Fruits induded are sweet cherries, apricots, peaches and apples. • "Steps in processing of frozen food can be summar­ ized into a few which you can use in your own home," says Dr. Bedford. For an example of what happens to a vege­ table in order that it can be eaten in winter and still have a fresh garden flavor, lets look at spinach. A quality of spinach received just after harvesting is thoroughly washed and trimmed. After the spinach has M been trimmed, it is scalded one to two minutes in bOiling water at the ratio of about one pound of spinach to two gallons of water. 'The period of scalding depends on the f:;ize of the leaves and the length of the period which the regetable will be stored. For longer storage the maximum scalding time js used. Dr. Bedford emphasized the importance of scalding saying that it is p.ecessary to inactivate the enzymes in the vegetable which cause undesireable color and flavor End also the destruction of certain vitamins, ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) and carotene (Pro-Vitamin A) .

The spinach is spread in a thin layer over a tray, mesh screen or cloth, and can be left without harm for as much as a half hour. When the product is cool enough to go into the freezing pa,ckages, it will be free of the excess water that clings to it when cooled in a water bath. The spinach is packaged by h~nd. Once in the pack­ age it is !>ealed and then taken to the freezing room which doubles as a storage room. The spinach is frozen and held at zero degrees F. Samples are remeved periodically to determine the ef­ fect of storage on the vitamin content, freshness, flavor, and original texture and color. From 100 to 120 twelve-ounce packages are put up for anyone study. These have been kept up to a period of five years with satisfactory results; however, preserva­ tion of fruit and vegetables for home use for more than Gne year is usually impractical. Tests, carried out in both the home ec and hort labs, have shown that although the canned vegetable may re­ tain slightly more Vitamin C after long storage periods, the freezing process is the best method of preserving the freshnes:3, the original color and the natural flavor of the spinach. These results apply not only to spinach, but SCIENTIFIC ANALYSIS - Miss Margaret A.

Speaking from experience, your writer can honestly say without biased feeling that W.S.C. is fortunate enough to have the smartest coach in the Northern Di­ vision. You would be hard pressed to ~ind a single aspect of the game that Jack could not vividly present to you-how to shoot a hook shot­ how to work a fast break-yes, even how to check a pivot man. Checking pivot men recalls to your writer's mind the Wyoming-W.S.C. game of last season. Wyoming had a 6'10" ~enter named Roberts and a 6'6" forward with hands like suitcases named Todorvich. "Hands" Todor­ ovich teamed up with "beanpole" Roberts and if our pivot man checked from behind, Roberts would get the ball and drop it in the basket; where­ as if our pivot man checked in front, Todorovich would lob the ball to Roberts and he would drop the ball through the bucket anyway. Friel solved the problem by having your writer keep running in a circle around Roberts, which proved to be the solution ne2ded. Robert's t eam­ mates never knew when and where to pass the ball. It is such simple but unique strategy that makes Jack Friel the shinning light in the coaCh­ ing circles of the Northwest. But now lets consider the outlook COACH JACK FRIEL
