FYE SPUD FUTURE:
Potatoes May Be Glamorized
With Improved New Look'
WASHINGTON, Nov. 12 -OP)-
What the potatoes of this coun-
try need is a new look.
And the Department of Agticul-
ture, the best friend the potato
ever had, is out to make sure
that it gets one.
Maybe you always have-thought
that:
1. The potato is okay as it is,
or
2. As far as the potato is con-
cerned, you can take it or leave
it.
Potato Complexions
It's this second proposition that
has the Agriculture people as pale
and sickly looking as, well, res-
taurant potatoes.
Too many people are leaving it.
So, says a bulletin from the
Department of Agriculture, a re-
search program has been started
to see if the potato can't be im-
proved from a consumer's stand-
point.
Specialized Spuds
By the time they have finished
their work, the agriculture .spe-
sialicts hope they can tell which
potato is best for baking, for
boiling, for frying, for salads.
If you think getting excited
about' a potato- is sort of silly,
you don't know your potatoes.
They're the No. 1 table product
in this country, and principal food
in many parts of the world.
On the average, every man,
woman and toddler in the U.S.
First Charter
Flight Service
Started Here
A newly formed Ann Arbor or-
ganization announced yesterday
the opening of the only air travel
charter service in the immediate
area.
Sky Service Inc., counting two
University students among its per-
sonnel, has initiated charter flight
service from Ann Arbor Airport
to any destination.
The service will employ the
Beach "Bonanza," a four-seat
plane, with a cruising speed of
approximately 160 mph. and a
range of 500 miles. The "Bonan-
za" has a baggage capacity of 100
bounds.
John Harper, student of aero-
nautical engineering and public
relations manager for the service,
pointed out that the service should
prove especially valuable to stu-
dents desiring to make trips to
points beyond regular airline
routes.
Donald Jennings, also a student
in the University's aeronautical
engineering department, is the
service's flight dispatcher and
general manager.
Harper said that students anA
eats potatoes at the rate of three
bushels a year.
A potato famine in Ireland sent
the U. S. one of its largest groups
of immigrants. A fuss over Bava-
rian food supplies brought on the
potato war of 1778-1779.
And in this country, during de-
pressions, we stop eating more
costly meats and switch to the
potato.I
