Comment1 On This and That By HARMAN W. NICHOLS United Pratt Featiw Wrier .'; Wishington (U.R) Jim Beard makes a fat living by eating and he can prove it. He weighs 260 pounds, - with out the ele phant blanket he wears for a sport coat. "Want to know -some tthing about fancy cook ing?"' he said as he tested his tonnage on office chair. harman hicnois I said I wasn't interested in - any $15 meals. How about the poor man s lunch pail?" "Well," he said ignoring the poor man, "if you can afford it and know how to cook, you ought to start off the day with some toast, half a dozen eggs, and maybe a big hamburger and some cold steak and some tea No milk, it's fattening. That menu should hold you until the first coffee break." The fat man said if you want to hold down the midriff, for lunch you should starve yourself witn half a sturgeon, a large platter of cheese and an egg dish and a large bowl of fruit. : Don't walk away from your bib hungry," Jim said. "You can have seconds, or the other half of the sturgeon." ' ' "About the working man's lunch . . .?" I asked.' I "Then for dinner," he said, "it is smart to have a few steaks cooked in brandy. And 21 Persons Injured As Trains Collide Cleveland (U.R) A.Penn sylvania Railroad train with 75 passengers aboard smashed into the rear of a slow-moving freight in yards outside Cleve land Friday, injuring 21 persons. " None was believed seriously hurt " although several persons were detained at hospitals for observation. maybe a couple or three baby chickens cooked with tarragon and white wine.v This, you must remember,- is a meal for two. And asparagus, cut in shreds and cooked for two minutes Some cheeses and some (mean ing a lot) of thin. pancakes. And some bananas, which you bake in their hides and then peel and cook in cognac." Jim was a good, and a fast talker, but I still was thinking about the working man. For the Working Man "Well," the fat lad said, "if you want to be plebian." According to the well known expert and "consultant" on cook ing who claims he was born in a kitchen, the lunch pail of the worker should contain: A large portion of beef, potato, onions and salt and pepper. This should be baked by mama ahead of time and tucked into a couple of hunks of Cornish pastry. "It's pretty good when cold," said the fat boy. "I've eaten it myself a couple of times when I was real hungry." If the pail is big enough, the expert added, it also should con tain some fruit and bread, and a thermos jug -of coffee, tea or wine, and any leftovers from the ice box. "I realize that doesn't sound like much," Jim said, "but a working man ought to take it easy at lunch time. He can let his belt out at the big meal at supper time." Bills in Legislature Salem (U.R) A measure to establish county, school boards with new powers is before the House after getting the approval of the Senate. Under the proposal, directors would be elected from zones within a county and they in turn would hire the county school superintendent. The new boards would super vise duties now handled by the superintendent, the district boundary board and budget board. The board would appor tion the county school fund on an equalized basis. But the local school districts would continue to control their own budgets. - Salem (U.R) The House has turned down a memorial asking Congress ' for a constitutional convention to place a limit on the taxing powers of the federal government.

Salem (U.R) The Senate dis cussed a measure to extend the capital mall area from Union street three blocks north to D street, then put the measure at the foot of the calendar which meant it would be the last mat ter up for discussion. Salem Republican colleagues Sens. Mark Hatfield and Lee Ohmart were en opposite sides of the argument. Sen. Hatfield led the fight for the extension while Sen. Ohmart said there was no logical reason, to tie up property that far north when it would not be used for at least 50 years if ever. fraction Firm Loses Bid for Abandonment Salem (U.R) Public Utilities Commissioner Charles E. Heltzel has denied the Portland Trac tion Company's petition to aban don its Bellrose and Oregon City interurban service. Heltzel found the company had made no real effort to attract and encourage increased patronage aside from providing dependable, service and buying some addi tional equipment. Heltzel said that while passen ger operations " have been con ducted at a loss each year, "the actual out-of-pocket losses are relatively, low." It was the second denial of a petition for abandonment. The first was in 1953. ' , Gordon Steele, president of the traction company, had no im mediate comment.
