CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO (AP). Trade in the grain
futures market was influenced last week
largely by notices Of intention to deliver
or lack Of them, and prices showed
little net change although both gains
and losses were rather broad at times.
Tenders of corn and sOybeans were
fairly liberal. Some Of them were re-
rendered as had been expected, but de-
liveries Of wheat were absent, also as
generally expected.
Trade In May contracts expires on the
2lst, and first delivery notices were Is
sued on Tuesday. They appeared to have
little or no weakening effect on the
trade, partly because a considerable
volume appeared to have been accepted,
at least Temporarily. However, brokers
noted that more liberal circulation could
beariSh consequences then.
a general trade opinion that supplies
in Chicago commercial positions may be
too. small to meet all requirements when
contracts become due. For that reason,
trade in May delivery was at least
moderately active most Of the time, with
all but the boldest spectators avoiding
a short position as much as possible
without Withdrawing from the trade en-
tirely.
At the close, wheat was V cent a
bushel lower to 70 higher than a week

COTTON

NEW YORK (APl. Prices of cotton
futures closed mostly lower last week
after having moved irregularly during
most OF the trading period.
At the close Friday active futures con-
tracts on the New York Cotton Ex'
change were up IS cents a bale to down
s2l5 from the previous week. The only
net improvement was recorded by cur
rent May contracts.
The action Of the market this week was
governed primarily by the vacillating
outlook for new cotton legislation. Other.
wise, the market tended to firm on the
prompt stopping Of May notices and
periodic short covering. II weakened on
selling influence by continued slow pay
ment.in-kind sales and quietness in the
goods market.
Exports in the week ended Tuesday
were estimated at 1900 bales, compared
with 1900 a week earlier and 1900 a
year ago

Dover AT Base To Get,
Delta Darts In July

1t. Col. Robert K. Fletcher
was commander of the 98th FlS
when 1t was activated at Dover
Air Force Base in March 1886
as a component of the Air De-
fense Command. Eventually, the
squadron was assigned to the
New York Air Defense Sector.
The 98th first served In this
sector when 1t was organized
with the 46th Fighter Inter-
ceptor Squadron under the
4728th Air Defense Groupat
Dover. Since 1886, it has oper-
ated continuously in this sector
except for a period from Feb
ruary 1859 until Aug. l, 1861
when it served in the Washing
ton Air Defense Sector.
The fighter unit flew F-89J
aircraft since its reactivation
until March 1889 when it re-
ceived the long-awaited F lob
"Voodoo" jet. The modern
Mcdonnell jet was a far cry
from the P-39 Bell Aircobras
flown when the squadron orig
inally formed. One reason for
this is its modern armament
of Falcon missiles and Genie
rockets.
Unlike its predecessors, the
supersonic Voodoo carried a
crew of two--pilot and radar
observer.

as the 95th Aeronaudcal Squa-
dron at Kelly Field, Texas. in
August 1917, and participated
In the St. Mihiel, and Meuse-
Argonne offensives at Verdun in
World War l. The unit was
deactivated In March 1919. Re-
activated in September 1912 as
the 95th Pursuit Squadron, it
was assigned to Harding Field,
La, and later to the European
Theater of Operations. 1t was
deactivated in September l945.
Acuvated again In November
1852, as the 95th Fighter In
terceptor Squadron. at Andrews
AFB, Md, it was placed under
the operational control of the
Washington Air Defense Sector
of the 26 Air Division.
The TWO squadrons will move
to their new bases with their
respective aircraft, equipment,
and direct support personnel.
Certain facility support people,
such as interior guards, will
not be involved in the move.
Both units will move approx
mately 20 aircraft. For Dover
the move will mean a loss of
officers since the F-l0o is
a single scatter. For Suffolk
County Airport, NY, there will
be an increase in officers, since
the F-l0l aircraft has a two
man crew.

