CALO MEATS ARE COOKEI Tl NATURAL GOLDEN BROWN Everything for a balanced et I blind of fresh meat by products, fresh horsemeat, fresh meat, fresh ground bone; plus carrots, selected cereals, wheat germ and Vitamins A and D. In the last letter from the Young Marrieds, they wrote about the battle of the budget. The housewife, deciding that two adults should be able to live on" a food budget of $60 a month, tried setting, aside that sum at-the first of Novem ber. On the 25th she wrote "Would you do me a favor? Inquire among the young couples you know who have no children and find out how much they spend on food per month? I decided, after fighting a losing battle with grocery slips, to simply take a certain sum of money and buy noth ing but groceries with it. I decided that $60 would be a great plenty and boy, was I in for a shock! I now have (on the 25th) $9.75 left, and all but about $2 has been spent for food. The $2 went for stuff like Kleenex, soap and scouring powder. We have eaten great quantities of things like hamburger, tuna-noodle casserole, etc. I bake my own bread, and Kenny takes his lunch to school. We use about two dozen eggs a week, and probably two gallons of milk, not counting Carnation for coffee and-bread-making. We buy the grind-it-yourself coffee. I'm just curious to see if it costs as much Tor food here (Spokane, Wash.,) as it does in Medford. Milk is 23 cents per quart here. And the meat isn't nearly as good, and naturally is more expensive, than what I bought in the commissary in Berlin." Both young people came out of the Army with the firm conviction that it is the most wasteful and inefficient organization imaginable, and both can frighten a stay-at-home parent with their stories of what went on in Berlin. With that in mind,' we were not surprised to read: "It doesn't seem possible that we have been married for three years. We've certainly seen a lot of the world in that time - more than I ever thought we would. I think it would be interest ing to be in Berlin now, but not with the Army. The' Army is shook up when things are normal there; I hate to think what it must be like now. I should hate to see it go into Communist hands, for many reasons, it is a beautiful city, and the Americans and British have poured millions of dollars into re-building it." , The letter started Potpourri thinking about keeping a food account once more something we did for years but had abandoned since the family dwindled to two again. Our food budget wouldn't be a normal one, though, for a reporter, particularly a society reporter, eats many meals in clubs, cafes and dining rooms for which she is a guest. This, of course, cuts down on the amount of food which must be purchased for preparation' at home. This week might be an example - Monday night we ate dinner at Girls Community club, Tuesday night Potpourri and Pappy were among a group of guests invited for a dinner at Kim's restaurant, Wednesday night we dined at the Jack Moran home with "the older girls" and this noon we were scheduled to have luncheon with a Beta Upsilon chapter of Beta Sigma Phi sorority. -' . The schedule isn't always that heavy, thank heavens, or the society editor would soon have to go into outsize clothing. Faith circle of the Presbyterian church prepared Monday night's dinner, which marked the 25th anniversary of the Community club, and the menu was a good one. Someone in Faith circle knows about "Al A," the processed wheat food rather like brown rice which is used as rice or barley are used in cooking. It is delicious and a fine ac companiment for the ham. Dessert was one of the best pieces of apple pie Potpourri ever ate. . Tuesday night's menu, prepared by "Canton" (we can never remember whether his proper Chinese name is Lee Sheu, or Sheu Lee, but everyone says Canton) was complet ly different, and a gastronomic delight. The guests had been told that Canton, as usual, had a surprise dish - one which none of the guests would ever had eaten before. This turned out to be shark's fin soup - it was different, and it was good. The menu also included shrimp skewered with slivers of ham and bamboo shoots, and served with a sweet sauce; black mushrooms stuffed with chicken, one of Canton's specialties; a platter of beef slices served with garlic and what we decided were leeks, but might have been onions; another shrimp dish, this served with1 the sweet-sour sauce for which the Chinese cooks are famous, and an abalone dish, also served in a sauce. This all was prefaced with thin slices of barbecued pork which the guests dipped sesame seeds, and cubes of barbecued spare ribs, and was accompanied by various beverages, including the wonderful Chinese tea. Canton "went American" and served ice cream with a liqueor sauce for desstrt instead of the traditional fortune cookies. We learned from out host, and his wife now have a second son. Mr. Fong has been given the honor of naming his friend's children the first was named Dennis and the second Michael. And why such Irish names for Chinese children? It seems that the Chinese colony in Portland, where the families formerly lived, employed Irish attorneys whom they admired and respected. The dinner which Mrs. Moran served "the older "girls" Wednesday night included ox-tail soup which had been sent from France by Mrs. Robert Miller. We were somewhat surprised to learn that the French also use the dehydrated soup bases, which are so popular in this country, and ate the finished dish with interest and relish. The group decided that the seasoning included curry, but was unsure of what the other ingredients might have been. This meal included slices of Mrs. Moran's excellent home-made whole wheat bread, a tossed salad with French dressing and a lemon meringue pie from the kitchen of Mrs. John Ousterhout. It was very good and just "like mother used to make." The lemon custard was sharp with real lemon juice and the meringue was high, fluffy and lightly browned. If this keeps up another week or two, Potpourri will be ready for TOPS. - O.S. Cabbage-Pear Slaw New York (UPD For a dif ferent slaw, combine fresh pears and cabbage.

