When Buby Meets Spoon
By Dorothy V. WHPPLE, NJ. D.
AP Nezgfsature Wrifer


AP Nezvfeature Wrifer
Did you ever try to suck down
mOuthful of applesauce? Try it
sometime. 1t doesn't work very
well. But that is what a baby will
do the first time you offer him some
food from a spoon.
Sucking is the only way he knows
how to eat and he uses it on what
ever food gets into his mouth. Us
ing tongue and lips to push food
from the front of the mouth back
far enough to go down the throat
requires an entirely different set
of muscles from those used for
sucking.
Small wonder that the baby's first
few experiments with spoon fed
foods often end with more food on
the face than down the throat. He
has to bring a complicated new set
of muscles under control before he
can manage food in this new form.
Use Small Spoon
There are a few little tricks to
teaching him this new way of eat
ing.
Use a small spoon, one that will
go easily into his mouth. A demi-
tasse spoon is much better than
one with a large bowl.
Select the right time for the first
lesson with a spoon Make sure he
is in a good frame of mind, neither
too hungry nor too full.
If it is feeding time and he is
crying vigorously with hunger, -
in agony to get some food into his
stomach, every fiber in his little
body yelling for something to ease
those gnawing hunger pains-yOu
will only make him mad by offer
ing a spoonful of stuff he doesn't
know what to do with. He wants
good warm milk. Better give it to
him and subdue those hunger
pangs.
Then when he feels better, and is
lying comfortable in your arms,
you can stop the milk, buTp him,
put him back ready to eat a little
more and then offer the spoon. Do
not wait until he has had all the
milk he wants, because he will be
too sleepy and relaxed to be bother
ed with anything more to eat.
Babies Prefer Fruit
The first food offered from a
spoon should taste very good. All
lessons are learned more easily
and quickly when they are pleas
ant. Fruit is the faVOrite food OF
most babies Therefore it's a good
idea to start spoon feeding with
either applesauce or ripe raw ban
ana-bOth easily digested fruits
Make sure the food is completely
smooth; Jumps in the food will
make it much more difficult for the
baby.
When everything is ready and
your baby is lying comfortably in
your arms, put the spoon with a
little warm applesauce between his
lips. Your baby will look surpris-
ed-very likely he will spit it out
not because he doesn't like it but
because he doesn't know what tC
do with it.
Talk to him Come now, little
man, this is good"
May Take A Week
Smile at him, scrape up the ap
plesauce from his face and pOk,
it back into his mouth. Laugh anC
play with him. In a few minute.
stop the spoon food and let hin
have more milk if he wants it.

Milford chronicle., 1953-12-04

Go gently and easily and only
a little at a time. In four or five
days time or maybe a week your
baby will have learned how to
manage smooth food from a spoon.
Very likely he will open his mouth
when he sees the spoon coming.
Then he is ready to try some
cereal from a spoon.

Sedgman-Kramer To Vie Tonight
RumOred Browns
Move Is Killed

SARASOTA, Fla. R-The idea of
shifting the st. Louis Browns to
Milwaukee in the immediate future
went into the books today as a
good idea that didn't work out.
After "a hours of rumors that
produced enough smoke to indi-
cate there really was some fire
behind them, the proposed shift
appeared definitely stymied
The deal as first disclosed by
Edward Prell of the Chicago Trib-
une and Russ Lynch, sports editor
of the Milwaukee Journal, went
like this:
Bill Week would move the
Browns TO Milwaukee's new $4,000
seat stadium and the Boston
Braves would move their Milwau-
American Association to some
other city.
The "other city" seemed to be
the hitch.
Joseph Cairnes, executive vice.
president of the Braves, said:
1--WE wouldn't stand in the way
of Milwaukee getting into the ma
jor leagues. But before we give
up the franchise we want a triple-A
franchise with the same potential.
We aren't interested in money.
We're interested in a.triple-A fran
chise."
The Braves were offered $500, 900
by the Greater Milwaukee commit.
tee to shift their triple-A operation
to Toledo but refused. Toledo
bowed out of the American Asso-
citation early last season. Almost
no other area any place near the
present American Association cities
has the population to support

Views From The Southernmost
Sporting Scene
By Charlie Conch
By Charlie Coneh

The Key West Golf Club is the
home ground for a pair of golfers
who bid fair to put Key West on
the golfing map:
Gene Witzel, Navy Champion.
and Joe Lopez, Jr., son of the
local professional recently return
ed from the Dixie Amateur
tourney in Miami where Gene
captured the second flight title,
shooting even par golf for the
tourney. Young Lopez won his
first round match and then was
eliminated in the second when
a lost ball off the tee cost him a
crucial hole.
,Witzel shot a one under par, II,
in the final round to take the
title. Due to be transferred soon
to the USS Robinson. Witze1 who
is a Chief Yeoman. says that he
would like nothing better than to
join the ranks of the pros when
he retires in seven years. He is
but % years of age and with the
brand of golf he is playing, he
should make the grade. WitEel
will lead the local Navy team
against the Jacksonville Naval
Air Station linksmen here on
Saturday.
Gene told this Conch of the
fluke tee shot that cost Lopez his
match in Miami Saturday. He
said that Lopez was one down
with two to go, when he hit a
booming tee shot that was a
beauty. But, the ball hit a tree
