Director Uses Compromise
Version of Broadway Play
Audiences for the first fall
production of the Footlighters
hava a slight surprise in store,
according to director Frank
Biichter. The play is "The
Solid Gold Cadillac," and the
only version that has appear
ed in the valley to date is the
movie, starring Judy Holliday
as the scatter-brained blonde
heroine.
However, director tfuchter
says that the play was actual
- ly written about a very pleas
ant, if scatter-brained, elderly
lady originally played on
the Broadway stage by Jose
phine Hull. The director add
ed that the Footlighters pro
duction of "The Solid Gold
Cadillac" represents "what
might be Called a compro
mise." The heroine, Mrs. Par
tridge, as portrayed by Ruth
Kilbourn, will be a very pleas
Venison Jerky
Home Economist Has Recipe
Corvallis-Treat your fam
ily to a favorite food of both
the Indians and whites in
early Oregon trail days ven
ison jerky. Oregon State col
lege home economists and fish
and game experts suggest
these two recipes for making
jt.
Simplest way to make jer
ky is in the oven. However,
the oven cooks the meat
slightly and old-timers feel it
does not impart the old-time
smoked flavor.
Traditional jerky is pre
served entirely by drying in
a smokehouse. New electric

is Popular;
make it possible to smoke
jerky and other meats at
home any season of the year,
the specialists point out.
For the oven method use 3
pounds of venison or beef,
salt to- taste, M teaspoon
liquid smoke more or less as
desired), pepper to taste.
Remove all fat from the
meat ara slice it very thin.
Sometimes local meat shops
will do this on electric slicers.
Salt Meat '
Generously salt meat, add a
dab of liquid smoke to one
side before salting. Place the
strips layer upon layer in a
large crock or bowl, and
lightly pepper eacA layer as
stacked. Allow to stand at
least six hours or overnight.;
To dry, remove oven racks
and stretch strips of meat
across racks, allowing pieces
of meat to touch but not over
lap. Be sure to allow enough
Uncovered space on racks for
good oven circulation. Place
the racks back into the oven
so that the upper rack is at
least four inches from the top
of the oven and the lower one
at least four inches from the
bottom. Set the Oven tem
perature at 150, and dry meat
for about 11 hours. Meat left
in the oven Overnight from
9 p.m. to 8 a.m., should be
dry.
True Jerky
For true venison jerkey cut
lean venison into convenient
eating pieces about 1 to 1V4
inches thick, and . four to six
inches long. More tender cuts
make better jerky, but any
cuts can be used. Loin, round
and flank are recommended.
Prepare a brine of VA
pounds salt to a gallon of
water in a granite or stone
crock. Add meat. Weight
with a plate or polyethylene
so that all pieces are under
the brine. Allow to stand at
least 12 hours.
Drain well, place on trays
in smoker. . ury ana navor
with warm, not hot,, smoke
for five to 15 days, depend
ing on size of pieces to be
dried. When completely dry,
the meat is ready to use or
store. , -
Stored in airtight contain
ers, jerky should keep indef
initely. Bedrooms Ignored
By Families When
Improvements Start
New York -ffJPD Bedrooms
get a lot of attention from
novelsts, but they're practi
cally ignored when families
go on a home-improvement
binge.
More than half, of the 80,
000 home - owning families
who entered the recent "how
is your home" contest, spon
sored by the Home Improve
ment Council, fessed up to
that fact.
Council experts say that
bedroom-ignoring stems from
the fact that the living areas
are a "front" enjoyed by the
entire family and visitors.
When they get around to
it, many Of the contest en
trants wish to carpet their
bedrooms, add furniture, clos
et equipment and electric
blankets. Many fondly wish
for air conditioning.

