Among our considerable ac quaintance, we know of no two persons so adequately equipped with outdoor cookery know-how and enthusiasm. Perhaps the en thusiasm is because they know how.

Skewer Cookery Outdoors or Indoors "Call it cooking on skewers, kebab cookery, cooking en brochette or just pain cooking-on-a-stick it's all the same and has been ever since Adam. Your skewers may be green twigs, wires, metal skewers, split bam boo skewers or even copies of elaborately wrought silver hate lets or swords.' Your fire may be campfire, fireplace, inside or outside grill or an inside range or rotisserie. "Your foods may be almost anything; meat, game, fish, poul try, fruit or vegetables, alone or in combination of two-or a dozen of them, strung on skewers and broiled. Sometimes these foods are marinated, sometimes mere ly brushed with oil or sauce." Here, a few combinations: "Basic Near Eastern Shish Kebab is made with boneless meat cut in Vz or two inch cubes. With lamb, mutton or veal, use the shoulder or leg; 17 juices and all of them wonderful! Simply because S &W takes no shortcuts, no leftovers -rmaket juice from fresh fruits and vegetables picked for juice and juice alone. " Siply Wonderful? Sip and see. . 4 with beef, the round, chuck ori rump. Allow one-half to three fourth pound per person. String the cubes on your skewers, hav ing them pushed close together if you want your meat rare and juicy, farther apart if all-around crispness is the system for you. "The classic way was to tip each skewer with a cube 'of bread to keep the meat from fall ing into the flames'. The meat may be simply brushed with lemon juice and with olive oil, or marinated for from two hours to two days in this mixture: "Marinade. Combine one part of lemon juice with three parts of olive oil and season with one clove of garlic, crushed, salt and pepper to taste, and, if you wish, some thyme, oregano, bay, cumin or what ,you will. The meat may be strung before or after marinating. "The broiling, which is done as for steaks and chops, will take from 10 to 16 minutes, de pending on how well done you want them. Shisk kebat is usual ly served with pilaff or with kasha or rice. But suit yourself." "Shish Kabab. Greek Fashion.

Many of father's favorite recipes are included in Charcoal Grilled Fruits and Vegetables A whole new world of out door cookery opens up in "Out door Cookery" chapter on Fruits and Vegetables. Helen Brown and James Beard remind us that "charcoal cookery need not end with meats, fish and game. Many fruits and vegetables take on exciting new flavor when sub jected to slow roasting over or in the coals. "There are two ways to cook fruit; the first is to broil it on the Thwrsday.

We borrow from the book: "Broiled Apples. Cut apples in thick rings and dip in butter, Broil on both sides, using a hinged broiler. Sprinkle with sugar before serving. "Broiled Bananas. ..Peel bananas and cut in half cross wise. Wrap each half in a piece of bacon and broil until crisp. You'll like them with broiled chicken or with ham. - "Roasted Corn. This of course is the most popular of charcoal cooked vegetables. Pull back the husks, remove all silk, replace husks and tie their ends to- gether. Soak corn in cold water for at least 30 minutes before roasting on the grill. The ears should be turned 2 or three times and will take 10 or 15 miniites over a hot fire. We like to add our butter and seasonings while .we eat. ' "Roasted Potatoes. Scrub bak ing-size potatoes and bury in the coals for 45 minutes or until done when pierced with a fork, The skins willbe black but the insides will be wonderfully ten der and flaky. Lots of butter is in order. Pop Likes Molasses Flavor in Baked Beans A favorite editor asked for a recipe for baked beans "with a dark brown taste" like Father used to fix. (How's that for a switch on Mom's cooking.) Mak ing it really easy for him, we started out with two one-pound cans of baked beans, think we have something he, and you, will like. We picked canned beans be cause the long preparation has been done by the canner. We gained spicy, distinctive flavor by using old-fashioned un- sulphured molasses, a bit of vine ar, a dash of tabasco. Use either New England style or beans in tomato sauce. Or use one can each of baked beans and kidney beans. Vi cup unsulphured molasses 1 tablespoon vinegar 2 tablespoons prepared mustard Vi teaspoon tabasco 2 1-pound cans baked beans 1 onion, .sliced Combine unsulphured molasses vinegar, mustard and tabasco: mix well. Empty beans into skil let or casserole; stir in molasses mixture. Arrange onion slices on top of beans or layer with beans. Bake in hot oven, 425 degrees, 30 minutes. Four generous serv ings. Deviled Ham Steak Brown and Beard in their "Outdoor Cookery", do a ham steak like this; suggest that it be served with a bean casserole and charcoal roasted bananas. They also think that , beer, is pretty special with this. We're confi dent that Father will agree. "Choose a fine center cut of ham, about Wi inches thick and cover with a good brushing of English mustard (combine one tablespoon of dry mustard with one-fourth teaspoon of salt and enough white wine or wine vinegar to make a paste). Grill the steak over a low fire, turning it fairly often. It should take about 45 minutes at slow cook ing. " ' , "About five minutes before you feel that the ham is ready for the table, brash both sides with a mixture of mustard and honey one teaspoon of mustard to two tablespoons of honey is about the right proportion. Turn the ham several times to allow this mixture to form a . glaze. Slice in medium-thin diagonal slices. Ham is also good basted with the syrup from a jar of preserved ginger.": Drill's U-DrivB Medford Airport ligher Milk Prices For Producers Demanded Portland (U.R) A demand for higher milk prices to pro ducers has been voiced here by two groups which said they want a one-cent-per-quart increase.'
