'i East Germans Escape to the West During Xmas Holidays

BERLIN lR - Four young men escaped from East Germany to West Berlin Wednesday night, bringing to IA the number of suc- cessful escapes reported during the Christmas holidays.
 \ 26-year- old man climbed unobserved across the 8-foot-high wall on the border of the Amerl- can sector borough of Neukolln.
 Three men, 19 to g, forced their way through the barbed wire on the British sector border with East Germany. An East German border guard spotted them and set off a flare. But they reached safety.
 The biggest group to escape con- sisted for four adults and four chil- dren in a bus that rammed through the barriers at the Autobahn checkpoint of Babelsberg, just on the outskirts of West Berlin.
 The owner of the bus, Hans Weidner, 40, a war cripple who walks painfully on crutehes, had planned the escape for six months

Old Form
Equipment
On DisPIoy

The Montgomery County
Fair, always a big hit, will
have a unique exhibit this
year. 1t will be a fabulous
collection of old farm machinery
and household items used on the
farm of yesteryear. The collec-
ton, which is sponsored by the
Montgomery County Fair. Old
Farm Machinery Committee,
the Montgomery County Histor-
ical Society, the extension serv-
ice of the University of Mary
land and the Department of
Agriculture, will be displayed in
a huge tent and outside area on
the Fair Grounds, and will, of
course, be free of charge, to
anyone on the Grounds.
Among the exhibits Of I'm.
usual interest will be an old
slave pillow which was hand
made and was believed to have
been used in the Sandy Spring
area of Montgomery County
over 100 years ago. The wealth
erbeaten old pillow has a ring in
the end of a beam through
which a pole was inserted and
then by means of ropes was
pulled by field hands.
Another device on exhibit
will be a handmade corn plant
er which is believed to be the
first automatic corn planter or
drill" made in this country. It's
inventor was an early and dis
tinguished Montgomery Count
an, Edward Stabler, who lived
in Sandy Spring from 1874 to
1883. Stabler was a noted in
ventor and foremost engrav.
er of the infant United States.
He engraved the Great Seal of
the country and the first seal
of the State of Maryland.
The two items, as well as
several other handmade farm
Implements, such as a hand
made measuring wheel used
for determining acreage of
fields, q handmade wooden
line marker used as guide In
blowing, and an unusually
rare Tedder fork that was
originally a double end fork
for spreading hay will be lent
to the Fair exhibit by the
Montgomery County Histor-
ical Society, Inc.

ture in honor of its Tooth An

brated in 1862 will furnish a

Cause of
Accidents

The involvement of drink
ing, youthful drivers and ped
estrians In fatal accidents rose
sharply in the first half of this
year as comparedwith the same
period last year.
This was revealed In study
of accident experience made by
the Delaware Safety Council at
the request of Governor Ell
bert N. Carvel. Among the facts
brought out In the study are
these:
|. Pedestrians we're in
volved in II fatal accidents in
the 1862 period as compared
with 2 in the same period of
1861 - an increase of 450
per cent.
2. Youthful drivers were in
volved in 20 fatal accidents in
the first half of this year; only
6 in the first half of last year.
The increase is 233 per cent.
8. Drinking was found to be
a factor In 10 fatal accidents
in January to June 1862 period;
IL was a factor in S fatal ac-
cidents in January to June 1861
The increase was 220 per cent.
A. Speed was found to be a
factor In fewer accidents this
year than last. In the first half
of 1862, speed was cited as a
factor in only 5 fatal accidents
as compared with 9 in the same
period the year before. The de-
crease was A per cent in the
face of sharp increase in total
fatal accidents. But speed is

Advance Post
Time at
Fair Hill

Post time for the Fair Hill
race meet scheduled for Samr-
days September 8 and is, has
been advanced to 2:30 p.m.,
Daylight Saving Time, accord
ing to an announcement from
William dupont, Jr., over whose
estate in Cecil County, Mary
land, the races are held each
year. This is the first change
In post time in many years,
and Mr.. dupont has made the
advance In dime In response
TO requests from racegoers who
believe that traffic congestion
will be reduced by the earlier
time.
Since pari-muuel betting
prevails, the earlier post time
for the first race automatically
means that the Daily Double will
open earlier this year. E. |.
Uim) Langford, the Fair Hill
mutuels manager, has sugges-
ted a one o'clock opening, but
this remains to be officially
confirmed. Mr.. Langford's
thought about the early Daily
Double opening is based on the
fact that there is activity on
each of the Saturday mornings
when the races prevail In the
afternoons. On Saturday, Sep
tember s, beginning at 9 a.m.,
there will be a Cattle Show, and
on September 18th beginning at
$3.50 am. there will be a horse
show. Since many of the people
who attend both these morning
events do not leave the grounds,
the early Daily Double opening
is believed to be convenience.
The races will again be run
for the benefit of the Union Hos
pital In nearby Elkton, which
last year derived a benefit of
$9502. On each of the two af-
ternoons there is a six-race
program consisting of both jun
ping and flat races. !,

Frozen Food
Keeps Fresh
Better at 10

New evidence nderlines the
need for storing frozen food at
zero degrees to retain fresh
eating qualities.
Katie Thomas, Kent county
home demonstration agent, re-
ports a study recently COM
pleted shows that temperatures
above zero degrees con-
siderably reduce storage life
of frozen foods.
AS might be expected, the
higher the temperature above
zero, the greater the toll In
frozen food quality. A days
storage life is used up for
each day food is stored at
zero. One day at 10 degrees
consumes eight days time, and
at 20 degrees Sc days storage
are used up.
Quality losses accumulate
from storage below zero
degrees, Mrs. Thomas advises.
Feeling a package to see If 1t
is hard-frozen is not a re-
liable guide to quality. The
package could have been thawed
and refroZen.
What happens to food stored
at temperatures about zero2
Frozen peach slices brown,
strawberries discolor, and
cherry skins brown and toughen.
Changes In strawberry flavor
may be detected within a day
or two of storage at 30 degrees
F. Vegetables loose flavor, col
or, and Vitamin C. Green snap
beans darken, turn olive, then
brown. Color changes In snap
beans appear after three days
at 30 degrees F.
Shoppers should shoulder
some responsibility for quality
of frozen food purchases, says
Mrs. Thomas She advises them
TO buy only from freezer cabin
cts maintained at zero, to sell
ect frozen food last and get it
home fast. Ask that frozen foods
be placed in freezer bags or
double paper sacks.