Heart Fund
Short of
Goal; Kent
Gives $6,464

Proceeds from the fumd-rais-
ing campaign Of the Delaware
Heart Association have passed
the $3.50 mark--still about
$22, 900 short of the organiza-
lions goal.
DR.. David ]. Reinhardt, III,
president of the Association,
said that he is still hopeful
that the needed $l50,00O will
be contributed by June 80. the
date that the Heart Fund books
are officially closed.
The $4,000 goal represents
only slight increase over last
years proceeds, when Sl48, 900
was received.
Of the funds received to date,
about $50, 900 was contributed
to Heart Sunday volunteers and
by mail-ins from persons who
were not at home when the
volunteers called. A total of
5l,377.l9 was contributed to
volunteers, and an additional
$7,675.76 was mailed In.
This years. Heart Ball show
ed a substantial increase over
last years. Final accounting
revealed that Sill, ,567,00 was
raised through the charity
dance, compared to $3.50
raised last year.
Returns from Sussex County
to date total $l3, 459 .96. Kent
County contributions amount to
So, ,464.07.
DR.. Reinhardt emphasized
that the remaining S22, 900 is
needed by the Heart Association
to continue its significant pro-
grams in the field of research,
education and service.
He pointed out the prominent
role that heart disease occupies
in the Delaware health picture,
stating that diseases of the
heart and blood vessels are the
leading cause of death In this
state.
''h 1861, these diseases eau
sed 1858 out of 4,289 deaths
In Delaware" the Heart Asso-
citation president said. "This
figure indicates the scope OF
the job that lies ahead for US.
1t is a job that can only be
done If we have the whole
hearted support Of the citizens
of our state.
DR.. Reinhardt said that last
year more than 100000 per-
sons In the United States sue
cumbed to heart attacks and
strokes, and more than 200, :
600 to the other cardiovascular
diseases. This represents
more than 54 per cent Of all
deaths in this country during
the wear.

in protein.
Don't despair If you find that
the children cooked and colored
more eggs than they ate on
Easter Sunday, because there
are many ways to serve hard
cooked eggs. One Of the most
popular is deviled eggs--and
the variations are almost end
less. The basic method for
making deviled eggs is to slice
the hard-cooked eggs In half,
either lengthwise or, for var
iety, crosswise, and remove
the yolks. Mash yolks with a
fork and smooth into a paste
with mayonnaise or sweet or
sour cream. Season with salt
and pepper, and refill the
whites.
For variety, add any of these
ingredients to the egg yolk mix
ture: dry or prepared mus
tard, celery seed, paprika,
horseradish, chopped parsley,
grated onion, chopped green
or ripe olives, deviled ham or
anchovy paste.
Deviled eggs prepared with
any of these Filings take on
new flavor when heated In the
oven with a sauce. For this,
cover eggs with white sauce,
cheese sauce or mdiluteo
cream of mushroom or celery
soup, sprinkle with breac
crumbs, finely crushed potato
chips or grated cheese anc
place in a $50 degree oven for
about 20 minutes, or until
lightly Drowned.

Air Force announced on Fri
day the assignment of the 95th
Fighter Interceptor Squadron
from Andrews AFB, Maryland
to Dover AFB, and the move of
the 98th FIS from Dover to Suf-
folk County Airport, NY. The
moves of the TWO squadrons
will take place in July as part
of a widespread redeployment
of Air Defense Command units.
The net effect for the eastern
United States will be an in
crease In its air defense ca
pability.
The New York Air Defense
Sector commander, Brig. Gen.
Arthur C. Salisbury, at his Nc
Guire AFB, N. j., headquarters,
said. This increases our aid
defense capability consider
ably. We will now have two
F -l0l squadrons and TWO F LOO
squadrons, In addition to TWO
BOMARC squadrons, with which
to intercept unknown or hostile
aircraft far from the key tar
get areas in our sector. This
is extremely important as we
provide the air defense for over
rs million people and insure the
survival of over is per cent of
the nations industrial capa-
city,"
1t. Col. Franklin c. Grain,
present commander of the 98th
FIS will remain at Dover and
assume command of the incom-
ing 95th FIS. The 98th will
come under the command Of 1t.
Col. Robert Torpey after its
redeployment to Suffolk Coun-
~ airport.
The 95th Fighter Intercept

Defense
Driving
Best Bet
For Safety

A chain reaction ending with
an increase in highway acci-
dents is on the way, Delaware
drivers were warned yester-
day.
The coming of spring wea-
ther will boost the volume of
driving--and that will boost the
volume of accidents unless Del
awareans are prepared to
"drive defensively", said ].
lanes Ashton, manager of the
Delaware Safety Council.
''It is clear that an increas-
ing volume of traffic tends to
increase the hazards of being
on the streets and highways,
and greatly increases the need
to drive defensively," he said.
That means to take care not
to be involved in accidents
caused by the poor driving of
others, and to take care not
to cause any yourself. The OBJ
ject of defensive driving" is
to drive without having an ac-
cident.
This requires, Ashton ex-
planned, constant alermess
for the illegal acts and driv-
ing errors of other drivers and
the willingness to make quick
adjustments to avoid accidents.
1.-THE defensive driver does not
expect all other drivers to be-
have according to the rules or
to respond to a situation ex-
actly as he would. He is pre-
pared for reckless, illegal and
clumsy behavior on the part
of some other drivers.
Another important quality OF
defensive driving, the safety
official said, is the ability to
adjust to the special hazards
presented by unusual or chang
ing conditions in the type OF
road surface he is encounter
ing, or to unusual or changing
conditions of weather, the "a
mount of light, and the kind Of
traffic on the road.
Similarly a defensive driver
is able to adjust his driving
to the special hazards presented
