Where Our Customers Send Their Friends
Sign language taught
at DHS
DHS students learned some sign language last week.
Some of the important sign-language words they
learned were; ‘‘far out,”” ‘‘heavy,” ‘‘I love you,” ‘I
hate you,’’ and *‘Get a load of that chick.”
The lessons were delivered by Sherry Albert, director
of the Councelling Service for the Deaf. Sherry managed
to make her lesson very entertaining, in spite of the
rather dry subject matter. She came equipped with a
tape recorder, which blasted rock songs at the student
while their teacher danced out the words.
On Friday night, a mini-concert of music and sign
language was held at Mount Joy Vo-tech. Then
a volleyball marathon began. The marathon. sponsored
by members of the VICA club at Vo-tech, lasted 24
hours and raised a lot of money for the Deaf
Foundation.

Carrot
juice for
breakfast?
While carrot juice has
not yet replaced orange
juice for breakfast, it has
potential for doing so in the
future, according to some
recent research by USDA
Agricultural Research Ser-
vice scientists.
An estimated 20- to 24-
thousand tons of carrots
fail to meet market quality
standards and are discard-
ed each year in the South
Texas area alone. Scientists
were concerned about this
great waste and sought a
use for the discarded car-
rots.
They prepared beverages
from combinations of carrot
juice, carrot puree, whole
orange puree, grapefruit
and pineapple juices,
lemon juice concentrate,
sugar, citric and ascorbic
acids, and artificial pine-
apple and orange flavors.
A taste panel consistent-
ly rated the carrot-orange
puree plus pineapple juice
as the beverage with the
most desirable flavor. Plain
carrot juice had the least
desirable flavor.
