(UPI Telephoto) Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Food Editor ' Con Mucho Gusio Lemon Fried Chicken It's a pleasure in any lan- the admiring family. Today we give popular, economy priced broiler-fryers new zest by adding fresh lemon juice to the seasoning sauce. For each four servings: H cup fresh lemon juice 14 locnnnn t.tU Vz teaspoon sugar Iz teaspoon pepper Vt teaspoon paprika Is teaspoon garlic powder V cup salad oil Vz teaspoon prepared mus tard 1 2Vz - 3 pound frying chicken, cut-up Salt and pepper V4 cup shortening or ofl.

Pour lemon sauce over chicken; cover tightly and cook slowly 30 to 40 minutes or until tender. Keeping Nuts Fresh Because nuts are a favorite holiday food, we give tips on nut storage. Nuts in the shell keep better than shelled nuts and unsalted nuts keep better than salted. All nuts keep better at a cold temperature than in a warm place. A small quantity or nuts keep better in the refrigerator than out on a warm shelf in the kitchen. Nuts in vacuum- packed containers keep longer than those exposed to air. Filberts, almonds and pea nuts are better keepers than pecans and walnuts so why not use up the shelled andor opened pecans and walnuts first, keeping them cold and in tight containers, however. in the meantime. Red Devils Favored By Teen-agers For tempting teen-agers af ter any game, try these devil ed franks. They're called peppy red devils because they're made with the hottest barbecue sauce or with Mexi can taco sauce or some of each. Make several diagonal slashes about one inch apart across tops of frankfurters Pour hot sauce over slasnea franks. Broil in a shallow baking pan under low broiler heat for eight minutes. To serve, place deviled franks between split hot frankfurter buns. Puffy Cauliflower Cauliflower is justified in getting puffed up when it is dressed like this.

' Fare Thee Well In Soaring Sixties If it grows in America and is edible, it is likely to be found growing in our part of the country where sun, soil and rain conspire to produce much of the nation's abun dance of foodstuffs. We rejoice in being near the source of supply, find costs of fresh produce con sistently lower, quality con sistently higher than found in other areas. Short hauls, fast transportation are major factors. Demand for and supply of processed foods soar as we go into the 60s. Processors are doing an increasingly good job of providing convenience (ready-to-cook) foods at rea sonable cost coupled with better distribution methods. Frozen poultry, meat, fruits and vegetables in many forms are increasingly popular. We're eating . more canned foods in more varieties than ever before. A recent list of food available in cans num bered 1,029 ranging from aba- lone to youngberries. Plenty of Meat. Total red meat production continues up ward trend with 1960 per capita consumption estimated at 83 pounds of beef, 67 pounds of pork, 6 pounds of veal and 4.6 pounds of lamb. West coasters eat more lamb than anybody so our percent age is far above nation's aver age. Pork continues to be best buy with lamb reasonable along with ground beef and all beef braising and stewing cuts. Poultry. "Plentiful," "rec ord" and "near record" are words still being applied to broiler - fryers, stewing and roasting chickens, turkeys of all sizes. Egg prices are sea sonally low but variable; a bargain in nutrition at any time. Dairy Data. Milk produc tion is high assuring also plenty of cottage cheese, but ter, buttermilk, ice cream and a wide variety of hard cheeses at reasonable cost. Fruit and Vegetables. Look for specials in canned, frozen and -dried fruits, canned and frozen vegetables and dry beans. Plenty of fresh apples, avocados, grapefruit, small oranges, cranberries, tanger ines, lemons, bananas. Vege table bins feature red and white cabbage, carrots, cauli flower, broccoli, celery, green onions, lettuce, dry yellow onions, potatoes, squash varie ties, spinash and sweet pota toes. Backstairs: Ike's Writer Becomes Pop By MERRIMAN SMITH UPI White House Reporter Washington - (UPD - Back stairs at the White House: When Malcolm Moos was in Madrid last month with Presi dent Eisenhower, the chief White House speech writer be came a father for the fifth time. His wife was in Balti more at the time with the rest of the Moos family when the new little girl was born At the time, Moos was laboring abroad when the President had a few minutes between ceremonial engage ments. The writer would pop in if the Chief Executive had some free time and discuss the formation of the State of the Union message. When Moos returned to this country with Eisenhower, he still had a busy two weeks, pulling the message into final shape. One day just before the President delivered the mes sage last week, Mrs. Moos, an attractive blonde, informed her husband that he had not been home long enough for them to confer and agree on a name for the new baby. By comparison, this year's State of the Union message was brought into being with out the labor of some years past. That is, labor measured in the number of drafts. One year shortly after tak ing office, the President went through 30 different drafts of the State of the Union before going to Capitol Hill with the final product. This year's mes sage went through about a dozen drafts, not including several last -minute retyping jobs necessitated by minor changes. There's a story going around New York that Mamie Eisenhower, once her hus band was back in the White House after his recent 11-na-tion trip, broke down and wept copious tears of relief at his safe return. When they adjourned to the privacy of the family quarters on the second floor of the White House, Mamie is supposed to have clutched the President and boo-hooed all over the lot because she had suffered a hunch that he would come to some dreadful end abroad. This is a lot of nonsense, notwithstanding the so-called good source that has been peddling this fakery. Mrs. Eisenhower was in touch with the President fre quently during the trip. She knew he was in fine spirits and aside from the expected fatigue, was standing the trip better than most of the much younger people on his staff. And there s this question: If this great emotional scene took place in the family quar ters with only the two of them in the room, which one ran out and snitched? for this story, however: On the day the President arrived in Karachi, Iran, last month the emissaries of Presi dent Ayub Kahn made an ad vance trip through the neigh borhoods along the presiden tial line of march and sug gested rather firmly that no one hang the laundry out to dry while Eisenhower was in the vicinity. Two Sundays ago, when the President was in Augusta, Ga., the White House said the weather was so bad that the Chief Executive could not play golf. He fooled his own spokesmen, however. During a let-up in the fog, he went out without advertising the fact and played the short nine hole, par-three course back of his cottage.
