Add the touch of the Irish, and the combination is practically irresistible. "Flnian's Rainbow," which opened at Medford High school last evening for a three night run, has all of these plus the weight of a plot which has a moral Issue and the opening night audience ap parently found the combina tion a pleasing one.

C. - Parents who worry about the "gang," club or group their teen-agers belong to may gain new un derstanding about what these associations mean from a new Children s Bureau publica tion, "Your Children and Their Gangs." In a foreword to the new publication, Mrs. Katherlne B. Oettinger, chief of the Chil dren's Bureau, explained that it was written "to give par ents fresh insight into why their youngsters will give their greatest interest and even loyalty to a gang or club at some periods and seem to become almost strangers in their own homes. The publication was written by Dr. Ninr, Rldcnour,' secre tary to the Ittleson Family foundation of New York City and consultant to the Mental Health Materials center, and Mrs. Edith G. Neisser, a writ er who has specialized In the field of parent education and child development, "Your Children and Their Gangs" discusses the meaning of these groups, how they help children to grow, what meant by the group "code," the forms which groups may take, and It outlines construc tive ways in which parents can express their Interest in these activities. Copies of "Your Children and Their Gangs" may be pur chased from the Superintend ent of Documents, U. S. Gov ernment Printing Office, Washington 25, D. C, for 20 cents each.

Ohio - IUPD - Young sters of the future may de mand their weekly allow ances In trading stamps. One stamp company announced Its new Kiddle Klub trading stump plan for children, ages Women's News Rainbow7 Nighters the production, and the end of the program clapping was especially hearty. The story of this musical fantasy concerns a wily Irish man who comes to America with a pot of gold and a get- rich-quick scheme. He has, of course, a beautiful daughter who falls in love with a young union organizer; the plot thickened with a leprechaun, a land-grabbing Southern sen ator, and his share-croppers, both black and white. Last night the leading roles were played by Kathy Allen, Wally Huffman. Joel Greg ory and Larry Berg. Miss Al len and young Gregory are especially good in the title role of the Irishman and his pretty daughter. Joel Greg ory's diction and ability to project stood him in good stead, and Miss Allen gives an appealing and sweet per formance as the daughter. She has a clear, true soprano voice supported by poise and an easy stage presence, Young Huffman turned in a stable performance, in spite of being beset by a cold. Larry Berg, the seml-mortalish lep rechaun, forgot his lines and doesn't have much of a voice for singing but in spite of this the audience loved him. He must be something of a lepre chaun at heart. Fred Lorlsh displayed a tal ent for comedy in his playing of Buzz Collins,' and Ralph Lobdell turned in a good-performance as Senator Billboard Rawkins who discovers, when his own skin turns black, that It's what's inside that counts and not the color of what's outside. The' audiences ; also took pleasure in the performance of Jo Ann Johnson, as "Susan the Silent" whose dancing feet must talk for her since her tongue cannot. Mike Higgins plays Henry, the little Negro boy who understands her dancing and can tell others what she is "saying." A dozen or so students do well 1 in the smaller roles which are necessary to spice a successful musical comedy. There is also an especially lively and well-trained danc ing chorus and it seemed to this reporter that the chorus this year has achieved a more polished vocal ensemble effect than in past years. The cast is large and the stage not really adequate for such a production, but In spite of these difficulties, Di rector Lynn Sjolund and his num'erous assistants achieved a smooth production,. Warren Wolf of the school faculty designed; the set and John Drysdale .coached the orchestra which played the overture and background mu sic. Colleen Hope was respon sible for the choreography of the dances, and trained the dance chorus, with Sandra Lalng assisting. Mrs. Ruth Hockersmith assisted with cos tumes, which are colorful as well as sometimes amusing, particularly for the "When the Idle Poor Become the Idle Rich" scene. I Gary Lovre. the pianist, and Virginia Dcrlckson, organist, are the accompanists. A few roles are double cast, and the second cast will give tonight's performance. Satur day night will see last night's performers returning for the final production. Curtain time is 8 p.m. and reserved seats are still available. O.S. Mothers'Club Discusses Show The annual hobby show was discussed at a meeting of West Side Mothers' club held Feb ruary 8 in the school cafe teria. Mrs. R. E. Watson, presi dent, presided. Members interested in legis lative measures concern i n g education were urged to ob tain Informative materials from the school office. Various ideas as to how the annual spring hobby show might be Improved or broad ened were discussed. Plans were made to furnish the teachers' lounge and in stall floodlights for the park ing area. The American Cancer So ciety film, "Breast Self -Examination," was shown. Dr. John T. Brandenburg held a question and answer period following the film. , Hostesses for the evening were Mrs. Leonard Carlson, Mrs. Ellis Charticr and Mrs. William Salade.

