Today he should be some-
where In South Carolina.
Maybe between Bull Island
and Georgetown. Louis Prima
and his wife are sailing their
brand-new boat the long way
home. They left New York a
week ago for New Orleans.
Mr.. Prima is quite a man.
A dozen years ago he had a
big band and a big following.
He sang Angelina" and "Oh
Marie" and made a fortune.
Then the big bands died. For
q number Of years Louis and
Judge Crater we're missing.
Then he got a small COM
bination and did q week at
Norfolk. Va. Out front one
night he saw a girl dancing.
She looked like an Indian
princess. Her mouth pouted,
she never smiled, her hair
was as straight as the road
to perdition and twice as
dark.
LOUIS LIKED HER. He
was introduced. Her name
was Dorothy Keely Smith.
She worked as secretary to a
contractor, but she sang with
a small local combination
when they could get bookings.
Mr.. Prima, who falls in love
with the subtlety Of q ton of
coal going down q chute, fell
for the fourth--and probably
final-time Of his life.
Keely Smith won a job.
And a husband. At the Sa-
hara. in Las Vegas. they sang
in a lounge. To back them
up they had Sam Butera and
the Witnesses. They did well.
They earned enough to have
two daughters. Toni Elizabeth.
who is now 4, and Luanna
Frances, 2.
Mr.. Prima is posseSSive.
When he's in love he wants to
control everything about his
bride. Keely likes a man like
that. So life has become a
ball to these two. The dead
pan Indian princess insists,
loudly, that Louis is the chief
IN the wigwam and what he
says goes--although he is
sornethimeS panied to find
that if he blows so cents on
q new plastic yo-yo, he gets
dark looks.
Three weeks ago he asked
permission to buy a 42-foot
Chris-Craft. Keely thought
about it. You can have it."
she said. provided that I
don't have to like it." Mr..
Prima is hardly an intellec-
tual. and it took a little time
10 figure out what the FORE
man meant.
He bought the first boat
that could be delivered in a
week. One man worked
nights lettering MY Keely"
on the stern, and If you saw
the stern you would hardly
be flattered If your name was
Keely. However Louis Prima
meant well. He always does.
Last Thursday they took of
at dawn. He and / sat talk
ing boats in the Hampshire
House. I am convinced that
Mr.. Prima loves boats with a
deep and everlasting passion.
When he talks about them
his thick lips fall apart, his
broad nostrils dilate like blue
bells in a summer breeze.
What he doesn't know
about the technical side of
boats would fill a big set Of
books. Years ago, when he
ran a small boat through a
canal lock, a man yelled
down, moor that boat" Louis
heard him and ran back in
side to look up the word moor
under the ms"
He should reach New Or
leans, or Madagascar, around
June 10. The children have.
gone on ahead. and they will
be waiting at the dock with
Grandma Prima. Grandma
is Italian and used to run a
grocery store on st. Peter
street. His father sold bottled
soda. The Primas are from
Sicily and they wanted to
have a musician in the family.
What they had in mind was
q concert violinist. What they
now have is a hoarse-voiced
man who plays hot jazz on

Martha should recognize

Freezing Sweet Corn

Freezing, when properly done, is
good way to preserve sweet corn,
county home demonstration agent
Frances Shoffner says.
Corn retains more of its original
flavor and nutritive value frozen
than when preserved any other
way.
Select only high quality corn.
Freezing does not improve corn
and may magnify its undesirable
characteristics, so avoid over or
under ripe.
Remove the husks and silks and
wash the ears in clean, cold water.
Discard any ears that are injured
or bruised.
All corn should be blanched be-
fore freezing so that it will retain
it's original quality and flavor.
Place about eight ears into five
quarts of boiling water for about
four minutes. Then cool the ears
quickly by plunging them into cold
water. Make sure the cobs as well
as the corn cool sufficiently.
If you wish to remove the corn
from the cob, do this after blanch-
ing.
After cooling, drain thoroughly
and pack. Make sure the contain
ers are moisture-vapor-proof.
Store at zero degrees or lower
For more information on freez-
ing vegetables and fruits, call Miss
Shoffner at the Agricultural Sub
station, Georgetown 1853.

