CHICAGO, Aug. 20 (AP).-
A brigade Of bobby-soxers ap-
pears to have a stranglehold on
the women's AAU swimming
scene.
A pair of 16-year-olds from
Los Angeles, Carolyn House and
Sharon Finneran, and l5-year-
old Donna De Varona OF Santa
Clara, Calf, led the record
busting parade in the four-day
meet which ended yesterday in
the Portage Park 50-meter
olympic pool.
This trio, plus a group just
as young that either won events
or were pressing for first all
the time, can make Uncle Sam
rub his hands in glee at the
women's prospects in the 1864
Olympics in Tokyo.
Five world, five American
and two additional met records
were undercut in the splash
party. Only two events-the
100-meter backstroke and 100
meter freestyle-did not pro-
duce record efforts out of the
IA women's races.
Wins Freestyle Titles
Miss House won the freestyle
titles at distances Of 1900, 400
and 200 meters, repeating as
individual high-point perform
er with 26. She bettered the
world mark of 19:02.8 in the
1900 with 18:44.0; erased the
American record of 2:l5.5 with
2:14.6 in the 200. and smashed
the meet mark of 4:46.9 in the
400 with 4::45.3.
Miss Finneran bypassed the
listed world standard of 2:32.s
by churning the 200-meter but
terfly in 2.31:2, and did the
same in upsetting defending
champion Miss De Varona in
the 400-meter individual med
ley. Her time Of 5::25.4 dented
Donna's world listing of 5:34.5
Miss De Varona won two
titles, repeating in the 200
meter individual medley by
blasting her own American
mark of 1850 with 1888, an6
! beating defending champion
Nina Harmer Of Philadelphia

NEW YORK, June 80 (AP).
Wall Streets l2-year-old bull
market balloon burst in the
first half-year Of 1862.
This week some of the
wreckage was being salvaged.
The Associated Press Average
advanced TOO to 290.50, its
biggest weekly gain since the
week ended June IL, 1860,
when it rose 500. The Dow
Jones industrial average re-
covered 22.09 at 561 .28.
The past weeks recovery,
though the biggest gain in two
years, was midget-sized COM
pared with the giant fall from
December's historic heights.
Have we reached bottom2"
was still the question in Wall
Street.
1t recalled an answer given
during the 1929-1932 stock
catastrophe by Dwight Morrow
OF j. P. Morgan & Co.:
You cannot predict the bot
tom of a stock market until it
is over"
Statisticians have estimated
this springs decline involved
the loss of $3.50 billion in stock
values equal to about half of
the national debt.

Don't trust your sense Of

selecting a cantaloupe. True,
the blossom end of a ready

"A ripe cantaloupe will have
a fragrant, sweet odor. This
odor is a hint Of the sweet
and tantalizing flavor which
will be yours.
After selecting a canta-
loupe you will want to know
how to store it in the home.
Always wrap a ripe canta-
loupe in waxed paper, alumni

before placing it in the re-
frigerator.
If you prefer to buy a can
taloupe that is not yet ripe,
you can ripen the melon by
keeping it at room tempera-
ture for several days. Soft
spots on m elons do not
always affect the flavor, as
the defect may not have

flavor and aroma, however.

While the days are still
long, double your pleasure in
summer by joining the out
door eating fans.
Go west for your theme

if you're lucky enough to
have a backyard chef in the
family, turn over preparation
Of the main dish to him.
Chilled soups add an cpl
curean touch to the lunch or
dinner menu in hot weather.
And what could be easier to
prepare?
Canned condensed soups
need only a few hours In the
refrigerator to be properly
chilled and ready to mix with
cold water or cold milk.
Some can be served by mere
ly adding q garnish.
For a cocktail or appetizer,
try soup on the rocks" This
is condensed beef broth
poured undiluted over ice
cubes, with lemon peel added
"a quick refreshing pickup
which, incidentally, is low
caloried.
The pitcher and mugs In
today's picture are attractive
containers for chilled spiced
tomato soup or chilled beef
broth. But you can work out
your own color scheme.
For your salad, take adj
vantage of the convenience
Of a salad dressing mix over
crisp green's.
Dessert can be a summer
version Of a Christmas-time
favorite - minted ambrosia.
Fresh fruits combined with
flaked coconut take on a re-
freshing flavor when you add
a mint sauce. This can he
made by pouring boiling wa
ter over fresh mint sprigs
and letting it steep for five
minutes.
Barbecued pork sandwiches
are suggested for today's
piece de resistance. A white

sauce provides q tangy note.
