A Smart Supper
Idea
■■ ■ By Betty Barclay -
MEAT left on your roast, to
slice down cold? Ham left
from the weekend picnic? Well
. . . you can give
your family an
interesting meal
they’ll enjoy
(instead of
grumble at!) if
you prepare
Coconut Broiled
Bananas to
serve as a hot
a ird delectable
accompaniment for the cold meat.
With a little bit of efTort, a “left
overs meal” can thus become a
‘‘smart supper”!
Coconut Broiled Bananas
4 bananas; melted butter; salt;
1 cup shredded coconut, cut; 3
tablespoons orange juice; V2 tea
spoon grated orange rind.
Peel bananas and split length
wise in halves. Place cut side
down in lightly greased shallow
baking pan. Brush with melted
butter and sprinkle lightly with salt.
Place in broiler, about 4 inches
from heat, and broil about 3 min
utes, or until bananas are almost
tender. Meanwhile, combine coco
nut, orange juice, and orange rind.
Turn bananas and sprinkle with
coconut mixture. Return to broiler
for about 2 minutes longer, to
brown coconut lightly. Serve hot
as meat accompaniment. c Makes
j 4 servings.
Astronomy Notes
By OLAF HALVERSON
When first seen through a tele
scope, in the evening twilight, the
planet Venus is gibbous, a term
which means nearly round. It has
then just emerged on the farther
side of the sun from us.
At first it is almost disk-shaped
but it soon takes on the form of
a half moon. This is at its point of
greatest elongation east. It is then
at its highest and brightest. This
position will be reached this
spring on April 12. We can there
fore look forward to the continued
brightness of this planet until 12
days after Easter.
After April 12 the planet will
begin to take on a crescent shape
until it is lost in the brightness of
the sun.
Venus, therefore, because its
orbit lies within that of the earth,
passes through all the stages of
full, first quarter, new and last
quarter, like our moon.
MARINES TAG 'ENEMIES'
IWO JIMA, Iff)—U.S. marines
taking part in maneuvers on Iwo
Jima are tagging captured “en
emy” troops with signs reading:
“You are dead,” or “You have
a head injury.”
! One sign said simply: “You’ve
i had it.”
Russia Is Ready
For Atomic War
Against U. S.
MOSCOW, (jfl — Soviet defense
minister Marshal Georgi Zhukov
said Saturday the Soviet Union
is prepared to wage atomic war
fare against the mainland of the
United States in the event of hos
tilities.
Zhukov also announced the So
viet Union will not make any fur
ther reductions in its armed
forces.
He said in an address before
the 20th Communist party con
gress in the Kremlin that any fu
ture war would be large scale
and that the Soviet Union is
ready and able to drop atom
bombs on U.S. territory. He main
tained the Soviet government
does not want war but is equip
ped to wreck any plans the West
might have to confine any out
break of hostilities to continental
Europe.
Reports from the closely guard
ed Kremlin indicated Zhukov was
not belligerent in his address. On
J the contrary, .these reports in
dicated he showed a firm and
confident attitude apparently
based on a belief the Soviet de
fense potential has matured to a
point where the Soviet govern
ment feels it does not have to
i display any modesty about its
j ability to wage war.
Whitey Dahl Found Dead
At Site of Plane Crash
In Northern Quebec
MONTREAL, (#> — Harold E.
“Whitey” Dahl, much-publicized
flier of fortune, has crashed to
his death in the snow - covered
wastes of northern Quebec.
Dahl, who survived a death
sentence in the Spanish civil war
and came through a series of
aerial escapades, perished last
Tuesday while ferrying an old
DC3 over northern Quebec.
A Canadian search plane spot
ted his wrecked craft yesterday
and picked up Dahl’s body, an
other victim and one survivor.
The survivor was identified as
Eric Pearson, 42, of Miami, Fla.,
and the man killed was Walt
Givens, about 42, also believed to
be from Miami.

the years, had an appeal pend
ing from a theft conviction in the
disappearance of an aerial gold
cargo.
