Canned Bartlett Pears from the
state OF Washington are ready to
help with many interesting dishes
this spring and summer. Early
poets sang the praises OF the pear.
and Homer ia his works referred
to them az the Gift OF God. II these
early poets could see the Bartlett
Pear as II has been developed
today. they would scarcely recog-
nlze IL as the fruit TO which they
sang praises centuries ago. Today
Il is one OF the most deliSate OF
all fruits, In favor, color and
texture.
Washington is one OF the leading
states In the production OF Bartlett
Pears. with it's unique location
along the Pacific Coast. Here the
orchards flourish in rich volcanic
ash soil. under scientific irrigation.
Bartlett Pears, differ from most
other deciduous fruits Ia that they
attain their highest quality when
harvested before they are fully yApe.
After they have developed saf-
hciently. they are harvested In the
slightly green stage and reach
their highest quality by fully ripen-
ing. on the tree.
The canned Bartlett Pear has a
clear. cream color tending toward
translucency. They are uniform In
shape and size, have firm yet
tender texture. with a comparative
ly small number OF grit cells These
qualities place them second 10 none
In the canned pear varieties.
Pears are a popular fruit served
when chilled. as they come from
the can. Serve them AS breakfast
fruit or as a dessert fruit. They
accompany meat to stretch the
meat supply and to AFFORD an attrac-
tive garnish 10 the meat platter.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 16.-"Little

in harness in plenty of time to plaJ
in next Sundays intra- squad game
at Long Beach. Preliminary X-Ray
examinations showed no permanent
damage to the bruised right leg that
put him in sick bay Saturday night.
but doctors wanted to double check
the injury.
Gilmers injury emphasized sew
eral things, particularly the way he
plays football. Little Harry puts
everything into everything he does
on the field. He really appears to
be another Baugh, great passer,
but fine all-around player in the
bargain. Signing Gilmer was the
smartest move made by Prexy
George Marshall since he lassoed
Baugh II years ago. "Phenonfonal
is the word for him" said Paul
Schissler, veteran college and pro
coach and now adviser to Owner
Danny Reeves Of the Los Angeles
Rams. I've never seen a player
pick up the T as quickly and as
we'll as that youngster."
Gilmer IS handling the T much
better than Baugh when the thin
man changed over from the single
wing. He still gets his wires crossed
now and then, but, as Coach Turk
Edwards says, he always knows
what he wants to do. He'll make
the game interesting for everybody,

Mrs. A. c. Randolph's Willful
Tino from Upperville. Va, making
his first appearance in the open
jumping circles, upset a top field
of jumpers at yesterdays Bull Run
Club Horse Show to win the jumper
championship.
Willful Tino. ridden in the open
division by Robert Curran, took
blues in the warmup and open
jumper events to finish one point
ahead Of J. F. McCauley's Spin Boy,
whose only win was in the knock
down-and-out In the ladies' hunter
class, Wilful Tino had perfect
round, with 13-year -old Nina Win
throp in the irons, to take the top
position.
Hunter champion was J. North
Fletcher's chestnut gelding, Golden
Arrow. Under the capable handling
of Mrs. Fletcher, he accounted for
the open hunter, seconds In the
model and green hunters and fourth
in the hunter hacks to finish with
nine points.
A three-way tie resulted for re-
serve honors among Willful Tino,
Claude Owens Skys Image and
Holiday Hill Farms Really Rugged.
The decision, based on conforma-
tion, went to Really Rugged.
Most spectacular event was the
knockdown-and-out in which the
fourth fence was q single pole.
After continual duckings under and
refusals, Hi Rock Farms Pepper P
and j. F.. McCauley's Spin Boy were
tied for first place.
The single pole which had been
raised to approximately 5 feet s
inches created hazardous jump for
any horse Joe Green, doing the
saddle work on Pepper P, displayed
good reasoning by pulling his horse
up and refusing instead of en-
dangering his mount or himself.
Spin Boy was ridden at the fence
and after two knockdowns finally
cleared to win first, place in the
class.

The Japanese are the more potent
