Medford Women Seek Adventure;
Take Canoe Trip Down Willametfe
Two adventurous Medford
women are looking forward
to other canoe trips on Ore
gon streams, undaunted by
the fact that they almost
drowned while making their
iirsl one.
" The two women, Mrs.
George Flanagan and Mrs.
Sam Taylor returned home
last Friday after having spent
Jive days in various phases of
flie excursion. This included
the trip to Eugene by car, load
ed with the canoe and equip
ment; launching of the craft
On the Willamette at Eugene,
the upsetting of the canoe and
Joss or thorough wetting of
their clothing and supplies
when the expedition had hard
ly started, and a night spent
in a home near the river
where a kind family helped
them dry out their sleeping
bags and clothing in order
that the adventure might con
tinue. Mrs. Flanagan and Mrs.
Taylor had made what they
thought were rather thorough
preparations for the trip. Af

and families that they had
not "lost their minds" and
promising to wear life jackets
for the entire trip, they
studied maps of the river,
gathered information about
currents', etc., and practiced
with the canoe on the pond of
Elk Lumber company. (Mr.
Flanagan is manager of the
company).
Take No Food
They decided not to take
any food, but to trust to the
good natures of friends and
relatives along the way, and
were also hopeful that there
might be small stores or other
places where food could be
obtained.
They drove to Eugene Mon
day, parked the car, launched
the canoe and not long there
after capsized when the cur
rent around a sandbar "which
was a lot swifter Mian we
thought it was going lo be"
swept them under some low
hanging branches of river-side
I roes. For a time both women
were thoroughly frightened
and very busy. They at length
righted the canoe, which has
the air compartments to make
the craft safer, rescued their
possessions, with the excep
tion of Mrs. Flanagan's bill
fold with her identification
papers and driver's license,
made it to shore, spread their
clothing on blackberry bushes
lo dry, and then sat down lo
plan their strategy. It began
to rain.

Miller, and Mrs. Harris B. James. Mrs.
Bodin is spending several months with her

her home about a year ago. The tea. held in
the garden of the Frohnmayer home, is al
ways one of the largest of the benefit
parties given during the summer.
left lo find help, with Mrs.
Taylor, who had lost one of
her only pair of shoes, re
maining with the equipment.
The Medford woman made
her way, after considerable
walking, lo the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Clifford Jensen of
Junction City. When Mrs.
Flanagan explained the pre
dicament to the Jensens, and
apologized for troubling them,
Mr. Jensen said "Oh, you're
not the first ones to come up
out of the river."
The kind man look a farm
automobile lo the scene of the
accident, brought back Mrs.
Taylor and the equipment,
and tho four set about trying
to dry out the sleeping bans,
one of which was thoroughly
soaked. It was put into the
electric dryer, and Mrs. Flan
agan reports that it look al
most three hours lo get inlo
shape for use that night.
Tuesday morning Mr. Jen
sen returned the women lo
Eugene, where they picked up
the car and drove to Albany
to rest at the home of Mrs.
Flanagan's sister. At this
point they abandoned the en
tire idea of the canoe trip and
Wednesday morning actually
started lo drive to the beach
to spend the rest of their
vacation.
As they drove along all of
a sudden one said to the oth
er, "We're two chicken-hearted
coward s." The other
agreed, Mrs. Flanagan turned
Hie car around and they head
ed back to the river. By noon
they were on the water again
and having loariferi their les
son, were more cautious
about gravel bars and cur
rents. They traveled down the
river until nightfall, slept on
the bank and the next day
continued into Salem where
they wore met by Mrs. Tayl
or's sister, bearing food. The
shoeless Mrs. Taylor all this
time had been wearing one
shoe on one foot and two
stockings on Ihe other.
"We're real glad that we
didn't go on to the beach,
Mrs. Flnngan reported upon
their return to Medford. "It
was exciting and real fun.
Too many of us never have
any exeitemenl in our lives.
Now that we know about cur
rents, white water, etc.. we're
going to try again. All the
way home we kept looking
at rivers and streams and
wondering if we could navi
gate them in our canoe."
Roth Mrs. Flanagan and
Mrs. Taylor were filled with
praise for the hospitality of
the Jensens. Mrs. Flanagan's
main annoyance was directed
at an unknown man in the
Albany police department,
and at a reporter. After the
two women had checked in
with the Albany police con
cerning the loss of Mrs. Flan
agan's billfold and driver's
license, and had visited two
different offices, a slory in
the Albany-Domocrat-llorald
referred to them as "two
women who failed lo give
their names."
"We did too give our names,
along with our ages and a lot
of other information," protest
ed Mrs. Flanagan. "The story
sounded like we were running
away, or something. We just
wanted adventure and excite
ment, and we found both."

