roses. There were studies of
some of the newer types of
roses, such as Perfecta, hybrid

Foundation Plans
Annual Meeting
Portland Mrs. Jane Ells
worth, founder of the Nation
al Myasthenia Gravis Foun
dation, will be guest speaker
at the second annual meeting
of the foundation's Oregon
chapter in Portland March 3.
Mrs. Evans McLean, Port
land, who spearheaded the
formation of the Oregon
chapter, said the annual meet
ing will be at the All Saints
Episcopal church, S.E. 41st
avenue and Woodstock boule
vard at 8 p.m.
Mrs. Ellsworth started the
national organization in 1952
to gather funds to finance re
search into treatment and
possible cure of the disease
after her daughter became af
flicted and she discovered
how little was known about
the malady.
Mrs. Ellsworth, former
resident of Greenwich, Conn.,
now living in Los Angeles, is
secretary of the foundation
and a member of the board.
She also started the Califor
nia chapter which now has
1,000 members and is the
largest in the country.
Myasthenia gravis is a dis
ease which blocks transmis
sion of nerve impulses to the
muscles. Sometimes fatal, al
ways crippling, the disease
strikes old and young alike.
There is no known cure.
Mrs. Ellsworth will discuss
why myasthenia gravis is
everybody's business.

for a vesper service, and the
cookie sale during Girl cout
week in March. Other busi
ness included voting on the
board constitution. A list of
activities to come under the
Senior Scout program, to be

the life saving course, hos
pital aide training, office aide
training, compass orienteer
ing. -and photography.

Versatile Cheesemakers
'Make About
By JEANNE LESEM
United Press Correspondent
New York OPl If the
moon were made of cheese,
Americans might lose interest
in it.
Seems we're just not cheese
minded. We dont know our
cheeses, and we make only
a one per cent dent in -the
world's annual production of
the product.
This word comes from
John Sipkin, whose New
York firm imports the best
selling tiny gruyere cheese
packages irt the country.
"We eat more cheese today
than ever before, 1,200,000,
000 pounds of it," said Sip-
kin. "That's nearly double
London Builds
Theater Trade
By Coach Trips
By GLENNIE CURRIE
United Press Correspondent
London (IB London's the-
aterland is fast rivaling the
country's racecourses in pop-
uarity for "coach outings" or
ganized by small-town social
clubs, factory organizations
and women's institutes.
Race meetings, fairs, cir
cuses, choral concerts and
sports events all have their
share of the "coach trade,"
with the big luxury buses
parked in dozens alongside.
Now the organizers of such
day trips are turning more
and more to the theatres, and
hundreds of parked coaches
in the narrow side streets of
the West End make the city's
traffic problems worse than
ever.
Ironically, television is
largely responsible.
The BBC frequently shows
excerpts from stage successes
in its television programs.
Block bookings for the stage
show start pouring in the next
day.
W. F. Boulter, theatre tick
et manager for Keith Prowse
Ltd., the world's biggest book
ing agency, said most of the
new coach parties are coming
from villages and small
towns, many of the members
never having seen a play be
fore. A Habit
"The parties are up to 500
strong,' 'he said. "They come
from sports clubs, social cir
cles, women's institutes and
townswomen's; guilds, and,
most of all, from factories and
industrial areas.
"Musicals and farces are
the most popular, with thrill
ers and variety shows a close
second. Something funny and
easy to take in is the general
demand."
A typical outing costs about
30 shillings ($4.20) a head, de
pending on the distance trav
elled. This covers tke bus
fare, theatre ticket and a meal
downtown. They would spend
at least that much at the race
course of the fairground.
And it seems the theatre is
habit-forming for the out-of-town
folk, because more and
more organizations book reg
ularly year after year for a
trip to the West End.
Women Bowlers

the tonnage we consumed 15
years ago. But it still accounts
for only one per cent of all
cheese produced."
There are 2,000 different
cheese being made today, so
many that no one ever has
catalogued them completely.
Versatile
"The average person can
name scarcely a handful," the
importer said. "I can rattle
off the names of only 200.
This, of course, is only
scratching the surface or
the rind of the subject."
Cheesemakers are a versa
tile lot. They produce the
2,000 kinds of cheese from
only 3 kinds of milk cow,
goat and sheep.
Yet they achieve a wide
range in taste and aroma,
from sharp and pungent to
mild and sweet as candy.
Cheese consistency also dif
fers greatly, from rock-like
cheese to cottage cheese so
soft it must be eaten with
a spoon.
"The sharpness of a cheese
depends on the aging and the
ripening. The older the cheese
the sharper the flavor," said
Sipkin.
"You can't judge the qual
ity of Swiss Cheese by the
size of the holes," said the im
porter. "The holes, or eyes,
have nothing to do with the
quality, but it's true that the
cheeses with the biggest eyes
do bring the best prices."
Some Strange Ones
Swiss, or Emmenthaler as
it's known in its native land,
is one of the most popular
cheeses in this county, but
there are many other foreign
cheeses we never see.
Among them are Chhana,
brinza, toureg, tafi and jose
phine. Josephine? . That's a
cheese?
"Certainly," said Sipkin,
"it's a soft cheese that you
find in Central Europe.
Chhana comes from Asia,
brinza from the Carpathian
mountains of Hungary, tou
reg from the Barbary States,
and tafi from Argentina.
"There's also ossetin, but
you may have to go behind
the Iron Curtain to find it.
This cheese is so popular in
its native Caucasus that it
has two alternate names, tus
chinsk and kasach. It's made
with either sheep's or cow's
milk, but Caucasian gourmets
prefer the former."