A CRASH CANCER PROGRAM

Arthur Godfrey and Senator Richard L.
Neuberger recently appealed for "crash"
program in the fight against cancer, before a
Senate subcommittee. Both suggested that
the crash program be inaugurated in honor
of the late John Foster Dulles, who was a
victim of that disease
A crash program on cancer, as suggested,
would be in order, and it is interesting to
note that the chairman of the subcommittee,
Senator Lister Hill (D-Ala.) welcomed the
idea when it was suggested before his COM
mittee.
Cancer, of course, is not the greatest
scourge on the health scene. However, it
/strikes with such rapidity, and so often
among those who have just attained high
degree of value and training, that it robs
the nation of many highly-gifted and needed
men and women. The same is true about heart
disease
Mental disease, which exacts the biggest
toll of all in the United States, is certainly
worthy of everyone's attention, although re-
adjustment and cure of this widespread dis
ease has registered more progress in recent
years than efforts to control or cure cancer.
President Eisenhower has asked for some
$75,000,000 during the next fiscal year for
the Cancer Institute which is operated by the
National Institute of Health. The House of
Representatives increased this amount by
some $8,000,000 and the suggestions men,
toned above, in this editorial, would add
many millions in addition for "crash" pro-
gram on cancer.
Even considering the fact that the bud
get is tight, that there are other diseases
which are equally as costly, or more, than
cancer, and admitting the fact that progress
cannot be bought" by money, we think the
crash program on cancer is good idea, and
should be adOnted

SeLfChOsen Diet Plans
Often Lack Nutrition
BY CYNTHIA LOWRY
(P1 NeWsfoatures Writer

The average American woman,
who sticks pretty close to her own
weight control diet, probably takes
too many of her daily calories in
the form of sweets, bread and fats.
This was disclosed in new stu
dy of "self-chosen" diets of some
$50 Illinois and Nebraska women,
who measured and recorded their
normal food intake over a seven
day period.
All were requested to follow
their usual eating habits, ranging
between 1900 and 2,100 calories
day-more for the active younger
woman, less for the older ones.
The study was joint project Of
home economics experts of the Uni
versities of Nebraska and Illinois.
Their findings coincided generally
with other studies made in other
areas of the nation in the past year.
Among other things it indicated
that women, If they are short
changing themselves on nutrients,
are likely to go light on calcium,
found in milk. and thiamine, rich
in pork and whole grain products.
They are least likely to ration
themselves on protein; ascorbic
acid and Vitamin A, found in other
meats, green and yellow vegetables
and citrus fruits.
Although about IL per cent of the
women were decidedly over weight,
their favorite calorie-container was
sweets and desserts, 23 per cent of
their total diet. And more than SO
per cent of their daily calories were
accounted for in sweets, table and

lot IL possible. Buy them on the
right side of a well-drained and
growing city or town. Every COM
munity has it's growing and most
aristocratic" portion. Start out
with the prestige of living in the
right section with the best neigh
bors,. who own their homes.
Advantages of "COIlege Towns
Personally, if my wife and
were a young couple, all else being
equal, we would settle in a "eol-
lege town" There are nearly SOC
scattered throughout the nation
These small cities and towns have
especially good families and attrac-
tive atmosphere. These always
have concerts and lectures which
you can attend If you can find
such a community on a lake or
river, which will give you employ
ment in the line for which you are
best fitted, this may be the place
to settle.
What about the subdivisions
which are springing up from Rich
mond southwark to Florida and
from Atlanta westward to Texas,
New Mexico, and Arizona? Many of
these are attractive, but before
buying see with your own eyes
what you get for your money. In
sist upon good drainage, a fire
proof built house of sand blocks
which is also termite proof. Visit
several subdivisions, before you
buy. Spend at least a month look
ing about in the state which you
select. One more thought: Buy a
house near enough to. a hotel or
restaurant so that you can walk if
you wish. to get out for a meal.
