By EUGENE BURNS Ranger-Naturalist Tips to the outdoor cook which will make you say:" "Now why didn't I think of that myself!" Just the way I did, when I ran across them. When you've been boiling something in a pot with a lid, lift the far side, first to divert the escaping steam from your face. To avoid scorching your face, remove the pot or griddle from the hot fire before stirring or turning over the contents. Why round biscuits? They mean rerolling the dough to use Washing Machine Most in Demand by Candidates on 'Queen for a Day' Show By JACK BAILEY Written for the United Press Hollywood UK The truth about the American housewife is that, in spite of automation, electronics and the atom age, y-3-sr the leftover bits. Instead, simply roll out the dough and cut in squares. To keep your razor blades from falling into infants' hands, drop them into a piggy bank. Larger birds are usually bet ter buys because there is less bone in them in proportion to the meat than in smaller birds. Like your chicken crisp and golden brown? Add a little bak ing powder to the flour in which chicken is doused. That's for crispness. For color, use a gen erous amount of paprika with the salt, peppei and flour. About those milk cartons. They are wonderful for start ing charcoal or getting the fire in the hearth going. To prevent eggs from cracking when placed in boiling water, wet them first in cold water. Or add a teaspoonful of salt to the boiling water then the whites will not run even if the shells crack. Fried egg on toast can be sim plified outdoors. Simply cut a large hole in the slice of bread with the top of a small baking powder can. Then fry the bread in butter and then drop a whole egg into the buttered space and fry it . Will Spin Like Top How can you tell if the egg has been hard-boiled simply take the egg between the tips of your finger and spin it as you would a top. An uncooked egg will turn once or twice. When boiled, it will spin as rapidly and nicely as any top. j Want to seperate whites and yolks quickly? Then break them into a small funnel over a bowl. The whites will slip through into the bowl and the yolk will re main intact in the funnel. To keep fish from sticking to the bottom of the frying pan, sprinkle a little salt over the bot tom of the pan before you put in the fish. And for scaling fish, first put the fish in scalding water and then dip it into cold water. Use a grapefruit knife with serrated edges. Don t give me away on this one. But to save tne work 01 browning flour to make country brown gravy, simply add one teaspoon of instant coffee to each cup of gravy. Speaking gravies, to get it nice and smooth with little effort put your flour and water in a small jar (say half-pint size) and shake it until the mixture is smooth. No lumps and no straining. To start a new bottle of ket chup, insert a soda straw. The air that gets into the bottom of the bottle will help the ketchup flow easily at once When you have pancakes left over, roll them up and cut them in very thin strips. Combine them with scrambled eggs for a good lunch dish. Syrup goes good with this. (Copyright, 1957, by Eugene Burns) (Released by McClure Newspaper Syndicate Bill by Congress Designed To Make Home Buying Easier By Congressional Quarterly Washington (CQ) Congress has hammered out a bill de signed to make it easier to buy a house by lowering minimum down payments and contribut ing federal money to the tight mortgage money market. Here are the ways the new legislation may help you: Down Payments You can buy a house with less cash if your bank is willing to accept me new minimum down pay ment required by the Federal Housing administration. The FHA takes the risk out of lend ing by promising the bank to pay up your mortgage if you don't. In exchange for this insur ance, the FHA makes certain demands upon the bank giving out the loan, including how much the minimum down pay ment must be. The old minimum down pay ment for an FHA-insured loan was 5 per cent of the first $9,000 of the house's appraised value and 25 per cent of the rest. The new minimum down payment is 3 per cent on the first $10,000, 15 per cent on the next $6,000 and 30 per cent on the rest. So the new minimum down pay ment on an $18,000 house would be $1,800 instead of $2,700. The highest mortgage FHA will in sure is $20,000. In some areas, builders put up FHA-approved houses selling for less than $10,000. The minimum down payment on these homes, usually in outlying areas, is now 3 per cent instead of 5 per cent of the appraised value. The maximum mortgage the FHA will insure on these homes was raised from $6,650 to $8,000. Mortgage Money The bill may increase your chance of get ting a home mortgage in today's tight money market. For one thing, your banker may have an easier time selling his FHA and GI mortgages to the government for cash. As a result, he will have more money to lend. The legislation enables the govern- men's mortgage