Man Who Won National

SHOT WHILE PROWLING
SAN DIEOO, Cal., Aug. 38. (UP)
One year ago today, Navy Aviation
Cadet William R. Stsggs was perhaps
tne moat envied man In America.
He was handed a 100,000 check,
grand prim In a national puzzle
solving content, which assured him
fame and fortune at the age of 34.
Today there is little evidence of
Btaggs sudden wealth. There la no
palatial mansion, no glistening
llmouslno, or other examples of over
night riches In the Stagg household.
There la, however, a neat bank ac
count for "security and old age."
The Staggs, William R., his 33.
year-old wife, and 17-day-old daugh
ter Lu Elian, still rent their modest
bungalow on B avenue, still drive
the second-hand Ford they bought
, with part of the winnings, and still
live on a navy cadet'a antary,
Life Unchanged,
"The $100,000 has not changed
our lives," Mrs. Stages said. "You
ee the prize was split five ways,
according to an agreement Bill made
with four other cadets. Then, too,
the government got some of It In
taxes, which reduced It considerable.
"It did do one thing," she added
shyly. "It enabled Bill and ma to
get married and raise a family."
The Staggs" share of the prize la
safe In annuities, where It will be
used for Lu Elian's education and
ner parents' security In later life.
"We still get fan letters," Mrs.
Btaggs said, "but fortunately It la
nothing like It was. Thank goodness
people have forgotten us. Oet-rlch'-qulck
schemes and promoters from
all over the world came our way.
For e67,00O we could have our choice
of oil wells, gold mines, diamond
making formulas and systems guar
antees, to break the bank at Monte
Carlo.'
Job for Year
Btaggs still has another year of
erviee In the navy and then he
"will have to start looking for a
Job." Early In September he expeots
o be transferred to Penw-oln. pia.,
as a navy aviation Instructor. His
wife hopes It will be "In ground
school."
When they do leave, the Btaggs
will carefully remove from the wall
a framed diploma signifying one
William R. Btaggs graduated from
the University of Illinois school of
engineering class of 1034.
uiose inspection will reveal the
diploma was not laaued until Sep
ember, 10S7. The reason: Engineer
lng Student Staggs was so broke that
not until he received the 1100,000
award could he afford to pay the
u necessary to receive his diploma.
That. Btaggs said, was the first and
most Important purchase made with
the prize money.
HOOD RIVER, Aug. 38. (UP)
District Attorney John Baker said
today that Wllber "Lefty" Walters,
shot and critically wounded by polios
early today, will be charged with
burglary.
Two shots were fired Into Walters'
body when he started to flee after
being caught by Patrolmen Stanull
and Osborn entering the bedroom of
the 13-yearold daughter of Ernest
Barclay.
Walter Is 38. the son of a prom
inent Hood River family. Several
unsuccessful attempts to enter the
room were reported by Chief of Police
Olen R. Bloat, who detailed the two
officers :o remain Inside the home
each night.
The Identity of the Intruder was
not known until after the officers
examined the prone man after the
shooting. Walters, who had a half
pint of ether In his pocket, was ea'.d
by police to have admitted the
earlier attempts to enter the room.
The officers were waiting early this
morning when a flashlight gleamed
in tne girl's window. Walters en
tered the bedroom and was chal
lenged. He ran toward a door and
was shot by Stansell.

These are the days when marketln;
Is a pleasure. Fruit and vegetable
stands fairly cry out to us In their
beauty. Tiny round radishes, illver
sklnned. onions, long green stalks of
asparagus, the luscious red of toma
toes set us to painting pictures on
our tables. Berries, melons, liprlcota
and cherries fairly dance themselves
Into our market baskets.
Perhaps It's their freshness more
than all else, that provides the "lift"
for tired drab dinner plates, takes the
monotony from the customary salad.
So. to preserve that fresh-as-tlie-dew
appearance, for the sauces and dress
ings which accompany them, we
should look for freshness as well as
fine flavor.
Mayonnaise for Instance, the queen
of dressings for vegetables hot and
cold, for the fruit salad plate how
little thought we give to Its freshness
as we reach for a Jar on our grocers'
shelves. "Garden-fresh" Is the per
fect mayonnaise and "Oarden-fresh"
you'll find Durkee's to be. Made of
fine fresh Ingredients, a treasured old
recipe and more careful blending
than we with fork or beater could
ever give It at home that's Durkee'

for the freshness of our summertime
fruits and vegetables.

CONTROL OF FOOD
BY GOVERNMENT IS
LONDON (DP)n Tlrtuat na.
tlonallzstlon of the food Industry of
Oreat Britain and the creation of
boarda to ensure low prices In the
Interest of public health are advo
cated In an unususl document which
haa been drawn up by a body of
eminent scientists and public ad
ministrators who have been study
ing the crave effects of malnutrition
In the country.
The memorandum. Issued by the
Committee Against Malnutrition,
points out thst the majority of peo
ple of Oreat Britain at present can
not afford to buy certain essential
foodstuffs. I
- wwmua, wiv vi-ienbisis IS J,
should be established under the con-
vw ui iHDoniiDiB cKDinn mini-.
tor to control prices In such a way
aa to lnaura sunnltea whleh M
at present ensured by the operation
or ine law of supply and demand.
The boards also would market
these supplies through publlo con
cerns, thus ensuring low prices and
good quality. '
It la argued that a steadily rising
demand for foodstuffs would eacour
sge the producers to be much more
enterprising.
Assistance by loans and subsidies,
controlled supplies and prices for
fertilizer and fodder materials would
encourage producers to devote at
tention mainly to dairy, egg, fruit
and vegetable farming, and this
would open the way for the Impor
tation of wheat, sugsr and such like
foodstuffs from countries where they
are more economically produced.
It also la advocated that the gov
ernment"mske Itself responsible for
free dinners fo; all school children.
The memorandum concludes:
"This Is a question of nstlonal
Importance. We trust thst from now
onward all who have the nstlonal
welfare at heart will begin to dis
cuss how the problem shall be solved.
Clearly the solution Is not a simple
one. But out of the conflict of ldess
there should soon srise some theory
of national progress In nutrition that
will gain wide public acceptance."
Among the famoua scientists con
tributing to the memorandum were
Dr. Julian Huxley, secretary of the
Zoological society; w. E. Le Gros
Clark, Oxford professor of anatomy;
A. St. O. Huggett, professor of phys
iology at London university; Sir F
Oowland Hopkins, professor of bio-'
chemistry at Cambridge university,
and V. H. Mottram, dletette expert
of London university.
