' 4 t 8 D- THURSDAY, MARCH 30. 1961 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, ORE 15 EASTER BREAKFAST The best dressed Easter breakfast tables will be wearing Hot Cross buns and some of the children s Easter eggs, of course. Also suggested are these casseroled eggs, mushrooms and link sausages for festive serving early or late in the morning. Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Food Editor Entertaining for Easter Brunch Made Easy Call it breakfast or brunch dependent on the earliness or lateness of the hour that seems most' convenient for a gathering of the clan. 'Iradt tions of good eating, long as sociated with Easter festivals are the inspiration for a bountiful meal. We have pictured Hot Cross Buns with plenty of molded butter balls ' and a creamy mixture of hard cooked eggs, mushrooms and plump sausages nestling in golden brown toast points in individual ramekins. We complete the picture with an arrangement of Easter eggs and other motifs garnered from the earlier "hunt." We complete the meal with a pitcher of -iilt juice, plenty of steaming hot coffee for the grownups, milk for the children. Preparation Ahead Preoaration shortcuts leave the hostess free to attend church, join the- Easter pa rade, to enjoy visiting or other activities. The eggs may be hard-booked the day be fore, the white sauce pre pared while the sausages are browning. Maybe you can use up some of those experimen tal eggs the children deco rated. Hot Cross Buns The Hot Cross Buns, fresh from your baker are kept warm and fragrant like this: Place buns in a warm un- greased, uncovered skillet and heat over moderate heat for two minutes or so. This quick and . easy, top-of-the- ranee heating of buns pre vents the icing from melting. Have butter at room tempera ture for easy spreading, Eggs and Muihroomi . On Toast Points In this eggs and mushrooms specialty, golden brown toast points peaking up from the creamed a la king mitxure enhances the apearance ' as well as texture and good eat ing qualities of the finished product.

Insert a toast triangle on either side of casserole and place a link lausage In center of each casserole. Lunch-Supper Item. Come to think of it, this is a fine luncheon or supper dish for enjoyment any time. ' Our Daily Bread Over 40 million loaves of bread arc . sold . every day Some bakers bake as many ns 200 different . varieties of breads and rolls dally to satis fy consumer demands. Fresh Rhubarb Btays Ruby Red with Honey - The delights of fresh rhu barb sauce arc many; the swect-tart taste, the texture, the extraordinary ruby red color. We've found that we capture all three when we add only Oregon honey as sweetening. We suggest both saucepan and baking dish methods; like it best when baked quickly. - You may want to add a few fresh strawberries ... or a few thin lemon slices. Many think honeyed rhubarb super lative when served with dairy sour cream as dessert. Saucepan. Cut one pound (four cups) unpeeled fresh rhubarb in inch pieces. Blend well with one cup honey, one- fourth teaspoon salt. No wat er. Cook over low heat stir ring ever so gently about five minutes or untl sauce is consistency you desire. Baked. Cut one pound (four cups) rhubarb into inch pieces without peeling. Put in bak ing dish. Blend well with one cup honey and one-fourth tea spoon salt; cover with lid or aluminum foil. Bake in mod erate oven, 350 degrees, 20 minutes. Remove cover and bake a' few minutes longer if necessary. Refrain from stir ring, retain that perfect tex ture, ruby red color. Fruit Scones So Easy to Make For a quick, easy-to-make kaffecklatch treat, start with a biscuit mix and bring 12 delicious fruit scones from the oven in less than 20 minutes. 2 cups prepared biscuit mix V4 cup raisins 2 tablespoons sugar 1 tablespoon grated orange rind i to 23 cup milk (enough to make soft dough) Combine biscuit mix, rai sins, sugar and orange rind Stir in milk. Roll dough around on lightly floured board Into a nine-Inch round Brush top with milk and dust with sugar. Cut into triangles. Bake on ungreascd baking sneet in hot oven, 429 de grees for about 10 minutes. Serve hot- with plenty of room-temperature butter. If It's Ham You're Having West coasters long have fa vored pineapple with ham Here .we give you three ways that dramatically combine these popular foods. Ruby Red Glaie. Cook whole or half ham according to your favorite method, then apply this quick, pretty glaze, For a wh le ham, whip one- third cup currant jelly and spread over scored surface of ham. Use sections of cocktail picks or toothpicks to affix pineapple slices with mara schino cherries centered; re turn ham to preheated 400 de gree oven for 15 minutes. Ham Slice Hawaiian, Pan broil ham slice; when done, remove ham and add drained pineapple chunks or tidbits and a little brown sugar to juices. Turn gently until hot and translucent, then spoon over ham and serve. Crln-Crojied Ham. Cut deep, wide diagonal grooves from fat, top side of baked ham. Score remaining fat strips; pat with brown sugar and stick with cloves. F;:! grooves with drained crushed pineapple and return to 375 degree oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Caicaronei Are Fun To Make, Decorate Again wo remind you how to mnke cascarones (pro nounced kaska-roncs); those empty eggshells that arc so easy to do, so much fun to decorate, so much fun to fill with confetti and throw cas ually at unsuspecting persons, Use them first for Easter dec oration. They're so fragile that it is best to decorate them with deculs or pastc-ons rather than risking a dye bntli. Flat end of uncooked egg is gently chipped to mnke a hole about an eighth of an Inch across. The more pointed end Is punctured with an ice pick Blowing through the smaller hole forces the egg out of the larger hole. After drying a short time, the smaller hole Is sealed with tape or a bit of colored paper. Confetti Is poured into larger hole which Is then scaled. Hav. fun! Use shell contents for any usual purpose. ' EGCJ OUTLOOK .Vew York-IUPD-Fprfprnl nnr. chases of dried eggs for dis tribution to the needy is ex pected to encourage farmers to build up their flocks even more. Market observers fear that by fall resultine hirr,.n,- in egg production could once again depress prices. Professor Claims Few Are Taking Math Seriously Washington - IUPD - You are in good company if you feel stupid about mathematics, a Michigan State University- Oakland professor says. Prof. Robert T. Wisner told a mathematics conference at Mt. Vernon Junior college here that "undergraduate mathematics has for almost everyone the properties of a stunefacient. (For those of you who feel stupid about stupefacient, it means something that Induces sleep or stupofacation, such as a narcotic.) "One is impressed. I guess I should say depressed, by the gen erally outdated curricu lum, the abundance of trivial courses which pay off with col lege credit, and the unimagi native teaching which our stu dents must suffer," Wisner told the conference. "The payoff Is hardly sur prising," he said. "Few find it Interesting enough to take It seriously enough to become a mathematician." No Attraction Wisner said that no other field of knowledge fails as mathematics does in attracting its undergraduate majors into a graduate school. Wisner said he represented the committee on the Under graduate Program in Mathe matics of the Mathematical As sociation of America (CUPM), which is trying to do some thing about the situation. But he emphasized some of the views he was expressing were his personally, not those of CUPM. He also pointed out that he was not indicating all undergraduate mathemat ics curricula. After touring the country, however, he said, "I can as sure you that the college mathematics situation is al most unbelievably bad." "Bad-very bad-but not de spairing," he said, "for pitted against this note is the reali zation by colleges that some thing must be done." He outlined programs for improving the qualifications of those teaching mathematics and also proposed that more of the subject be fed to stu dents before they reach the college level. CUPM will hold four conferences of mathe maticians and teacher educa tion professors, he said. These conferences will be held at Miami Beach, San Francisco, Chicago and New York. At present, Wisner said, "mathematicians simply seem to fall to imbue undergraduate mathematics majors with enough desire or knowledge to take mathematics seriously. ". , . Mathematics students must by and large commit themselves to graduate school to learn what mathematics is about." Three Accidents Reported in City Three two-vehicle accidents were reported to city police Tuesday, and a fourth acci dent involved a dog. Christian Schcmpp, 64, of 2117 Hillcrcst dr., was cited by police for following too close after his vehicle hit a Pacific-Northwest c o m p any truck which stopped -or traf fic on East Main st. between Almond st. and the Bear Creek bridge. Operator of the truck was Phillip Beardsley Miles, 32, of 620 Pennsylvania ave.

