18 B THURSDAY, JULY S, 1962 MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OHEGON Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Food Editor Chilled Soupi. Seledi, Sandwiches lor Summir Day We're deep Into the sand wiches and soups, soups and salads season. Hot day, cold coup. Hot soup, cold sandwich. Cold salad, hot muffins. And for a spectacular dessert, it is very easy to llambe ba nanas as you will see when you read further. If we're con fused about whether to keep it cool or to turn on the heat, it's a sign of the times. Keep It Cool Broth on Rocks . Beef broth on the rocks continues in the food news. It It a thirst-quenching, salt-replenishing, tasty, rcuivifying beverage that contains energy-building proteins and no stimulants. . Put in a dozen or so cans of beef broth for handy ref erence. Place some ice cubes in tall glasses; then add the condensed beef broth, pouring It straight over the ice. . For flavor fillip, add a dust ing of cinnamon, cloves or nutmeg, slice of lemon or twist of lemon peel, sprinkling of minced parsley, dash of Wor cestershire, Tabasco or Angos tura. Serve in tall glasses, tumblers, mugs or paper cups. Soup Cooler Pictured For today's picture and for four generous servings, we combined in a saucepan and carefully blended one can (lOVi ounces) condensed cream nf chicken soup, one can (lO'j ounces) condensed cream of asparagus soup, two soup cans milk, one tablespoon chopped parsley, one - half teaspoon curry. Heat; stir now and then. Place in refrigerator for at least four hours. Serve in chilled bowls. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds for a change. Other Cool Combos , ered tongue, salami or other choice of delicatessen or can ned luncheon meats, slivered or diced. Slivers of any cold roast are ideal.

Set out an array of salad ingredients and let fam ily and friends choose their own combinations. A fine con versation piece because some will toss their salads and oth ers will carefully arrange. Some will dress up and sea son subtly just two or three Hems while others will toss In a bit of everything. Dressings offered might be traditional oil and vinegar in cruets with measuring spoon nearby along with a ready made tart French dressing, mayonnaise, dairy sour cream or family-favorite offerings. Greens at this season might include lettuce, chicory, ro maine, endive, watercress. Some like to add a few of the younger, more tender spinach leaves. Bowls might offer cooked shrimp, cheese slivers, sliv- Fruit Salad Toss-Up A fruit salad in addition to or in place of the chef's salad type is worthy of your sum mer consideration. Arr a n g e your handsomest platter or biggest bowl with heaps of pineapple wedges, banana slices, oranges andor grape fruit sections; avocados or peach slices that have been dipped in lemon juice to pre vent discoloration. C a n t a- loupe balls or cubes, apricot halves and of course straw berries are further entice ments. For fruit we suggest french dressing, a combination of mayonnaise and dairy sour cream or this honey-wine vinegar dressing; Measure one-half cup salad oil, one fourth cup honey, one-quarter cup wine vinegar, one teaspoon dry muslard, one teaspoon salt and two tea spoons paprika in a quart jar with a tight cover. Shake well to blend before each using. Keeps well without refriger ation. Recipe makes enough for six servings. Same Strategy With Sandwiches Use the to-cach-his-own strategy for sandwiches also. Summer meal planners whe ther preparing for guests or setting out a simple family repast will rate cheers by this simple bit of planning. Hungry persons serve them selves and saunter about the house, yard, patio, terrace, poolside or whatever, seek ing solitude or companionship according to mood. Paper paraphernalia, a foregone con clusion. Plates, bowls, napkins. Bread assorlmcnt is easily arrived at with today's sliced breads ready and waiting by the dozen. Choose French or Italian bread if you're mak ing garlic bread. Be sure to always have some of the indis pensable rye or pumpernickle. Meat might include cold roast, slices of baked ham, any of the vast array of del icatessen culrt cuts or of the equally intriguing array ot canned meat specialties. When you select cheese for a sandwich tray, he sure to include sonic of bolh strong and mild flavor and sliced or sliccablc since it's sandwich es you're making. You'll