CANCER DRIVE ENTERS FINAL WEEK FOR FUNDS

You, too, Mr. and Mrs. Coral Gables will be "buttonholed" Saturday, May 3. Marking the close of the April cancer drive for funds in Dade County, those familiar red, white, and blue "buttons for cancer" will be distributed in the Gables business district by a corps of volunteers supervised by Mrs. E. H. Schellenberg, 752 Avenue Majorca, and her assistant, Mrs. Preston Pinkston, 3705 Ave. Monserrate. They will direct all operations in their headquarters set up in the Renuart lumber company's office on Alhambra circle. Ponce to Organize Ponce de Leon High School's contribution to the cancer button day effort will be organized by Jimmy Renuart who will supervise the membership of the Wheel Club and all boys groups at the school. Dade County's goal of $35,000 for speeding up cancer research, extending publication education, providing better hospital and clinic facilities, training more specialists and maintaining the Cancer Information Center is still lacking a few thousand dollars toward successful conclusion of the drive. Volunteer "button salesmen" will also be stationed Saturday in the business districts of Miami and Miami Beach.

'U' STUDYING PLANS FOR FRAT HOUSES

An early decision on the University of Miami's plans for a "fraternity row" is expected following discussions now being carried on by school officials, Dr. J. F. W. Pierson, vice president of the University, revealed today. "We had originally hoped to locate the sites for the various fraternity and sorority houses on land situated just adjacent to the main campus," Dr. Pierson stated, "but the high prices of land in that area will probably make it necessary to build them on the main campus." Tentative plans call for alloting each fraternity wishing to build a site 150 feet by 100 feet, Dr. Pierson pointed out. He said that the main difficulty in selecting the on-campus site for the group of houses is the fact that fraternity row will be approximately one mile long. The University vice president also stated that some limitation would be placed on the maximum as well as minimum size of the proposed houses, to prevent extra large houses or inadequate ones being erected. He said that a definite decision on the fraternity house situation could be expected probably within the next week.

Marketing with Marjorie

What's on my mind today? The same thing that's probably on every housewife's... spring cleaning! But I'm not going to let it get me down, and I hope you won't let it get you down either. That's why I want to share some of my pet labor-saving ideas with you. Try them and see if they don't make it easy to take it easy! BEANS FOR THE BUSY When I'm up to my ears in pails and mops (as who isn't these days?), I'm more grateful than ever for A&P's ready-to-eat ANN PAGE BEANS. They're simply delicious just the way they come out of the can... and extra-tasty fixed like this: Fill a casserole with 3 1-lb. cans of ANN PAGE BEANS with pork and tomato sauce (enough for 6 generous servings); top with slices of ham or bacon, and then bake for 30 minutes in a moderate oven, 350°F. HOUSE CLEANING HINTS To remove watermarks from a waxed finish, take off old wax with liquid wax; apply a fresh coat. To mildew-proof awnings and shower curtains, soak them in very soapy water and, without rinsing, dip them in a solution of copper sulphate, which you can get at the drug store. To protect floors from furniture marks and scratches, wax rockers and feet of chairs and tables when you wax your floors. To make your home "come clean" from attic to cellar, get BRIGHT SAIL cleaning aids at your A&P. Every one of these fine products does such a thorough job that homemaking should be without them. TEA FOR THE TIRED Doesn't a cup of tea do wonders for you when you're weary? It does for me... especially when it's full of really invigorating flavor. That's why I always use OUR OWN, NECTAR or MAYFAIR TEAS from the A&P. They're all Flavor Tested, so no matter which you choose, you can be sure you're hitching your tea wagon to a star!
