Historically speaking cumin
is one Of the herbs that pre-
dates the Christian era. In
the early days, long before
Christ was born, cumin was
used in lieu Of pepper by the
Romans because pepper was so
frightfully expensive. The
whole cumin seed Is the con-
sistency Of butter when it is
ground without extracting the
oil. When ground this way 1t
can be used as q spread for
bread, and. when spread on
Ry-Crisp or Fritos, it makes q
wonderful hor d'oeuvre.
BY the time of Christ the
whole cumin seed had in
creased in value to the extent
that it was considered as q
1.-THE by the Orthodox Jews as
were anise and dill.
"Woe unto you, scribes
and Pharisees. hypocrites!

omitted the weightier mat
tiers Of the law. Judgment.
mercy and faith: These
ought ye to have done. and
not to leave the other
undone."
Cumin, like so many of our
herbs, has q legend. In olden
days paleness was Q mark Of
scholarship. It was believed
that If one ate large quantities
, Of cumin seed 1t would cause
paleness. Many not too stu
dious young boys are reputed
to have drunk cumin seed oil
to make them pale and thus
impress their teachers who
were sterner as Of yore than is
oftentimes the case today.
For Oriental Cookery
The black cumin, which is
cultivated In India. Is prac-
tically unknown in the United
States. It Is used extensively
in Oriental cookery and Is one
Of the many herbs used In
making curry powder.
Today cumin Is popular In
Southern cooking and Is also
used extensively by the Span
ish and Mexicans In many Of
their native dishes.
Cumin may be grown In this
area and its seeds have O much
stronger flavor than the ones
put up commercially. Cumin
grows to q height Of 5 to 6
inches. The plant Is q delicate
one and requires careful culti-
walton.
Commercially the seeds are
used to flavor kummel and
creme de menthe. The oil Of
the cumin seed Is also used
today In many medicines.

l. Incompetence: General in

2. Arrogance: Habitual def

against authority, thumbing the
nose at good safety practices and
consistent over-estimation of
driving skill"
3. Ignorance: General lack of
knowledge in regard to car in

killer attitudes when licensing

tinue to rise.
2. Expenditures on housing
may be expected to begin rising
before the end of the year. There
is good underlying demand for
housing-the result of people
moving from cities into the
suburbs, Of rising incomes. of
the increasing size of families,
and of a demand for houses with
conveniences not found in most
older houses. And the lull in
business will reduce the short
age of mortgage money that has
been limiting the demand for
housing. Furthermore, the lull
itself, If it persists for some
months, will lead the Govern
ment to act to increase the sup
plies of mortgage money.
8. Wage increases will tend to
raise personal incomes and the
demand for consumer goods.
There is little realization of the
extent to which wage increases
have already been granted for

utilizing punt returns, pass inter-
ceptions and long runs from scrim-
mage to score five tOuchdowns and
add four extra points. The game
had the earmarks of a rout as
Seaford let at half-time by a "a

After the intermission, the
charges of Cy Miller and Carl Du-
gan completely dominated play for
the remainder of the game and
SeafOrd was unable to mount a
serious offensive threat. The Bucs.
flashing a well-balanced attack,
cut the deficit to two points with
six minutes remaining. Seaford
was unable to advance the ball
and was forced to punt. Milfords
attempt to move into scoring ter
ritOry was stymied by a penalty
and long loss on an attempted
pass play.
The Bucs were magnificent in
defeat and the squad is TO be COM
