Manafort can win the Republican nomination for District 6 congressman on ond or third, ballot at the convention in Torrington today, sources close to him claimed Friday. They discounted reports that Richard Kilbourn of Morris will pick up a majority of the 202 delegates on the first ballot. The local Republicans agreed that Kilbourn might run at the top of the four candidates on the first ballot but they claimed he will not receive a majority and thereafter delegates will swing to the local mayor.

On the other hand, Eugene Marchand, campaign manager for Kilbourn and chairman of the Bristol Republican Town Committee, is contending that his candidate will win on the first ballot, with about 120 votes. The other two candidates for seat being vacated by U.S. Rep. Thomas J. Meskill are Patsy Piscopo of and Harold R.

Weeders Guide Cabbage Invades Area Of Ornamental Plants By EARL ARONSON An invader from the vegetable world is becoming a popular ornamental plant for flower lovHers.

You won't find it on the vegetable stands in the super-market but "Flowering Cabbage" is becoming quite a conversation piece in the home or back yard. Formally known as brassica olcracca acephala, Flowering Cabbage is a thick glacucous perennial of European ancestry. When you think of cabbage, you get a definite vision of rounded, solid green bit of duce. But Flowering Cabbage is quite different. It has loose, sprcading leaves forming an open rosette with striking shades of ivory-white to rosypurple in the center.

In short, it is a large, showy flower. This pretty cabbage is equally SAO JOSE do GOIABAD, Brazil (UPI)-Until not: much more than a month ago, few persons outside its iminediate area had ever heard of Sao Jose do Goiabal, a small town 'of 3.000 persons 120 miles north of Rio de Janeiro in the Bio Doce Valley. It doesn't show on most maps. It was not on any bus or train routes. Its people, mostly farmers, went about their work unnoticed by most of the- world.

Its lone filling station often went days without 'a car stooping by. Early in May all of that changed. Two buses daily now make their way here from Belo Horizonte, capital of Minas Gerais State. On weekends as many as 40,000 people "stream into the town. Miracle in the Making What changed Sao Jose do Goiabal were small drops of water seeping out of the tomb of the deceased vicar of the parish, Father Francisco Hermelindo Ribeiro.

A popular priest. Ribeiro died in 1962 at the age of 62. Townsmen say that for' a long time it had been noticed, but not especially remarked, that 'small drops of water flowed from cracks in the tomb. But a few weeks ago water also began to flow from a small crucifix on the vault. Rurnor spread that a miracle was the making.

Villagers and townspeople from throughout Minas" Gerais began to visit the tomb. Word was passed from mouth to mouth that the water droplets from the crucifix possessed miraculous powers. Geraldo Ribeiro do Nascimento, a 65-year-old paralytic from the town of Coronel Fabricaciano. visited the tomb with his wife Cristina last month to drink some of the magic drops. He claims they cured him.

Paul Rutter, chief horticulturist at Florida Cypress Gardens, says it is easy culture. Most of all it needs full sun, moderately fertile soil and weekly applications of a water soluble fertilizer with a high trogen-potash, low phosphrous ratio to produce the best results.

"Propagation is most easily accomplished by planting seeds in a sterile media, later transplanting them when they have aldeveloped two or three leaves," pro-'Rutter explained.
