Be-Kind-to-Hamburger Rules Given by Expert Chicago (U.R) Dad would give mother some real competi tion at the family barbecue if he'd observe a few simple be-kind-to-hamburger rules, an ex per says. Sidney Smith, eeneral mana ger of the Peter Pan snack shop cnain wmch sold more than 5,000,000 hamburgers last year, said men should "be gentler" with the ground meat. His cooking rules: 1. Never grind the meat more than twice. Try meat ground only once for extra-tender, iuici- er patties. ' 2. Pat the meat gently into shape. "Mauling and kneading . . , breaks up the meat's deli cate cell structure and squeezes out taste-giving juices." 2. "Never, never press down with a spatula during cooking. It doesn't shorten cooking time appreciably and only squeezes out the juices." 4. Turn only once to urevent juice escape, and use a wide spatula. 5. 'Remember that hambure- er meat can be sensitive as a prima ballerina. Mistreat it and you-re m for an unsatisfactory penormance. Be kind to ham burgers and they'll win you praise as a first-class cook." CLOVES SPICE PORK New York (U.R) Most of us are familiar with cloves for fla voring and decorating hams, but when used with unsmoked meats. A roast of pork takes on new flavor when cloves are used as the seasoning.

Amino Acid Use Increases Appetite Scientists Say New York (U.R) Scientists believe they have broken down the cycle responsible for child ren's poor appetite by adding an essential amino acid to the diet. From a series of controlled clinical studies, doctors found that children who drink milk or formulas containing the amino acid, lysine, gain weight and their appetites increase, some times in a day or two. Building body tissue requires more food and calls for it. That is known as appetite. If the body is not utilizing its food properly the tissues do not send appetite signals to the brain. The lysine, marketed under the trade name, "lactoford," helps the body to utilize food and stimulates the appetite, the clinical tests showed.

In "Your Newspa per, Blueprint for a Better Press," edited by Leon Svirsky, nine working newspapermen and women talk directly to the American reader concerning the three major criticisms of news papers and suggest what we as readers can do about the press.

"Newsroom Problems and Policies" are discussed by Curtis D. MacDougall in a text that is as readable and attractive as it is informative. Another basic text, practical and forward-look ing, is Charles H. Brown's "News Editing and Display." It takes into account both large- city- and small-city newspapers. giving emphasis to the social re sponsibility involved in the edi tor's work.

The suit style most becoming to a man is the one that brings his shoulders and hips into the best balance for a slim, straight up and down line, says Michael Daroff, president of H. Daroff & Sons. That simple yardstick should always be followed, he maintains. If a man has wide shoulders and narrow hips, Daroff recom mends a style with a minimum' of shoulder padding as the one which will look the best. If his waistline shows the effect of good cooking, he needs a style with enough shoulder and chest fullness to balance out his fig ure. A short stocky man will look inches taller and pounds lighter in a singie-breasted suit in a dark, or medium shade. He should avoid light colors, pro nounced patterns, wide and heavily padded shoulders, and double-breasted styles. If he is tall and thin, he will look best in a double-breasted suit in fabrics such as flannels, tweeds or sharkskins. Overall patterns, such as plaids, stripes or fleck effects will soften, his angular lines, and color in his ac cessories will help, too.

W - Advice to Women on By ELIZABETH TOOMEY . United Press Correspondent New York (U.R) Sit down before you buy that dress. This advice comes from a de signer known internationally as Mainbocher. His name, he ex plains, really is Main Bacher in honor of his Scottish grandfather, Hawley Main. He changed it when he went to Paris in the 1920s. Anyway, the Chicago-born de signer is paid staggering amounts for his knowledge of clothes by a variety of famous customers, including both society women and actresses. Has To Sit Wall A dress has to fit well, to get back to Mainbocher's advice, or the results can be unfortunate when you stand up again. i He explained that wrinkles across the front of a skirt are a sign it is too tight. Wjmen get bigger when they sit down, he hinted tactfully, and if you buy dress only looking at it stand ing up you won't realize that the girth is insufficient for your sitting-down size. Each afternoon promptly at 3 p.m., just as Mainbocher did in his Paris salon, he has models show the complete collection, "ip the same order and the same Association Warns On Aspirin Label - Chicago-CU.R) The American Medical Association says all as pirin packages should bear the clear warning, "keep out of the reach of children." The recommendation also ap plies to all other salicylate com pounds, according to a report of the 'association's Committee on Toxicology, published in the AMA Journal. ' Oil of wintergreen and aspirin are forms of salicylates most often involved in childhood poisonings, the committee re port .said. Of 113 deaths in the United States known to have been caused by salicylate com pounds in 1952, the report said, 86 occurred among children under five years of age. Forty one of these were caused by aspirin, the report added. The bases of porous flower pots can be -water-proofed with melted paraffin. . a"lis FALL QVXsi j!

Designing Actresses' Clothes Mainbocher is designing the stage wardrobe for Lynn Fon taine in "The Great Sebastians" and the wardrobe for Mary Mar tin's TV appearance later this month with Noel Coward. - - To be well dressed takes time. lots and lots and lots of time, he admitted quit frankly. Then, most women , are afflicted with prejudices. '.'The important thing is to ex press the person you are in the clothes you wear. Extreme sim plicity is not right for all women. Yet there are others who have go much authority as a person they could come out in a shift and look well dressed." When in doubt, sit down. If not to test the dress just to think about the purchase, the business like designer advised, because: "Snap decisions do not make for good choice." 'X'Marks --9&ieSj?
