That Bloom in the Spring
"Came the spring with all its
splendor '. Even the mythical
, Hiawatha aided by Longfellow
could not have dreamed "of a
more lush land than is to be
found in our part of the country
right now. The earth, the shrubs,
the orchards ... all nature is
burgeoning; promising an abun
ance of beauty . . . and of good
things to eat.
Beautiful and delicious food
flowers that bloom in the spring
are readily available, increas
ing in supply right along. Cauli
flower and broccoli are unde
veloped buds of two favorite
members of the cabbage family..
Artichokes are flower buds of a
perfectly beautiful thistle.
Rhubarb as it unfurls its
leaves of palest green on its
spike of cherry red is a thing of
beauty as well as spring eating
delight. Now for a swift descent
to practicality.

When you buy plentiful broe-!
coli, look for green color in the
heads as well as the leaves and
stems. Size of heads may vary
but this bears no relation to the
eating quality. Buy two pounds
for four servings. Wash well and
trim a bit off the stem end but
do not remove the stems. If
stems are large, cut length-wise
gashes through them. Drop
cleaned broccoli into a small
amount of boiling, salted water.
Cover and cook quickly just un
til tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
Serve at once with salt, pepper
and melted butter or blend two
tablespoons fresh lemon juice
with mayonnaise and serve over
hot cook broccoli.
Cauliflower Cookery
Cauliflower, like broccoli, be
longs to the cabbage clan. Buy
one large head (about three
pounds) of cauliflower for four
to six servings.
Enjoy Halibut Steaks
With Muslard Dumplings
Halibut is a bargain; lowest
price in years. This firm, white,
flavorful fish is very good baked
or prepared as steak like this.
Being bland it takes well to to
mato sauce and is exceptionally
good with these mustard dump
lings. Mustard, by the way,
ranks next to pepper as Amer
ica's favorite spice.
Fix Fish. Spread one large or
two medium halibut steaks with
two tablespoons butter or mar
garine. Sprinkle with salt and
paprika. Broil five minutes.
Turn and spread other side the
same. Broil another five min
utes. Keep hot. Place fish on
serving platter; surround by
sauce and dumplings.
Tomato Sauce. Simmer three
carrots (sliced thin), three stalks
celery (sliced thin), eight small
white onions and one-half cup
green peas until tender. Com
bine one No. 2 can solid pack
tomatoes and one No. 2 can to
mato juice, one tablespoon pars
ley flakes, salt, pepper, and gar
lic powder to taste. Simmer 10
minifes; add dumpling mixture.
Cook 15 minutes covered. Re
move dumplings. Add vegetables
and heat sauce thoroughly.
Mustard Dumplings. Sift
three-fourths cup corn meal, one
half cup all-purpose flour, Hi
teaspoon baking powder, one
teaspoon powdered dry mustard,
one-half teaspoon salt. Mix one
egg and one-half cup milk and
beat slightly. Add to corn meal
mixture and mix well. Add one
tablespoon melted shortening.
Drop by small spoonsful into

pounds finely chopped spinach,
add mustard butter and one-half
cup cream. Stir with fork to mix
thoroughly. Serve with hard
cooked and sliced eggs.
Rhubarb, Variations
Wonderful, colorful tart-sweet
rhubarb is best liked stewed, in
rhubarb pie or cobbler. Next
time you fix it, vary the flavor a
bit by using brown sugar instead
of white, add very thin lemon
slices or bits or add a few whole
cloves or a dash of nutmeg or
cinnamon.
Baked Asparagus
Spring Delight
Asparagus never tastes so
good as when the season is new
and the price seems sky-high.
When you've passed the stage of
delighting the family with per
fectly plain fresh asparagus with
butter, salt and pepper; then
fresh asparagus with lemon but
ter, perhaps you'll be ready for
this.
For serving six as a luncheon
or supper main dish, prepare and
cook three pounds fresh aspar
agus; arrange on oven-ware plat

margarine over spears. Place
thin slices of cheese on top, using

Hollywood (U.R) A quiet,
balding actor who worked un

from a stage
role, but Lloyd

today he still
doesn't think
of himself as a
"star."

Standard To Seek Oil Near Astoria
Astoria (U.P.) Standard Oil
Company of California will drill
for oil or natural gas at a lo
cation 12 miles from here, ac
cording to a company announce
ment here.
A representative of Standard's
San Francisco headquarters said
bids for the exploratory drilling
had already been invited. The
well would go down to a maxi
mum of 10,000 feet.
Standard has leased a large
portion of the beach dune area
and all of Crown Zellerbach
land in Clatsop county. Other
major oil companies have leased
ccunty-owned and private land.
Test wells sunk in 1920 and
1930 were unsuccessful.

reliable fixture was virtually un
noticed in the land of ballvhoo
and busts. He wanted it that '.vay
In fact, he admits, he once hired
a press, agent with instructions
not to publicize him.
Acclaimed Star
But in 1953 Nolan was ac
claimed as a stage star for his
prize role Captain Queeg in
' The Caine Mutiny Court Mar
tial." After a long New York
run the Broadway cast moved to
the new Huntington Hartford
Theater here last week. The
movie stars are turning out
in droves to cheer the hometown
boys who made good in the big
city-Nolan, Barry Sullivan and
John Hodiak.
But Nolan humbly shrugs off
the honors.
"A star is somebody who
producers know will automati
cally add to the profits at the
boxoffice," Nolan reflected as
he relaxed before curtain time
at the theater.
"I am happy not to be one It
gums up your life. Stars are
hounded and badgered until fi
nally they have a shield around
them. I can walk around any
place and hardly ever be no
ticed." His stage success has brought
his more film offers, he con
fessed. "And better , ones. I used to
get only despicable heavies or
private eyes," he added. "I'd like
to do a film this summer after
the 'Caine' closes, and I may go
back to the stage next fall."
Nolan may play "an interest
ing,, good general, not at all like
the Queeg role has given me."
Been Directing
"I've been directing sub rosa
for years so I might as well get
paid for it," he said with an
easy grin.
Tonight Nolan begins his
566th performance as Queeg.
Originally, he revealed, pro
ducer Paul Gregory wanted a
younger man for the role but
changed his mind after hearing
Humphrey Bogart would be the
movies' Queeg.
So far Nolan hasn't missed
a performance. He thinks his
year of playing private eye Mar
tin Kane on live TV in New
York was "much tougher be
cause I usually got in five fights
per show." One safety note that
makes Queeg an easier part:
Those two steel balls that 3re his
trademark are attached by a
chain he can wrap around his
hand.
"What if they were loose and
rolled into the footlights? I'd
have to get out of my chair and
pick them up, I guess," he said.