association lost no time in
launching its 1958-59 season,
with last night's first offering
coming only two days after
the close of the membership
drive.
And a most delightful first
offering, "A World of Danc
ing" with Carola Goya ' and
Matteo, and Raymond Sachse
as musical director and pian
ist. Unless there is a return
engagement of this pair, it
will be a long time before we
see such dancing again.
They are not just another
dance act-far from it. Artists
to their fingertips - choreo
graphic masters - and panto
mimists extraordinary, and
with all, highly original.
The opening number, "On
the Bridle Path"-in two parts,
"The Encounter" and "The
Rendezvous," set the style
and tone of the whole pro
gram. Utilizing a typical step
of Spanish dancing, the, heel
stomp, to depict the move
ments of a pair of mounts,
was truly original and fas
cinating. Matteo made very illuminat
Japanese Have
(Editor's Note: UPI Wom
en's Editor Gay Pauley, on a
voyage of discovery in the Far
East, reports today how she
found there's a little bit of
"West Virginia" in Japanese
living.) .
By GAY PAULEY
UPI Women's Editor
Tokyo-(UPD-Let them kid us
natives of West Virginia about
going shoeless. . .
Fellow . .mountaineers, we
and the Japanese have the
right idea. Such comfort, be
ing barefoot! Such dirt-free
homes and restaurants be
cause the collections on street
and sidewalk never are car
ried in!
And, such sheer joy, simply
to wiggle the tootsies and
throw away the confines of
pointed toes . and pivoting
heels!
Not once in my stay in Ja
pan have I heard a native
woman complain, "Oh, my
aching feet." It was I, in heels,
who had the problem until
the Japanese re-educated me.
I haven't been so comfortable
since childhood; not since
childhood have the feet been
so carefree.
Centuries Old Custom
The Japanese custom of
shedding footgear before even
stepping into the entrance
way is centuries old, but this
one female recommends that
all civilizations copy. I'm no
foot doctor, but I figure we
Western women would have
fewer corns, bunions, fallen
arches and wrinkles in the
forehead. ...
Actually the Japanese don't
go around the house or res
taurant with their feet in the
altogether. Nor do they wear
stockings or soft bedroom
type slippers ' at home. The
traditional footcover is called
the "tabi," a soft cotton pull
on sock with a division for the
big toe. -
; ' The tabi-usually white for
women, navy for men-reaches
just above the ankle and is
fastened at the back by hooks.
Above the tabi. the legs are
bare-which is warm enough
with the long kimono, but
might get a little airy with
Western length skirts in win
ter. The Japanese put on heav
ier tabi come cool Weather.
Not only is the tabi a lux
ury for the feet, it's easier on
the floor. The typical Japa
nese home has floors covered
with "tatami," a soft-surfaced
but thick straw mat. . Spike
heels would make shreds of
tatami in a few hours. '
The Western guest in a Jap
anese house drops shoes but
doesn't necessarily don tabi.
One thing was pointed out to
me early-it's a faux pas to set
New Sauce .
A spaghetti sauce mix

may be used on any Italian
dish requring a tomato base

such as macaroni loaf, meat
loaf and Swiss steak.

Whole pimientos go well

cado seasoned with salt,' pep

meat salad. "
ing remarks regarding the
dances of various countries
which they performed, and
we are sure the audience ap
preciated them. The-, dances
then became ever , so much
more interesting.
An outstanding feature was
the castanet playing of Goya
-superb virtuosity, and .Mat
teo was not far. behind...
Although it seemed as if
Matteo was more versatile,
he doing Spanish, Italian, In
dian . and Scottish dances,
Goya was equally so in Span
ish, Polynesian, Gypsy and
Javanese. In all, r. the two
dancers flowed . across the
stage effortlessly,' in perfect
accord and timing and with
a technique that belied tech
nique. : In this very well balanced
program, $he two comedy
numbers - "When the Schot
tische was the Rage of Eu
rope" and the Japanese
"dope" and his fat lady, were
most refreshing.
Mr. Sachse performed no
tably on a miniature ' piano,
with insufficient keyboard.
It all ended too soon-we
Would have enjoyed another
hour of the same.
Right Idea
shoe-clad foot on a Japanese
floor. Incidentally shoe horns
are standard equipment at all
front entrances.
The tabi fits easily into the
footwear the Japanese put on
for outdoor wear. This is call
ed "geta," a clog-like shoe
made of a piece of wood, with
a couple of cross supports un
derneath. A thong passes
through a hole in the forward
part of the clog, and to this is
attached a couple of orna
mental cords whose ends are
fastened across the arch, to
each side of the wood.
