WILLIAM H. ROBERTS D.M.D. ANNOUNCES THE REMOVAL OF HIS OFFICES ON THE FIRST OF FEBRUARY, 1958 , From THE MEDICAL CENTER BUILDING To PROFESSIONAL CENTER 842 EAST MAIN STREET MEDFORD, OREGON SUITE 14 TELEPHONE SPring 2-6987 Entrance and Parking on Myrtle Street MAIL TRIBUNE Insects Take Toll Of Foods Corvallis Homemakers can save both food and money by protecting food on the cup board shelves from insect pests. Insects in flour, meal, cer eals, cornstarch, crackers, breakfast foods, macaroni and spaghetti often play havoc with the family food supply, says an entomologist from Oregon State college exten sion service. Insects that feed on grain products may also be found in spices, nut meats, chocolate cocoa, dehydrated foods, dried fruits, dry soap mixes, dog biscuits and bird seed. To rid cupboards of these pests, Ro bert Every, college entomolo gist, suggests these controls. Try to locate the source of pest infestation. A good place to start is cereal boxes that are not often used. Meal moths often infest nuts or dried fruit. Clean shelves thoroughly. Spray the cupboard with 5 per cent DDT. Inspect all packages of food for insects before returning them to the shelves. Shelves should be cleaned by wiping up all spilled foods, cleaning out corners and cracks that may have food lodged in them. Insects can live on spilled food and get into food that might be placed on shelves later. DDT is the best weapon householders can use to rid cupboards of the pests, says Every. All packages of food and dishes should be removed from shelves before the shel ves are sprayed with a 5 per cent DDT household solution. Suitable household aerosol dispensers are also available at most stores. After the liquid has dried, a deposit of DDT crystals re mains that should be effective for several months. Insects that crawl around the inside of sprayed cupboards will be killed before they have a chance to lay eggs and start new infestations. Homemakers ' should wait until the spray dries before putting food and packages back on shelves, he advises. The dry DDT deposit will not harm food inside packages. Other insecticides recom mended for household uses in clude lindane, dieldrin, chlor dane and malathion. Dieldrin and Chlordane are especially effective against cockroaches and ants. Users are reminded to follow manufacturers re commendations and precau tions when using these insect icides. A crown roast of pork with sauerkraut makes an elegant company dish. Before roast ing, fill the center of the roast with a mixture of sauer kraut and a diced unpeeled apple seasoned with a little chopped onion, brown sugar and salt and pepper to taste. Roast as usual. It not only looks special, but tastes scrumptious. Tuesday, January 28, 1958 Variety Meats Recommended By Economists Use variety meats to put vim into tired appetites, add spice to meals, and trim the family meat bill shoppers were told this week by home economists with Oregon State College Extension service. Included in the list of va riety meats are liver, heart, kidney, tongue, tripe, brains and sweetbreads. . High in iron, and vitamins A and B, they encourage hear ty appetites, build strong bod ies and healthy gums. Be cause of a small demand for variety meats, they are often priced a third to a half lower than regular economy cuts. Little waste, too, shoppers are reminded, from bone or excess fat. Appearance is the guide to selection of variety meats, home economists continue. Meats should be fresh and plump, and smooth and shiny around the edges; the entire piece should be evenly col ored. Liver is deep red to red- brown; kidneys are a deep red-brown, and heart should be bright, dark red. The coldest part of the re fngerator is recommended storage for variety meats. For best flavor, they should be used within 48 hours lifter purchase. After cooking, wrap meat tightly with waxed pa- per or aluminum foil and re frigerate. Flavor and appetite appeal of all variety meats