TWELVE The Gazette-Times, Wheat growers seek representative recipe A search has started in Oregon for "a product that will be a symbol of Oregon wheat production", according to Frank Tubbs, Adams wheat farmer and chairman of the Oregon Wheat Commission. Oregon wheat growers pre dominately produce a class of soft white wheat that is used for making fine pastry prod ucts such as cakes, cookies and pastry flour. About 80 per cent of Oregon's wheat is exported to Asian countries where it makes various spec iality products such as nood les, sponge cakes and unleav ened bread products. "In the United States," said ' Tubbs, "we use our Oregon wheat generally for pastry products. I is only fitting that we call our contest an "Ore gon S'Wheat Roll" contest." Original recipes are sought, according to Mrs, Helene Holcomb, staff member of the Oregon Wheat Commission. She said that any recipe can be submitted for the contest as long as it uses wheat flour and is original. "The recipe must be indivi dually created," she said, "and cannot be the property of another person or firm." Judging of the contest will be by professional home economists selected by Ivan Packard, administrator of the Oregon Wheat Commission. Recipes will be judged on creativity, good product use, practicality, texture, flavor, attractiveness, completeness and clarity. Six finalists will be chosen and participate in a bake-off to be held in Portland. Expenses of the finalists will be paid for the bake-off. The date of the bake-off has not been announ ced. Prizes for the "S'Wheat Roll" winner will be $100 and a silver tray for the first place winner, second prize will be $75, with third prize being $50. Fourth, fifth and sixth prizes will be $25. Contest deadline is Jan. 31, 1979. Entries are to be mailed to the "S'Wheat Roll Contest", Oregon Wheat Commission, P.O. Box 400, Pendleton, Oregon 97801. Full informa tion and contest rules are also available at the same address. Major Myers attending AF school Marine Major Lonnie M.

Heppner, Oregon, Thursday November 30, 1978 "This is an original pro motion," said Tubbs.
