Study Shows Fermentation Of Food Vitamin Controlled Corvallis -- Vitamins have been put to a new and .valuable use, unrelated to their normal human nutrition roles, in re- aearch at Oregon State college. Food technoligists at the col lege have found that vitamin K-5 is a good preservative for con trolling food fermentation and killing microorganisms in fruit products. Findings by Dr. H. Y. Yang and J. N. Casper were re- ported at the annual national meeting of. the Institute of Food Technologists. Importance Noted The K vitamins are contained in green leaf foods as well as in .'.heese, egg yolks, liver and to matoes.

Vitamin K-5 has been found to have several advantages over sulfur dioxide, the most com monly used preservative at pre sent. It does not affect food flavor or taste as sulfur dioxide does, it has longer lasting ef fects, and retains the natural color of the food better. Bleaching Undesirable The bleaching produced in some cases by sulfur dioxide is especially u n d e s irable in the case of fruits and berries which possess natural attractive colors Vitamin K-5 also was found to be effective in preventing wine from turning sour. ine term vitamin K comes from the Scandinavian and Ger man term "Koagulations-Vita- 1 1 'Aji.wfnii 7rw'T MIGHTY AND THE MITE Seven-foot Vegas Vic and little five-year-old Shannon Beesley will no doubt be the tallest and shortest par ticipants in the 23rd annual Helldorado Days festivities in Las Vegas, Nev. The western type Mardi Gras runs May 16-19. Spanish Artist Solves Problem San Juan, Puerto Rico (U.PJ Spanish artist Luis Quintariil la found his most difficult as signment in realizing his 19 year ambition to paint a por trait of Pablo Casals, the cello virtuoso. Quintanilla came to Puerto Rico to get Casals to pose for him, but found that the maestro was so busy with preparations for the Casals Festival here. April 22 to May 8, that he would consent to sit for Quintanilla only while he was rehearsing. "Besides, that's the only way it will be a natural picture," he told the artist. Quintanilla agreed, but he dis covered that Casals becomes so engrossed in the music he plays that his face is a kaleidoscope of changing emotions. Besides, the private concerts were so captivating to Quintanilla that he would often forget to paint. For seven days he struggled to commit to canvas a fixed impression of the bobbing, weav ing, changing face of the 80-year-old cellist. Finally, it was finished. With hesitation, the painter turned the easel for Casals to get his first glimpse of the portrait. Casals frowned. "It's a good portrait," he said, "but there's something wrong about it. The bow it should be about a full inch longer." H " r I """ ; ; JSL..,, iii-'-'"- 1 '-"- '- j;- I " III.

A chirp Saturday or Sunday from either of two brown and white speckled eggs in the nest would send ornithologists, avi- cuuurists and bird watchers whooping with delight. That would raise new hopes that the white feathered, stem legged birds could be bred in captivity. This is Josephine's seventh try at hatching her eggs. And in Jo and Crip lie the experts' last hcpe that the species can continue.

Thursday, May IB, 1957 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THHOB Hungarian Family Fitting Into Ways Of New Land But Acts Give Them Away RIDE INTO PAST Chicago IW A nostalgic symbol of the horse 'n buggy days sits proudly amidst the parking meters that line the curbs of Chicago's North Side a bright red hitching post. Milwaukee (IB Toth Imre, his wife and six-year-old daugh ter usually act like any other working class family. They buy on the installment plan, watch Lawrence Welk on TV and" go to church on Sundays: ,' . But every ' so often they do something that gives them away. Such as Mrs. Imre mooing like a cow in a supermarket. Or the little girl fleeing in panic at the sight of the postman. For just five months ago, the Imre family fled Hungary with only the clothes on their backs. They are among the 300 Hungar ian refugees settled in the Mil waukee area. Their experiences are typical. .They live in a $50-a-month walkup flat. Except for the TV set and a refrigerator, the second-hand furniture was given them by the St. Vincent De Paul Society. Pay Buys Mora It also found a job for Ive, 30, as a $90-a-week chipper in a foundry. His pay per week is double what he made in a month as a mechanic in Budapest. And it buys far more in meat, milk, clothes and other necessities. The television set and the used refrigerator are being paid off in installments. Imre wants a car as soon as he can speak and wrote English well enough to pass driving tests. Mrs. Imre keeps a budget and they are set ting aside small amounts so they can send for Imre's mother, still in Hungary. But all has not gone smoothly. Their biggest trouble has ' been their inability to speak English. Both are going to night classes at Marquette University and the little girl is learning quickly in the first grade. Mr. Imre was astounded in a supermarket at the sight of wo men taking food from shelves, putting them in a cart and wheeling them away. A clerk finally explained that one paid for everything on leaving. Mooed for Beef She had little trouble recog inzting labels of the food she wanted but one day she could find no beef to point at in the showcase. To let the clerk know what she wanted, she pointed to milk and cheese. He didn't get it. Finally, she "mooed" and got her cut of beef. Little Kathleen got a scare from the mailman's first visit. She ran into the house and told her mother "a man in uniform" was coming up the walk. The child had seen the uniformed Hungarian secret police arrest her mother last December. Imre himself has no trouble at work. It's too noisy to hear what anyone is saying, no mat ter what tongue they are using, and signs are substituted. - Mail from Hungary brings smiles to their faces, but not nos talgia. A vigorous, negative shake of their heads, is the answer to the question of wheth er they ever want to return to Hungary. Imre knows enough English to say: "We are home."
