I iftritionist Wo Brsacl, Potatoes By GAEL GREENE United Press Correspondent Ann Arbor, Mich. (IP) Fat folks out to stop cowering at the sight of bread and potatoes. That's the contention of Ade lia M. Beeuwkcs, associate pro fessor of public health nutrition at the University of Michigan. Miss Beeuwkes would like to restore those two "bugaboos" to reducing diets. She admitted her bread-potato theory may sound like heresy to the calorie-courr who has been scorning both for years. But she believes "too many sugar loaded foods are being gobbled up behind the excuse, 'Well, I never eat bread or pota toes.' " "Better ' to forego that extra slab cherry pie or the soft drink you can't get through the day without," she advised Many Food Values "Sugar contains lone-wolf cal ories," Miss Beeuwkes ex plained. "They just sit ther and do nothing but add founds." Potatoes, on the other hand, have a great many food values and "aren't cspeci.Tily fattening O when eaten plain," she added. uld Restore to Diets Miss Beuwkes, a trim blonde, said she eats potatoes and bread every day but tries not to think of each meal in terms of vita mins. "A homemaker shouldn't serve food as if it came straight off the pharmacy shelf," she said. "Don't say, 'Now darling, eat this, it contains oodles of ri boflavin,' or 'pass me a heaping plate of thiamin.' " The university nutritionist be lieves it isn't enough to teach a child to use a fork and spoon. Somewhere in his education, a child should learn what to eat. "I advise nutritionists to go easy on the hot dog, however," she added. Hot Dog's Friend In fact, Miss Beeuwkes con siders herself "a true friend of the hot dog." "11 you try to take away their hot dogs you get a negative re sponse," she explained. "I sug gest a wholesome enriched toll with that hot dog, a glass of milk, some salad and fruit for dessert." Miss Beeuwkes believes peo Dle worrv too mnph ahrmt fond. .."There's no need to bring an ' adding machine to the dinner table to count the calories," she said. "What's really needed is exercise. ,- ' "Housewives' waistlines are more in danger than ever before because labor-saving homemak ing gadgets have deprived them of all the exercise they used to have," she said. She also suggested husbands and working women park their cars or alight from buses and subways a mile from their office and walk the rest of the way. New Method Tested For Cleaning Carpets Washington (IT) Uncle Sam is helping to solve the problem of cleaning wall-to-wall cotton carpeting. , The Department of Agricul ture announced development of a method using a special deter gent and machine which are not yet in commercial production but are being tested by commer cial firms. It added that if the process does go into commercial use, the popularity of wall to wall cotton carpeting should in crease. The department said the new method, developed by contract research sponsored by USDA, is based on a minimum of wetting and fast drying of the carpet. New Cookbook To Aid Hostess New York TO Today's host ess too often is the "vanishing American." She says hello to guests and then disappears into the kitchen. But a. new cookbook, by Mary Merrill and Mildred Falk Loew, should help return the absentee hostess back to the liv ing room. "The Weekend Cook book" (Coward McCann, Inc.) is a year-round guide to enter taining at dinners, brunches, lunches and -cocktail parties. The book is divided into four sections-Lone for each season. Each section contains a week end dinner chart with four din ners. The foods chosen' have been planned for seasonal marketing to help the budget. Cooking and storage., space also have been considered for the hostess who wants to prepare ahead for the whole weekend. And, most reci pes can be prepared ahead of time. The book teljs how to do this on a time schedule, and gives step-by-step instructions. The authors say they , know the book works they've tried it. Both women . are so busy that the book developed from necessity. Mary Merrill is a leading costume designer for tel evision, and for Broadway and summer stock theaters. Mrs. Loew is the mother of two children and has been man aging" editor of Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine and associate editor of American Mercury. Spontaneous Play May Be Transformed Into Dramatic Play Lubbock, Tex (IP) The spon taneous play of children can be transformed into dramatic play if. simplicity is kept uppermost, Prof. Arne Randall of Texas Tech says. Randall, head of applied arts department at Tech, said that teachers must realize that it is not essential to have children make professional productions and settings with weeks of prep aration. He pointed out that children of all ages love . to "make be lieve.". . . T, - : ' ;-.,4 "A stick can become a horse or a spear or a warrior. A box with a hole for a child's head will transform a little boy into a knight with a- suit of armor. A little girl is a princess when she drapes a' discarded curtain fa,"- t" - . I -. i A refreshing outfit in or out of class is the bright plaid ging ham suspender skirt with a white man-tailored broadcloth shirt. A double-duty outfit by Lanz. around her shoulders." He explained that under a teacher's direction, spontaneous play can be transformed into dramatic play, with children writing the script, composing the music, assigning the parts, making the costumes and creat ing the stage setting and scenery. Randall thinks the techniques are of value to many besides Sunday, August 18, 1357 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE NINE Homemakers Are Taste and Test Panel for School By MARY LU McDONALD United Press Correspondent Pullman, Wash. npi Twelve homemakers have returned to college, and their families are discovering the rewards are well worth the effort. The homemakers form a unique "taste and test" panel at Washington State College. For the next few months, they will test packaged poultry, preserved peaches, blueberries, v a r ious bread recipes and even fried chicken. Some of the products are brought home so the women can note the reactions of "fam ily tasters." Members work on different types of panels and products and spend about ah hour and a half twice a week in the college home economics kitchens. Homemakers' Standards Why use homemakers with so many students available? As Mrs. Margaret Hard, chairman of the college home economics ; department, puts it: "If we are to improve the quality,' we should have the I homemakers' standards in mind. ! After all, they are the final j test." Panels presently are involved in grading characteristics of chicken fryers and the effects of antibiotic treatments upon the quality of fowl. "Taste and test panels are con sidered a fairly precise and ac curate measuring tool in evaluat ing food quality, and every ef fort is expended to make the tests as objective as possible," Mrs. Hard said. She added that there is a point Plastic starch can be used as a belt stiffening. Just dip the fabric in a pure solution of the starch. , where a person becomes subject to "taste fatigue" and loses somt sensitivity to taste. public school teachers. Such ideas, may be applied by leaders of children's groups, Sunday school teachers, nurses, and of course, mothers on cold or rainy days. v BACK-TO-SCHOOL LAY-AWAY PLAN ON PACIFIC TRAIL i Small Down Poymtii will held any Posific Trail Jaeke sntil school start Chooit from Surcoitt . . .