need softened butter, mayonnaise or other creamy salad dressing, mustard, may be horseradish. Dill pickles are a must. Other relishes such as loose lettuce leaves, green onions, radishes and celery give further pleasure. Banana Flambe More people are flaming food at the table this yar than ever before. The flame Parental Example Given Blame forChildren Smoking By LOUIS CASSELS Washington - HOT - Parents J't Ihaip .V,il4.aM 10 smoKe nao oeiier give up the habit themselves. This stern and widely-unwelcome advice comes from the American Cancer Society. More accurately, it stands out in the findings of a survey conducted by the society among high school students. The survey showed that millions of teenagers are culti vating the cigarette habit, de spite all of the medical warn ings of recent years that it may contribute to lung cancer or heart disease. One boy out of five begins smoking by the time he's in the ninth grade. By the senior year of high school, 44 per cent of the boys are smoking. Girls are slightly less likely to smoke, but 29 per cent of them are lighting up gaspers before they re out of high school. One Third Smoke Regularly Taking all grades and both sexes into account, approxi mately one-third of our high school youngsters are regular cigarette smokers. Why do they dot it? This question especially interested Dr. Daniel Horn, a Cancer So ciety scientist who helped to make one of the pioneering studies linking smoking to lung cancer. Dr. Horn couid understand how adults, hooked to the habit, might find endless ex cuses for not breaking it. But he was appalled by the sight of so many youngsters delib erately developing the same hazardous addiction. Through carefully constructed ques tions which were asked of all the young people in the sur vey, he sought to determine what motivated them to smoke. The findings can only be disquieting to any parent who has clung to the notion that he can warn his children off cig arettes, while continuing to use them himself. The "most imporant" single n f 1 u e n c e in oetcrmining ! or. What they add up to. says whether a youngster smokes Dr. Horn found, is "whether or not his parents smoke." In statistical terms, a youth is twice as likely to begin smoking in high school if both his parents smoke than he is if neither parent smokes. Depends on Example "What is most revealing," says Dr. Horn, "is that if one or both parents have given up smoking, the rate of student smoking drops down to about the same level as among chil dren whose parents have never smoked." There are a lot more fig ures of the same general ten- Dr Horn, is that "children 9 smoking is largely dependent on parental example." Dr. Horn hopes that this finding may serve as "a pow erful tool to the modification of adult smoking behavior." "Quite apart from the ef fects of smoking on the health of adults," he says, "the fact that parental smoking is an important factor in teen-age smoking poses to each parent the question: 'Do I want my children to smoke".'" He suspects that some par ents, who wouldn't give up cigarettes for their own health's sake, may do so for their, children's sake. CHILLED SOUP-Ilcre are three foods of distinction for of fering family and friends on a summer mid-day or early evening. A chilled soup for serving In tall glasses combines two cream soups with sprightly seasonings. A banana flambe and blueberry muffins complete the picture. where your foods editor dined recently. 6 to 8 firm bananas Lemon juice ' cup butter V cup orange juice 2 tablespoons brown sugar 1 tablespoon grated orange rind 2 peaches, peeled and sliced 1 a cup dark rum Peel bananas; brush with lemon juice. Lightly brown in butter. Combine orange juice with brown sugar and orange rind; pour over banan as. Add peach slices if de sired; cook a few minutes to heat sauce. Just before serving, warm the rum (this is important) and pour over all; ignite the rum and serve flaming. A banana per serv ing. Blueberry Muffins Whether you make your own or use a muffin mix, all comers will rave about your blueberry muffins. To make from scratch, follow recipe below then fold in one cup of "floured" blueberries with the last few stirs of the bat ter. Same with a muffin mix. 2 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking powder i teaspoon salt 4 tablespoons sugar 1 egg 1 cup milk 4 tablespoons melted butter. Sift flour, measure