One charcoal manufacturer predicted this year Americans will eat a record two billion meals outdoors. . One manufac turer of eooking equipment pre dicted sales of grills, spits, chefs' hats, aprons, long-handled forks and barbecue accessories of all kinds would total S100 million in 1957, compared with $90 mil lion last year and $45 million the year before. A survey by Dupont showed that 84 pec cent of all American families eat some of their meals outside during the year; 55 per cent of all families prepare an outdoor meal one to three times a month, 19 per cent four to six times a month, and five per cent more than 10 times a month. Today, reported the Diamond Match company, 36 per cent of all homes in the United States have either a portable grill or outdoor fireplace, and the num ber increases each year. This year, the company said, the na tion will buy 140 thousand tons of charcoal briquets. The result has been a boom in businesses catering to the out door chef representing produc ers in such diverse fields as foods, condiments and cook books, garden supplies and fur niture, even building and archi tectural concerns. . The barbecue boom is the re sult of the casual living trend, said Ralph Olswang, head of Kamkap Outdoor Equipment. More persons own cars and can get to picnic grounds. More per sons live in the suburbs, where patio or backyard invite meals outdoors. There is more leisure quipment gets A tour, for instance, of New York firms -selling outdoor equipment shows you can spend as much, or as little as you want. "As much" may be $100 for an "electrically - powered spit which starts with the touch of a button. This season, for the first time, 01swangs company features a "his or hers" grill, a twin one with hood and motorized spit. Other grills have cooking ther mometer built in. Among the more elaborate are j wagon grills with enclosed pots and cutting boards. But retailers "report the big- j gest sellers are the barbecues j and braziers selling for $10 to j S20. . ' I Most of the ..-equipment is bought by men, Olswang said, and most of the time they also use it. ' "The outdoor chef : thinks nothing of roasting duck or tur-" key," asid Olswang. "The steaks and hamburger chef of a few years ago now cooks like a grad uate of the cordon bleu." erica will sponsor a card party j Wednesday. May 15, at the Camp j White theater.
