What Else! APPARENTLY anyone who can come up with a substitute for coffee one that will genuinely bamboozle the customers has it made. But it isn't easy. A couple of weeks ago Alex Gaby, editor of the Labor News, came across a recipe from a fellow named Charles Robertson In Vancouver, B. C.

It offered carrots as a base for ersatz coffee. Gaby forwarded the recipe to Miss Gwendolyn Taylor, chief dietician at Strong Memorial Hospital. Hospital costs being what they are today (and coffee prices being what THEY are) Miss Taylor said she'd be glad to try the recipe and see what happened. It went like this: "Shred some large carrots, place them in a cookie pan close under the fire in a hot stove, roast until very dark brown, crumble, and brew like coffee." Charlie said the results "will surprise you." They surprised Miss Taylor, but only partially. "The concoction looked exactly like coffee," she says.

"It had that rich brown color, and for a minute I had hopes i i What was the drawback? Why, it tasted just like Miss Taylor said, yes, it has also been suggested that she experiment with barley. "But, honestly, I guess we'll stick to honest-td-goodness coffee. All these possible substitutes have one catch; while they all look like coffee, unfortunately they all taste like just what they really are." ONE OF the unfortunate things about the McCarthy Committee hearings (have you noticed how they list it in the radio program schedule? "Army McCarthy," just like a football game or prizefight.) is that a good many people apparehtly have gained a slightly twisted impression of the goings-on. Legal procedure and red tape are so baffling to the layman that he often gains a false conception. And can you blame him? We actually heard this conversation the other evening as two men watched a TV film of the hearing: "I'm not In favor of that McCarthy, but if I was Secretary Stevens, I think I'd plead guilty and take the sentence.

Maybe he could get off with two or three years if he copped a plea." "Stevens? He's not the guy they're trying to send up the river. It's McCarthy. Just because he acts, like he's the D.A., you think he's not on trial?" "Well, either way, I'll bet the judge' that Jenkins pins something on both of 'em." I A TRIVIATA: Looking back at one of last summer's offerings in this space we note with whatever satisfaction you can get from saying "I told you so" that we tabbed Wally Moon as "the next great newcomer to the St. Louis Cardinal outfield." And aren't the Red Wings fortunate? Although they lost Wally Moon to the Cards, hasn't anyone noticed that they have received a new moon in return in Memo Luna? (If "luna" doesn't mean "moon," then Matt Lawless and the rest of us old Latin scholars will turn in our togas.) Ray Ball recalls that when he surveyed the upcoming canv paign in his first year as Community Chest president, he considered tho task ahead with some awe and said to Chest manager Dick Miller: "I'm afraid this is going to be a critical year." Replied Miller, with the soothing calm that has made hlra one of the top Chest directors in the country: "Don't worry, Ray. Every year is a critical year." Yep, they made their quota, too.

The incident touched off an inquiry by Public Works Commissioner Harold B. McElwain, who wanted to know among other things why neither of the stricken men was equipped with masks when going into the hole. McElwain recalled that following a similar incident in Ironde-quoit in 1952, when four men died in a manhole, a checkup was made to see that all DPW trucks were equipped with protective masks.

VanGelder said that the crews had been working for three days cleaning out the manholes in the area adjacent to that in which Hartman and Poreelli became ill The manholes all are located in the parking lot of the Rochester Manufacturing of the Rock-wood Street address. more city streets.
