HOLDING HIS OWN IN SQUASH: Six-year-old Jack Beck (right) appears to be having a hard time holding one of eight giant squashes which grew up mysteriously from an old compost pile in his yard. Jack's older brother, Don (left), who claimed ownership of the garden's rarities, holds one of two squashes which the Jay K. Beck family of 715 Virginia Ave., Ypsilanti, planted. Jack and the squash he holds both weigh exactly the same - 42 pounds. The eight "wild" squash together weigh some 200 pounds.
