E. Biddinger Wednesday proclaimed April as Cancer Control month In Billings and called on all residents of the city to support the American Cancer society fund campaign opening Friday. Coinciding with the mayor's proclamation, an appeal was sounded by drive leaders for more volunteers to help wage the campaign. More workers are urgently needed for the drive, Mrs. George A.

Mitchell, chairman of the Yellowstone county unit of the American Cancer society, reported. She asked that anyone willing to volunteer for the "fight cancer" campaign contact the American Cancer society office now. The mayor said, in part: "There is a great need for public awareness of the ravages of cancer which will claim the lives of many people In this city, county, state and nation before the year's end, and whereas the American Cancer society and its workers in Billings have performed a great service in their fight to control cancer as mayor of the city of Billings do hereby designate the month of April 1949 as Cancer Control month." He urged that Billings citizens enlist In the campaign and participate wholeheartedly with the cancer society during the coming year "for unless we act now, one in eight will die of cancer." "Help the American Cancer society to control cancer for your own health's sake," the proclamation concluded. A personal canvass of the Billings business district is planned, and an appeal by mail will be made in the residential areas. Tim Calaway heads the cancer drive In Yellowstone county, and Mrs.

Sid Jef- fers was alternate. of the national farm chemurgic council, which is also interested in finding new uses for farm products like the pectin from fruit. The new greaseless nut is expected to be popular with persons who would munch more salted nuts if they didn't get their clothes and faces so greasy. The, greaseless potato chip, destined for a great future at the cocktail party, is possible because of a new method of processing potatoes. First, part of the moisture Is removed from the potato.

Then it Is frozen. When it is sliced and cooked, it absorbs less grease. This hit the jackpot in at least three ways: (1) With part of the moisture removed, the potatoes weigh less. Shipping charges are reduced. (2) The frozen potatoes keep muh better than unfrozen.

The quality will be as good in the spring as it is a few days after the fall harvest. (3) It takes less grease to make chips of these potatoes. The grease is a costly item in chip manufactureso the manufacturer will save money. And the cocktail guest saves on his dry cleaning bills. Greaseless Spud Chips Invented Memphis, March 30.

(IP) Science made a grand slam for the bridge hostess Wednesday. It announced how to serve salted nuts, and even potato chips, at the bridge table so the guests won't get the cards and themselves all greasy. The scientists simply lacquered the nuts with a salty lacquer, instead of dipping them In oil. This lacquer is made from pectin, found in fruit. Pectin contains both salt and oil but dries into a brittle coating.

It gives the nut a slick, attractive surface. And it comes in all colors to match the hostess' fingernails or her eyes. The new nuts were passed around by scientists of the bureau of chemistry, United States department of agriculture, who thought up the new lacquer idea. The job of these scientists is to think up new ways to make farm products more valuable. They reported on the nut idea at a meeting DELICATE CAMELLIA PETAL F0AJK BLUM SOFT, SATINY WEDGWOOD $499 1940 FORD -Ton Truck with 4-speed transmission, heater, Prestone, good rubber.
