, yi'AIKLY as ihe result of edu-
cational work by the Exten-
sion Service, Geo. P. McCarthy,
Poultry Husbandman for Texas
j A. and M, .College, says, S.OOl)
I flocks in Texas today contain
broad breasted breeders. This fig*
Lire is iiased upon jhe 19-11 hreecf-
i ing season, and represents approx-
| iriiately ten percent of the uirkey
population in Texas.
The specialist regards this
achievement as "remarkable" in
view of the short time the pro-
gram hi.', been under way.
"Tile result of the turkey im-
provement work sponsored by the
Extension Service," McCarthy
says, "was clearly reflected dur-
ing the 19-10 turkey marketing
season. Texas produce dealers
said that the quality of turkeys in
the state was the best they ever
had handled. Market demands
have been studied carefully anct
turkey producers today arc more
intoersted in producing the kind
of turkey the American housewife,
hotels, restaurants and the retail
trade as a whole want. Turkey
production in Texr.s today is ma-
turing fast and many of the grow-
ing pains eased."

A United Press dispatch from

to the British in Cairo. His> sud-

scenes Wednesday night ot violent ;
street riots led largely by students
inflamed against Yugoslavia's
membership in the Axis.
In Sarajevo, where Gavrio Prin-
^ip assassinated Archduke Franz
Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary ir.
1914, more than 1,000 rioters bat-
tled with police who tried to put
down demonstrations against: Ger-
many. The fight started when U0t>
theological students paraded, sing-
ing old Slavic hymns and crying
out against Germany.
Here in Belgrade, police bat-
tled with rioters in at least eight
separate points, making man- ar-
rests, notably among dissident stu-
dents and the reinvigoraled Comi-
taji of old-time Serbian rcvoio
lionaries.

British headquarters conceded
Wednesday night that there wer.
some German troops in an Ax>
mechanized detachment which last
Monday occupied El Aghelia, west-
ernmost point of the British spear-
hfed1 in Libya, and that there
probably were other detachment.-
in the vicinity directly westward.
This s by no means an indlctt-;
:ion of a general Gcrman-'itaiian
advance, the;/ declared, for th>-
British have J;een keeping a care-
ful watch on Germans landing .at
Tripoli, only North African harbo?
left to the.Italians and repeated-
ly attacked by he RAF.'
The latest, raids were on Mon-
day and Tuesday nights, fhe Brit-
ish reported, and caused fires aftd
explosions among government
buildings and harbor works.
