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?

Dixon said the contract was

personally thanked me for what
