Feeding the Family
By ZOLA VINCENT
Food Editor
Frozen Pineapple
Crunch. Party Dessert
This refrigerator dessert,
frozen pineapple crunch, is per
fect for parties; fine for the
family, too. You'll like the
pleasant blend of flavors of
caramel-crunch topping and
juicy pineapple using the crush
ed and drained canned pine
apple. This is best when made
the day before which will make
it a favorite for smart planners
ahead. 2 egg yolks
1'3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup drained crushed pineapple
(14 oun:e can)
2 egg whites, stiffly beaten
Vi cup heavy cream, whipped

double boiler until thick and
lemon colored. Beat in sugar
and lemon juice and cook over
hot water, stirring frequently,
until thickened (about 10 min
utes). Fold in drained crushed
pineapple, stiffly beaten egg
whites and whipped cream. Turn
into one-quart refrigerator tray;
cover with crunch topping
(recipe below). Freeze overnight.

cream if you like. Eight serv

brown sugar, two cups corn
flakes, one-half cup chopped
nuts; heat, stirring, until butter
milk and sugar caramelized
slightly. Top pineapple mixture;
proceed as above.
Wilted Cabbage
Wilted lettuce has long been
a western favorite. Ever try
wilted cabbage? It is very good.
Shred cne medium size head of
cabbage. Fry six slices bacon
until crisp; drain and crumble.
Combine green onions, two table
spoons of bacon drippings, two
eggs, slightly beaten, one cup
light cream or half and half and
one-fourth cup lemon juice in
saucepan. Heat, stirring con
stantly until mixture thickens.
Season with one teaspoon each
of sugar, salt and pepper. Pour
over cabbage and toss well.
Sprinkle with bacon and serve
immediately. Six servings.
Fresh Dates. Those cellophane
wrapped fresh California dates
will keep almost indefinitely if
refrigerated. Take advantage of
the special sales and keep some
handy for nibbling and for add
ing to puddings, cookies and
salads.
Breakfast Crumb Cake
Breakfast Crumb Cake
the increasingly popular mid
morning or late-evening "coffee"
when good neighhbors get to
gether. Eight servings, so there
may be enough left over for
the children's lunch or to reheat
next morning.

Easy Extars for
The Salad Bowl
Plentiful vegetables in great
variety and color tones add in
terest to western salad bowls
in ways like these.
Beets. Shredded raw beets add
color to any green salad. Sprin
kle over, after tossing the salad
and just before serving to keep
color from spreading.
Broccoli. Broccoli florets, cut
f ie, add good flavor and unusual
crunchiness to salad.
Cabbage. Both green and red
cabbage, shredded, are attrac
tive, flavorful in green salads.
Carrots. Shred, chop or grind
carrots to add sunshine to any
salad. Celery and green pepper
are flavor accents for carrots.
Cauliflower. Add a few snowy
white bits of raw cauliflower to
a tossed salad for contrast.
Celery. Green or white celery
goes with everything. Use lots
of it including some of the finely
cut leaves.
Chicken on Every Table;
Markets Feature Broilers, Fryers
There's a big push on broilers
and fryers. A bonanza of good
aating at low cost because poul
try production is almost 50 per
cent higher than a year ago. The
family can really have their fill
of fried chicken without any
damage to the budget. While
you're about it, why not fry a
double batch of chicken; put
aside half of it for enjoying cold
a day or two later. Cold fried
chicken with bread and butter
sandwiches goes a long way to
ward making a fine meal
whether served at home or car
ried to school or to work.
Fresh or frozen, whether pur
chased whole or in spare parts,
these plentiful birds can be
broiled, fried, baked, barbecued.
Hen fruit, reri Cv-inuonly
known as ezz-, continue plenti
ful with prices rl.owing a slight
trend upward. Treasonably priced
bacon along with a couple of
eggs will send Father to work
and growing children to school
far better fortified to fight the
daily battles.
Meat prices continue low for
economy cuts; reasonable for
steaks, chops and roasts. Beef
bargains are found in freshly
ground beef for the making of
hamburgers, meat loaves, Swed
ish meat balls, spaghetti with
meat and other good things.
Cuts for pot roasting are many
and low in cost; practically make
a meal when potatoes, carrots
and onions are added during the
last 30 minutes of long slow
cooking. Short ribs are a bar
gain; very good cooked IVi to
two hours in a barbecue sauce,
either on very low heat or in a
moderate oven. Lamb is plsnti
ful. Consider lamb shoulder,
lamb shanks, lamb patties or
lamb curry.
Fish variety is good with spe
cial emphasis on new season sea
bass, rockfish, halibut, trout and
shrimp. If fresh shad is avail
able in your market, have fish
man bone it for you and prepare
for fish treat of the season.
Plenty of lemons on hand, of
course.
Vegetable and fruit supplies
are about the same. More aspara
gus coming in. More new pota
toes in both red and white skins.
Asparagus and new potatoes arc
perfect for serving with those
plentiful fryers and broilers.
Snowy white cauliflower looks
good. Cabbage, carrots, yellow
onions of medium size, lettuce,
small artichokes and cucumbers
make menu planning easy. Fruit
buys are apples, bananas, dates,
grapefruit, oranges and pineapples.
Small Platform Could
Be Airport of Future
New York U.R) A steel plat
form a few hundred yards
square that can be located near
the heart of a city could well
become the airport of the future.
Steelways, official publica
tion of American Iron and Steel
Institute, said that most of the
scientific developments which
point toward this change are
centered in the military services,
but the day of their civilian ap
plication is approaching.
The publication said that the
aircraft industry, its engineers
and designers, can foresee the
day when the long trip to the
airport will become passe as
giant airliners may be landing
and taking off only a few min
utes from one's home or office.
Such planes as the Navy's
"Pogo Stick," which lands and
takes off vertically, have teen
successfully test-flown, and the
true convertiplane, which
changes from a helicopter to a
conventional aircraft at will, is
now at hand. Jet engines are be
ing designed which provide a
reverse jet blast on landing, just
as propellers on today's trans
ports reverse themselves to pro
vide braking action.
Steelways said these revolu
tionary changes also will benefit
residents of small cities and
towns which cannot afford the
millions of dollars required to
build the huge runway and ter
minal facilities needed by to
day's airliners.

