Q Americans delight to discover that they are not the only ones who like substantial breakfasts. Unlike most Europeans, who are satisfied with a cup of tea and a roll, Russians are likely to consume a large bowl of por ridge, a plate of fried eggs and sausages, bread and tea. There are even those who will like cheese, caviar, fish or a meat cutlet for breakfast. The Russian cuisine is the melting pot of many nationali ties, and to prepare it well re quires an artist's imagination and training. Basic Materials An eloquent advocate of this claim is Fedor Georgievich Obryagin, head chef in one of Moscow's oldest and most repu table restaurants, the Grand ho tel. With gray hair bristling from beneath his white cap and a modest figure which belies the fact of having spent almost a lifetime (jn the kitchen, Fedor Georgievich delivered this brief definition of the Russian cuisine: "My basic raw materials are butter, smetana (Russian sour cream), potatoes, kasha (a cereal), cabbage, several kinds of fish (perch, salmon, sturgeon) and meat (usually beef and mutton). There are a few Rus sian dishes which do not con tain at least one of thee Ingredi ents." He was not exaggerating in the case of smflana. This sooth ing substance, n$ quite like anything el in the world, is vital to Russian cooking as olive oil is to the Italian. It dresses salads, garnishes cheese Bcakes and pancakes, decorates borsch, and forms the basis for many a meat sauce. Judging by the number of or ders in the Grand hotel, the most popular hot dish among Russians is "Kiev cutlet" white chicken meat shaped, in the form of a leg, fillets with melted butter and fried in an evenly browned crust. A Typical Banquet According to Fedor, another favorite is so-called homemade roast beef or mutton cooked onions in a crockery jar resem bling a flower vase. Many cus tomers like solyanka which is similar to homemade roast but also includes cabbage and lots of salt. A typical banquet at .the Grand hotel would begin with an assortment of zakuski (hors d'oeir?res) black caviar, cold salmon, cfreh cucumbers, and a mixed meat, potato, cheese and mayonnaise salad. Bouillon with pirozhki (small meat filled cakes) would follbWj Or perhaps borsch or shi' fa vorite Russian soups made with potatoes and cabbage. The main course would most likely be, if not Kiev cutlet or 1 solyanka, filet, beefsteak "natu- ! ralni" (without sauce or garnish) or one of the common fish pre- pared in casserole form or cook ! ed on a spike. ! Fdr his dessert, a Russian is j apt to have ice cream, which I almost everywhere in the Soviet IPdPltpOTffllPl1! The office Christmas party is here to stay, ta rase anyone is interested. This isa't Jxifft Potpourri's ojnien, either, but the result of a Buqrver eCQduKtcd by tfee Natieaal Gsee Manatgemeat aSwciatioia. o o DtftfMiBjg t fee r&f irficieat about tha whels aaattter, NOMA atsi iS aurvfey jht after Christe test yar, and polled iNwrt & &t&wsaj4 fir o all types i all Arts ea the Country.

However, Where the parties3 are heia on company property, liquor Is "increeeingly frowned upon" and half ef then parties will be -'dry" act&nllnf to the NOMA report. Here arfr fr.ther interesting fettl flipped from the report. Tor two out of every threpartie, trie complete tab will be picked up py the employer; one ovit W Six companies expect the empkye to beer the 'aole efpne and theremainder will ask tha employee to ehere a part of the eost. Sixty-one per cent of the flrm eaid they plea to hold their office party after working houre; SO per cent ill be in the evening and 11 per cent on the week end. About one-third will be held on the last wprking day before Christmas. e . Very few cdmpenies permit children; about half of the firms limit attendance to employees; of the remainder, most companies believe it promotes good will to invite the employee's husbands, wives and sweethearts. . Only about a third of the companies having the parties will hold them on company property the majority will go to a res taurant, hotel, club or other location. And wherever the party is held, less than one in 10 companies require the employee to attend. NOMA ended the report by saying that "One thing seems sure from the survey. There is a definite trend toward more office Christmas parties and once' a company starts having office parties, the chances are 99 44100 per cent that they will con tinue to hold them." Mrs. Norma Burroughs, publicity chairman of the local NOMA chapter, brought in the report two or three weeks ago but Pot- kpourri has firmly been refusing to print a lot of Christmas ma terial in November. We're probably stubborn, if not even old fashioned and backward, but enough is enough. Maybe visiting the United States gave Queen Elizabeth some new ideas. Last week it was reported frona L6ndbn that the ,ueen and her sister, Princess Margaret, had worn the most daring dresses of their social careers at two recent formal functions, and that the queen had ignored the advice of court officials and in vited Princess Grace and Prince Rainier of Monaco to luncheon. The queen's dress; worn to a reception at a British museum, was "a full-skirted white tolle cut low in thf, front and the back and precariously held up by two tiny jeweled straps" one press report said. The same night Princess Margaret appeared at a students' ball wearing e strapless blue satin gown. The reporter commented that it was probably just as well that the sisters didn't appear at the same function since "the joint effect of ftieir ultra modern3 clothes might have been too electrifying." Saturday a British columnist, Henry Fielding, was quoted by United Press as saying that "Queen Elizabeth has Qound a re freshing new friend her owy age in Princess Grace of Monaco." The columnist declared that the two "hit it of fc very well" and "they (Princess Grace and Prince Rainier) left with promises to see each other ajiin. And the Queen -was most feappy about the meeting." o o Whe9i Mr. and Mrs. Dolph Phipps and Mr. and Mrs. MacLeod Maurice invited friends to a dinner at the Country club Friday, they purposely didn't tell anyone that the event celebrated their respective fortieth wedding anniversaries. Butomehiow, the news leaked out to a few, snd at least one couple showed up with presents. Frances and Al Littrell presented each pair of hosts With what appeared to be an outsize convention badge. Made by Mrs. L. of garnet red velvet (the fortieth anniversary is garnet) the badges were adorned with pictures of each couple and turned out to be the conversatioji pieces of the evening. O.S.
