Monitors Push
Campaign to Oust
Teamsters Boss
WASHINGTON, UPi — Court ap
pointed monitors of the Teamsters
Union yesterday won a prelim
inary legal round in their cam
paign to oust James R. Hoffa as
president of the big union.
They obtained from Federal
District Judge F. Dickinson Letts
sweeping powers to investigate
their allegations that Hoffa had
misused funds of Detroit Local
299. Hoffa is president of the
local, as well as the ipternational
union.1
Letts said he would issue sub
poenas asked by the monitors
and would authorize them to take
testimony under oath concerning
financial transactions of Local 299.
In asking for authority to con
duct the investigation, the moni
tors said that if they establish
that Hoffa violated a court order
he should be removed as presi
dent of the international union
and put on trial looking to his
expulsion as a union member.
Chairman Martin F. O’Donohue
of the three-member panel of
monitors told newsmen he in
tended eventually to offer testi
mony in court concerning Local
299’s financial dealings.

Rivers Inundate
Valleys In
Washington State
SEATTLE, UP\ — Rescue teams
continued working today to evac
uate persons stranded by flood
waters in northwest Washington.
Thousands of acres of lowlands
were under water but there were
indications some rivers weer grad
ually receding.
The Snoqualmie River, which
had peaked Monday at 13 feet,
dropped to 8.27 feet yesterday,
six inches below flood stage.
Other streams also were reported
dropping slowly.
The Green River was still on
the rise yesterday, however, and
the valley towns of Kent and
Auburn south of here were still
hard hit. Sheriffs officers and
Coast Guardsmen were kept busy
throughout the night answering
calls for aid in the Green River
Valley.
There was still no immediate
relief in sight despite the lower
ing of some rivers. The damage
to rich farmlands and homes was
expected to run into millions of
dollars.
Hundreds of persons have been
rescued by helicopter, power
boats and amphibious craft from
both the Green River Valley and
the Snohomish River Valley to
the north.
Delusions of Religious
Persecution Drives Woman
To Murder Her Children
ROSSVILLE, Ga., UP) — “I
killed all my children. There
were four of them. There’s no use
going to see if they’re dead. I
know they’re dead.”
A sheriffs deputy thus quoted a
31-year-old mother after she
walked several blocks in a heavy
rain to the home of a preacher
to disclose the deaths of her chil
dren Monday night.
Police went to the home of
Wiley M. Thrailkill Sr., where
they found the bodies of three
boys, and a girl. Their heads were
brutally beaten.
Deputy W. S. Flegal said Mrs.
Thrailkill apparently was under
delusions of religious persecution.

Scrappy ’Nooks Outclassed
By Merchants; Hornets
Sting Sluggish Indies
Tuesday night the Nome Mer
chants, guided by Captain George
Bell, made short work of the
never-give-up Nome High School
club. Although they were badly
outmanned, the Nanooks do not
know the meaning of the word
quit. Even after being hopelessly
behind, they continued to give
all and show tremendous hustle
and spirit.
This was the second win of the
year for the Merchants as they
demolished the Nanooks to the
tune of 64-24. High for the Mer
chants were George Bell with 17
and Buzz^ Swanberg with 13.
High for the Nanooks was Jim
Bell, the latest of that. great
local family of athletes, with 11.
In the finale for the evening the
Polar Hornets outlasted the Inde
pendents in a lusterless game
marked by some uncanny knacks
for missing the basket. The Indies
scored an all-time low for shoot
ing percentages with a lusty 4 for
47 from the field to give them
a percentage of .085. The Hor
nets, sparked by Frank Austin’s
play, had things pretty well their
own way after a very slow start.
High for the'"Hornets were Aus
tin with 13 and Ahkolik with 9.
High for the Indies was Woodcock
with — it’s the truth — 3 points.
The final score was 34 to 10.

Music Helps In Making
Crusts For Pumpkin Pie
A CHEF who bakes a thousand pies a week claims an aria
from Wagner will make a better pie crust than kneading
it _ j_I
me aougn.
Karl Fleer, a Hanoverian by
birth and a master baker, has no
illusions, however, about the ef
fectiveness of other music for the
pies have no. particular choice.
Any old song will do.
For Americans who happen to
be traveling on Canadian National'
Railways’ trains anywhere in
Canada — coast to coast — at
U. S. Thanksgiving time in No
vember. Karl plans to. “sing out”,
real old-fashioned pumpkin pies
for them. “They won’t be home
sick when they eat CNR pump
kins pies,” Karl avers.
Singing is not the main ingre
dient the buoyant Karl puts in
his pastries — he has favorite
recipes for his pies and the hun
dreds of cupcakes, doughnuts and
buns he turns out in a week’s
work, and he is always happy to
share them.
Pie baking is easy, but the crust
is the most difficult part, Chef
Fleer admits.
“Let the pastry work itself,” he
advises. “Don’t knead it. Just let
the ingredients stand for an hour
and you’ll find the fat and water
will combine with the flour, the
water will evaporate a little and
your pastry will be a success.”
“Of course, having a steady oven
heat is very important” — and he
adds — “if you get impatient, do
as I do, sing away the time. It’s
a natural thing to do and doesn’t
distract me from my work.”
Karl’s favorite recipe for pump
kin pie filling is a basic custard
one. He admits the filling is a
matter of taste — but all pumpkin
pies must have some spices. He
suggests adding pecans or almonds
for a little variation.
“The most important thing
about pumpkin pie,” he cautions,
“is to serve it fresh — just as soon
as it cools.” And just as the pie
is taken to the table, he recom
mends a topping of whipped
■ream.
Karl started baking when he
was 14 years old. He came to
Canada in 1928 and since 1948 has
been baking for the Canadian
National.
Here is Karl’s recipe for Pump*
kin Custard Pie:
Ingredients for two pies:
lVt cups pumpkin (canned)
6 eggs
2 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1% cups hot milk
1% cups hot cream
1 bastingspoon melted butter
Beat eggs and sugar well to*
gether for at least 5 minutes. Mix
spices in a very little of the milk
and cream until smooth. Add bal
ance of milk and cream and stir
this mixture of spices and milk
into the first mixture of eggs and
sugar. Place pumpkin puree in
bowl and gradually add the liquid
mixture to it. Fill pie to within
% inch of the top and before plac
ing pie in oven, sprinkle each pie
with V2 bastingspoon of melted
butter. Bake until well done and
of good color. FN5