Home Canning,
Costs Cam pa red byOSC
Corvallis - How much can
be saved by canning and
freezing foods al some? Or can
home-makers save more by
filling the freezer or cup
board shelf with store-pur
chased foods?
Oregon families need their
own individual "slide rule"
of values to answer these
questions, says MPs. Ruth
Klippstein, Oregon State Col
lege extension nutritionist.
They can save more, in both
time and money, on some
foods than others.
To compare costs, first fig
ure expenses of home freez
ing and canning. Freezing
costs at least three cents a
pound for packaging and nlay
add up to 25 cents a pound
for food, packaging and freez
er operation. For this reason,
a may be cheaper to shop for
some frozen foods and let the
grocer pay for year-around
storage, she says.
Other costs that should be
considered are availability of
raw foods, transportation
costs, and the value placed on
homcmakers' time.
Canning containers average
between 5 to 8 cents for jars
and lids. Other costs include
raw food, plus other ingre
dienls, and canning equip
ment. Use Canneries
Mrs. Klippstein also sug
gests that homemakers look
to custom canneries for short
cuts in more time-consuming
or messy chores.
Corn, for example is one
food that canneries will help
get ready for canning or free&
ing. Husking, blanching and
cutting whole kernels takes
only a few minutes with a
cannery's power equipment,
she continues.
Any homemaker who has
cleaned up a kitchen after
canning corn will appreciate
not having to pick up silk and
kernels that are scattered dur
ing the process, she says. Corn
may be taken home in dish
pans for canning or freezing
or be canned at the cannery.
Homemakers will probably
save by doing their freezing

Buying
at home, she notes. Tomato
juices and applesauce are oth
er suggested cannery jobs.
Homemakers can give them
selves an extra day's vacation
from home canning this year
if they skip making apple but
ter, catsup and chili sauce at
home. It takes all day to pre
pare these products and com
mercially prepared ones are
excellent quality and about
the same in cost.
Oregon homemakers seem
to prefer to can peaches and
pears for fresh full flavors.
They also are able to satisfy
family preferences for sweet
ness preferred.
On a strictly dollar and
cents basis, some foods may
be cheaper to buy than to put
up at home. Sweet pickles, for
example, cost more to make
than dills because of extra
sugar called for in sweet
pickle recipes. Yet, sweet
pickles are about the same
price as dills at the market.
Shoppers can also take ad
vantage of large quantity pur
chase prices offered on sum
mer freezer sales. Stores often
feature fall Oarvcst sales or
mid-winter canned food sales
that provide substantial sav
ings.

Federal Standards Announced
For Frozen Desserts, Ice Cream
Washington, D.C. - Federal
standards for the composition
and labeling of ice cream and
other frozen desserts were an
nounced last week by the
Food and Drug administra
tion. The standardized products
are: regular ice cream; egg-
conlaining ice cream sold as
frozen custard, French ice
cream, or French custard ice
cream; ice milk often sold as
soft ice ;ream; fruit sherbets;
and, water ices.
The standards, FDA said,
should assure that the pur
chaser will be able to select
the product of choice. They
establish firm minimum re
quirements and provide a
sound basis for proceeding
against products cheapened
by the omission of expected
ingredients or the substitu
tion of inferior ingredients.
Food Vajue
The standards provide safe
guards against practices
which would result in adul
terated products, and permit
only ingredients of generally
recognized or proven safety,
FDA said.
In addition, the standards
for ice milk, fruit sherbets
and water ices should pre
vent these products from be
ing represented to consumers
as ice cream, or as having
greater food value than they
actually have, the agency
said.
For assyrancc of nutritive
quality, the standards require
(with certain specified excep
tions) that ice cream and
French ice cream contain at
least 20 per cent by weight
of mills solids, of which at
least 10 per cent must be milk
fat. Frozen custard or French
custards or ice creams must
also have a specified amount
of egg yolk solids. Parallel re
quirements for the other froz
en dairy products are:
Ice milk-Not less than 11
per cent of total milk solids,
of which not less than 2 per
cent and not more than 7 per
cent are milk fat.
Fruit Sherbets -Not more
than 5 per cent total milk sol
ids content, of which not less
than 1 per cent and not more
than 2 per cent are milk fat.
For protection against
cheapening ice cream, the
standards restrict the addi
tion of air and water to the
ice cream mix. To prevent ex
cessive aeration, ice cream is
required to weigh at least 4Vi
pounds per gallon. To prevent
adulteration by addition ofeously a new regulation un
to the modern story

far
water, the standards require
ice cream to have a total sol
ids content of not less than
1.6 pounds per gallon. To pre
v e n t possible adulteration
with permitted stabilizers, the
standards restrict the use of
any one or a combination of
stabilizers to not more than
4 of one per cent of the fin
ished ice cream. (Stabilizers,
in addition to retarding for
mation of ice crystals in stor
ed ice cream, also affect the
capacity of a mix to hold air,
make ice cream stiffer, drier,
and slower melting, and pro
vide smoothness)
The standard do not per
mit neutralizing agents which
would make it possible lo use
sour dairy ingredients.
The recent order conforms
with the tentative ice cream
standards published March 26,
1958, with these principal ex
ceptions: Artificial Flavorings
The flavor of vanilla ice
cream may be supplied by na
tural vanilla, artificial vanil
la (vanillin) or a blend. The
proposed standards published
in March, 1958, did not pro
vide for the use of artificial
flavoring in ice cream char
acterized by vanilla beans or
vanilla extract. This was a
major basis of industry objec
tions. The addition of natural or
artificial flavors to fruit sher
bets is also permitted by the
recent order, although not
contemplated by the former
proposal. Whether or not ar
tificial flavor is used, the
fruit sherbets must contain
proportions of fruits.
The package labels of ice
cream and fruit sher&ets are
required to inform consumers
of the use of any arjded flavor
ings whether natural or arti
ficial, except that where a
mixture of both natural and
artificial flavors so used, and
the artificial flavor predom
inates, only the artificial flav
or may be declared.
Casein and casein com
pounds made from skimmed
milk have been used to avoid
"sandiness" caused by the
crystallization of milk sugar
in high-rolids ice cream prod
ucts. The order permits their
use on condition that they do
not replace any part of the
required minimum of 20 per
cent total milk solids in ice
cream.

published standard, the agen
