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.

Don Loper's Mix and Match
Wardrobe Solves Problems
By GAY PAULEY
UPI' Women's Editor
New York -(UPD- Mix and
match clothes long have been
standards in travel wardrobes.
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

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

down $1,100 for the ward

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

fect of diet on health.

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.