But the most amazing assem blage to date comes from Don Loper, Hollywood couturier. Loper has developed an all jersey wardrobe in black. The basic 10 items worked out Id at least 22 combinations in my count, and a good mathema tician probably could figure more. It is all done with mix, match, reversibles and zipp ers, and fits neatly into a sin gle hatbox. With accessories, it weighs in at just 20 pounds. The basics are a fitted coat, slim trousers, blouse with re movable white dickey, a straight skirt, a hood, a two piece jet beaded suit, one jer sey belt and one wide satin cummerbund. But the coat zips apart at the waistline, leaving a jacket which can be combined with the straight skirt; the coat skirt is full, and lined with taffeta, so that turned wrong side out it is dressy. Add the jersey blouse with dickey zipped out and you've got a cocktail costume with plenty of decolletage. The tapered jersey pants have push-up legs, so that they're hidden under the coat, if milady wants to wear her lounge clothes instead N of changing into them once aboard a plane. She can get the look of a daytime dress by zipping the white dickey back into the blouse and wearing the straight skirt with jersey belt. And the beaded top of the two-piece spit can go with the plain skirt, or beaded skirt Bridge Tourney Winners Named Detroit (UPD A Michigan automoDue salesman and a Bay City, Mich., housewife moved from third to first place Wednesday night in tense competition with 128 couples to take the national mixed pairs title of the Ameri can Contract Bridge league. Edward J. Smith Jr., Grosse Pointe, and Mrs. Carol Ross pulled steadily away from their closest contenders to total 509 points, 48 V2 ahead of the second place winners- Mrs. Harry Stein and Louis J. Coyhen, both of Detroit, who wound up the concluding round of T the four-session match with 460V2. Mrs. Stein, who earlier startled the experts by in creasing her lead in life mas ter competition, also ranked first heading into today's fin als of the 112-entry life master field. She moved 16 points ahead of second-placed. Wil liam Rosen, Chicago, who had 547. Mrs. Stein totaled 563 in life master play. Apricot whole fruit nectar makes a delightful appetizer for Sunday dinner when it's combined with a little fresh lime or lemon juice and served over cracked ice in cocktail glasses. 4 BRANDS $34.50 . $79.95 $139.95 . $99.50 $184.50 $249.50 $199.00 4& ONLY button holes with plain top. Loper put together the wardrobe originally for Jean Gammon, women's fashion di rector for Scandinavian Air lines, who travels some 25,000 miles annually and said it was always a problem to find a capsule wardrobe. Miss . Gannon, a pretty blonde, said she has only one objection to Loper's wardrobe the skirt of the coat should be less full. Loper's other cus tomers apparently have no complaints. Several movie star , clients have plunked down $1,100 for the ward robe. Surgeon Says Starving; Plan 'Modern Americans are living on a starvation diet. They are starving not for food, but for essential nutri ents," according to Dr. and Mrs. H. W. Vollmer, Califor nia health and nutrition lec turers, who will be in Med ford December 6 to 11 to pre sent a series of lectures and demonstrations on adequate nutrition and healthful prep aration of food. Classes will be held by the Vollmers on Sunday, Decem ber 7 from 2 to 4 p.m. and Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights from 7 to 9 pjn. in the Medford Pathfinder clubhouse located on the Rogue River Academy grounds near the junction of Minear and Old Stage roads. The classes are open to any one interested in the subject of nutrition and health, and Dr. and Mrs. Vollmer wish it made clear that men as well as women are welcome. "In fact," they point out, "some of our most interested stu dents are the men in the family." The series of health lectures are being sponsored for the community by the local Seventh-day Adventist churches. There will be no admission charge for the classes al though a donation will be taken to help with expenses Studied As Hobby Mrs. Vollmer, who was a school teacher before her mar riage to Dr. Vollmer, began nutrition schools as a hobby after her four children were grown, when she became in creasingly interested in talk ing with others about the ef fect of diet on health.

They are Mrs. Ellis Chartier, president; Mrs. Jack Teeters, vice-president; Mrs'. Alfred Navarrette, recordinf secretary; Mrs. Leland Rauch, corresponding secretary and Mrs; Harold Ames, treasurer. The next social event of thw club will be a Christmas dinner-dance at Mon Desir Sat; urday, December 13. Americans Lectures ly 10 months of the year tra veiling and teaching others what they have learned about the way to better living through better diet. Dr. Vollmer states that 9,000.000 school children in the United States today suf fer from malnutrition. He be lieves that there is too much emphasis placed on soft drinks, candy, and similar products today, and children are eating these things in place . of foods essential to healthful growth and develop ment. As a partial remedy he suggests a plan being tried in California schools that , has met with marked success the introduction of fruit carts and milk breaks. Interested persons who are unable to attend the full se ries of five lecturs will be welcome to join at any time during the class sessions.