depend on proper cookery methods, cooks are reminded. Exten sion agents suggest that shop pers consult cookbooks with recipes and menu suggestions try several, and surprise the family with new taste treats. Teenagers Ignore Paris Creations St. Louis (IP) The Ameri can teenage girl knows what she wants in clothes and it's rarely the latest from Paris. A survey of students in 20 colleges from Ohio to Wash ington showed the senior miss a conformist anxious only to dress "like the others." Last year's dress and even the two-year-old empire sil houette not only are good enough for her; she prefers them. Of the 20 schools sur veyed by St. Louis -fashion creators, only one, Stephen's college at Columbia, Mo., not ed the advent of the 1957 chemise. Of nine styles submitted to the young women, just four won the nod of approval the jumper sheath, the over blouse, the princess and the Empire. The newest of the four is the two-year-old Em pire. Pointed Toes Accepted This year's trend to the shorter skirt has gone unno ticed by the college co-ed. She likes the mid-calf length and that's what she wears, fashion to the contrary. She prefers the straight skirt; the circle skirt next. For separates she chooses the hip-bone length jacket and the cardigan. At least half the girls who participated in the survey ad mitted they don't wear hats, but they buy about two a year. They wear the chapeau on that rare occasion when "the complete look" is need ed, they explained. Another two-year-old style that finally caught on this year was the pointed-toe shoe with the heel "not over three inches high, please." The typical coed said pic tures in newspapers and mag azines also influenced her fashion preferences. A moth er's or older sister's opinion counted least.

Guild of Musical Artists Reprimands Madame Cailas New York (TP) Opera star Maria Meneghini Callas held her celebrated temper and declined comment today on a mild reprimand dealt her by the American Guild of Musical Artists for failure to keep a San Francisco singing engagement. The board, of governors of the guild ruled Monday night after a hearing attended by Mme. Callas that she was not "wholly justified" in refusing on the ground of illness to fulfill her contract with the San Francisco Opera comp any last fall. The board decided not to penalize the, star. It could have censured, fined, suspend ed or expelled her. The singer, who appears next February 9 in Verdi's "La Traviata" at the New York Metropolitan Opera house, refused to answer re quests for comment on the guild decision. No Temper Involved The San Francisco case did not involve her fiery temper. Boy Scouts Talk For DAR Chapter; Delegates Named "Our Scouts" was the sub ject of the program given for ters of the American Revolu Crater Lake chapter, Daugh- tion, Saturday at the home of Mrs. A. V. Hardy. Dick Clark, who has reach ed the highest rank in scout ing, explained some of the re quirements to become an Eagle or Arrow scout, and stated that boys must work very faithfully to attain these honors. Young Clark was chosen to go to Kansas City in December where he met with a national group to plan the national convention to be held in that city next August. John Crawford described the various uniforms and the meanings of the patches and badges worn on the uniforms. John Norris described his im pressions of the various cities and buildings he visited on his trip to and from the na tional jamboree held in Val ley Forge last summer, and said the most beautiful build ing was the state capital of Utah. Fred Lorish concluded the report by speaking of the trip to and from Valley Forge and of the amusing and amazing incidences which are always part of the experience of transporting over 50,000 indi viduals. Mrs. George R. Carter will head the chapter's delegation to the state conference in March. Others elected were Mrs. O. H. Brenneman, Mrs. H. S. Chirgwin, Mrs. Ray K. Bailey, Mrs. A. V. Hardy, Mrs. W.