and re sift with baking powder, salt and sugar three times, the last time into a mixing bowl. In another bowl, beat egg thoroughly; add milk and melted butter. Pour these liquid ingredients all at once into the dry ones. Stir quick ly until flour is just damp ened, then give four or five more quick stirs. Batter should not be smooth but a little lumpy. Fold in floured blueberries with the last few stirs of the batter. Dip batter quickly into muffin pans fill ing them about two-thirds full. Bake in moderately hot oven, 425 degrees for about 20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve immediately. Radiation Not Now Dangerous To Man; Great Care Needed By DELOS SMITH UPI Science Editor New York - lUPli - In the opinion of the scientist most deeply involved in protecting the public from radiation dangers, including fall-out, the present overall situation "is probably not very bad nor is it likely In become very bad in the lifetime of most of us." Dr. Lauriston S. Taylor, chairman of the National Committee on Radiation Pro tection and Measurements, re frained from being most posi tive because science cannot say at the present lime how much radiation people can accumulate without harm. In short, it is an extremely in volved subject. For instance, there Is "back ground" radiation which peo ple have been absorbing and which surely has not been harmful since people have prospered and multiplied abundantly. This romcs from ! cosmic rays and from radio- is blue and dances madly bul j active minerals embedded in ever so briefly over the cho- j almost all soils, sen specially.

Inevitably and from their beginning people have consumed radioactive sub slanccs in food and drink which are deposited in their bodies and radiate them for the length of their radioactive lives. L'y- A ,1 H Ihl'IT n BIT X-raVt fe winch are usrd for medical purposes and those used in the industry, principally for testing the Inlerior integrity of mrlal castings. He estimated that natural background radiation ac counts for roughly (1(1 per cent of the radiation absorbed by the average person. Medical X-rays account for some :,0 per cent which traves only four per cent fur "fall - out" it becomes "rather academic for the immediate future" to assign quotas to the remain ing four per cent. But he was by no means taking a negative position. Indeed he said, "we have a deep moral responsibility to make certain that the radia tion problem does not become a critical one for those that follow us. "We are thus Inescapably compelled to consider, and consider carefully, the ques tion of the long-range uses of all radiation sources what ever, to be certain, first that any level we set is not serious ly exceeded, and secondly, to be certain that no one source causes us to use up our ex posure allowance at the ex pense of other uses which may in fact be more essential to our over-all health and well-being." Olson-Lawyer High Bidder for Timber Olson-Lawyer Lumber. Inc., Medford. was high bidder thix week for 8,040,000 board feet of national forest timber in the Abbott Prairie area, Prospect Ranger district. Rogue River National forest. Forest Supervisor C. E. Brown reported the high bid was SR1.0SO. This compares with the forest service ap praised price of $80,028, an increase of 35 per cenl. Next high bidder in the oral auction for the timber was J L. Spencer of Pros pect. Other bidder was Fir Ply. Inc. The timber consisted of 5, (ilin.OOl) hoard fret of Douglas Fir, bid in at $10 per thousand feet, 880.000 board feet, of su gar pine and ponderosa pine, bid in at $20.50 per thousand board feet. 1.500.000 board fret of white fir and other spe cies, bid in at $4 30 per thou sand board feel. and all other "man-made ra di.ition." such as from radium Alaskan Oil Ranked waicn ana ciock oihis ana 1 v receivers. "It is nol difficult In under stand why authorities re sponsible for radiation control may find themselves thinking about ihe apportionment of radiation uses or the assign ment of quotas for different rlasscs of radiation use," he said.

"Medical exposure cannot tic as'-iisiu'd a quota, cither." he saui "In spite of causing up to about .id per cent of man s exposure, its benefits so far outweigh Ihe concurrent risks, if any. that it must be applied as required " Thin, 19 Among Producers New York-a?r -Alaska Is rapidly becoming an impor tant oil producing state.
