Withered Red Rose Only Clue
To Beauty s Vanishing at Sea
London, Dec. 6 (U.R) Detectives sought new clues today to ex
plain the mysterious disappearance of Gwenda McCallum, beau
tiful 20-year-old Australian girl who vanished at sea from the
28,164-ton Orient liner Orcades.
A withered red rose was their only clue so far.
Peter Patrick Keith Cameron,
SO, a government clerk on leave
from Fiji, told a board of in
quiry of the ministry of trans
port that Miss McCallum came
aboard the liner with friends at
Sydney and apparently stowed
away.
Cameron paid her passage by
special arrangement with the
purser and gave her a pair of
pajamas, he said. He visited
her for about two hours on the
night of her disappearance and
then returned to his own cabin,
Cameron said.
The next day the girl had dis
appeared. Her clothing was in
her cabin but Cameron's pajam-
Bread Like a Wet Sponge
May Be Only Half-Baked
Heppner, Ore., Dec. 6 VP) A loaf of bread that is easily
squeezed like a wet sponge may be only half baked dough
and not necessarily fresh bread.
That was the advice to housewives from Richard Baum, market
analyst for the Oregon wheat commission who spoke to the Ore-
Baum brought up the subject
while discussing what he said
was the poor quality of bread
the average household consumes
daily. He also urged the Oregon
wheat ranchers to grow a better
quality grain.
The matter ol mama squeez
ing the loaf came out when
Baum said the housewife is
much to blame for the poor
quality of bread she puts on the
family table.
'The average housewife has
fallen into a faulty buying hab
it and uses a squeeze test in
selecting a loaf of bread. The
loaf which feels the spongiest
is selected as the freshest. This
not true. Spongy bread is
not fresh bread but only half
baked dough," Baum explained.
He accused bakers of using
chemical bread softeners to re
place fats, eggs and milk in the
dough.
John Locke, Seattle, president
of the Millers National Federa
tion, said the milling industry
would back the league in its cer
tificate plan for a two-price sys
tem on wheat. He said the pro
posal could help .the northwest
recapture lost export and do
mestic markets.
Locke criticized the parity
differentials that had permitted
southern Idaho grain to capture
the California market, which he
said was traditionally supplied
by Washington and Oregon.
A Baker county delegation s
resolution urging speedier pro
gress on the Snake river Hell s
canyon project won by a narrow
margin after a lively debate.
Those opposed said they weren't
certain where the league should
stand on the issue and wanted
to study the proposal further.
as were gone. A red rose was
lying on the window ledge of
her cabin. Cameron said it was
not there when he left.
Cameron said three men pass
engers came to his cabin that
night and asked him to join
them in a drink. He refused, he
said, and understood later that
they had gone to Miss McCal