trader, the Fed eral National Mortgage associa tion, to buy up an additional $650 million worth of FHA and GI mortgages from banks. Another mortgage aid was the extension of the Voluntary Home Mortgage Credit program for two years. The VHMCP is a string of private banks and oth er lenders that consider FHA and GI mortgage applications rejected twice elsewhere. This mortgage pool also tries to help minority groups who cannot get the same mortgage terms as others. The program works through a national committee in Washington and 15 regional committees. the thing she wants most is still a washing machine. How do I know? Because five days a week, 52 weeks a year, 800 women attend our show in Hollywood and on the back of their admission card they name what they want most if the audience elects them "Queen For A Day." Week after week, for 11 years now, the washing machine has been num ber one on their wish parade. We get all kinds of wishes; some light, some serious, like the one from the young wife who was both deaf and mute and expecting a child. She want ed an electronic warning ap paratus, one that would flash lights in every room in the house when it picked up the sound of her baby crying One Raised Worms Then there was the one from a woman who wanted us to help her get rid of some worms. She was in the worm-raising busi ness, it seemed, and when the bottom dropped out of the mar ket she thought we'd be able to help her get rid of the wrigglers. She didn't win, though, and we were spared the task. Generally, women wish for something that will improve daily living or lift the veil of tragedy that has been suddenly thrown over their homes. They want hearing aids, glasses, orth opedic shoes or special educa tions for their youngsters, nec essary things that are beyond the financial means of. many families. Many Totally Unselfish Not infrequently, women ap pear with totally unselfish wish es; they want something for someone else. .One woman who returned from missionary work in Korea wished for money to be sent to a Korean orphanage. Another for a bicycle . for her paper boy. But the washing machine is number one and anyone trying to raise three or four youngsters can understand why. Because many women still don't have any kind of washing machine and many others need later models, we give every "queen" a new automatic in the array of household gifts that all our win ners receive. Mink, diamonds, a chateau on the Riviera, a powder blue con vertible; all of them may be a girl's best friend, but to the av erage American housewife, the washing machine is the real symbol of her emancipation from drudgery and hard work.

Grand Coulee dam has a cub ic content more than four times as great as that' of the Great Pyramid of Egypt. Aline Mosby paid club acts since 1841, is re tiring for the time being from the nightclub to make her Broad way debut, in a Harold Arlen musical about the West Indies, 'Jamaica." Lena also hopes to snare a regular TV show, if NBC's "ex periment" with another colored singer, Nat Cole, in a 15-minute program is a long-run success. "The reason I'm giving up clubs as a full-time career is that I'm almost 40, and I don't want to be an older woman singer," she e x p 1 a ined over lunch in her suite at the Ambassador Hotel. Not Graceful "I don't think there's any thing too attractive about an old er woman singing about sex and romance. I'll feel more graceful when I'm older if I'm working in the theater instead of singing about how crazy some man makes me feel." "Jamaica" doesn't have a com plete cast yet, but a million dol lars worth of tickets have been sold already. Originally the musical was written for Harry Belafonte, she said, "but he had too many, commitments so they rewrote it1 for me." "I'm nervous about opening on Broadway," she a d m itted. ''After all, I've never acted be fore. When I was under contract At the fa- on MGM I just sang in pictures. New Experience "I've never done a Broadway show before because I never was offered a part I wanted Many shows don't have as fine songs as I do in my nightclub act. But I'd do anything to sing Arlen songs." Lena hopes her .Broadway de but "will open up new opportun ities for me" so after the run of the show she will move on to other fields. "I'm a little tired of clubs and I feel good about leaving them," -she said. 'I was in a rut. I be gan to know all the headwaiters and their children! "I suppose I'll return to clubs now and then as long as I have teeth. But nothing is harder than singin' all the time in clubs. I've been in a position recently to choose where I sang here and in Las Vegas, San Francisco and New York. But for many years I put up with rude bosses and un pleasant, surroundings. "One thing I'll miss about nightclubs is the closness to my audience you don't get that on Broadway," she reflected. "But I won't miss having to concen trate hard because everybody in the audience is loaded and -having a ball!"
