Basketball Plans
Still Stymied
WASILLA —■ Absences from
school are upsetting plans for
a high school basketball
team, Superintendent James
Pendleton said this week.
Palmer high school has requested
a scheduled game on Oct. 24, but
Mr. Pendleton said he doubted
if. enough eligible players could
be found to form a team by that
date.
Wasilla absences have been un
usually high this year during
September. Potato harvest has
been partly responsible, but Mr.
Pendleton said continued exces
sive absences are creating a. dif:
ficult school problem.
Parents are asked to co-operate
with the school by sending stu
dents to their classes. r

Dairymen Hear
Valley Needs
(Continued From Page One)
Red Dane Breed
Farmers asked Dr. Reed about
the Red Dane breed of cow, re
cently imported from Denmark.
Dr. Reed gave facts on the cow’s
production in the states.
The dairy head also was ques
tioned about the importance of
pure-bred sires. Dr. Reed re
plied that even in cross-breeding
the pure-bred sire was necessary,
but it was his belief that in the
past too much attention had
been paid fo pedigree and not
enough to proved sires.
“You can!t fool the farmer any
more, though,” he said, “You
can’t sell him a pure-bred animal
put of your herd- unless records
have been kept and you can
demonstrate that that pure-bred
animal will improve his herd.”
Guest Speaker
Dr. O. E. Reed, chief of the
aureau of dairy industry of the
Department of Agriculture, was
Suest speaker-at an assembly of
nigh school students last Thurs
day afternoori.
Cantaloupes are most delicious
■vhen chilled. If. the cantaloupe
is chilled in the refrigerator, it
should be wrapped in heavy
vaxed paper as this helps to keep
the odor within the fruit. The
proper way to chill it is to place
.he cantaloupe on top of a bowl
if chopped ice for about 15 min
ites. Never serve chopped ice in
;he cut surface of the melon,
since it causes the pulp to be
:ome mushy and watery.
