The play has a cast of 18, with extras, should there be any. Selection of this play is a direct result of the Footlight- er's desire not only to enter-, tain, but to provide an oppor tunity for those interested in this medium of self-expression, it is noted. Since there are many small character parts in "Suds in Your Eye'' it is an ideal play for an indi vidual interested in acting but without experience enough for a major role. With Thayer Tarvin select ed to direct, "Suds" promises to be a "fun" play, boUl to De in and to watch, it is said. The play is considered "family en tertainment." Tryouts start Tuesday night at 8 p.m. and run tnrougn Wednesday night. Those who have not read the play are urged to be at the Footlighter theater at the fairgrounds at 7:30 p.m. and to take an ad vance look at the book.

Frenchman Started Us On Canned Food Habit By HAY FARKAS United Press International Washington - In 1810 Frenchman Nicolas Appert discovered that sealing foods in a container and cooking them kept them edible. Now, 150 years later more than 1,200 food products are canned. Abalone chowder, brains with gravy. You name it, it's in a can. When Appert made his dis covery scurvy was the plague of sailors on long voyages. The new process kept foods digest ible and Napoleon later be came the first big canned goods consumer. He used pre served food to feed his armies. The industry expects to seal more than 22 billion cans of food this year. The National Canning asso- siation compiled a list of can ned foods in a pamphlet cau tiously titled "The Almost Complete Canner." The cau tion is because new foods and combinations of them are be ing cased in glass or tin plate every day. Two hundred types of canned goods have been identified since the last print ing. The booklet did manage to get in garbanzo beans, cream of avocado soup, alewives, strained egg yolks, ox joints in gravy, dandelion greens, and dewberry juice.

Orientation Sessions Our orientation sessions at Now York university ac quainted us with fucots of Scouting and American life which wo needed to broaden our background. Included were discussions concerning U. S. A. Scouting, troops on foreign soil, financing and or ganization of the Girl Scouts the United States political sys tem and the place and extent of volunteer workers in the community. Our orientation also In cluded mi evening of skits put on by the four patrols. Tho theme of the skits was "Amer ican" and portrayed situations which could bo used to ex plain American history, llle, or activities to our English friends. Impromptu results in cluded an Indian legend, dunce, historical trail to points of Interest In the United States, and a skit concerning a "typical American." Not all of our time was spent in meetings, however. We also had the opportunity of visiting the United Nations building. Our French guide first showed us a model of the United Nations. We then vis ited the rooms of tho General Assembly, tho Security Coun cil and Trusteeship Council, and the Economic and Social Council. National Headquarters Wo also went to the Nation al Girl Scout headquarters In New York for a Coke party and to meet members of the national stulf. Again we put Into practice the Girl Scout law when we mot two Girl Scouts from Iceland who were en route to Mexico to attend an international gathering. On Friday, July 6. we boarded the SS United States to begin our ocean voyage to England. Stars of "La Plume de Ma Tantc" and Durwood Klrby, co-alar on the Garry Moore show, are among the 1,730 passengers on board. While on the ship we were asked to present a short mus ical program to the other pas sengers. Girl Scouts every where hove a common bond of song. It took us only a short while to choose and practice five songs which all of us had learned through our respective Scouting exper iences. I think that we enjoyed the program as much as did our audience. It was quite an In spirational experience to be a part of this group. New friends blended accents from all sections of the United States to bring a memorable significance to the old songs. We dock July 13 at South hampton and then travel by train lo London where we will begin our stay In England. Couples Return From Vacation Mr. mid Mrs. W. J.
