Newspaper Page Texts Wartime Salt Settled To Satisfaction of Industry Washington (U.R) The pret zel bakers of America have been having a salt problem but they think they have it licked. This news was a highlight of the 15th annual convention, just concluded here, of the National Pretzel Bakers Institute. Theme of the convention was "The Miracle of the Pretzel In dustry," the miracle being the wy the industry has grown, ccording to Alex V. Tisdale fctftu Veronica Lake ' Rushed To Hospital Detroit (U.R) Actress Ver onica Lake, famous for her peek-a-boo hair style, collapsed early today and was taken to receiving hospital, where phys icians said she suffered a prob able coronary occlusion. Miss Lake, appearing here in the play 'The Little Hut," col lapsed in the lobby of her hotel. Police rushed to the scene and (ook her to the hospital, where Dr. Norman Goldston said the actress was suffering from an illness "of a serious nature." Miss Lake, film star of "Sulli van's levels," "Slattery's Hur ricane, and other movies, gave her name as Mrs. J. A. Mc Carthy. She and McCarthy, a New York song publisher, were married recently at Traverse City, Mich., where she was ap pearing in summer stock. She gave her age as 33. UO Inspection Team Takes To Stairways Portland (U.R) Thirteen members of a state education board inspection team found at least one thing wrong yesterday as they toured the new Univer sity of Oregon medical school teaching hospital.

GOLDEN DELICIOUS A hhl Cf SPITZ or ORTLEY Cello T Carrots L pkgs Problem of Pretzel Bakers of Pottstown, Pa., executive sec retary of the institute and editor of its monthly publication, The Pretzel Baker, Americans now eat 250,000,000 pounds of pret zels a year. The industry, he said, will do 580,000,000 worth of business in 1955. One of the more important events of this year's convention, according to Tisdale, was the re port of the institute's salt com mittee. Before World War II salt com panies supplied pretzel bakers with a special high quality coarse grained salt that stood up with out melting under oven tempera tures of 550 to 660 degrees. Salt Peopl Switch But during the war, the salt people switched to methods which produced a salt the pret zel bakers didn't like. For one thing the grains were too hard around the edges. They cut the cellophane bags, letting in air and moisture.' Well, the salt committee re ported, the salt makers are now making a salt, similar to the salt produced before the war, which is completely satisfac tory. There are some 90 pretzel manufacturers in the- United States. Twenty-eight, producing about 85 per cent of all U. S. pretzels, belong to the institute. The institute was honored at this year's convention by Swift and Co. which presented its cen tennial founders award of merit to the pretzel industry. The pretzel has come a long way since its origin back in the Dark Ages. The pretzel bender, an artisan of antiquity, is on his way out. His fate was sealed in 1933 when someone invented the pretzel tying machine. Pretzels are now made in a variety of sizes and shapes, in cluding the big boy or penny pretzel. The loop pretzel is in degenous to and flourishes only in Cincinnati, O., and environs. There also are poppyseed pret zels, rye pretzels, cheese pret zels, bald pretzels no salt, and pretzels containing vitamins or iron and other minerals. There are recipes for pretzel crumb crust pie, pretzel kabobs, and pretzel dunks. According to Tisdale, the pret zel was invented in 610 A.D. by a monk in the kitchen of a mon astery in ' Southern France or Northern Italy.

The monk called his invention "pretiola," a latin word meaning "little reward." The name got corrupted in Austria and Ger many to pretzel or bretzel. The pretiola was given to chil dren as a reward for saying their prayers faithfully, and to this day, Tisdale said, "children are still great consumers of pret zels." Sprayers Employ Balloons To Test Range of Sprays Kent, O. (U.R) Target prac tice with aerial balloons is train ing "troops" for the all-out war on tree disease and insect pests. To gain experience in esti mating the range of chemical spraying equipment, (D a v e y) tree experts here formed a bal loon ascension crew. This group sent up large, red, helium-filled balloons, each anchored at a different height, and fired at them with mistblowers, ma chines that send out a fine chemical spray. The firing practice was held at night, with spotlights following the mist blasts. ' Court Records POLICE COURT William Wesley Johnson, violation of basic rule. $10.