The decorations are femin ine and frilly, especially ap propriate for this romantic season, and range from party invitations to centerpieces and place mats, all in an ensemble of coordinated design. The main items Incorporate the use of honeycomb paper, which expands to give a three dimensional effect. Designs follow the traditional roses, hearts and flowers themes, and also modernistic treat ments such as the "kiss-giggle napkin" that is included in a contemporary party ensem ble. A red honeycomb heart, 15 inches tall and framed on a white background is one of the most adaptable new dec orations, adding interest to doors, mirrors or mantels. There's also a major ensem ble, centered around an old fashioned stage coach center piece fashioned from red and white honeycomb and lacy cut-out design. This unit starts with an In vltation in traditional roses and floral designs which match the centerpiece theme, napkins, dinner plates, cups, place . mats, coasters, favors, nut cups, place cards, bridge tallies and aprons. Contemporary items carry the same rib-tickling humor of contemporary greeting cards, "Be mine, you fool . . . is the message' on one snack plate, "at least until the party's over."

But she avoid ed spit-roasted fox in Green land. Not because her spirit of adventure was flagging. She had been warned that the fox might Jeanne Leiem carry rabies. This didn t faze local Eskimos, she added, who breakfasted on the fox and American choc olate bars. As a free lance food scout for several leading New York restaurants, Miss Sheraton also has sampled sates (skew ered broiled marinated meat and poultry) at open-air stands in Singapore, shared native meals in many Asian homes and watched Russian chefs at work in Moscow restaurants. Her culinary research cov ered four months and more than a dozen countries in Europe . and Asia. Modified versions of the recipes she brought back eventually will appear on the menus at eat eries run by Restaurant Asso ciates, Inc. Cooking Make Kin Cooking apparently makes the whole world kin, regard less of politics. Miss Sheraton said in an interview that Rus sian chefs appeared delighted at her interest and willingly conducted cooking demonstra tions in their kitchens. She found their recipes interesting and the portions generous, but food preparation "not always what it should be." The Asian food she sampled was more exotic, by American standards. In Lebanon, she also ate steamed snails dipped into sesame oil and pureed chick peas, klbbeh (raw ground lamb kneaded with oil and bulgur, a parched, crushed wheat) and tabbouleh, made of chopped parsley, bul gur, tomatoes and garlic. . In Turkey she ate donner kebab, barbecued lamb done on a vertical spit before an sea of creamy smooth sauce entree, The nutritious dish dish, along with buttered green with topping, and milk.

Besides new recipes for res taurants, Miss Sheraton ex pects her research to yield several articles and a travel book for an international air line. Eating out whets her ap petite rather than reduces it, she added. AH I ever do is get ready to go to the next restaurant," she laughed., "During three years as restaurant writer for a magazine, I ate in 700 res taurants, not counting re peats." Husband Helps In private life, Miss Shera ton is the wife of a depart ment store merchandising manager, Richard Falcone, who shares her enthusiasm for dining out. "He's invaluable," she said. "I need a second opinion in sampling new foods." Their two-year-old son, Marc, is too young to be much of an authority, but his nick name for his globe-trotting mother is Mimi Hong Kong. As a food scout, she must eat the local dishes; as a tour ist, she thinks it s a healthful idea. I think it's a mistake to eat anything but native food, based on local products and necessities. You run less risk eating a native dish, over cooked by our standards, than you would by insisting on American-style foods, under done by their local customs."
