NEW YORK, Nov. 23.-A five-
pound haggis, a Scottish delicacy
composed. Of sleeps hearts, livers
and lungs cooked with spices and
oatmeal In sleeps stomach, ar
rived today by air after an event
ful trip from the highlands OF Scot
land.
The haggis, bound for Chicago
where on st. Andrews day, Mo-
vember 80, 1t will be piped into the
annual dinner Of the st. Andrews
Society, encountered trouble when q
British Board Of Trade inspector
ruled that haggis was food in spite
of the conviction Of most non Scots
that 1t is absolutely inedible. Food
because of present shortages, cannot
be exported from the British isles
But the problem was solved when
1t was found that British regula-
tions allow each outbound airplane
passenger to take IL pounds of food
with him.
Julius A. Mossman, an American
overseas Airlines employe, yolun-
teered to take the haggis with him
1t will be sent on to Chicago Mon
