Thursday, January 21, 1943 The Capita! Journal, Salem, Oregon Fiv O Chop Suey Party rood It looks as if there will be more rather than less entertain ing at home this season for var ious reasons. For instance, when the boys are home on furlough, it is the party at home with all the old gang there that becomes really important. Good food with a party flavor, which can be eas ily prepared and will serve a large group, is called for on these occasions. A clever hostess finds on satisfactory dish and makes it her specialty. Homemade chop suey is 'a fine main dish of this kind. It isn't hard to prepare and can be made in quantity to serve a large group or a small one. It is one of those dishes which can cheer fully wait, if you are a little in definite about when you will serve "the eats." It keeps its flavor, and you need only be sure that it is piping hot when ou serve it. Chop suey is a hearty dish, and served on fluffy rice you Won't need an elaborate menu to accompany it. Hot rolls are good, and individual pumpkin pies would be a fine dessert at this time of the year.

The thing she's worried about is the way women are losing their chance to be physically fit for war work work they must do to enable more men to leave civilian life for 'military duty. What's happening in too many places, she says, is that school administrators, intently bent on making boys fit to fight, shove their sisters out of their own gymnasium. Dr. LaSalle is traveling, about the United States appearing in U.- S. office of education insti tutes designed to encourage a hurry-up program of physical fit- nes for both sexes in high school (Later there will be a college program, too.) In New York and Boston more than 1,000 educat ors turned out for the institutes and Dr. LaSalle says they were eager to pep up the physical training program. As an expert consultant to the office of education. Dr. LaSalle is on leave of absence for a year from the East Orange, N. J., schools, where she is physical education director. . She has studied American women and children extensive ly as an expert. She was a mem ber of the White House confer ence for child health and pro tection called by President Hoov er in 1929-31. She's been in administrative work in New York and Chicago and in Ben nington, Vt. Her undergradu ate and graduate study was" at the University of Oregon and Columbia university. Training for Girls Recently a man said to her, "What do these school girls need with physical training? They're going into a factory." And that is the reason! The very reason, says Dr. LaSalle, that they do need physical train ing just as many other women will need It. They must be able to do any little job over and over and over accurately and fast. She explains the kind of en durance we women are to need more and more will be the abil ity to stand on our feet for long hours of tedious and perhaps boringly routine work. And we require greater strength of feet and abdominal walls than most of us seem to have. For more lifting, women must be stronger in the arms and shoulders. Dr. LaSalle not only found some high school girls unable to run an obstacle course but oth ers even unwilling to try. She has discovered too 'many women in uniform unable to take a three-mile walk. For reasons like that she sees special need to protect production work by training high school and college girls for physical strength now.j The best time to train women physically is at high school age, because then they develop strength. That fits them for whatever jobs they must do later.- ! Dr. LaSalle pleads that moth ers take as good care of them selves as of their children, points out that they, too, need exercise (walking will do), diet as bal anced as their baby's and suffi cient rest. , She advises mothers-to-be to take extra special care of them selves because their babies are being born in difficult days: short stays at hospitals and lit tle or no help afterward at home. And her reminder for Ameri can women' generally is that a big reason for physical strength is the fact that bodily fitness is so closely related to morale.
