Rosenberg Attorney
Says Juror Rejects
CIemency Petition
By the Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK, Feb. 20.-A juror
in the case of the Rosenberg
sentenced to death as convicted
atom spies-has refused to sign
q clemency petition in their be-
half.
Emanuel H. Bloch, attorney
for Ethel and julius Rosenberg,
said last night three members
of the husbands family recently
went to see the juror, whose
name was not disclosed.
The three Rosenbergs who
approached the juror were julius
mother, Sophie; sister, Ethel,
and brother. David. They were
rebuffed, Mr.. Bloch added.
Attorney Sees No Wrong.
The attorney said he saw
nothing wrong" with discussing
the sentence with jurors so long
as the petitioners avoided argu-
ing merits of the case itself.
The jury found the RoSenbergs
guilty in 1851 of conspiring to
transmit atomic secrets to Rus
STA. Federal Judge Irving r.
Kaufman sentenced the pair
to death.
The Rosenbergs appealed up
to the Supreme Court and were
turned down all along the legal
line. On February II, President
Eisenhower refused to grant
clemency.

between themselves and persons
outside the prison with the idea
of publishing such memoranda
in book form.

such a publication would be
written by the Rosenbergs or by
some one in their names.

AR Force SCOTS at Nays Space Suit

A Navy announcement on the

brought an Air Force retort to-

abandoned it as being too cum

'It's a true space suit all
right" an Air Force spokesman
said. But he cast cold water on
the Nays claims that it had
come up with anything particu-
larry new. The Navy principle
was first used by Wiley Post in
the 1930s, the air spokesman
remarked.
'Tne AIR Force suit, adopted
several years ago in place of the
version the Navy has adopted, is
called the IT,. It was announced
last October and is described as
a partial pressure suit which
turns on automatically when
cabin presentation is gone.

QUICK DESSERTS

MRS. NJ. o., Washington
To the lady asking about
quick, no cooking desserts, I
have a few to offer:
Gingerale soda. Put two or
three small scoops of ice
cream into a sherbert glass or
fancy drinking glass. Add
enough gingerale to almost
cover. Add more ice cream
to fill, then more gingerale to
, to have a soda consistency.
Top with a cherry. Best If
eaten with a spoon. I prefer
vanilla, black walnut or but
tered peacan ice cream since
these, are not too rich.
Fruit whip: For this I use
one or two large-sized jars
of strained baby fruit. First
beat four to six egg whites
until stiff. Add / tablespoon
Of sugar to sweeten slightly.
Next add the fruit puree and
mix well with the beaten egg
whites. Put in custard or
sherbert' glasses and chill. I
suggest using prunes, apple
sauce. apricots. pears or COM
binations Of these. Sprinkle
nutmeg or cinnamon over the
pruneS. Top others with
cherry or canned fruit (diced).

REWEAVING.

mrs. X. p. p, Falls Church.
First congratulations to
Mrs. D. r. L. on her forth
coming move to San Fran
cisco. It's a wonderful. ex-
citing place to live!
Since you'll be going there
in summertime, don't make
the mistake of having all your
warm clothes packed away.
Some one accustomed to
Washington summers could
well-nigh freeze in those ocean
breezes. And throw away
your mothballs. Your blank
cts will see year-around serv-
ice.
The most suitable location
for a home would depend
largely on the section of San
Francisco where your husband
will be working. If, for in
stance, he's to be at the Pre-
sidio, that's just a quick
whoosh across Golden Gate
Bridge into SauSAlito and
other Marin County towns, a
most delightful area in which
to live. There are flowers
everywhere. big redwood trees
all around and q marine view
from almost every house.
Unless there are some
special circumstances in your
case. I wouldn't recommend
Oakland. It's a big city like
San Francisco, and commut-
ing can be a wearisome and
expensive thing. Incidentally,
there are toll charges on both
bridges-the Golden Gate
Bridge to Marin County, and
the Bay Bridge to Oakland.
The peninsula probably Of
fers more Of the things you're
looking for in a home. Good
highways with recently COM
pleted freeways, have cut driv-
ing time way down, and there
are no tolls to pay. AS you
go south from San Francisco
the climate gets milder, and
people get more enjoyment
out Of working and playing in
their yards. San Mateo is
about as far as we'd want to
go for daily committing to San
Francisco, though some live as
far as San Jose and claim it
isn't a bad drive. San Mateo
has good homes and schools,
and a number Of suburban
branches of the city stores.
Good luck!