FINAL CLEARANCE LAST OF WINTER YOUR CHOICE U U l UJHU yy and u MEDFORD She had a contract with the opera company there to sing eight times between Septem ber 27 and November 10, but notified it she was ill and couid not fulfill the contract. However, she offered to fill part of the engagement, but never sang. Hyman Fein, national ex ecutive secretary of the guild, said "There was no question Mme. Callas broke her con tract. The question was wheth er it was justified." He said the star presented written medical evidence to Monday's meeting to show she had been too ill to perform. Fein said the board accepted the evidence at face value but also "took into account other issues." Not Wholly Justified Fein said the singer's offer to fill part of her contract was made "apparently against the medical advice of her doctor." But he said that the board "found that she was not wholly justified in not per forming the entire time." Monday's hearing was post poned from Nov. 25, 1957, because Mme. Callas had noti fied the board she had a con tract to begin rehearsals at La Scala in Milan then. A later engagement at the Rome Opera house broke up in a near-riot when the dark haired star refused to con tinue after the first act of "Norma." She said she quit because she had lost her voice due. to a cold, but opera officials said she had indulged in too much party-going the evening before, and some critics said she was miffed by the first act reactions of her audience, which included the president of Italy. t Explorer, Statesman Subject of Reviews For Wednesday Club Mrs. R. T. Nichol and Mrs. R. J. Miller gave the program for the last Wednesday Study club meeting, January 22. Mrs. Nichol reviewed the book, "Dr. Livington, I Pre sume," by Ian Anstruther. The story is about Dr. David Liv ington, the famous explorer and his adventures in the Af rican' Congo where he went to obtain details for maps and other data for the Geograph ical society. Heb ecame lost in the jungles and Dr. Henry M. Stanley, another famous African explorer, was d i s patched by the English Gov ernment to search for him. He was found living with friendly natives in the village of Ujiji, November 10, 1871. Dr. Livingston spent the later part of his life endeav oring to ascertain the source of the Nile river. Mrs. Miller gave excerpts from the book, Sir Winston Churchill, written in 1952 by Robert Lewis Taylor. Sir Winston was born of American-English parents No vember 30, 1874. The author writes of his brilliance as a statesman, journalist, soldier, one who has been active in politics over a half century. Mrs. Miller added that, even though he is in failing health and lives rather quietly at his home in London, at 83 years of age, Mr. Churchill is still noted for his alertness of mind and sharp wit, and is busy writing the third volume of his Memoirs. Program Planning Discussed by Group Shady Cove Program planning for the year was dis cussed by the Shady Cove Ex tension unit at their meeting last week. Mrs. John Loper gave a project lesson on con sumer buying and Mrs. Lewis Dusenberry spoke on reup holstering with foam rubber. Also discussed at the meet ing was the Great Decisions program that will begin Feb ruary 2. Mrs. Chester Will son, county chairman of the Associated Country Women of the World, spoke of the ac tivities of that organization. Fifteen members attended the meeting including one vis itor. 2nd FLOOR Amelia Earhart Program Subject Medford Zonta club ob served the eighteenth anni versary of the Amelia Earhart scholarship program of Zonta International at a luncheon meeting last Thursday. Mrs. Gertrude Blind and Mrs. Eve lyn Graham', club members, gave talks concerning the life of Miss Earhart and the schol arships which are given in her name. Mrs. Blind in her talk on the life of this famous avia trix said that she had a great desire to explore the unusual and it was this spirit which led her to be the first passen ger to fly across the Atlantic in 1928. In 1932 she soloed her own plane across the At lantic. In 1937, Amelia Ear hart was lost while attempt ing to circle the world. Mrs. Graham then told of the establishment in 1938 of the Amelia Earhart scholar ship for women by Zonta In ternational as a living memo rial to this woman who had pioneered in the field of aero nautics.

Twenty - four scholarships to date have been awarded; they are made possible by voluntary contri butions by members. Mrs. Graham said that this service program is truly internation al in scope even as Zonta is an international service or ganization, for the scholar ship is open to women from any country. One of the re cent recipients was from Egypt and a winner in 1957 was from Germany. The speaker said that in 1957 nine applications were from seven foreign countries including Chile, Thailand and South Af rica. The speaker said that of the award winners, six ob tained their doctor's degree and the others their master's degree. . In concluding the program of the local club, each mem ber read from a small model paper airplane which was at her place, the name, year and branch of study of a woman who had received the award. 4 HEC to Meet Eagle Point The Home Economics club of Eagle Point will meet Wednesday, Janu ary 29 at 1 p.m. for a dessert luncheon at the home of Mrs. C.