Two Great Lakes
Freighters Collide
Angonac, Mich. UP. Two
giant Great Lake freighters col
lided head-on in the St. Clair
river Thursday, sinking one and
disabling the other.
Coast Guard officials could
give no explanation for the
crash which sunk the heavily
laden 504-foot ore carrier A. M.
Byers to its main deck in 17
minutes. The 406-foot cement
boat E. M. Ford was knocked
out of commission and tied up
at nearby Russell Island.
The crash happened in river
flats off Harson's Island about
30 miles northeast of Detroit.
The sunken freighter blocked
traffic on the river that links
Lake Huron on the north with
Lake St. Clair. The river is the
boundary between St. Clair
County, Mich., and the Canadian
province of Ontario.
A lookout on the 6,000 ton up
bound Ford was the only casu
alty. Mike Wenta was hospital
ized in nearby Mt. Clements,
Mich., with head, back and chest
injuries. The 30-man crew of the
Byers was transferred safely in
lifeboats to the Ford.
Kefauver Points To
Stronger Campaign
Los Angeles (U.R) Sen.
Estes Kefauver arrived today in
the final phase of his current
California tour.
The senator stepped off a
plane in the pre-dawn hours
from a quick trip to San Diego
in his campaign for California's
68 votes in the June primary.
Kefauver,' showing no signs of
fatigue from his cross-country
tour said his California cam
paign was "rolling stronger ev
ery day." He brushed aside re
porters' questions on his recent
setback in the New Jersey pri
mary. He reiterated his determin
ation that, so far as he was con
cerned, President Eisenhower's
health would not be made a po
litical issue. Asked about the
designation of "part-time Pres
ident" being used in some pol
itical circles about Mr. Eisen
hower, he replied:
"I am taking the word of Mr.
Eisenhower's doctors that the
President is in good health. As
far as I am concerned his health
will not be an issue."
Disc Jockey Winds Up
90 Hours for Record
Provo, Utah (U.R) A young
Provo radioman finished 90
hours of continuous broadcast
ing early today,, "mighty beat"
but claiming a new endurance
record for disc jockeys.
Ron Bailie, 24, staff announ
cer of station KOVO, began his
stint at 8:50 a.m. Monday in the
front window of a Provo store
that, not by coincidence, was
featuring a "marathon sales'"
appliance campaign.
Bailie didn't leave the air, ex
cept between records, until 2:56
a.m. His immediate plans were
to "sleep for a week." The old
record, that Bailie exceeded by
five hours, was held by Steve
Sorenson of KSPO in Spokane.
Local Preparation
For Disasters Urged
Chicago (U.R)-r "If every hos
pital in the nation prepares ad
equately, for local disasters, the
problem of preparing for disas
ter, of national scope is reduced
considerably."
Dr. Harold Lueth, chairman
of the American Hospital associa
tion's committee on disaster plan
ning, said this in a newly pub
lished handbook "Principles of
Disaster Planning for Hospitals."
"In disasters of any magni
tude, people instinctively turn to
hospitals for help. The disaster's
impact on the community's med
ical resources is immediate and
demanding, whether or not they
are prepared to care for mass
casualties," Dr. Lueth wrote.
"A hospital cannont do its
best job of saving lives unless
the community has established a
practical disaster plan for other
agencies; such as police, civil de
fense, fire departments ... A
hospital's disaster plan is not
complete until it has been 'in
tegrated with an over-all com
munity disaster plan."
Calcite, Mich., is the world's
leading port for shipment of
limestone.
