CRAB CRl'MIKR SOl.OHT TO SAVE KIHIIKKIF.S MELBOURNE, Australia Wl Crabs are menacing the livelihood of 200 fishermen here. Thousand of spider-crabs, many of them live feet from claw to claw, invaded Comer Inlet and Port Phil lip Bay. In some places they are said to be three feet thick on the bottom of the sea and hare destroyed every bit of fish food and sea growth. The government has been V&ked to provide the fishermen with a heavy roller to crush the crabs in shallow water. It is thought that the man gled remains would attract other crabs to the spot and the roller eventually might wipe out the menace. nOUSEKECPINO TIPS Fresh orange Juice poured over diced fruits or melon balls make a delicious ainxurier cocktail.

In sweeping to victory In the re cent New York state women's tour nament over the long, trap and wood Infested Ptandome golf club course, the former champion shot four days of the most sensational golf of her career. Perhaps hers was the greatest series of rounds ever shot by a wo man. Her game at razor edge, Helen com pletely outclassed a field that In cluded some of the sport's finest shot-1 makers.

For the first time In three years Coach Heartiy "Hunk" Anderson will deal almost exclusively with foot ball candidates who never came In contact with Knute Rockne, the great Viking master of the gridiron. Neither the advantages of Rockn'a teaching nor the disadvantage of un fair comparison with Rockne a meth ods can assist or bother the com mander of the "fighting- Irish." Be will be on his own.
