticipated record breaking crowd.
 This morning the Leavenworth Athletic Association announced the advance-ticket sales had scared past the 1000 mark indicating a large crowd would be on hand to witness Techs final night contest.
 Last week Leavenworth defeated Manchester, 12 to 0, before about $500 fans at the Municipal Stadium under lights. This game tonight will be tough contest for the Big Red even though Commercial was de- feated 20 to o. by Hillhouse last week in their opener. Coach Tracy and his assistant Mike Pappa scout ed the Elm City outfit last week and said they have a very fast and de- ceptive backfield lineup plus heavy line.
 .... Daly Out
 Tonight Leavenworth will be without the services of Bart Daly, veteran right end, who is benched with an infected hand Outside of that Leavenworth will start Lo- Russo at fullback; Masotta and Bowman in the halfback slots; Per- rone at quarterback; Caputo and Titor at the end posts Paserelli and Rinaldi in the tackle berths; Barstis and Bernabe at guards; and Paul Iannaccone at center. If Lo- Russo and Masotta get the backing of their linemen the Big Red are expected to go places against the New Haven combine.
 Lezotte Eligible
 Despite Naugatuck's defeat at the hands of Derby last week by the score of B to 2, Tom Purcells Wilby Wildcats will have their work cut out for them when they meet Charely Kennys combine at the Stadium tomorrow afternoon at 3. Wilby dropped a heartbreaker to Plainville last week, Is to 12, but looked good in defeat. The winning tally came in the last 55 seconds of the final period.
 The Green and Whites Jimmy Ahrens will get the nod for right halfback while Datelle, Rush, Law Tor and Belanger will be seen in &C., tion in the backfieId. Tom Brown and Billy Darlington will be expect ed to spark the line in this all-im- portant tilt. Coach Purcell and his assistant, George Mulligan, Jr., have been drilling the squad at the Thomaston Avenue lot all week and they are expected to beat the bor- ough team. It is entirely possible that Norm Lezzott, a returned serv- iceman and former Wilby back, will be seen in action in tomorrow's game. Lezotte's eligibility was established legal last week.

Agriculture is Varied.
The slopes of Georgia's mountains

livestock, and the state has an
abundance of land, either rolling or
level, for growing vegetables, fruits,
corn, wheat, rye, oats, barley, buck

and dozens of other crops. The for
est timbers are oak, pine, poplar,
ash, beech, elm, chestnut, hickory,
maple, walnut, ironwood, sugar
berry and a score of others. Large
quantities of turpentine are pro-
duced.
Georgia's resources are vast. Its
climate and rainfall are conducive to
all plant life, and pleasant for hui
man beings. The gentle art of liv.
ing is practiced in Georgia, but there
remains depe-rooted determina-
ton to keep up the leadership, the
progress, that began over two cen.
turtles ago when the Oglethorpe
band landed at Savannah. Georgia
is state worth seeing, knowing

Mussel Boat Equipped
With Underwater Sails

Along the Ohio and Kentucky
rivers are boats that have no
masts, but they are equipped with
underwater sails. They're called
unused diggers" and are used to
dig mussels from the mud at the
bottom of the river. Mussels come
from a species of fish whose shells
are used to make shirt buttons
and cheap jewelry.
A long rod having two dozen or
more hooks, hangs from the bot
tom of the boat. In order to coun-
teract the drag of the rod, a sheet
of muslin or canvas is dropped
window-shade fashion over the
bow of the boat. 1t sinks, fills with
water, and the river current
sails" the boat downstream at
the required speed for digging
mussels.

soon after the Civil war ended,
Georgia resumed her enter

not even waiting for her re-

came in 1870.
There never has been any ques-
ton of patriotism and loyalty
among Georgians. During the Span
ish American war, Georgia fur