SURVIVAL IDEA New York - tUPO A New York firm Suviv-all, Inc., is offering for $5.08 a survival' kit of 24 pounds of canned! food - guaranteed to keep a person alive and healthy 14 1 days In caso of atomic attack,! Corvallis - Oregon State college is one of eight U.S. colleges selected to spearhead a new civil defense education program on fallout shelters this year. OSC has signed a contract with the federal government to conduct a series of work shops on fallout shelter de sign for architects and engi neers of Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, and Alaska. The seven other institutions will carry out similar pro grams in other' sections of the country. The workshops will show architects and engineers bow to incorporate fallout shelters into homes and public build ings at lowest possible cost, and yet with a high degree of protection against gamma radiation which would result from nuclear attack. Training will stress the urg ency of developing protection for a substantial segment of the population as a safeguard against nuclear fallout; the "insurance" value of the shel ters (they Increase chances of survival 100 plus times); and the design of economical shelters. Three OSC staff members who completed an intensive civil defense seminar earlier I are Herbert R. Sinnard, head I Man and Gordon W. Bee- this month In Michigan will of the department of archi- croft, civil engineering pro conduct the workshops. They tecturc; and Thomas J. Mc-1 fessors.

Shelter protection can be obtained cheaply .nd eas ily in houses with a basement, he added. A basement corner shelter can be made inexpen sively with concrete blocks forming the other two sides and a concrete slab and sand bags for overhead shielding. Special Purpose Rooms The shelters need not be large or "waste space" re served for just attack either, he stressed. They can be used for food storage, dark room, seclu.ion room, or other spe cial purposes the family may want. The important thing is that families take civil de fense warnings to heart and do some thinking and plan ning toward protection in event of nuclear war. McClellan noted the great possibilities open in public and industrial buildings for getting nuclear attack protec tion. A little planning can make such new buildingi adapted for shelter purposes, oftentimes without additional cost and sometime.! at a sav ing, he said. Some of the heavily popu- lated areas of the East are taking protection factors into consideration when planni libraries, schools, hospi s ard other large buildings, Mc Clellan stated, but little has been done in most areas of '.' Northwest. Constructing Shelters In Russia, the government is constructing thousands o shelters and is steadily ex panding its civil defense pro gram on a "compulsory" basis the three noted. The tentative schedule calls for workshops for engineers and architects to be held in a WMla.nette valley city, Spo kane, Wash., and Boise, Idaho, before July 1. Other leading institutions picked to handle the program in other areas include the Universities of Florida, Texas, California, Colorado, and Fichigan along with Pennsyl vania State university and Wjrcester, Mass., Polytechnic Institute.
