I Los Angeles Times Part AUG. 11, 1955 Farmers Market Today By Dick Kidson One of the best things that could happen during a real hot spell is a real cold spell.

Most people we know have nothing more than an ordinary box at home.

And it's so full you there even couldn't if you a had one. kumquat Much stick less your head. That leaves most of us going through life as fullfledged of Perspiration Anonymous. Have to suffer through these annual heat waves the hard way. Thing to do is wear cool clothing and eat a midday meal that won't build a fire in your boiler.

Of course, there are two schools of thought in this matter. Some hold that a hot meal is for hot weather. We are not the going to est argue ways the to point. lose One a friend is to of quicktell him what to eat and when. But for those who believe that looks and taste are 90 per cent of the battle, we've got the answer to the 000 question right here at THE FARMERS MARKET, West Third and Fairfax.

At Jimmy Boris' Juice Bar. This spot is a lot more than just a juice bar, although Jimmy has a lot of those, too. He's got a pressure gimmick that could squeeze juice out of a walnut. But his beautiful cold salads are what will get your mind off the weather. You know that big hole in the middle of a cantaloupe when it is cut in half and the seeds removed? You should see what Brother Boris puts in there.

Piled Into the most attractive and delicious mound you ever laid eyes on or sank a tooth in, are fresh peaches, watermelon, fresh pineapple, oranges, bananas, honey dew melon and a big straw. berry on top, Anyone who doesn't go for that is a mental case. There is ice cold watermelon on a stick, completely free of seeds. That's a major item right there, Then, of course, there is fresh pineapple on a stick. All you have to do is pick one of these things up and go to work on it.

Another popular salad is made of cantaloupe, watermelon and strawberries surrounding a scoop of Waldorf salad containing chopped apples, celery and nuts. There are plates of watermelon, bananas, peaches, oranges and fresh pineapple, attractively placed with cottage cheese in the Boris Juice Bar uses middle. Do you know that ting pounds of cottage cheese a day, or enough to stucco a five-room house?

DARK SUNDAY AIR CONDITIONED PHONE Michigan 1011 Battle Brewing Over Hospital Fund Allocation An investigation into recent hospital fund allocations under which Fresno received the lion's share of an 000,000 grant may be demanded by State Assemblyman Erwin (R) Puente. Erwin has indicated he is curious to discover how Fresno was given priority over Whittier petitioners who already had raised a sum in excess of $1,000,000 for projected hospital construction in Los Angeles County.

Under the system whereby Federal Hill Burton Hospital funds are allocated, local agencies are required to raise onethird of the amount needed with this sum matched by both the State and Federal governments. Asked to Explain Erwin revealed he has written to Dr. Malcolm H. Merrill, head of the State Public Health Department, asking for an explanation of how Dr. Merrill's group gave Fresno applicants preferential consideration.

"It seems a bit strange to me," commented man Erwin, "that Southern California, with a majority of the State's population and with 5,000,000 hospital bed shortage of its own, lost out to a considerably smaller northern district." from Dr. Pending a reply Merrill, Erwin said he will ask the proper interim committee to look into the matter. Such action could be undertaken by the powerful Assembly Rules Committee of which Erwin is chairman; or it could be done either by the Committee on Government Efficiency and Economy or by a subcommittee of the Committee on Public Health. Erwin's Rules Committee has a meeting in Sacramento scheduled for Aug. 18.

Nixon Linked The name of Vice-President Nixon was introduced into the threatened wrangle. Nixon is honorary chairman of the Presbyterian Inter-Community Hospital Campaign under whose direction the $1,000,000 Whittier fund was raised. Erwin stated that at a meeting last May the Whittier petitioners were told by Dr. Merrill's group that they could expect a near-top priority in the distribution of the hospital allocation. Condemnation of several buildings of the Fresno County Hospital as "structurally at fault" by State Fire Marshall Yockers was what prepared the way for favorable action on the Fresno application over those of some 39 other supplicants.

Smith said the two-alarm blaze was seen for nearly a mile. "We didn't need any directions," said Smith. "We pulled out of the house at 5605 Sheila St. and came straight to the fire."
