orange pieces. Cover; simmer

Chinese Cabbage
For an especially distingui
shed vegetable dish, use a
head of Chinese cabbage for
this recipe, though it is good
when a small regular cab
bage head is .coarsely shred
ded and use. Wash Chinese
cabbage head and cut cross
wise into three-fourth inch
slices. Saute six strips of

whole cauliflower 20 to 30
minutes in one inch boiling
salted water in covered pan.
Drain, place in heated dish
and pour a golden cheese
suace over it. Sprinkle with
chopped parsley or pimiento
to pretty it up.
Creole Sauce for
Plentiful Whiting
Whiting is a highly thought
of white fish that is available
at reasonable cost. It comes
whole, drawn, dressed and as
fillets. Popular when cooked
and flaked, it is highly esteem
ed in creamed dishes and in
salads. We like to bake it in
Creole sauce just like we fix
halibut.

Butter or margarine
1 tablespoon flour
IV2 cups tomatoes
'4 cup chili sauce

minutes. Bake fish in preheat
ed slow oven, 300 degrees, for
15 minutes. Pour sauce over
fish and continue baking for
15 minutes longer or until
done.
Orange Beets
Enjoy beets more often. For
this very good recipe you can
use two bunches of baby beets
or a No. 2 can of baby beets,
drained.
Wash two bunches small
beets, trim off roots and all
but one inch of stems Add one
cup boiling salted water and
one-half teaspoon monosodium
glutamate. Cover, cook until

