U.S.' Exhibit in Russia To Include Peaceful Toys 1 t sv numrv UPI Women's Editor New York -(UPD- America will send a peaceful mission of toys to Moscow this sum- 7 mer. No tanks. No miniature atomic power plants. Only one gun. But the little Russians will get the full treatment f 01 tne "Amer- pni ican way of ill J. Gay life," childhood version, with plenty of cowboys and In dians, electric trains, bikes, stuffed animals, construction sets and dolls that wet. All are part of the Ameri can National Exhibit which will open in the Russian capi tal July 25 and run for six weeks. Other industries which will participate in the fair are the automotive, farm equipment, furniture, appli ance and other hard goods manufacturers.- "We want to give the Rus sians ' an honest image of American playthings," said a researcher at George Nelson and company, the design firm which, with the U.S. govern ment, made the final selection of toys and other facets of Americana to be shown. "Farmer" For Small Fry The one gun that made it ain't for fighting wars any way. It's a replica of the "fanner," a revolver which the heroes of the old West used on varmints. About 75 manufacturers have donated 400 toys for the exhibit, which will occupy a section of two giant exhibition balls in Sokolniki Park. . The industry said the play things will be divided into these general categories: Pre school, construction, learning and developing skills, minia tures, dolls and housekeeping toys, quiet fun, the Wild West and active equipment. In the Wild West and "Good Old Days" division, there are cowboy suits, spurs, boots and saddles, Indian tepees, Daniel Boone coonskin hats and a Robert E. Lee steamer kit. "We can't neglect the Old South either," said a man at the toy manufacturers of the USA. Shirley Temple Doll For small homemakers, the toys include the Shirley Tem ple doll, a doll that needs her diapers changed ever so otfen, a Raggedy Ann, baking sets, doll houses, knitting and oth er needlework sets, miniature stoves, " dishwashers, vacuum sweepers, washer-dryer com binations and a tea set which is an authentic copy of mod ern American tableware. Construction sets will be for building houses, sky scrapers and factories. One assembly kit makes ,up into a scale model of the S.S. United States, the world's fastest passenger liner. Another pro duces the skeleton of a dino saur. . , Active equipment will in clude bicycles, tricycles, roll er skates, footballs, wagons, sleds and scooters. ., And scientific toys will not be neglected, even if there is a dearth of satellite launchers. The manufacturers listed chemistry, electric wiring, space ship sets, microscopes, telescopes and a junior planetarium. Women own more than 65 billion dollars worth of life insurance in the U.S. Refrigerant Used To Speed Cooking The same chemical that en ables your refrigerator to freeze ice cubes and keep food cool, now can help cook meat in half the usual time, with minimum loss and no basting. That unusual use of Du Pont's "Freon-12" refrigerant is attained in a simple sealed tube device now being intro duced commercially. Inserted into meats,' it makes it possi ble to cook them from the inside out. In reality, it sim ply pipes the cooking heat deep inside a roast or turkey so the meat, instead of cook; ing only from the outside in, cooks evenly and simultahe ously throughout. -From the chefs standpoint, these new cooking aids-appro-priately dubbed "Thermo Pins"-reduce the evaporation of natural juices during cook ing, eliminating the need for basting, and resulting in juici er meats.. Shrinkage during cooking is said to be, reduced from 40 to 50 per cent. The roasting pan and oven' stay cleaner because more of the meat juices stay inside the meat where they belong. Although' relatively high priced, the "Thermo Pins," according to the manufactur er, will "pay for themselves in fuel and savings" in short order and deliver a bonus in better tasting meats. Made of stainless steel and safety-tested for use in a 350 degree oven, the devices have been used widely in industrial ro tisseries for the last three years': ; ,;; .

Oregon has had a home eco nomics extension program since 1917, when seven dis trict extension agents were appointed. Throughout the years the program has trained women in all phases of home making and has. been aimed at helping , them to a better way of life.

In Oregon, as elsewhere in tne united states, the pro gram has aided families to better living through infor mation on foods and nutrition, clothing, textiles and sewing, family psychology, and many other facets of home life. .
