James P. Ross, assistant general
manager of the Havre de Grace
race track, has been around the

personal history of every board in
its old-fashioned grandstand. He
can lie abed in his little white
cottage near the head of the

of hoofbeats about where horse
is running on the track and
whether it's a good workout.

you unwittingly drift away from

Whoever saw an elephant on a

did. The beast pulled the harrow
at the St. Louis Fair Grounds
years ago. And how many fans
remember the old Delmar track
near the same city that had. as
Ross described it, four stretches
and four turns?
Having worked at everything
around a track from exercise boy
on up, Ross is admirably suited
for his role of seeing that every
thing goes properly during the
'Graw meeting. Whatever success
he has had in racing and it has
been considerable, Ross says he

Time to Freeze Strawberries


Freezing strawberries It's easy
to do-you don't have to work
much harder than when you're
preparing them to eat fresh. Here's
how.
Strawberries for freezing should
be uniformly ripe, at the stage
you would use them on the table
as fresh berries. Green, or over
ripe, mushy berries do not freeze
well. Freeze the berries as soon
after picking as possible. They
lose quality and spoil quickly if
held even for short periods.
Sort the berries and remove the
green and overripe ones. Cap them
at the same time. Then wash the
berries in cold water and remove
any soil. A wire basket may be
used to hold the berries while
washing. Don't try to wash too
many at once, however, as it is
difficult to get them clean that
way. Drain berries in a colander.
There are two ways you can
pack your berries, according to
Miss Gertrude Holloway, nutrition
specialist, at the University of Del
aware. You can slice them or
leave them whole. The flavor of
sliced berries is considered better
by many people, but it is a matter
of individual taste. 1t may depend
on how you will use the berries.
If you are going to slice them, do
it now.
Mix the berries with sugar. Use
one cup of sugar to or 5 cups of
berries. Mix we'll in a bowl until
the sugar is dissolved. Some juice
will be formed. Now you are ready
to package your berries. They can
be packaged in waxed cartons or
plastic bags. suggest that you see
your locker operator and have him
explain the different types of pack
ages to you. Most locker operators
also sell packaging materials, and
know the merits of each kind.
When packaging your berries,
leave little room in the package
to allow for expansion in freezing.
Then seal the package tightly to
keep out any air and prevent dry
ing out of the berries. After they
