HIKING CTJJBS

From Miss X. M. L., Greenbelt.J
Mrs. w. H. B. of Hyattsville has
written a very fine letter on hiking
for recreation and forming friend
ships. There are two other well
known open hiking clubs in the
District that welcome newcomers
to their groups, the Capital Hik-
ing Club and the Jewish Com
|munity Center Hiking Club.
A hike is rarely leisurely. The
group usually moves along at a
normal walking pace with rests
along difficult terrain and with a
stop of an hour or more for lunch.
The National Capital Parks
Boots and Buses trips, discon-
tinued for the winter. are good in
PRODUCTION to hiking as the hikes
are. only 3 or 4 miles long and
acquaint the city walker with
walking on the ground without
firing him too much to enjoy the
exercise and the scenery.
The wonderful writer of This
and That" on the editorial page,
Mr.. Charles E. Tracewell, recently
stated that the plea for walking
more is not based just on the
Doctors advice for the physical
man, it is more than ever the need
of the mental man.
AS regular hiker, I assure my
self of a vacation every week end
and return to work on Monday
morning with the feeling of hav-
ing been somewhere with enjoy
ment, and now bring on the work !!
Many thanks to Mrs. w. H. B.
for having introduced this Won
derful activity to the RICH.

Extra Sugar Hurts
Home Ice Cream

If your refrigerator-m made ice
cream fails, perhaps you used too
much sugar.
Extension food specialists at
Ohio State University say that
the amount of sugar used often
makes the difference between
good and poor ice cream.
Frozen desserts require more
sugar and flavoring because our
taste buds are less sensitive when
the mouth is chilled. On the other
hand, sugar lowers the freezing
temperature of the ice cream
mixture. Too high a proportion OF
sugar may lower the tempera-
ture to such an extent that the
mixture will not freeze, or only
freeze to a soft mushy consis-
tency.
Amount of sugar required to
sWeeten an ice cream mixture to
a desirable degree depends on the
ingredients used. For example, a
fruit ice cream will require more
sugar than a plain ice cream, par
ticularly if the fruit is quite acid,
A general rule is to use not more
than one part of sugar to four
parts of liquid.

was pointed out by officials that
each summer in Dayton and Mont

drown. One Of the principal causes
is the lack of knowledge of
swimming technique (another
cause is the large amount of
swimming in unprotected areas).
Last year the overwhelming ma
jority Of drowning occurred
among Negroes, it a emphasize

thus far this year was a young
Negro girl. Consequently a drive

At U. C. L. A., Robinson was

average of IL yards per play and
was named on several Allan

quarter-finals of the So. Califor-

came when he broke his brother,