A FEW IDEAS.
KILN?

mrs. J. c. H., AlerondriG)
To Mrs. II. T., whose pies
boiled over-juSt put a sheet
Of aluminium foil under the pie
pan. put mine on the rack
beneath so the heat can cir
culate under the pie. II the
pie boils over on the foil, sprin-
kle some salt on the foil so the
burned juice will not smell up
your kitchen.
I have found that storing
seldom used silver pieces in
plastic bags-alwayS use new
bags for this purpose-will
keep them from furnishing.
Press out as much air as pos
sible when placing article in
bag. twist top and close with a
rubber band. Since no air can
get to article, it can't tarnish.
Besides you can tell at glance
what is in the bag. I use them
for so many things, such as
storing sweaters for the sum-
mer. keeping freshly laundered
collars and cuffs clean and un-
Wrinkled in the drawer (slip a
piece Of cardboard under the
collar and cuffs) and ever so
many other things.
Some one wanted to know
how to keep rugs from skid
ding: Either paint on a rub
berized base or buy a product
sold in most variety stores
that is plastic and looks like
R-inch-mesh chicken wire. It
is wonderful.
Mrs. S. H. E. wanted to know
about building a small boat
and I would like to tell her
that my two boys made one
two years ago when they were
IA and IL years old. With
very little help from their
daddy they assembled a l2-
foot skiff which we ordered
from a kit manufacturer Il
will be glad to tell her the
name Of the company II she
will get in touch with me).
The boat has been used a great
deal and we carried it on the
top OF the car from Ell Paso,
Tex, when we moved here as
the Army won't move your
boat. We had no trouble, how
ever, and actually used it once
on the way when we stopped
to go fishing. We bought a
used motor and believe me it
has been worth every penny
1t cost. Our Skiff cost less
than $40 and is still as good
as new. I. too, hope some one
Will write IN about camping
locations as we love to camp
and. aren't very familiar with
this area yet.
Now ! have a request. Does
any one know of a kiln in the
Groveton area? I have a few
pieces that I would like to
finish but I have not located
any one with a ceramics kiln
near here.

REDSKINS LOSE FOURTH CAME AS
TWO PLAYERS ARE INJURED
by Jim RUddock

Port Clinton's Redskins took it
on the chin again Friday night at
Willard where the Railroaders
chalked up their first win of the
season over the Redskins, 81 to A.
It was Port Clinton's fourth con-
Secutive defeat after winning over
Bucyrus in the close opening game.
At Clyde next Tuesday and We'd
nesday, December 1890, Coach
Dick Selgo's cagers will compete
in the invitational tournament a
long with Oak Harbor, Sandusky
St Mary'S, and Clyde.
The Redskins played Fridays
game without the services of either
Alan Jensen or Bob TWarek. Jen-
sen suffered a reoccurrence of a
knee injury sustained in football
and Twarek still suffers from
foot infection.
JenSen'S loss was a severe blow
to the Redskins as he is fine
ballhandler, good rebounder and
the best shot on the team. He is
planning to return to the squad
after the holidays if his injured
knee returns to normalcy.
Coach Selgo had to change his
opening lineup and started the
game, with Jim Peltier, Marvin
Ohm, Clyde Enderle, Bob Wood
and Tony Fedely.
Willard grabbed the opening tip
off and jumped to an 80 lead be-
fore Port Clinton could sink its
first bucket. The first quarter then
settled down to a steady pace and
the Redskins gradually caught up
with the quarter ending 1910 in
favor of Willard. Thas was as close
as the Redskins came during the
game as the Railroaders outscored
the locals in the other three Pc
riOdS.
Both Clyde Enderle and Bob
Wood were banished to the show
ers via the personal foul route in
the third quarter. 1t was whistle
happy game as 49 fouls were
called and each team lost two
players.
In the preliminary game, the
Redskins dropped their fifth
straight but they came as close as
they have yet this year, losing 43
to 36. John Papcun was high scor-
er for the local reserves with Is
points and Roger Reed paced Will
