2 MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Oregon, Wednesday, April 8, 1959 Cook Book Published As Fund-Raising Project A group of Medford women law one phase of a long-term project realized recently when the first copies of a new cook book "Rogue Chef" came from the print shop. The project, the work of five women who wished to raise money for St. Mary's school, was started more thn two years ago. The original idea was to publish a cook book which would feature recipes of all types to use pears grown in the Rogue valley. Gradually the jlan expanded to include other types of cookery. The women not only solicited fa vorite recipes from friends and neighbors, but found themselves creating new ones. In their own kitchens they cooked and tested and eventu ally turned out some original recipes for the new book. Husbands and children not only served as tasters and crit ics, but' added their ideas to the recipes. Eventually, the five women officially organized as the Rogue Chef association and elected officers.Mrs. Richard Randolph is president, - and others working with her are Mrs. Edward Ford, vice-president; Mrs. John O'Hara, sec ond vice-president; Mrs. By ron Dibble , secretary; Mrs. George Davy, treasurer. The new book has more than 400 recipes and these are divided into 10 different sec tions. , Since the women wished the publication to have an air of informality, it is cleverly illustrated in consid erable detail, the illustrations being the work of Mrs. O'Hara. Sections are marked with dividers of' different bright colors. First of the 10 sections is de voted to salads, dressings and vegetables. Others are meat, poultry and related casseroles; can opener specials; lenten dishes using fish, eggs and dairy products; dessert, both family style and "frankly fancy" cakes, pies, crusts and meringues; frostings and sauces; cookies and candies; a section entitled "Pears and More Pears" and the last one is entitled "Remember." "We wanted this new cook book to reflect modern day ideas and needs" said Mrs. Randolph, and the recipe titles certainly reflect this thinking. One recipe, contrib uted by Mrs. James Henry, is for "Gooeyburgers." This dish, said to be enormously popular with youngsters, is a combi nation of beef, chili sauce and pickle relish served over buns. Rather like a hamburger, only "gooeyer." The Space Age is not ne glected. Jeff Randolph and Mike Ford contributed a re cipe for a "Sputnik Special" which they originated.

BABIES LOVE And busy mothers love Infanseot the perfect shower gift BABY CORNER 6th & Central, downstairs at Medford Pharmacy Ph. SP 2-6253 Infants and Children's Wear milk shake flavored with pears. The boys said they liked their own creation, but decided chocolate is really better. Another contemporary touch is the "Purple People Pie," contributed by Ruth Muller. It is a cake made with grape juice. Another title to catch the eye is "Glooheys," a super-duper waffle made with orange rind and apricot marmalade. Pear Cookery It is in the section on pear cookery that the women be lieve they outshone them selves. This section contains recipes for such delicacies as "Pearcheesi Hors d'Oeuvres", "Rogue Glow Salad" and "Harvest Moon Salad". . Robert Beadnell contribut ed a recipe for "Fraternity Pear Salad." The authors of the book ex perimented with new recipes for pear candy, and Mrs. Davy contributed one of these. Mrs. Randolf is the originator of a recipe for "Cornice Coffee Cake" and Mrs. Dibble's re cipe for "Pear Pecan Pie" is in the new book. Mrs. Nina Bostwick's con tribtuion of "Rogue Valley Pear Pie" is a recipe with a history. This recipe goes back to depression days, when women of the valley created new recipes in an effort to en courage the sale and use of Rogue Valley pears. Because they believed that many cooks do not realize what glamorous desserts may be concocted from pears, the cook book authors have in cluded recipes with such in triguing titles as "Poire Creme" by Mrs. Davy, "Poire Flambeau" and "Pera Esoti ca" by Mrs. Ford and Mrs. Randolph. For this section Mrs. Julie Tummers of Mon Desir inn contributed one of her origi nal recipes, "Pears au Julie" made with port wine and rum. Mrs. Tummers' inn is recog nized nationally for its fine food and interesting fruit des serts. . Remember Section Because the cook book is being published in the year of Oregon's Centennial, the women added the section "Remember" in honor of "homemakers of yesterday." In this section are such recipes as Mrs. Edward's Kelly's "Burnt Leather Cake" and one for . "Old Jacksonville White Cake". One recipe in this section will surely prove as popular with the men today as it must have been 100 years ago. Con tributed by Mrs. H. Bertram, it is for "Elderberry Cough Syrup" and one of the ingre dients is a pint of brandy. "Rogue Chef" is on sale at Swem's Book store, the Gro ceteria, the Jacksonville Trad ing Post and Foster's Phar macy. Money raised by the sale of the book will go to the educa tion fund of St. Mary's school. O. S. .

Two-Piece Suit Back In Fashion By FRANK EIDGE United Press International Miami Beach, Fla. (UPD Come summer, the two-piece bathing suit will be back in fashion. It's a compromise between the daring bandana bikinis prohibited on most public beaches-and the conservative two-piecer of mamma's hey day. The news came from a show of a designer's (Cole of California) 60 new models, ranging from $12 to $200. "A whole new generation never has seen a two-piece bathing suit," said Anne Cole, vice president of the swim wear firm. "Because today's diets stress slim figures, these young things have narrow waists that make two-piece suits attractive." A close-up view of a zebra striped model, filled out by a petite brunette, gets Miss Cole's idea across with whis tles. For the curvy youths are vividly-colored beach wraps of sheer georgette, as glamor ous as a negligee in the moon light. New beach designs also of fer a wide selection of one piece suits for women to whom the two-piecers are only a memory-or should be. Included are clinging knitted leotards with dap sleeves and suits with wrap-around skirts. Molds Figure The suits contain all the gimmicks developed since fig leaves went out of style to pinch in a bulge here, restore a curve there, and otherwise cloud the vision of a critical male. . Cottons are making a come back this year. The natual fiber holds colors of new suits, ranging from soft pas tels of blues and lavenders to vivid hues, all in the same garment. One bright, yellow - gold number is woven from the new synthetic, Myler, used to make a ballon-satellite which the United States hopes to launch in orbit. The material is impervious to almost every thing and is more eye-catching around the shapely blonde than as a balloon. It will make a J35 dent in a charge account. The makers describe the line as "light and bright." There is a nylon helanca wisp that weights orgv four ounces. For those interested in that $200 number it is crusted with sequins and pearls. - "Saying of Things" To Be Program Topic For Beta Sigma Phi "The Saying of Things" will be the general program toDic for a meeting of Xi Mu chap ter, Beta Sigma Phi, to be held Wednesday night at 8:00 at the home of Mrs. C.
