MATERNITY SALE (SDK I TOPS w V 77 formerly to 7.98 I I IN THE MEDFORD SHOPPING CENTER i I V a nrwirnn birl in KUSSIQ Tells of Dating Experience (This is the third of three dispatches by an American bachelor girl working in Moscow.) By ALINE MOSBY United Press International Moscow "I can't meet to go to a Communist Party That was the opening Russian. It's staggering dialogue States, where even if you wouldn't broadcast it. But it soon sinks in that here a Com munist is an honored member of society. For that reason, a Communist is the safest date in Moscow, both from your viewpoint and his. My date suggested we meet downtown. In this case that seemed natural enough. I dreamed of investigating small bistros and mingling witn " the people on some dam sidestreet while gypsy violins wailed "Dark Eyes." But a taxi deposited us at an ornate marble - and - potted palm tourist hotel. Under mammouth crystal chandeliers in trie dining room, we ate strogahoff and caviar and danced with other foreigners and a few Russians to the 1935 beat of a Soviet jazz band. After dinner, my date proudly took me to a "cock tail room" for a cocktail, Rus sian style. It was very sweet, very pink. He thought that being western, that's the sort of evening I'd like. Observations After this fascinating oc casion, I have four observa tions of Russian men: They are straightforward, like American men, and don't go in for the Latin hand-kiss ing routine; they drink vod ka as if it were going out of style tomorrow; they are sen sitive and proud of their country; and their sense of humor is different.' ' For example, I brought my friend a cartoon from the New Yorker magazine be cause it flattered Soviet sci ence. It showed two Moscow housewives chatting while their- babies scribbled, not aimless doodles, but advanced mathematical problems on the sidewalk. My Russian date studied the cartoon. Then he shook his head and said seriously. But it's not true, you know." Well, that ended that conver sation. My Russian friends don't in vite me to their homes. But friendships are possible in these "mir-druzhba" (peace friendship) days. Russians in official positions also visit our apartments for an official-appearing large party (with lots of Scotch). Number Present In fact, the success of a soiree is judged in the foreign colony by how many Russians accept your invitation. A three-Russian party is admir able, and if you can get the editor of Izvestia or Pravda to come, you're a social smash. For small parties at home, I fix buffet suppers for other foreigners. The conversation is in a mixture of French, English and Russian. The oth er night in my Moscow living room I proudly counted two Italian journalists, one French and two English, and that's long, exotic way from my home town of Missoula, Mont.

And all winter I can go to the Boishoi and Moise yev Ballet that Americans stood in line to see. But I miss sidewalk cafes, coffee houses and drugstore counters.

These parties are in some ways like the Hollywood cock tail parties I used to cover for UPI only more exciting. In stead of talking show business, we talk politics. Instead of meeting starlets in lowcut dresses we share the hors d'oeuvres table with Khru- schev and Mikoyan. There are fans out in front watching the limousines pull up, but the celebrities the Russians crowd around to watch aren't movie stars but us!

(UPI Telephoto) Cool Nerves, Warm Friends Necessary for By JEANNE LESEM ' United Press International New York (UPD Cool nerv es and warm friendships are essential to the hostess plan ning a large party. But if the thought of serv ing dinner to even 20 persons puts you on tranquilizers, read no further. What follows is advice to woman who would,, like to discharge a mass of social ob ligations by throwing one party without servants - for as many as 80 guests. The advisor is Florence Brobeck, a cookbook author whose latest work-"The Fam ily Book of Home Entertain-ing"-was published last fall. Obviously, you need good nerves to attempt entertain ment on so large a scale Warm friendships are an as set, said Miss Brobeck in an interview, because the lack of hired help leads a hostess to count on friends and family for assistance. If one friend is a restaura teur, you're in luck. He tan lend utensijs for quantity cookery, including enamel pots or crocks, which are pre ferred to metal containers for both salads and iced bever ages. Or you can borrow equip ment from your church. Except for a mixed salad, featuring chicken or potatoes, the author suggests do-it-yourself dishes. For instance: platters of cheese and cold cuts, with side dishes or jars of pickles and relishes, mustard, mayon naise and Thousand Island dressings, and whipped but- Selections From My Fair Lad To Precede Play To add to the enjoyment of the production, the Medford school orchestra will play several musical numbers be fore curtain time and between acts for "Pygmalion", senior class play.

Fancy canapes take too long to prepare. So, for the cock tail hour, stock up on ready made snacks crackers sea soned with corn, cheese, cel ery, poppyseed and sesame seeds. These nibblers are good alone or with a cheese dip. Add potato chips, mixed salted nuts and macadamia nuts. All olives, mixed pickles and cocktail gherkins should be speared on picks in ad vance, said Miss Brobeck, "be cause guests tend to re-use picks unless each snack comes with its own." Soft drinks can be cooled and served in the bottles with straws. You can even serve ice cream if dry ice is available to keep institutional size con tainers well-frozen until mealtime. The cost for such a large scale party? It depends on actual num ber of guests, the locale, and whether you're entertaining with soft drinks or something more potent.

The meeting was held at the home of Mrs. Bruce Bateman, 3040 Tablerock Road. Co hostesses were Mrs. Peter Bateman and Mrs. Robert Ayers. Mrs. Turner and Mrs. Shaf fer, in giving the lesson, point ed out that the required label on garmets, if understood and used by the consumer, will give truthful information about merchandise and help eliminate confusion about the many fiber trade names, many of which represent the same basic fiber. Fiber identifica tion can be invaluable to the homemaker, it was said. They are a clue to the right temperature for washing, dry ing and pressing - also, spot removals and storage. If a con sumer would learn the generic fiber names they would be able to identify them easily when they are paired with fiber trademarks, the listeners were told. A discussion period followed the lesson. During the business meet ing, Mrs. Bruce Bateman was appointed secretary as re placement for Mrs. Richard Hawkins and Mrs. Thomas Merrimen replaced Mrs. Clif ford Thomas as health and safety chairman.

It is now ! economically feasible to sup plement the world's relatively large supply of cereal foods (wheat, corn, etc.). which are low in protein quality, with the essential amino acid, L lysine, and other protein-rich sources. This converts such products as bread into sources of proteins that are nutrition ally equal to the high-quality proteins in meat and milk, ac cording to a Du Pont nutri tion scientist. ; Supplementation of . bread with a combination of both L-lysine and an additional protein-rich source soy flour or milk solids, for example provides a greater improve ment in nutrition value than when either L-lysine or a pro tein-rich source is used alone.
