'To end our special news bulletin,' said the voice of
the television announcer, 'we're going over to the
macaroni fields of Calabria.
Macaroni has been grown in this area for over six
hundred years.
Two of the leading growers, Giuseppe Moldova and
Riccardo Brabante, tell me that they have been
expecting a splendid crop this year and harvesting
has begun earlier than usual.
Here you can see two workers who, between them,
have just finished cutting three cartloads of golden
brown macaroni stalks.
The whole village has been working day and night
gathering and threshing this year's crop before the
September rains.
On the right, you can see Mrs. Brabante herself. She
has been helping her husband for thirty years now.
Mrs. Brabante is talking to the manager of the local
factory where the crop is processed.
This last scene shows you what will happen at the end
of the harvest: the famous Calabrian macaroni-eating
competition! Signor Fratelli, the present champion,
has won it every year since 1991.
And that ends our special bulletin for today, Thursday,
April lst. We're now going back to the studio.'