Husbands Now Better Cooks
Than Wives, Says Economist
By GAY PAULEY
United Press Women's Editor
New York (ff) One vet
eran home economist says we
women are losing one of our
house wifely"
virtues to the
men because
of modern
gadgetry.
They are de
veloping into
better cooks
than we, said
MMiss Ruth
Hathaway,
Gay Pauley who has been
in the food field for 43 years.
Cooking nowadays is all
done with timers, thermostats
and electronics," she' said.
"And the husband often is as
good a cook as the wife, or
better, becuse he is more me
chanically inclined."
Well,, the way I feel about
food preparation, this is one
virtue , the men can have.
And let 'em also develop the
virtue ; of cleaning up after
wards.'
,But Miss Hathaway said
women haven't changed much
from grandma's day. A wife
still considers it her duty to
prepare the family meals.
Letting her husband cook
gives her "a vaguely unhappy
feeling, a guilty conscience."
The home economist, head
of Continental Baking's ex
perimental kitchens at Rye,
N.Y., for 20 years, suggested
any female interested in salv
ing her conscience should re
turn to "organoleptic cook
ing" the art of judging qual
ity by senses.
Be Daring
"Add to a dish; taste as you
go," she said. "Bring.imagina-
tion back to your kitchen. Be
daring. Use herbs freely,
make exotic sauces and gra
vies. Use different garnishes
Try a jellied instead of a hot
soup. Try avocado and per
simmon salad instead of the
standard avocado and grape
fruit. These will . . . remind
your husband what a lucky
fellow he is that he found
you."
She said . "organoleptic'
cooking called for some of the
techniques grandma took for
granted.
"Putting your hand in the
oven to guess the temperature
is one of them," she said, in
an interview
"Or shaping drops of water
in a skillet to test whether
it's hot enough for the griddle
cakes. The bubbles will jump
around the pan if it is. Or,
pulling the stem of a pine
apple to . test its ripeness
Thumping a watermelon . .
a hollow sound indicates it's
ready to. eat. Pinching a peach
in a supermarket.
Poke Around
Or, plunging a clean tooth
pick into a cake to see if it is
done. If it comes out without
any dough clinging, it is.
"Our mothers and grand
mothers poked a fork into a
roast turkey or chicken to see
if it was done. Now we rely
on what the oven tempera
ture and timer say."
These, she said, were some
of the early cooking tech
niques applicable today, even
with gadgetry to do it for us.
But my using our senses, we
satisfy the creative ability,
which she said still is a must
for today's homemaker.

Dehydrofrozen
Foods Tested
Washington OPl The froz
en foods industry may be in
for another boom with the
development of a process
which seems to lick the indus
try's biggest problem lack
of selling space.
The Department of Agricul
ture is testing a new type of
frozen food product in which
part of the water is removed
as the food is frozen.
The result has been dubbed
dehydrofrozen foods. They
take up less space than con
ventional fozen foods which
means a lot to a food market
owner who already has a lot
of money tied up in display
and storage space for frozen
foods.
There's an advantage to the
consumer, too. Because they
are low in moisture, dehydro
frozen foods do not freeze in
a solid block. It is easier to
use part of a package and re
place the rest in the home
freezer.
Dehydrofrozen peas have
been tested in several restau
rants in Milwaukee, with en
couraging results.
The customers liked theni
and the restaurant operators
were pleased with .the way
the peas held their quality.
They said dehydrofrozen peas
were as easy to prepare as
canned or conventionally
frozen peas.
Most meats, fruits, and veg
etables can be handled by the
new process.

Accident-Prone
Child Studied
New York OH The accident-prone
child is an impul
sive, physically active young
ster with many more unsatis
fied emotional needs than the
accident-free child.
That's the finding of a two
year research project at New
York University's Center for
Safety Education. Mrs. Grace
Ellen Stiles conducted the
project among 74 elementary
school children. Half Ihe
youngsters had suffered four
accidents in four years, and
half had had no accidents.
The accident-prone children
needed more love and affec
tion from adults, more eco
nomic security, self-respect
and sense of belonging, she
found. They had a total of 62
unmet emotional needs, or
twice as many as accident
free youngsters.
The study also showed that
accident - repeating child r e n
tended to behave immaturely,
to be nervous an demotionally
unstable, to feel inadequate
and to worry about physical
defects. T
