(Continued from pag 1.)
the family is made as follows,
lows:
Clieckrrbourd ke
2 (tips sugar
cup butter or substitute
4 eggs
3 cups Princess flour
1 cup milk
Vi cup cornstarch
3 teaspoons baking powder
l teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla
Method: Cream butter thor
oughly, add sugar and continue
creaming. Add well-beaten egg
yolks, then add milk and sifted
dry ingredients alternately. Beat
well and ad vaiflla. and lastly
fold in the stiffly beaten egg
whites.
Put one-third of the batter in
another bowl and add $ table
spoons unsweetened cocoa.
Put a circle of white batter
around the edg of a layer cake
pan. then a circle of the dark
mixture inside of that circle, and
place a ring of the light In the
center. Fill another layer pan in
the same way bat alternate the
colors of the dough in the third
pan so that when put together
the two similar layers are placed
above and below the odd one.
A "Checkerboard Cake" made
with pink and white. IceS in pink
icing and decorated with pink
candles will cause any child's eyes
to sparkle with pleasure and ap
proval., f
The batter of this cake mus
be unusually stiff in order to
keep the two colors from running
together. According to Mrs.
Cummins, who. Judging from the
appearance of the cake which she
made, is an authority on such
matters, the cake should not be
cut ntn the second day, the
two colon will not appear as dis
tinct If cat while too fresh.
A number of Invaluable little
suggestions were interspersed
with the recipes given by the two
women and jotted down on the
slips of paper which each guest
brought.
Another cake that Is sure to
please the father and the chil
dren of any family as well as the
housewife herself, as may be
judged from the name, is called
"Lightning Chocolate Cake."
This cake is made with sour
milk instead of sweet. 'The re-i
suiting product is more moist al
though of a slightly coarse grain
and will keep for several days
without becoming too dry to be
palatable.
The cake is truly well-named
as the following recipe and method
will prove:
1 Vi cups Princess Flour
1 cup sugar
cup Ghirardelli's chocolate
Sift the above named ingre
dients together three times, the
third time in a mixing bowl. Make
a depression in the center of the
ingredients and break in 1 egg
and add 1 cup sour milk in whicl
I scant teaspoon soda has been
dissolved. Add one-third cup o!
melted butter and beat for three
minutes.
Bake in two layers in a shallow
loaf tin.
Miss Murdoch advised 'all the
women to be " Scotch" In measur
ing the soda for too much soda
'n combination with the sour milk
and chocolate results in a dis
agreeable "soda" flavor.
Among the products usej In the
cookery each day have bee

CROWD SWEPT BY BIG
WAVE IN FRISCO BAY
'Continued from ps 1.)
ommuters failed to return to
h.-ir homes anxious relatn

-once.
Lieutenant W. F. Pen gel ly of a
police launch that cruised the bay.
reported that life preservers, hats.
oats and other garments dotted
the waves but that no bodies had
'loen found.
The seven persons rescued by
ife boats from the ferry boat
lay ward were brought to Sar
''i ancisco, where they were treat
d for submersion and quickly re
rived.
A navy boat from Goat Island
vas reported to have rescued
oven persons, the lumber schoon
r saved several and the other.
were believed to have been saved
! other vessels.
Potter said he believed the acci
dent was due to a heavy wash that
iwept along after a large lunibet
schooner passed tlie Peralta. .A
woman was washed overboard j
Potter said, two men jumped tc j
,ave her and a panic resulted.
Life Boats Rushed
Two life boats were lowered at
once by the lumber schooner and
the ferry boat liayward launched!
two more boats. Potter said.
Police stationed at the ferr
building here, where several ol
the rescued were brought for
treatment, announced their belief
that the accident was not as ser
ious as at first reported.
Police Lieutenant Martin A
Fogerty said he thought that none
had been drowned. He said the
attendant excitement was respon
sible for the reports that as high
as thirty persons had perished.
There Is confusion as to the
number of persons taken from the
bay after scores were said seen
swept from the deck of the Per
alta. The number rescued varied
from thirteen to nineteen. The
ferry boat Hayward, it is said
rescued seven persons and six of
these were said to have been put
aboard the Peralta.
Uncertainty Prevails
Whether the six taken aboard
the Peralta were rescued by Per
alta life boats or an additional
lot of six passengers were saved
by small boats ot the United
States navy could not be certainly
ascertained tonight.
Captain George Landenberger,
USN. commandant -of the naval
training station on Goat Island,
described the accident aboard the
Peralta as follows:
"The ferry boat was down by Its
head, burled Into a swell and it
shipped a sea. We sent out a
rescue party In the captain's gig.
along with two other boats which
picked up five cr six persons from
the water and, at their request,
put them aboard the Peralta.
"The , swell may have been
caused by another vessel," Cap
tain Landenberger said. "One of
the smaller ferry boats that run
during the crowded hours had put
out from Key Route pier and was
passing. The accident occurred
between the island and the pier.