state. The heroism of Georgia's sons
in World War I and World War II

wanted to call him Ellis Excel

So states a marker at the
highest point in Georgia, 4,784
feet above sea level, at Mount
Enota, atop Brasstown Bald
mountain.
Back of that marker is over 400
years Of American history, begin
ming with the explorations of Her.
nando De Soto, the gold-seeking ad-
venturer who journeyed through
that area in 1910. And, if legend is
correct, islands off the coast were
regarded in those days as the "gold-
en- isles of Guale." Their winding
waterways were favorite haunts of
pirates of the Spanish main, and
today parties often search for treas
ure plate and "pieces of eight"
cached there by Blackboard. But
the real history Of Georgia begins
In 1888 with the founding Of Savan-
nah.
Refugees Get Charter.
Among the debtors in English
prisons were men of high charac-
ter, splendid education and great
ability. In London were benevolent
gentlemen, too, who sought to found
a home for these unfortunates and
place of refuge for the Salzbur-
gen and other prosecuted sects of
the continent Of Europe. They
obtained a charter from George II,
king of England, in June, 1882, and
selected Gen. James Edward Ogle-
thorpe as governor.
A man of great liberality and
marked ability, General Ogle-
thorpe landed at Yamacraw
bluff in February, 1888, with ZIG
emigrants and laid the founda-
tons for Savannah, the first
American city to be planned
before building.
During the next eight years about
$500 persons were brought over,
two-thirds of them German Protes-
tants. The Wesleys, John and
Charles, came in 1736 as young
clergymen. George Whitefield ar
rived in 1740. Thus, from a small
beginning, Georgia grew to take
its place, 40 years later, with
the other IL colonies in throwing
off British domination.
Ravaged by War.
Twice Georgia was ravaged by
war. In May, ITS, more than a
year before the Declaration of In
dependence, Col. Joseph Haber-
sham and Commodore Bowen with
80 volunteers seized the powder
magazine at Savannah and secured
$4,000 pounds of powder, of which
Georgia authorities sent 5000
pounds to the Continental army at
Boston. In March, l776, the Geor-
gians under Colonel Mcintosh, aid
ed by Carolinians under Colonel
Bull, burned and disabled 6 out of
II British merchant vessels which
were attempting to carry on trade
with loyalist planters.
In December, l778, the British
captured Savannah and Augusta fell
a few months later. After the fall
Of Charleston, S. c., in 1880, the
British overran all eastern Geor-
gia. 1t was not until 1871 that Col.

of Pickens and Light Horse" Harry

Hair Returned to Normal
With New Acid, Claim

Silver threads among the gold"
are being turned gold again through
daily doses of para-aminobenzoic
acid, newest publicized member Of
the vitamin B family. The hair of
gray-headed men and women as
elderly as SO years has been turned
back to its normal shade in over 80
cases at Boston City hospital. Suc-
cess in 300 other scattered cases was
reported at recent meeting of the
American Chemical society. The
newly identified antigray hair vita
min is found in yeast and liver.
Para-aminobenzoic acid is used in
synthetic form and costs only
around 10 cents a pound in large
quantities. 1t should. however, be
used under physicians guidance
because: When the 100-milligram
daily doses required to restore hair
color are given, blood pressure, in
some instances, may be raised
slightly. Despite this possible disad-
vantage no toxic effects of para
aminobenzoic acid have been OBJ
served. The antigray hair research
has been conducted by the Warner
Institute for Therapeutic Research
and the international Vitamin cor
poration of New York city.

ranged from so to 100 percent. In
the sub-acute outbreaks, the death
losses are lower, but it has taken
several months to get the fiocks
back on a paying basis. In the
chronic type, there have been few
deaths, but there has been sharp
loss in body weight and egg pro
dLction.
Unfortunately, symptoms Of New
castle disease may resemble several
otLer poultry diseases. There may
be sharp drop in egg production,
reduction in feed consumed, and
condition that looks like a cold,
which spreads rapidly through the
flock. Then the birds become dull,
their feathers become rlffled. they
breathe with difficulty, and some
times there are nerve symptoms
such as trembling, throwing the
head backward, or pulling the head
down between the legs. These signs
,ay be confused so easily with
other diseases that it usually re-
quires veterinary diagnosis to
tell Newcastle disease from others.
The condition is further compli-
Gated by the fact that this disease
affects birds of all ages-chicks,
pullets, and layers; and 1t also
affects turkeys, ducks, geese,
guinea foul, swans. parrots, and
y'ilC birds.

'Pasteur Ensyme' New
Traffic Cop for Foods

The chemical Identification Of a
cellular traffic cop" which directs
the human body's utilization of food
along the smooth and efficient road
of respiration instead of the energy
wasting detour of fermentation. was
announced by DR.. Kurt G. Stern of
the Yale university school of medi-
cine.
Without this strategic biological
substance. DR.. Stern declared in his
address at the meeting of the New
York section of the American
Chemical society, each adult would
have to consume the daily equivalent
of 10 leaves of bread.
DR.. Stern and his research asso-
ciates. DR. Joseph L. Melnick and
Delafield Dubois. named the newly
identified substance the "Pasteur
engine" in honor of DR.. Louis Pas
teur, who in 1861 discovered an anti
fermentation effect while carrying
out his experiments on yeast and
the fermentation OF beer. In the
cells of the human body fermenta-
tion converts sugar into Tactic acid
instead of alcohol.
A possible new insight into the
chemical riddle Of cancer was hint
ed by DR.. Stern in recalling the
discovery several years ago by DR..
Otto Warburg, Nobel Prize winner
in medicine, that tumor cells are
especially active in fermenting su-
gar into Tactic acid. He suggested
that this might be due to a shortage
of the newly identified Pasteur en-.
lyme. = ---sr's-
In spite of the fact that some
tumor strains can derive all the en-
ergy they need from respiration, :"
DR.. Stern pointed out, they may
form as much as their own weight
in Tactic acid per day, provided that
they are furnished the necessary
sugar."
A sufficient supply of the Pasteur
engine, he argued, might prevent
this diversion of the normal food
supply. .,..,,-.,.,,.,,.,-,,,.,.-.,..