George (D-Ga.),' chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, in a dispatch ' written exclusively for the United Press, on the outlook for the Big Four talks at Geneva: "If a basis for agreement can be reached ... I am confident that we shall be on the threshold of an era of genuine peace, an era which will draw mankind closer together in common human ity rather than condemn us all to the fraternity of the damned." Thomas K. Finletter, former Secretary of the Air Force on administration attacks on "individual . Freedom" through the security program: "The invasion of basic American rights, although somewhat less extreme than it was a year ago. is still serious and American opinion should be aware of this state of affairs and should do something about it." Frank Russo, 30-year-old New Jersey egg candler after being told he had won $20,000 in the Irish Sweepstakes: "I'm so upset, I feel funny all over." A prosecution attorney at the Washington trial of Mrs. Kath erine Ann Haynes, accused of shooting her husband's 19-year-old mistress after he boasted of his infidelity: "I don't think he has a moral fiber in his body, but no matter how much this woman put up with, it can't justify a killing in cold blood." CIO President Walter P. Reuther when asked if rank and file union members would approve the unified CIO-AFL labor move ment: "If the rank and file had made the decision we would have had labor unity a long time ago." Francis Scott, 14, rescued from the waters of St. Andrews Bay by an Air Force crash boat, after spending three days oa a snake-infested island without food: "While I was out there drifting all over the place, I sort of prayed to the Lord just to put me on land." U.S. Rep, John M. Vorys (R.-O.) comparing the present Wash ington climate with that of the Truman administration, at a Columbus, O., Republican dinner:; "It is out of style to give them hell anymore." Scope Still Used To Log Golden Gate Ship Traffic San Francisco (U.R) Ed Mc Carthy, 63 and gray-h aired, swung the big, brass-bound tele scope into position and squinted through the 50-power eyepiece. "Powell River . . . three-thirty-one p.m.," he said. Across misty San Francisco Bay, the Powell River, outward bound for Vancouver ; to bring back newsprint, chewed at the. choppy waves, a "bone in its teeth," speeding with the. ebb tide through the Golden Gate. The time noted by McCarthy was "official" and would hold water in any maritime court. De partures and arrivals of vessels through the Port of ' San Fran cisco are marked by their cross ing of the imaginary line from the Marine Exchange waterfront lookout on Meigg's Wharf to the tip of Alcatraz Island. 106 Years ''We've been doing this for 106 years," McCarthy explained af ter logging the cargo ship. "Since the gold rush of '49 our watch ers have seen the Sea Witch, the Flying Cloud, the sails, give way to steam and wood to steel hulls. We've logged in and out every ship in all that time. "I started with the Marine Ex change the year of the big fire in 1906. I was a kid, you know, on the wild waterfront, and this was a good job. They can talk about wireless and radio tele phone all they want, but visual reporting of ships still's got 'em all beat. Even Navy ships, which use the Golden Gate bridge to mark their arrival and departure time from the port, are logged by the Exchange. ' The simple business of reporting this ocean traffic still remains important. The Marine Exchange, like Lloyds of London and the New York Mari time - Association, performs its unique function for all shipping interests. Radio Not Enough "The men who own the ships, those who work them, those who handle the cargoes and outfit them all want to know exactly where that ship is when it ap proaches port," McCarthy ex plained. "Radio won't do it be cause that's on the ship. It takes land-looking. "True, wireless has made this less important than in the old days. Then, the Exchange, meet ing the ship at sea, was the first to bring back the manifest the cargo it was bringing in, news from the East, the passengers. It's still important today to know the ship's exact position on the approach. Time and overtime is at stake money. . ' "Our subscribers (between 500 to 600) now want to know where that ship is every inch of the way. They want to know wheth er it's abeam of the lightship, 11 miles out, whether it's pass ing Point Lobos and Point Be nita, the headlands. Three miles out it is met by a pilot boat and takes on a pilot. We get that news first." At the waterfront lookout, the Exchange watchers board a launch and meet the vessel "in stream." Hardship Exceptions , "We give the ship its docking instructions, either written or verbal," McCarthy said. "Ours is the final word. Instructions may have changed skice the pilot went aboard. It is the Exchange that notifies quarantine; agricul tural, customs and immigration officials of the arrival. All are alerted to prevent delay." , Some ships like those of the American President Lines and Matson lines already- have cleared with authorities in Hono lulu. They have their own docks for berthing. Other ships must proceed to Pier 7 for clearance. If a vessel arrives between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. without official contact, it must anchor in mid stream and wait. "There are excentions of hard. ship, though," McCarthy explain ed. -L,uce that Chinese junk that came m the other day. The in spectors went out of their wav to clear it for anchorage. It wouia nave been a real hardship for those fellows if thev'H had to anchor in stream. They had no power and the six of them aboard would have had the dev il's own time in raising, the ancnor n they had an anchor." ANXIOUS New Haven, Mich.
