T SIX MZDrORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Thursday, November 24, 1955 A Nichofs Worth of Comment On This and That y HARMAN W. NICHOLS Washington (U.R! Carving a turkey i a icienc which al wayi hai been over my head. I wind up chas- inrf 1h hird . 11 nvpr the F I l ' h ft' Harman Nichols the dark meat In thin "swatches," a piece of each for sandwich. There vou've sot it. A left over snack of turkeyed with sandwiches, and you can Dixon-Yates Contract Pay To Be Challenged house. Unless there is a pro around, I gen erally go down to the corner and have a hot doe. But if you insist on pro fessional guid ance, I give you the world's champion carv er, H. L. Shrader of the Depart ment of Agriculture. He has ap peared on television, and if that doesn't make him a pro he can go back to raising pullets. Shrader subscribes to the Ffand up, shirts-off school for carvers. First off, the lady of the house has to help by trussing the wings of the gobbler underneath. This steadies the animal for the job ahead. Shrader then puts the bird on a large platter and sees that his knife is honed. - He ! grabs a drum stick with his left hand and hacks between the leg and the body, using a slightly twisting motion on the leg and srparatcs it from the body. The Best Piece Shrader doesn't let his hand siray irom the drumstick. He i c-v cuts between the first and second joints. Then comes the main carcass. You hold the bird steady by put ting the fork into the breast bone, and cut off a wing. Then you can start working on the white meat, the breast. In this you use a downward stroke. Shrader has his own ideas about who gets the best of the Thanksgiving bird. In his opin ion the "best" is the "oyster," which is located In the spoon like indentations of the back. This can be removed with the point of the knife. e As the man from Agriculture has put it before: "The carver can be described as a knave or a saint, depending on whether he saves the choice morsel for himself or gives it to the lady of the house." Remains Are Problems After the bi-carb has been ad ministered, the housewife has the problem of what to do with the remains. There are a lot of things that can be done. Like late snacks and afternoon snacks. The Pilgrim in the early. days likely had the same problems. And some tasty dishes come out of it all. Here's one of the recipes I gathered: Take the left over stuffing and put It in a chaffing dish or a covered pan in a slow oven. A little water or a boullion can be added. You can heat the gib let gravy again, too. Add butter browned mushrooms or hunks of ripe- olives to the gravy. Then you slice the white and Communists Seize British Climbers London (U.R) Chinese Com munist troops seized two British mountain climbers and their na tive guide high in the Himalayas along the Nepal-Tibet border, the expedition's sponsors re ported yesterday. The sponsors said the Britons and a Sherpa guide were seized while exploring the dangerous crests. The Foreign Office confirmed that it has ordered urgent inqiur ies into the fate of the three men. Their capture was reported in the Liverpool Daily. Post, co sponsor of the Himalayan expe dition with the Mountaineering Club of North Wales. Thje Post identified the miss ing climbers as Sidney Wignal, leader of the expedition, John Harrop," and an unidentified Sherp, one of the Himalayan tribesmen who specialize in help ing climbing expeditions. An emergency dispatch from the remaining four members of the party reported the three were seized Oct. 22 near Urai Langa Pass on the largely uncharted Tibetan-Napalese border, the paper said. add a little cranbeny salad and coffee. As one hotel chef puts it: "It makes you forget about turkey, although turkey is still on the menu. But it doesn't taste like turkey." I tried some. Why don't they fix turkey that way in the first place? Washington (U.R) The government's refusal to pay can cellation costs on the now aban doned Dixon-Yates contract will be challenged in court. The Atomic Energy Commis sion announced last night that it up stuffing ! considers the contract invalid be cause 01 a possiDie vioiauon in. the conflict of interest law in sauce, , neg0tiating it. Therefore, it con tended, the government has no obligation to make cancellation payments. But in New York, Edgar H. Dixon, president of the Missis sippi Valley Genera'vng Co. that made the contract, promptly an nounced his group would go to court to attempt to recover a re ported $3,000,000 , spent before the project was dropped. Dixon said the contract was negotiated "in the - furtherance of the policy of President Eisen hower" and that "at the time of President Eisenhower's decision to terminate the contract, he personally thanked me for what we had done." Nine sections of New Mexico once had active volcanoes and U. S. highways 66 and 380 both cross large lava flow deposits left there years ago. The 1955 government year book shows about 350,000 motor vehicles in India, one for every 1,000 persons. HORNBROOK Church Food Safe Success Hornbrook The bake sale held Nov. 18 at the Gordon Jac obs store by the Women's Soc iety of the Hornbrook Commun ity Methodist church was rated "a success" by the Society's pres ident, Mrs. Thomas Watt. The proceeds from the sale are to be applied toward the payments on the new washing machine which was recently purchased for the parsonage.
