Vikings Defeat Mustangs The appearance of the Mus tangs at the Umatilla game Fri day, January 31, gave no inkling of the type of ball they were to play on Saturday against Con don.

The Vikings hit an important 7 for the same per iod. During the fourth quarter, the Mustangs made a return bid but could not put through enough to overcome the Vikings who still continued to basket the greater number of counters.

Zelma Reigle, Oregon State college food marketing special ist, reminds shoppers to watch for specials that feature corn by the can or by the case. Canned corn is a big help, she says, to working women who want to cut down on cooking time prepara tion and yet serve well balanced meals. To help food buyers get greatest returns from their money these buying hints are suggest ed: If your family likes corn, and you have extra storage room, buy a 24 -can case. The price per can is less, and it's on hand when you need it. It keeps well on the pantry shelf or in a dry storage space. Serve corn in various ways for better meals, she sug gests. Corn chowders, fritters and casseroles are tasty ways to satisfy winter appetites. The 16-to-17 ounce can, size No. 303 (2 cups) Is a recommended family-size buy with 4 to G serv ings. Smaller size cans, 12 ounces and 8 ounces, are sug gested for smaller families or for ingredients in bread or muffins. Reason for the surplus of can ned corn is explained in in creasing acreage of sweet corn planted last year for processing, plus favorable weather condi tions for harvesting. The crop for processing was V2 times greater than it was two years ago. Among canned corn plentifuls is Oregon's Golden Cross Bantam, popular for its tender sweet fla vor. OSC tests show that its processed quality is superior to midwest varieties. 0 Mr. and Mrs. William Labhart left Sunday for Seattle to attend the funeral of Labhart's uncle. They returned yesterday.

State Doubles 1955 Grain Inspections Export grain inspections by the state department of agriculture during the last six months of 1956 more than doubled this work for the same period a year earlier. Export inspections from Oregon were 37,835,352 bushels and 16,- 122,088 bushels during the respec. live six months, according to the semi-annual report of the depart ment's grain inspection division.