cup butter; add two table
spoons grated orange rind,
one-fourth cup orange juice,
one teaspoon salt. Pour over
beets and heat. Garnish with
unpeeled orange slices cut in
small sections.
Glazed Carrots
Plentiful golden carrots
add color, flavor, texture and
nutrition to any meal. Scrape
two bunches of small carrots;
cut in quarters lengthwise. In
heavy saucepan, combine one
tablespoon lemon juice, one
third cup sugar; one-half cup
water, one teaspoon salt, one
half teaspoon monosodium
glutamate and two table
spoons butter; bring to sim
mer. Add carrots; cover and
cook over low heat turning
carrots often until tender and
glazed. Six servings.
Aid Menus and Budgets
Western consumers are for
tunate in finding great variety
of western, grown foods at
reasonable cost. Rushed by
fast freight and trucks, they
arrive in our markets in prime
condition adding to economy
because there is so little waste
due to spoilage.
Apple Abundance. We re
joice in an abundance of
apples. Crops far bigger than
last year's reflect consider
ably lower prices. Delicious
varieties lead the apple par
ade. Both red and golden
Delicious apples are tops for
fresh eating and for salads.
Rome Beauty is the baking
apple supreme. Winesaps are
good eating, good keepers,
especially fine in pies and
apple sauce. Yellow New
towns are an all-purpose fav
orite. Pippins are best for pies
and sauce. Keep apples chill
ing in the refrigerator for
enjoyment around the clock.
Pear Plenty. Now is the
season of the Anjou, biggest
of the winter pear crops which
peaks now, stays around
until mid-March. Juicy, fine
grained and with rich spicy
flavor, the Anjou is a favorite
for eating out-of-hand as well
as for cooking. Also available
are Bosc, Cornice and Winter
Nelis; all grown right here
on our western slopes.
Citrus and Other Fruits.
Plenty of good quality grape
fruit, oranges and lemons to
provide vital vitamin C so
important in January diets.
Enjoy avocados now. Bananas
are a good buy.
Poultry and Eggs. Broilers
and fryers con tinue to
U.S.D.A's plentiful foods list.
Turkeys plentiful now but
price rise is inevitable. Stock
up if home freezer space per
mits. Eggs are down a few
cents. Send the family to work
Seagoing Station Wagon Highlights
National Motor Boat Show at N. Y.
By DOC QUIGG
United Press Correspondent
New York IP It had to
happen the latest dreamboat
on the horizon is a true "sea
going station wagon," with a
powered convertible top and
power seats that turn into
bunks.
It's not on the market. It
was just whipped up, at a custom-built
cost of 518,500, "to
The Hollywood Scene
Hollywood (IP) Sarah
Churchill was characterized
by friends today as a lonely,
timid woman
who is as out
of place in
British society
circles as she
is in the Hol
lywood whirl.
"The name
Phiirrhill is a
?M big cross to
EJsa&iSi bear, and she
ernun Scott Tc n n w it "
says a fellow worker. "She
never knows if people are in
terested in her or in her
name."
Another associate explains
it this way: "Sarah is an intro
vert who has wrapped herself
in an acting career to over
coma the shadow of the tre
mendous personality of her
father."
The 44-year-old daughter of
the great English statesman
avoids talking about her fath
er, especially to the press.
When she gives interviews,
which is infrequently, she us
ually opens with the flat state
ment, "I'll talk about any-
and to school with an extra
egg under belts.
Seasonal Vegetables. Plenty
of menu variety in cabbage,
carrots, cauliflower, lettuce,
celery, dry onions, potatoes,
sweets and yams. Try turnips,
.rutabagas, parsnips and Win
ter squash for a change. Spin
ach and turnip greens provide
that needed green vcegetable.
Meat Market Offerings.
Why not enjoy corned beef
with cabbage? Chuck b e cf
roast with root vegetables?
Beef liver with bacon and on
ions? A pork roast with yams
and fried apple rings? Frank
furters with sauerkraut and
corn bread? A meat loaf with
tomato sauce or a can of
mushroom soup poured over
during last 15 minutes of
cooking? Any favored fish fil
lets with a good Tartar sauce?
Other Plentifuls. Dried peas
and beans, packaged prunes,
dates, canned fruits and vegetables.
thing except my father."
Was Distressed
Of her rhubarb with sher
iff's deputies this week, the
red-haired green-eyed actress
says, "I was greatly distressed
but I'm sure I said nothing
against the United States."
A close friend believes Sar
ah's apparent rancor toward
this country is based upon her
treatment here.
"When Sarah's in Europe
she's treated like royalty. She
has a chauffeur and people
pay her tremendous respect.
In the United States she is
just another actress. She dres
ses like an ordinary house
wife, and her austere British
upbringing keeps her from
mixing with Hollywood char
acters." One co-worker said Miss
Churchill's difficulties in mov
ieland stemmed from her
drinking.
Moods Vary
"Actually, she is just an
occasional drinker. She only
drinks in spurts," he said.
"Her moods fluctuate. At one
moment she is extremely gay,
sffable and charming, and
then a few minutes later she
becomes quiet and pensive."
Miss Churchill spends her
free time on lonely stretch of
beach drawing and painting
in water colors. She shuns
the British colony in the mov
ie capital.
An extremely nervous per
son, Miss Churchill's large
eyes reflect an unsureness.
She frequently touches her
long red tresses with her right
hand, pushing errant strands
away from her face.
Twice now the actress has
made headlines first in 1953
wher she refused to observe
a liquor curfew . in a ham
burger joint, and again this
week when she was arrested
for common drunkenness.
On both occasions she be
rated the United States.
The general feeling in Hol
lywood is sympathetic, and
as one spokesman said, "She's
a real trouper and these
things happen to a lot of peo
ple in this crazy, mixed-up
town."
inspire some free thinking for
the future on the part of the
boat builders." Nevertheless,
it's a top feature of the 48th
annual National Motor Boat
Show, which opens tonight at
the New York Coliseum.
For all those who like to
move upon the face of the
deep in recreation craft, the
show this year has a record
fleet of 455 boats of all sizes,
shapes and dispositions. This
includes such items as a $60,
000 deep-sea fishing craft, the
first completely portable re
frigerator, and the first diesel
outboard motor.
Millions Participate
The industry asserts that 35
million American men, wom
en and children participated
in boating last year in a rec
reational flotilla totaling 7,
071,000 craft.
They are estimated to have
spent overall, on all phases
of their sport including insur
ance and club memberships,
nearly $2 billion during the
year. Quite a sport, eh?
Your correspondent was
escorted over the station
wagon by Howard F. Larson,
sales director for Evinrude,
which makes motors, net
boats. Larson commissioned
the building of the craft, for
demonstration use.
"We just thought we'd adapt
some of the reasons why peo
ple are buying auto station
wagons," he said. "Right now,
a lot of families drive to the
water in station wagon com
fort and then have to sit on
hard board seats on their
boats."
Describes First Convertible
The water going station
wagon has a cabin top with
sliding plate glass windows
that telescopes into itself to
leave the passengers with only
the sky above them "The
first really convertible boat,"
Larson said. An electric motor
does it.
A flick of a button also
raises or lowers each of the
four spring-and-foam-rubber
seats, which can fold into two
bunks that are separated by a
curtain. A large mirror and
drawers front the forward
bunk.
The 21-foot craft, which is
either a runabout or a day
cruiser depending on whether
the cabin is retracted, features
stowed-away eating tables, a
stowed two-burner stove, and
airplane type thermos bottles
in dry-ice refrigeration.
