I. McOnich set fire to the “rubbish.” Init, Mr. McOnich spied a hand - grenade. Calling for help, the sheriff call- ed on a naval demolition expert who said the hand-grenade was a live American weapon. Also in the pile was a live Japanese grenade, a .37-mm. anti-tank shell and 200 rounds of Japanese machine-gun cartridges. The Mc- Oniches were unable to say where the explosives came from or how they got in the trunk. Creamed white onions may bé combined with hard-cooked eggs for a luncheon casserole; sprinkle with grated yellow cheese and put undér the broiler or in the oven until the cheese is lightly browned.
