Marketing Services Eat
Into Consumers Dollar

When you buy vegetables that
are washed, trimmed and bagged
in cellophane, you are paying for
this service, reminds w. t. Meal
lister, farm economist at the Uni
versity of Delaware.
More services are being per-
formed than ever before in the
marketing of United States food
products. The result it that a
growing share of the consumers
food dollar is going into marketing
charges.
More and better packaging,
washing, selection, mixing, pre-
cooking and preparing of food pro-
ducts for the American table are
a continuing trend. These services
help explain a widening spread
between farm prices and retail
food costs, according to a recent
report on marketing and transpor.
tation released by the u. S. De.
partment of Agriculture.

Test Chemicals TO Control Brush
Along Drainage bitches

Test CnemlcalS no COnIrOl BRUSH
Along Drainage bitches
Strange as it may seem, they're
spraying brush in winter now.
There is a logical reason for this
off-season timing, according to DR..
Henry w. Indyk, research agro-
nomist at the University of Della
ware.
Inryk is working on project to
see which methods of chemical
brush control work best on the
banks of drainage bitches. This
consists of spraying various chem
icals on. test plots of hardwood
trees and pipes.
I'm the winter or dormant sea-
son, there is less danger of dam
aging agricultural crops through
wind drifting of the spray" the
agronomist explains.
The brush control work is CEN
tered in the southern half of the
state, where good drainage on
numerous acres of farm land de-
pends on an extensive open-ditch
drainage system. A right-of-way
along one bank of the ditch is
necessary to allow equipment tc
pass through for maintenance op.
erations.
/ If brush isn't kept down, it can
over-run the bank within five
years. The present means of con-
trolling plant growth-by axe and
brush hooks costly in time and
labor.
! Chemical control appears the
most effective and economical
method. The Delaware project
will test several brush killers such
as 2, AID, 2, 4, ST, GNU and Am
mate. These are being applied to
plots containing pines, naples
oaks, gums and shrubs. The ac-
tion of the sprays on the pines will
be noted particularly because very
little previous research has been

NEW YORK R-s'It seems to

been reading about out there in
Australia is trouble. The fans are
mad at Lewis Hoad because he's
tired of tennis and loafing, the
papers are riding Harry Hopman
because he got Hoad tired, and
everybody is sore because our
players ride around in cars and
eat three squares a day while
their boys have to live like buns.
"What I'd like to know is,
What's all this got to do with our
chances of winning the Davis Cup?
Didn't both our guys just get their
ears pinned back in a tournament
at Melbourne? Is Tony Trabert
ever going to be a real good tennis
player, or did he leave it in the
Navy?"
Hold on, we said, and let's take
up the matter one at a time. First,
they're always agitated about
something connected with tennis
in that country. It's their big
sport, and everything about it is
multiplied by 10 on their front

advised. They will be ready and

Douglass Sets
Yule Festival
At Stadium

The Yuletide Festival
sponsored by Douglass High
bids fair to be a gala occa-
sion.
Music by two bands will
set the stage for the aerial
fireworks and ground dis
plays. There will be fill the
air with music as well as
exhibit some tricky forma-
tions on the greensward at
the High School Athletic
field on the night Of Decem-
ber II.
The Dorsey High School band of
Miami will come down for the Fes-
tival. This musical aggregation has
ninety pieces and is recognized as
one of the outstanding high school
bands in Florida.
Of course Douglass Highs band
will be on hand to render the other
portion of the music section.
The main feature of this Yule-
tide festival, however, will be the
aerial fireworks and ground dis
plays with a Christmas theme. 1t
is felt that the fireworks will be a
novel attraction, particularly at
this season of the year, and will
do much to engender a true holi-
day feeling in youngsters as well as
oldsters.
With the tropical locale as a
backdrop- for the Yuletide Festival
the combination of Christmas mus
ic, band formations and aerial dis
plays should be an awe inspiring
event.
The Homecoming display was so
well received here that many IN
quiries were received at Douglass
about another exhibit. The Yuletide
Festival on the night of December
II is more or less by popular de-
mand.

OWNERS REJECT REQUEST
OF BALL PLAYERS

NEW YORK Up - The major
league owners rejected the most
important requests of the player
representatives at their joint meet
ing and at the same time gave
the minor leagues the expected
bruShoff.
The majors slammed the door
on all but a couple of minor re-
quests of the players such as ap-
proving mailing of contracts Jan.
Is instead of Feb. / and uniform
payment Of expenses in spring
training.
In explaining why the owners
turned thumbs down on the play
ers' demand for a boost in mini
mum sa,ary from $4,000 to $1,000
Commissioner Ford Frick who
presided at the joint session said:
"Such an increase would be a
pretty expensive item because in
the case of players sent down to
the minors the major league club
would have to continue to pay the
minimum salary"
Also vetoed was the request that
present restrictions on winter ball
participation be lifted.
The majors rejected an amend
ment by the minors restricting
broadcasts and telecasts Of big
league games within a radius of
so miles of each home city. The
owners however made an effort
to help the minors financially by
agreeing to pay minimum fees for
players brought up from class B
C and D leagues. They slso agreed
to pay part of the managers sal
ary and the spring training ex-
penses for clubs with which they
have working agreement.
The fees to be paid for work
ing agreements are: $4,000 to class

Those Other Dogs
Cant Be Zip

DENVER R-There's only one
Zip, Gov. Dan Thornton wants the
nice people of Denver to know,
and he's been found.
Zip, a golden retriever, strayed
from the governors quarters last
week but was recovered a few
days later after stories about him
appeared In the papers.
Trouble is there are more dog
gone dogs that look like Zip in
Denver than anyone knew. And
most of them have been brought to
Thornton's door by well-meaning
citizens the last few days.
One gent called with a golden
retriever under his arm yesterday.
Told the real Zip had returned the
caller told Thornton he'd taken a
taxi all the way across town to
return the pup. The governor dug
into his pocket and paid the cab
fare.
