YD. flft Jx v -9? J Tuesday. October 29, 1957 Teacher Writes Book On Venison By VIVIAN SANDE United Press Correspondent. New York (IPi Audrey Al ley Gorton is getting used to receiving mail addressed to Mr. Audrey Alley Gorton because of a cookbook she has written. "The Venison Book, publish ed in September by The Stephen Greene Press, Brattleboro, Vt., begins in the forest with chap ters on how to shoot a deer and how to dress it in the woods. It ends with what Mrs. Gorton at first thought would be the be ginning and end of it, recipes for cooking deer meat and foods to serve with it. Since the book is based, as she says in the text, "on the re sults of personal experience," many of her readers assume that Audrey Gorton is a hunter, a gourmet and a man. During a visit to New York, Mrs. Gorton who is an attractive and very feminine-looking teach er of European literature and modern languages at Marlboro college in Vermont, said her in terest in venison grew out of neither an interest in hunting nor gourmet cooking. Purse, Tummy Empty "It began in 1948 with an empty freezer, an empty tummy and an empty purse," she said. "I don't hunt for sport. Only the thought of that succulent meat makes it possible for me to shoot a deer." She also favors the economi cal advantages of shooting your own deer and eating it. "Nowadays when you can store meat in a home freezer or in rented locker space there is no reason why the whole deer you bag should not end up on your table. You can have from 50 to 100 pounds of good meat for as little as $2.50 for a hunt ing license, and 10 cents for a shell," she said. - Mrs. Gorton, a former editor for the BBC and the Manchester Guardian, provides recipes for steaks and chops, roasts, curry, mincemeat, tongue, liver, stew, stroganoff or sauerbraten of venison, among others. Venison Best Rare "You can treat venison like beef, and a rare venison steak is best," she insists. Mrs. Gorton says she began to collect recipes for her book because she could find so few in the cookbooks she researched, and because in the course of the years she found herself disagree ing with some of the age-old tra ditions of venison cookery. Freezing, she believes, elimi nates the necessity for hanging the meat. Removing the skin immediately and the fat before cooking compensating with oth er fats during cooking removes the gamey flavor some people object to and ..eliminates ..the necessity for high seasoning ac cording to Mrs. Gorton. At her college, Mrs. Gorton constantly was asked by young hunters how to bag a deer and how to prepare it. She decided to incorporate that information into the book, and did, with the help of her friend, Frederick J. Turner, hunter and professor of forestry at Marlboro college. As Mrs. Gorton put it, the unique form of her book "grew backwards like a detective story." 4 Luncheon The annual fall festival lunch eon bazaar and card party spon sored by the Olive Rebekah lodge will be held Thursday, Oc tober 31, at 12 noon at the lodge.

"We've heard a multitude of assertions that imply our wom enkind can be hood-winked, bamboozled and otherwise flim flammed by pretty packages," said Jerome N. Michell, vice president of the Walter Frank organization. "Well, I just want to say this isn't necessarily so," Michell said. "Anyone who thinks a woman can be tricked into buy ing something she absolutely doesn't want just doesn't know much about women." . Michell said his interest was aroused by recent publication of Speaker Gleason Crowell, representa tive from McClaren school for boys at Woodburn, Ore., will speak at Ruch Parent Teacher association Friday, November, at 8 p.m., according to Larry Tweedy, program chairman.

No Magic "This is true at times," Michell said in an interview. "But let's not get into the world of black magic. Some of these reports say women subconsciously choose a product because they're drawn to it by some strange psycholog ical appeal that they themselves don't understand." Michell is in charge of design and development for his com pany and he indicated that most members of his craft believe far more basic scientific criteria must be the basis for package de sign. "Some imply that package en gineering is. work for mystics, that packages are developed in something akin to seances rather than by study of basic merchan dising and marketing factors," Michell said. "Even a woman's produce need not be in a pretty package if market testing indicates other wise," he said.

'You can have a comparative ugly duckling package, from the standpoint of color and design, but if its use can be clearly seen and the price is right, chances are good that it will go into the lady's shopping cart."
