Salt on Grapefruit
Gives New Taste Thrill
With vitamin rich grapefruit now
in season, tlie na; ion'z larrest manu-
facturer of tabic salt has launched
a novel advertising idea aimed at
, promoting the use of this fruit ns
one of the two government nutri-
tion experts sav should be Included
In a balanced dally wartime diet.
The novelty lies in ii'ging the use
of good table all on grapefruit and
oranges nnd In cirrus Juices, all
purchasable now without handing
over ration stamps {o your grocer.
Salt, admittedly indispensable to
human life, never has been ration-
ed.
"Ealt makes grapefruit taste
sweeter;" “.salt on grapefruit brings
out an entirely new flavor” and
“a dash of pure salt on any citrus
fruit or In a glass of Juice 'does
something'" are the main themes
of the manufacturer's Intensive pro-
motion effort which will run dur -
lug the grapefruit season.
Many persons who have used salt
on citrus fruits and In Juices say
they experienced nn entirely new
and pleasantly palatable taste.

* ‘ Six years ago Anne Gillis seem-
ed definitely launched on a film
starring career at the age of 11. '
She was the Becky in "Adven-
tures of Tom Sawyer.”
For two years the career pro-
gressed satisfactorily. Then sud
denly she began to put on weight.
From plump to dangerously-near
plain fat was her chart.
Producers began to tell her they'd
like to have her in certain parts if
only she were a bit slimmer. Anne
tried to get slimmer but succeeded
onL in getting plumper
When the scales registered 132 a
few weeks ago. she was ready to
give it all up and go to college. She
even wept so far as to buy a ticket
back to Little Rock. Ark . her home
i town. She intended to enter Hen-
drix college.
While waiting for the reservation
(tale to arrive she made one more
try a’ weight reduction. She put
herself on a not too strinrent diet
of her own devising. Tlie pounds
miraculously began to disappear.
Anne thinks they were about to
go anyway and doesn't give too
much credit to her diet. At any
rate, they vanished, and with them
went Anne's college ambitions. She
is now down to a streamlined youth -

As a result she’s playing one of
the leading featured roles in
"Janie." comedy of adolescent youth

planting from the stage to the
screen.

"If you want to be thrown to-
gether with a group of people who
aren't interested hi having fun but
just meeting the right people who
can lift them a rung on the ladder
to success," lie says, "then just be
careless about the parties you go
to in Hollywood.
"One word describes there func-
tions—artificial. Too many of the
people who go to them can be de-
scribed as phonies ”
The actor's attitude he confesses,
results from his dislike for pro-
longed conversation about motion
pictures—talk he hears each day

! Plan Offered To
Employ Veterans
WASHINGTON. Feb. 18 —<0.R»—
A plan to ease the manpower
- shortage In the chemical industry
was proposed recently in a letter
to Manpower Commission Chalr-
i man Paul V. MeNutt by Harry
L. Derby, president of American
Cyanamid and Chemical corpora-
tion and head of the Manufactur-
ing Chemists’ association.
Deroy suggested that the United
1 States employment service obtain
irom the armed services names,
addresses and qualifications of men
before their discharge. This lnfor-
! mation, made available to the local
office of USES nearest the home
j of the veteran, would enable etn-
i plovers in the area to contact the
qualified men.
Chemical producers are greatly
! concerned over their shrinking out-
i Put. Industrial and Engineering
Chemistry, a publication of the
American Chemical society, re-
ports. and they fear that the re-
cent action of Selective Service on
the status of men in the 18 to 22
age bracket will intensify the
, dow nward production trend.
Emphasizing the scarcity ot skil-
led workers in the chemical field,
the publication reported that one
government agency handling an
important phase of war production
Is seeking data on chemists and
chemical engineers now in the
nrmed forces, "with the idea of
asking lor the immediate outright
release or assignment ot such mm
to vital research work."

The fate of the former Osaee

but ills family lias gained some
hope for his safety with publica-
tion of pictures taken on Corre-
