r #U. S. Frozen Foods Intrigue Sovicts.f
One of the top attractions to the two-and-a-half million Soviets
attending the American National Exhibition in Moscow was tHte
demonstration of U. S. frozen foods and dessert mixes by an inter-
national team of
nine women ... [ J
three British,
one Pakistani
and five Ameri-
cans.
The aroma,
color, freshness
and availability
of the frozen
vegetables and
fruits was a con-
stant source of
amazement to
visitors. For 80
years, the U. S.
frozen foods in*
dustry started
by Clarence'
Birdseye has en-
abled Americans
to enjoy seasonal
crops year round.
Yet, to the'Soviet
people this bit of
Americana rep-
resents some-
thing very much
out of the ordi-
nary. "

A high riding Bogata Bulldog
team rang up their first victory
of the season Thursday night,
tromping the Bells eleven 42-0.
In the runaway game the
passing arm of Donnie Screws
plainly told the story, as Screws
hit receivers time after time
for long yardage and scoring
plays.
Bells took the kickoff, but
was unable to get moving and
the ball passed to Bogata.
Screws handed off to Glover for
a first down on the first play,
and set the trend of the game.
Enable to gain in line plays the
locals lost control, and Bells
attempted to get roling with a
slow, steady march down the
field. Youree guided he visitors
through three first downs, and
the boys seemed to be rolling
for the first score with a 1st
and 10 on Bogata’s 15 when a
fumble cost’ them their best
scoring opportunity of the
night. *
Bogata started a similar at-
tempt down the field, Only to
lose out with a fumble. Bell
recovered, but was unable to
capitalize. Bogata took over and
Screws carried from his own
15 to ring up the first score of
the game.
Bogata failed in trying for
extra points throughout the
game. Only two plays later
Skip Glover intercepted a Bells
pass and took off for a 20 yard
scoring run.
Bogata closed out the first
half 12-0.
In the second half Screws
opened things properly by re-
turning the Bells kick 85 yards
for a touchdown. From then on
it was Bogata all the way.
Whitten went over on a line
plunge; Screws hit Glover for
a tally; fqllowing up a short
time later with a short pass to
Stewart for 6 points.
The Bogata team meets 'La-
donia here tomorrow night for
a rough game. The Rattiers
art riding a wave of confidence
eftes tromping Cooper last
week; and are meeting a Bull
dog team primed to start a
string with them. Game time
is 8 p m.

IJ()ME( OM1NG PLANS
UNDERWAY
Various committees are meet
ing this week to work out plans
for Homecoming, scheduled for
Saturday, October 10th.
No final plans have been
made, but things are shaping
up for a very fine program for
everyone to enjoy.
A strange sight made' lots of
t-xeitment for Bogataians Wed-
nesday. Casual observers made
wild guesses as to what it was
ter a while, ranging from “Men
from Mars” to "Hobos from
Deport”. It turned out to be
the Future Homemaker Annual
Initiation, with the girls all
“dressed up” for the ocassion.
Ball caps on backwards, dres-
ses worn wrong side out, onions
around their necks, signs of
“help the poor and needy”, one
foot clad with a woman’s sock
and mans shoe, and the other
with a woman's shoe; carrying
tin cups and boxes; the girls
put on quite a show for all
who were downtown Wednes-
day.
The money collected was do-
nated to the FHA Fund, so it
was well worth while—not to
mention everyone having lots
of fun!
CARD OF THANKS
We wish to express our ap
predation and thanks to each
and everyone who showed so
much love and kindness to us
during the passing of our loved
cnc. We also thank each one
v. ho contributed so much nice
food.
