Broilers
Popular
With Cooks
Corvallia - Whatever hap
pened to that old eating fa
vorite, the spring fryer? Re
member grandmother wring
ing its neck and frying it as
a special treat for a July pic
nic.
Tht spring-fryer type of
chicken is still around, but
nowadays it's just as apt to be
a summer, fall, or winter fry
er. And more often than not,
it's sold under the name of
broiler or broiler-fryer.
Today's homemaker doesn't
have to wring its neck, clean,
dress or draw it, either. She
can buy it cut up by the piece,
or by the bird, cleaned and
ready for the pan.
Tht broiler industry has
made Its product so easy for
the homemaker the only con
venience left would be to
cook it for her, remarked
Charles M. Fischer, extension
poultry marketing specialist
at Oregon State college. And
some pre-cooked frozen broil
ers are already appearing on
the market. It's now possible
to buy a cooked chicken hot
off the electric roto-broil as
well as a complete cooked
chicken dinner in many re
tail stores, Fischer points out.
Broiler-fryers are sold so
young (8 to 10 weeks old) and
tender that tfcey can be
cooked in about 45 minutes.
This short time from the
package to the table is so
popular with homemakers
that the volume of sales has
increased tremendously since
a few years back when the
homemakers could buy only
whole, eviscerated birds, Fis
cher said.
: The broiler-fryer industry
began in Oregon in the mid
1930's. Before that, spring
fryers were just unwanted
extras from the farmer's egg
laying flock.' Now, the breed
ing and growing of broiler
fryers is completely separat
ed from the egg business. '
Last year, around 8 mil
lion broiler-fryers were
raised in Oregon. About twice
that many were eaten in the
state.
Frying was once thought to
be the only way to cook this
type bird. Now broiling
(whole or by the piece) and
barbecuing are equally popu
lar. Short-order restaurants
are beginning to feature
chicken deep-fat fried under
pressure in a matter of min
utes. It's quite a change from
grandmother's day.

believes a little "girl talk"

not refine things even further
and try woman to woman?"
In effect, this will be her
job for six weeks at the

ing in Moscow July 25. But
already she has run into the
first Soviet "nyet." .
The Huntington, W. Va.
woman is the "typical home
maker" who will help to dem
onstrate to Soviet women
home-sewing, U. S. style. Mc
Call's Patterns, which is foot
ing the bill for her trip, se
lected her as representative
of the 40 million American
women who do some or all
of their own family's clothes-making.
Originally, Mrs. Titus and
four professionals - two from
McCall's and two from Singer
-planned to fit clothes to the
Russian women who visited
the exhibit.
Russian Refusal
The pattern company said
that the Russians refused to
let its women participate in
such a demonstration. A letter
last week from the U. S. State
Department telling of the re
fusal did not explain the rea
sons. But at least, Russian wom
en will be able to see an
American sewing machine
perform, watch as Mrs. Titus
cuts and fits clothes to any
American women the com
pany can locate in Moscow,
leaf through7 catalogs showing
the latest styles available to
the home seamstress, inspect
some of Mrs. Titus' handiwork
on garment racks, and talk to
the demonstrators.
Mrs. Titus is the wife of a
dentist and has two children,
a girl, five, and a boy, two.
She makes most of her own
clothes and those of her
daughter and figured she was
selected for the Moscow trip
for a couple of reasons.
"They wanted someone
whose husband's income was
average . . . ours is that all
right. And McCall's knew
about me from the Congress
of Better Living. I was a dele
gate for two years."
The annual congress in
Washington gathers a batch of
housewives . who air their
gripes and suggestions in the
home-building and furnishings
fields.
Reading Up On Russian
To prepare for her first trip
abroad "I've never been west
of Ohio or east of New York
before," Mrs. Titus has been
reading up on Russian history
and customs, cooking borscht
for the family, and listening
to Russian language records.
"So guess who's the best
linguist in the house?" she
said. "My. daughter, Ansley
. . . she's a born parrot."
The housewife will travel
with eight fall costumes the
Pattern company made for
her. She also will travel with
several cartons of chewing
gum.
"I read that the Russian
children clamor for gum," she
said. "I imagine that's the
only time I'll get really home
sick, when I see the kids." ,

New Electronic Hair Dryer
May Change Beauty Routine
Houston, Tex. - (UPD - A new
electronic hair dryer which
can dye, bleach or curl hair
soon may eliminate long, hot
sessions in a beauty shop.
The dryer . has been de
veloped by a Houston beau
tician, Dallas Weatherholt. He
and his partners have applied
for patents on the machine
and hope to have it manu
factured and distributed na
tionally.
The . dryer utilizes radio
short waves which Weather
holt said can dry hair in one
third the time needed under
conventional dryers.
The machine also is noise
less and heat-free.
In addition to drying hair
quickly, the gadget will dye
or bleach hair in a few min
utes into hard-to-curl hair in
about one minute; straighten
or marcel hair; and dry finger
nail polish.
'. Weatherholt, a former
Army barber turned beauti
cian, started working on new
methods of drying hair seven
years ago.
"I got tired listening to
women complain about long
sessions under a hot dryer,"
he said.
: He first considered sound
waves, then nuclear energy.
But .neither was feasible with
out possible dangers to both
customer and operator. Final
ly, he turned to electronics.
Weatherholt and a consult
ing engineer worked for four
years perfecting their elec
tronic dryer. When it was
completed, they found many
more uses for it.
Weatherholt first experi
mented on a rabbit. He dyed,
bleached and dried the rab
bit's fur many times before
deciding the dryer would