"The navy has no knowledge of
anyone having been drowned."
Police Report Confirms
Lieutenant W. F.. Pengelly of
the San Francisco police force.
who cruised the , bay . In a police
launch after the accidents said I
SILVERTO
sen
that in his opinion none of those
who were swept or jumped Into
the water was drowned.
On the other hand several of
those who were in the water and
a number of witnesses believed
tiat several persons were drowned.
The Peralta, jammed with com
muters was enroute from San
Francisco to Oakland when off
Yerba Buena island In the bay
the front of the boat suddenly
dipped as though struck by a
mammoth wave. Seven persons
were almost immediately picked
p by life boats from the ferry
hnat Harvard which passed as the
boat Hayward which passed
Peralta nose dived. Tfcp re
malnder of those swept into the
water were unaccounted for.
Darkness was falling and visibil
ity was poor.
Steward Georee F. Colond of
the harbor emergency hospital
where some of the Injured were
taken said he was told by pas
sengers that at least eight per
sons were seriously injured.
The Peralta left the San Fran
cisco ferry building at 5:15 p. m
and was due in Oakland at 5:30
p. m.
Crowd Gathers in Bow
Off Verba Buena. or Goat Isl
and, the hundreds of passengers
heean to swarm to the front of
the boat. A man named Garver,
a passenger on the Peralta said
that suddenly a huge wave washed
up over the boat and carried a
large number of passengers into
the water. In panic the commut
ers then rushed to the stern of
the ship, at which it righted it
self. Women screamed, men
shouted and everybody tried tc
grasp a rail.
Passengers said the Peralta
gave a "sickening lunge" when it
dipped.
Windows in the lower deck
were swept out like paper as the
green water boiled over the rail
ing. !
Xegro Real Hero
Many acts of heroism were dis
played. Among the impromptu
heroes was an unidentified negro
waiter on the ferry boat Hay
ward which passed just as the
Peralta dipped. The negro with
presence of mind broke opeu the
life preserver cases and began
throwing the preservers to the
people struggling in the water.
Passengers said someone ap
parently an officer on the Hay
ward tried to stop the waiter but
passengers on the Hayward in
terfered in behalf of the negro
who did everything possible to aid
in the rescue.
It was from the Hayward that
first reports of the water were
received. Among the reports was-
the statement from several pas
seiiKers that as much as eight
minutes elapsed before life boat:
could be launched on the Hay
ward.
Navy men from Goat Ilanc
were quick to respond and at least
five survivors were said to havt
been picked up by navy boats
Some of the survivors were takei
back to the Peralta.
All Key Route service stopped
after the accident until furthei
jrders.
Scenes of wild disorder followec
the disaster. Women knelt ot.
he decks of the ferry boat anc
grayed, others screamed hysteric
ally, while men rushed about
frantically as the ferry crew hur
ried to lower life boats.
The Peralta was one of the new
st ferries in the Key Route sys
tern. It was said to be water bal
anced. the loads being equalize
by a flow of water from "balane
ing tanks" on the craft. Thes.
were said to be automatic in oper
-dtion.
Dan O. Hunter; a passenger oi.
a passing boat, said the Peralu
appeared to "dip" in the bow anc
i he passengers standing on th
deck were dipped beneath the
water momentarily. The craft re
versed engines and the boat lev
led itself in a few seconds.
The accident happened as th
Peralta was passing Yerba Bleua
'sland. The Peralta left ban rran
-isco at 5 p. ni. and was due at th
Kev Route pier. Oakland, whicl
extends far Into the bay, at 3:15
From that point trains carry com
muter the east bay district
homes.
After the accident the ferry boat
Hayward. owned by the Key Rout
company, drew close to the scene
and lowered life boats and threw
life preservers to the men anc"
women floating and attempting tc
swim to safety.
This effort resulted in the pick
ing up of six passengers, leaving
the total estimates missing ot
drowned at a possible 21.
The "dtp" of the Peralta took
place with such amazing sudden
ness that passengers were given
no opportunity to flee to the stern
of the boat.
It was Indicated tonight that
many hours would elapse before
the number of known dead or the
names of those drowned would be
available.
I There was no warning of the
disaster, Miss Violet Rheln, a
teacher of Concord, said. She was
a passenger on another ferry boat.
"There was no warning and the
people were In the water in a sec
ond," she said.
Hundreds of life preservers!
were hurled overboard by passen
gers to aid the victims struggling:
In the water. The rescue boats1
endeavored to reach the sides of
the victims struggling in the dark
ness.
Two San Francisco ambulances
were hurried to the ferry build
ing here to aid in reviving the vic
tims as they were brought ashore.
Five persons picked up after the
disaster were brought ashore on
the ferry boat Hayward. The pas
sengers had suffered from sub
mersion, but were quickly revived
