MU 2-8552 Society Acid Prevents Darkening of Frozen Fruits Corvallis If you're plan ning to freeze a supply of peaches before the season ends, better get acquainted with some of the products on the market that will help prevent light colored fruit from darkening. Ihis advise is from Mrs. Ruth Klippstein, Oregon State college extension nutritionist. There are all kinds of anti oxidants on the market, she says, but the most popular is vitamin C or ascorbic acid. Ascorbic acid not only acts to prevent darkening, but more important adds needed food value to the fruit, she says. For instance, if ascorbic acid is used to prevent darkening in peaches, an average serving of peaches would contribute about one half the day's share of vitamin C needed in the diet. It's easy to add vitamin C to frozen fruit, says Mrs. Klipp stein. Here's how: make a syrup of sugar and water the night before and place in the re frigerator to cool. The next day dissolve a small amount of ascor bic acid in water and add to the syrup. Use about V4 teaspoon ascorbic acid to a quart of syrup. Ascorbic acid in tablet, pow der or crystal form is available in most stores. Powder form usually is the cheapest and most cenvenient way to buy it, ac cording to Mrs. Klippstein, but she advises shoppers to compare local prices. More food presevation helps are available on request from local county extension offices, she reports. T Cotton Council Has New Term For 'Separates' By United Press The fashion industry has come up with a substitute fo? the term "separates." Now, the phrase is '"pair-offs." The Na tional Cotton council, in a round up of fall fashions for college and career girls, defines "pair offs" as separate items, such as blouses and skirts, which go to gether because they are color coordinated. Now a girl can keep in shape while traveling abroad, even with all the feasting in fine European restaurants. Slender ella International is offering figure - care certificates as bon voyage gifts ' for the "woman who has everything." "Cash" them in at any of the company's European salons. Cotton fashions for 1958 will be given a global preview in Venice, Italy, September 25. The occasion will be the annual con ference of the International Fed eration of Cotton and Allied Tex tile Industries. At least 11 na tion including the United States will be represented. This country will send 16 outfits. Buckles and bows abound on the new shoes. Some are flat, and tailored looking; others are reminiscent of Pilgrim shoes, apparently an influence of the Mayflower II. Women's Wear Daily, a trade publication, reported the case of ! the puzzled customer at a Fifth j Avenue store. She was trying ! on a wool sheath, with neckline cut in a deep "V." "Which is the I front?," asked the customer. The i clerk called the Seventh Avenue designer to find out. Answer j the "V" was the back, the high cowl was the front neckline, j The , store admitted that the ; dress had confused its sales j force the girls had been show i ing it to customers both ways.

I heartily recommend Bekins' responsible storage to anyone needing the service." iPo'tpourri Some writer for the North American Newspaper Alliance prob ably has a red face. Browsing through some back issues of the Denver Post which Pal Peg saved during our sojourn in the east, Potpourri found an interesting article entitled "Where Should Queen Sleep?" The writer went on for about two columns on the problem facing the Eisenhowers and their State Department ad visors on how to entertain Queen Elizabeth when she visits the United States in the falL Should the queen and her spouse be put in Blair House, as other notable guests, including proud King Saud of Arabia, or should she be given "top drawer" treatment and invited to stay in the White House itself. After all phases of this had been explored the reporter wrote: "What with all the assorted perplexities about the queen's ap proaching visit, one thing seems pretty certain. There will be 'no hot dog hospitality' for her Majesty such as that given his Majesty, her royal dad. Londoners are said still to raise eyebrows at any mention of the hot dog picnic given King George and his Queen at Hyde Park by the Roosevelts. And no plans are under way for similar informality at President Eisenhower's Gettysburg farm, we are told." About the time the article got into print, a large delegation of U.S. attorneys and their wives, in England for a bar convention, were entertained by Queen Elizabeth at a lawn party and the Queen served hot dogs. With plenty of mustard. This week we read that the Queen and Prince Philip will see a football game between the Universities of Maryland and North Carolina when she is here. The couple will be in the United States October 16-21, and it is said the Queen requested that a football game be included on her schedule. The royal couple will be guests of Governor Theodore R McKeldin of Maryland. Also planned are formal dinners, the first to be at the White House Thursday, October 17. and the return dinner at the British embassy two days later. The President and Mrs. Eisenhower will go to National air port to greet the Queen and prince consort. Potpourri and pappy took advantage of the clear skies Sunday and Monday nights to watch the comet visible in the northwest sky in the vicinity of the Big Dipper. The heavens are always fas cinating, but this summer, with two comets, it has been doubly exciting. r Monday night we turned the little telescope first on the comet and later we watched Saturn with its ring, could see four of Jupiter's moons, two on either side, and Venus. But the moon is always the most interesting, with its crater and mountains, the latter particularly clear on the "dark" edge. The society editor definitely should not go around spilling her tea. Not at parties. Monday afternoon we went to the trousseau tea which Mrs. Matthew Ripfl gave for her daughter, Margaret Ann, and what did we do but spill hot tea on the pretty table cloth. At the moment the small accident seemed unaccountable but later developments explained the whole thing. The beautiful cup wasn't an 'ordinary cup it had three little feet which made it a bit unsteady. And the saucer had ornamental holes around the edge which we found out a few seconds later, for the tea which poured into saucer, instead of on. the table, then ran out' the holes. The accident didn't spoil our fun one bit, though. Potpourri went right ahead and looked at the wedding presents, the pretty bride's trousseau and ate more than a polite share of the tea dainties. Trousseau teas are rare in Medford, but it is custom firmly established in Canada, where the Ripfls lived before com ing to Medford. It is always given by the bride's mother or other close relatives just shortly before the wedding and provides friends an bpportunity to see the wedding presents and trousseau. Tod Bradley Maddox, born to Astrid (Tudie) and Raoul Mad dox August 12 in Fairbanks, Alaska, can boast of a long list of grandparents. He has four grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. George Maddox and the Ross Adams, all of Medford; three great-grandparents, Arthur Gue, Mrs. Adams' father, and the George Adams, her husband's parents, and Mrs. Elizabeth Rumbaugh, all of Aliquippa, Pa. Mrs. Rumbaugh is 86. Mrs. Adams also reported with joy that baby Tod is the first son in four generations for one side of her family. O.S.

They also denied reports Monaco was broke and they knew noth ing of reports Grace was buy ing maternity dresses. The first rumor started when Princess Grace began taking a companion along whenever she visited friends. The rumors said she did so because the Prince was "suspicious and tyrannical." Established Custom For a member of royalty to be accompanied when appearing in public "is a long established cus tom among the ruling families of the world," one palace official said. A financial expert also laughed at rumors the Monaco govern ment coffers are empty, or had to be filled by shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis or even by Grace's father, Philadelphia con tractor John B. Kelly. He said that Monaco has been in excellent financial and eco nomic shape since 1950. Princess Grace's relatives last visited Monaco in March for the baptism of Princess Caroline. Grace and the Prince are now vacatioining near Gstaad, Switzerland.
