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. They are necessary for
the production of prothrombin,
a blood substance, and are of

ulation and prevention of hemorrhage.
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.

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."

Whooping Cranes
Nesting at Zoo
New Orleans (IB Josephine
and Crip, the only pair of
whooping cranes in captivity,
are quietly taking turns sitting
on a nest at Audubon Park Zoo.
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.

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."
