Size $1100 Millions of Melons Move to Mar ket As Western Harvests Gain Mo mentum Our long growing season brings us ambrosial melons from May to December and gives pleasure to millions the country over as freight trains and trucks rush them to market. Canta loupes appear on fancy fruit stands early in May with a few still around in late October. Watermelons roll from May through September. Honeydews and honeyballs come fast on the heels of cantaloupes, followed by Persians. Then come casabas and Cranshaws to bring new de light. All are in September mar kets. All melons have one thing in common. They need to be well chilled. But don't overdo it. And we particularly advise against filling melon halves with ice for quick chilling because it dilutes the perfection of flavor. We can suggest many ways with melons but the vast majority will be served with salt, pepper, lemon or lime wedges alongside. Superb at any meal as appe tizer, salad or dessert, they're also ideal for snacking or in combination with other melons, fruit or berries. Cantaloupes. Today's canta loupes, thanks to patient research have smaller seed cavities, more meat. Vine - ripened, they're picked at full slip. High in vita mins. Low in calories. Casabas. Casabas are large, al most globular in shape and some times pointed at stem end. Rind is rough and wrinkled length wise of the melon. There is no netting. Rind deepens to buttery yellow with maturity. A ripe casaba has a soft, creamy-white, meltingly juicy flesh; less frag rance or aroma than other mel ons. Cranshaw Melons. Compara tively new, the Cranshaw is very perishable; is usually ripened off the vine. Weight varies from 4 to 10 pounds with majority weighing six to eight pounds. Golden green, the rind is smooth and flesh is salmon colored, thick and juicy; rich in spicy flavor. Really a cross between Casaba and Persian. Definitely a luxury item. Honey Balls. These are simi lar to cantaloupes in size and shape although slightly more round; yellow - golden showing tinges of pink. They may be smooth or slightly netted. Flesh is thick, extremely sweet; has delightful fragrance. Honeydews. Larger than the honey ball. Creamy yellow, it weighs four to six pounds; is bluntly oval in shape and usually smooth though may be slightly netted. Flesh is delicate green, very juicy, very sweet and of fine-grained, melting texture. Persians., These are the large round melons which range from 2 to 8 pounds. Rind is deep green evenly covered with fine net ting similar to cantaloupe. Flesh is deep orange-pink, very thick and mfldly sweet. Many think the flavor of Persians unex celled. Watermelons. No mistaking a watermelon which however will soon be disappearing from view. Melon Bowl. As 'pictured, many make a bowl of hollowed out watermelon, fill it with as sorted melon balls for a party dessert offering of beauty and distinction. Melon Ring. Cut chilled canta loupes into crosswise slices about two inches thick. Peel rings and place on shredded let tuce. Fill with spoonful of cream cheese softened with cream and seasoned with salt. Sprinkle with toasted almonds. Wedges - (half moons) of peeled honeydew or Persian may be used for this also. Sierra Snow. Cut thick slices from chilled cantaloupe ' or honeydew. Remove rind, arrange on serving plates. Fill rings with balls or . cubes from melon "bowls". Top with sherbet. Frosted Honeydew This is a production; a show piece. Peel a honeydew melon; cut slice from one end and re move seeds. Fill cavity with wa ter, pour it out and measure. Stand melon upside down to drain well. Prepare sufficient raspberry fruit gelatin to fill cavity of melon using amount of water poured from it as guide to amount needed. Fill melon with gelatin and place in refrigerator until gela tin is firm. Blend cream cheese with small amount of milk, whipping until light and fluffy. Frost entire melon with this whipped cream cheese. Place frosted melon on round chop plate, surround with crisp leaves such as fig tree, laurel or other yard shrubbery.

Mergers Said Causing Unemployment' For Tod Level Executives By ALFRED LEECH United Press Correspondent Chicago OR Mergers are creating unemployment among top level executives, a noted job counsellor said today. Lon Barton, who specializes in finding jobs for highly paid executives, said the "job mor tality rate" in the top brackets is growing rapidly. The trend toward mergers and acquisitions has been widely dis cussed from an economic view point, Barton said, while the im pact on individuals has been lg- ' nored. Barton, whose Cadillac Asso ciates, Inc., places hundreds of executives . annually, said the 'chiefs" usually suffer more than the "Indians" in a merger. As a rule, he said, the work force is left intact while the ex ecutives are reshuflled. . v "It's understandable that a new management would want to clear out the deadwood," he said. But on the other hand, he said, competent men may be chopped down when the incom ing group seeks to eliminate real or fancied opposition to its new policies. "I don't like to see this trend," Barton said. "But it's certainly evident from our own experi ence this past year in job place ment. "Just under 15 Der cent of the executives we've interview ed have been victims of some type of merger or sale. And an other group, nearly 10 per cent, saw the handwriting on the wall and either quit or began looking for new jobs." Serious Business It's a serious business, Barton said, because most incoming managements feel more confi dent with their own men in the Mrs. Roosevelt Tours Red Square, Kremlin Moscow (IB - Mrs. El eanor Roosevelt toured Red Square and the Kremlin today and viewed the body of the late Josef Stalin. The former first lady, accom panied by her physician, Dr. Da vid Gurewitsch, and her secre tary, Maureen Corr, entered the red and black mausoleum hold ing the bodies of Stalin and Len in ahead of thousands of Rus sians lined up patiently awating their turn. Later she and her party visit ed the. Kremlin and the city's museums, churches, and gard ens., ' key spots and will appoint them to the top jobs sooner or later, "probably sooner." "Any executive who thinks he can survive in such a situation is making a dangerous and fool ish blunder," Barton said. "In all likelihood his 'resigna tion' will be requested within six months after the new group takes over." So Barton had this advice for management men who hear the word "merger." "Line up another job. Head for the corporate hills, and fast." transfer bit of greenery to des sert plate.
