Frozen Foods Boon to Holiday-Busy Homemakers With the rush of the holiday season all about us, the ease and economy of frozen food products takes on additional attractive ness. Freezing has made it pos sible for us to en joy the once thought impossible "strawber ries" in December. It is hard to recall the day when ice-cream was practically our only frozen food, but it really wasn't so long ago. Today, according to a recent survey, there are over 700 frozen food products available. This tremendous availability has been made possible through the co operation of agriculture, science and industry working" towards the common goal of supplying the consumer with the best pos sible produce most economically. Watch your frozen foods de partment for best buys. Often surprisingly low prices. Keep in mind the low spoilage, no waste, easy-to-store features of these quickly prepared food products. Meat Department: The birds have it! Turkeys and chickens continue as best buys. Hams, can ned, smoked and fresh come in for "special" notice as do other pork products. Beef stays about the same with- ground beef and long slow cooking cuts at bar gain prices. Don't forget the spe cialty meats, kidneys, liver, brains, heart and sweetbreads. They are full of good nutrition and are often best buys. Grocery Department: Check the grocery department for eco nomical buys in health by way of dried fruits, nuts, honey, dried and evaporated milk ; products. Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSSY UpMed rVes Grres"4Bllt Hollywood (U.R) Debbie and Eddie are domesticated, old mar ried folks now with a boxer dog and the town's biggest fire place. Film land's No. 1 young newly weds have ar rived back in the cinema city to live while Miss Reynolds r e- JJia Mosbr turns to MGM for her first film since their wed ding and Fisher prepares for a TV spectacular on Dec. 17. . As this will be the longest time they'll stay in one spot since their marriage four months the young couple rented a house. Until they move in next week they're "at home" in the Beverly Hills hotel, where I visited them to see how the famous lovers are getting along. . Debbie answered the door. Ed die was dressing and the domes tic sound of an electric razor came from the bathroom. Room Made Homey "We tried to make this room more homey by pushing the couch in front of the fireplace," explained Debbie. "I came here three days ahead of Eddie and at last found a wonderful place to rent in the Pacific Palisades dis trict, near the ocean. Dried beans, peas, lentils, barley, rice and macaroni products go a long way in allowing that budget to stretch. Best fruit buys include red and golden Delicious apples, To kay and Emperor grapes, cran berries, oranges and persimmons. Grapefruit quality is improving with supply and price good. Cornice and Nelis pears are com ing into their own. A point to remember about pears is that firm pears are fresh pears. Buy them firm, soften at room tem perature then place in refrig erator crisper until used. Banana prices stay about the same. Best vegetable buys are root vegetables including sweet po tatoes and yams, turnips and car rots. Other good buys are onions, both small white and yellow, winter squash, celery, broccoli and spinach. Bright purple egg plant is reasonably priced as are artichokes. The house is 20 years old, has three bedrooms and is furnished in early American antiques. The big fireplace takes up an entire wall. Eddie entered and called Deb bie to breakfast by making a rhyme out of "Breakfast is ready-Debbie-Eddie." Then he talked about how excited he was doing the "History of American Songs" on the CBS-TV "Ford Star Ju bilee." Routine Adjusted "' "It's the big ham in me, to sing for an hour and a half," he grinned. "And Debbie's work ing on her picture now. It's been very easy for us to adjust to our different jobs. I'll be back here this summer, possibly to do a movie, so she can work in an other picture then." He added with a smile at his pert wife, "She's getting used to my hours. Sometimes I'll say, it's 1 p.m., Debbie, time to get up, but she'll go back to sleep until 4 o'clock!" And when do little Fishers start making the news? "Ask Debbie," said Eddie. . Debbie said, "We want a fam ily. As of now we are not ex pecting one and we don't know when we will be," and returned to eating her oatmeal. Mayor of Portland . On Municipal Board Miami, Fla.
