At the outset of the tour, which began with a reception on the spacious roof garden (overlooking Central Park) of the Hotel Pierre, guests were greeted by top executives of the host company. After the reception, a sneak preview of the new General Foods Kit chens 20-minute color film was shown and a presentation made of the company's new "All About Home 'Baking" cookbook. Editors then journeyed to the hotel's Cotillion Room where the travel theme was continued during the dinner service and the extraordinar ily elaborate program of en tertainment. E n t e rtainment cues were taken from the foods served on the Interna tional menu, with dances and or songs highlighting coun tries in which the foods origi nated. For example, the main course, which represented a visit to India, featured Bom bay Curry 1' Indienne served with saffron minute rice. East Indians in costume offered flaked coconut and other con diments appropriate to this specialty. Last course was the oc casion for traveling far and wide - first a visit to South America, gaily represented by Brazilian dances, for demi tasse; to Africa, to the sound of native drums - and finally to the Philippines for a spirit ed rendition of The Tinikling, charmingly introduced by the distinguished Consul Belen Bautista. The end of this dance was the signal for entrance of the dessert which featured Ba ker's new fine grated coconut as topping for ice cream in infinite ways and combined with German's chocolate in little macaroon cup cakes. Following these delights, the editors then enjoyed a modern Version of Franz Lehar'g "Merry Widow" which is the current musical comedy at traction of the Pierre's famed Cotillion Room. After this tour of good eat ing and entertainment, two o'clock in the morning found your food scribe at the type writer reporting dutifully and searching for new adjectives. Seafood for Breakfast ? Came the dawn all too soon. The very next morning found us breakfasting elegantly on South African rock lobsters as the guests of the South Afri can Rock Lobster association, No taste for seafood at first- meal time? You might change your mind if you were offered thin crepes-suzette type pan cakes rolled around a rock lobster and chives combina- tion. A baked egg-and-rock lob ster casserole might prove a memorable breakfast occasion worthy of repeating. The elaborate breakfast buffet table also offered oranged rock lobster tails with golden- , brown patties made of homey hominy grits that had been browned in butter. There was a rock lobster omelet that combined diced rock lobster meat and mushrooms as the filling. Vac etranno as It mav seem. we're going to further explore the delights of this seafood delicacy at breakfast, having long favored it at eventide. This annual get-together of food editors serves many pur poses, and much good solid information, ideas, recipes of the country's top home econo mists have been garnered for sharing with readers in the future. We've given this re port more or less the glamour treatment because so many readers like it that way. Retail Food Price Index Addressing the newspaper food editors of the country at their conference at the Wal dorf - Astoria Hotel in New York, Paul S. Willis, presi dent of Grocery Manufactur ers of America, Inc., pointed out a popular misconception on the part of consumers Each month the government issues the "Retail. Food Price Index." This is generally be lieved to be a measurement of the trend of food prices which consumers pay at the grocery store. It should be realized that .the government report lumps the prices paid at the grocery store with prices paid for meals at res taurants, declared the grocery industry spokesman. Restaurant meal prices - or, as the index calls them, "Food Awav From Home prices have risen about 18 per cent since they were first separate ly published in 1953. On the other hand, grocery store food prices - or "Food At Home prices have remained quite stable. The government bases this "Food At Home Index" on a market basket containing a representative assortment of more than 80 important foods widely consumed. The combined price of this market basket in the first eight months of 1960 was 2 per cent below the peak year 1958 and even slightly below the peak of eight years ago, namely August, 1952, Willis said. Consumers are buying more and better quality foods; many are feeding larger families. These items help account for bigger grocery bills. It is also true that many are buying more items at super markets which were previously bought elsewhere and which do not properly belong on the groc ery bill. Week's Best Buys ' Fresh western-grown vege tables: carrots, cauliflower, celery, broccoli, artichokes, tomatoes, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, lettuce and other salad greens are In top sup ply for your gastronomic en joyment. Also white and sweet potatoes, onions and buzchini for additional va riety. Cranberries are in creasing in supply; the perfect complement for economical servings of turkey and broiler fryers. Excellent supplies of beef . . . and, of course, some outstanding October Cheese Festival specials. Many other good buys in the grocery department. TO VISIT RED CHINA - Hong Kong - (UPD - William C.

Action on Zone Change for Interchange Area Deferred Medford's city planning commission Thursday night deferred action on a request for a change of zone for prop erty on Crater Lake highway near the proposed interchange with the Pacific Freeway. Attorney Bill Deatherage, representing Mrs. Josephine Jones, told the commission that the property is located on the highway between the tele vision station buildings and Bear creek. He said his client wants the zone changed from single family to limited commercial so that a Richfield Oil service station can be erected there. , Deatherage said the prop erty is not good for residential purposes and that a "service station would probably be more beautiful than the pres ent television station." Commission Chairman Paul Selby noted that the commis sion has not yet decided what to do with property near inter changes. He pointed out that the commission has deferred action on several similar re quests in the past. . Selby said: "I don't like to see it delayed too much long er but it does fall into the policy of what are we going to do with interchanges." The commission elected to continue the public hearing on the matter until the next meeting. A public hearing was called on another request for change of zone in this area. This prop erty is also located on Crater Lake highway just south of the television station. The owner wants the prop erty changed from single family to limited commercial zone so he may be allowed to operate a plumbing shop at this location.. The commission called a public hearing on the matter for its next meeting, The commission gave its recommendation to a request for a change of zone from Class IA to Class II at 2120 Table Rock rd. Henry Friesen, who made the request, told the commis sion- that much of this area was rezoned to multiple fami ly in the past but it did not in clude his property It was understood that Frie sen wanted to erect multiple family type dwellings on this property. The commission said this request was in line with proposed future use of this area and recommended that the council approve the change. A request for a change of zone . from single family to heavy industrial was approv ed for three lots on Welch st. adjacent to the Southern Pa cific railroad tracks. Commission Member El- wood Hedberg, who had been appointed by the commission to study the request, said the property in this area is suit able for "this type of thing." He cautioned however, that there are some dwelling units around these lots, including one nice one." However, the owners of tnese properties have apparently voiced no ob jection to the request, he said. Setback Variance The commission recom mended approval for a vari ance In the setback require ments to allow erection of a patio cover at 509 West 11th St. It also recommended ap proval to its own proposal that a section of Crestbrook rd. between Ellendale and Highland dr. be renamed Greenwood st. A public hear ing on the matter was held last night but no one appeared to speak. SECURITIES SALESMEN - here's your chance to GROW!
