Tape Recordings
Provide Program
For Unit Session
Rogue-Elk Members and
friends of Rogue-Elk Extension
unit heard an unusual program
of tape recordings during an
open meeting held at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. Ranald Axtell,
Laurelhurst road, March 23. The
- ' ,i
the World.
Under the direction of
Mr.
and Mrs. B. Sam Taylor, Med
ford, taped talks made for exten
sion programs were presented
from Holland. England, New
Zealand and Dallas, Tex. An
ardent tape-recording lobbyist,
Mr. Taylor explained that the
plan of exchanging ideas and in
formation with people in other
parts of the world originated
with Harry Mathews of Dallas.
By way of tape, Mr. Mathews
spoke to the group and intro
duced his wife who said she ex
changed recipes from other
countries but hadn't yet been
able to try one for kangaroo
tail soup.
Miss Margery Elliott, music
teacher in a Birmingham, Eng
land, high school said that since
she lived in the second largest
city of England, she scarcely
felt qualified to speak on an
ACWW program, but was
pleased to greet everyone.
Andre Stientje of Nieuw Loos
drecht," Holland, talked . about
auto-cycles, or bicycles with mo
tors. Mr. Stientje is an interpre
ter for a large corporation. Mr.
Taylor stated that English is
rapidly replacing French as the
common language of Europe.
By way of colored slides which
accompanied the taped talk,
John McDonald, teacher in Tau
peke school, Aukland, New Zea
land, showed unit members
through his school and con
ducted them on a trip to the
black sand beaches bordering
the Tasmanian sea.
To augment their tape hobby,
the Taylors have assembled a
large collection of letters,
stamps, magazines and pamph
lets from other lands.
"People from other countries
want to know about our every
day life," said Mr. Taylor. "They
are interested in what we war,
what we had for breakfast, in
the appearance of our homes,
and they seek understanding of
us. With world understanding
will come peace."
Seventeen members of the
unit and four guests were pres
ent for the luDcheon which fol
lowed -the irorning business
meeting.

Keeping Books Said Aid
For Busy Working Wives
By GAY PAULEY
United Press Correspondent
New York (U.R) Working
wives would have more time for
home and family and more suc
cess with their jobs, if they kept
books on themselves.
This is the theory of Virginia
Conner Dick, a fragile-looking
blonde mother of two, who
laughingly concedes that she
probably is the most "sys
temized" career woman around.
Mrs'. Dick, a successful inte
rior designer, said she couldn't
crowd all she does in a busy day
without her batch of notebooks
for keeping data and dates on
everything from contents of the
attic to social engagements.
"It sometimes sounds as if I'm
so busy keeping records I've no
time for anything else," said
Mrs. Dick. "But I'll tell you, I
found it was a choice between
order and chaos."
Loose-leaf Books
The Cleveland-born designer
never throws away an engage
ment book. She has records on
such assorted items as the num
ber of yards of fabric needed
to cover the living room couch;
every gift ever given and
received; the dates on which her
children got, say, their typhoid
shots; a list of things she needs
on a trip so that packing is a
breeze; and she used to keep an
inventory of her wardrobe, but
decided it was unnecessary.
Basically, her system for mak
ing the most of time is broken
down into four loose-leaf books,
all of them of the daily diary

type kept by physicians and
others who work by strict sched
ule. One book is kept at her office,
and lists appointments for her
work day. A second book travels
with her wherever she goes, and
holds not only reminders of
things to be done but ideas she
may get while she's in a taxi or
on a train. The third is the house
hold book, which includes every
thing from an inventory of
house hold possessions to du
plicate listings of vital papers in
her wallet passport number,
driver's license, etc.
It Works For Her
"The fourth is the catch-all,"
she said. "In it, I keep things
I'm just generally interested in
. . . I don't want them to get
away." These may include any
thing from a gardening hint to
the review of a book she wants
to read.
For Mrs. Dick, the widow of
a New York business executive,
the system works. It has helped
her. to build a firm, which has
decorated private homes, offices,
showrooms, and recently even a
crematorium. She also manages
her home at Islip, Long Island,
N. Y. (she and New York's
Mayor Robert Wagner are neigh
bors on the island); and a hand
some apartment on New York's
East River. Two children, aged
six anr 10, help keep her sched
ule busy.
"I started keeping books 15
years ago as I found my life
becoming increasingly busy and
my interests broadening," she
said. "I don't know how much
time it saves me. But I do know
I used to waste a lot of it, just
trying to figure out what I was
supposed to do next."

Food Combinations Important
Nutrition Foundation States
One way to be sure of good
eating is to make calories your
friends, advises Dr. Charles Glen
King, executive director of The
Nutrition foundation. Science
continues to find evidence that
minerals, vitamins, and the
amino acids of proteins are more
efficiently used when supplied
by the calorie-containing foods
in which they occur naturally,
Dr. King states. Results of re
search caution against skipping
breakfast or other meals as a
means of cutting down on cal
ories. Besides the loss of alert
ness which follows this practice,
there is a reduction in the ef
fective use of food nutrients.

and maintaining healthy tissues
may be lost from the body.
At the University of Nebraska
the effect of proteins in meals
spaced at different intervals was
studied. When the daily supply
of protein was furnished in only
two meals, there was wasteful
loss from the body of nitrogen
ous substances needed for tissue
building. Dividing the same pro
teins evenly among three meals
restored balance and the losses
of essential nitrogen decreased,
Dr. King states.
. Another study points up this
need for timing, and emphasizes
besides the selection of calories
for the company they keep. At
the University of Wisconsin, in
vestigators found that the way
the amino acids are supplied in
the diet affects the way the body
uses them. They recommend a
ratio of amino acids as they
occur in high quality proteins,
as in rrieat, fish, poultry, milk,
cheese, and other dairy products.
Your chances for balancing
amino acids are fevored, they
say, when animal proteins are
supplied with each meal. Bal
anced combinations may also be
obtained when cereals, veget
ables, or fruits are eaten with.
animal proteins. Combinations
of cereals with milk, meat with
beans, or fruit with cheese are
examples. -r-
When body weight becomes
excessive through eating too
much and the diet is indiscrim
inately selected, calories can be
come foes instead of friends.
Whether reducing or following
another type of balanced diet,
make calories your friends by
planning meals to include high,
quality proteins, fruits, veget
ables, and whole grain or en
riched breads and cereals, Dr.
King emphasizes.
