Feeding the Family By ZOLA Food Northweit Applet Tk Autumn Spotlight Halloween haunted house holds will win parents praises with apples and apple snacks among the handouts as pint size witches and spooks, along with batches of bewitching babes and boy iriends from the high school crowd, prowl early on All Saints Eve. No longer is the treat con sumed on the premises. Trick is to tote the loot home while munching sundry goodies along the way. Parent collab orators now individually wrap the "take" in transpar ent plastic wrap, the better to display It so holdup artists can pick and choose. . Parents and health authori ties too, are known to favor this plastic wrap method for fairly obvious reasons. Saves wear and tear also on the car peting and on bedspreads where the young somehow manage to dump the loot bag for purposes of appraisal. Happy Solution Happy solution is to hae at hand a variety of apples, or anges, popcorn balls, the usual jellybeans, colored marshmal lows, small boxes of raisins, chocolate or orange donuts, candy bars or whatever else appeals. Wrap items in simple packets made from squares of plastic wrap with corners gathered in a rubber band, then flared. A tray piled high is a good Idea and when it's empty, the game is over at your house and the porch light goes off. Or maybe you were young once and would like to start all over. , Well, as we said in the be ginning, apples make mighty line munching. Cider from a pitcher into paper cups is a good idea for the thirsty, ones. Might give holdup artists a choice cider or a packet of goodies. An older member of the family can have fun pre siding at the cider pitcher or bowl. New Ways with Fruit California and Oregon grow some very fine apples but honesty indicates that we let the state of Washington take the bows as the country's leading apple producing area. New York's crop is about half that of Washington with Vir ginia and California vieing for third-fourth place. Oregon Is in eighth place with quan tity but unexcelled for qual ity. The Delicious and the Jon athans sparkle at this season. The Jonathan has been called the Halloween apple; is con sidered supreme for bobbing, for caram.elling and for Just plain snacking. Apple-Cat Salad. The Apple Cat salad pictured uses fresh apples ana cottage cheese with apple arranged to resem ble a cat's body. Core apple and cut in half. Lay one-half of apple on bed of cottage cheese arranged on crisp let tuce leaves for body of cat. Cut a round from remaining half of unpeeled apple for head of cat; place atop first half. Cut five narrow strips of apple, placing two on either side of head for cat's whiskers. Use remaining ap ple strip for cat's tail. Well, the children will think it's the cat's whiskers or does that ex pression belong to another era? Pass a French or fruit salad dressing. Molded Apple Salad. Dis solve one package orange flavored gelatin in one cup hot water and allow to cool until syrupy. Add 2 cups ap plesauce flavored to taste, one cup cottage cheese and one fourth cup puffed dark rais ins. Pour into individual molds and chill until firm. Turn out on crisp greens.

More Ways to Dress Up Autumn Vegetables Vegetables, both green and yellow, are important In daily diets throughout our lives. The inclusion of a wide vari ety of vegetables in the chil dren's diet from infancy will go a long way toward encour aging life-long enjoyment of whatever food Is set before the younger generation. Here are more ways with taste ap peal, eye appeal. Season a head of cooked cauliflower or shredded cook ed cabbage with a sprinkle of fine bread crumbs that have been browned in butter. Add a fine grating of any favored cheese for a change. Or sprin kle with finely chopped pars Icy and paprika on either side. Add finely chopped green pepper, minced onion and a dash of sugar to either scal loped or slewed tomatoes, fresh or canned. Place cooked green beans under broiler rack to catch meat drippings when broiling meat patties. Do the same with corn niblets when broil ing ham. Mash equal amounts of cooked, diced rutabaga and potatoes together with barely a touch of nutmeg along with plenty of butter. Or use dairy sour cream in place of but ter. Sprinkle green beans or wax beans (fresh, frozen or canned) with finely chopped toasted almonds or other nut meats, Fold cut-up grapefruit sections (canned or fresh) Into cooked spinach and add touch of any favored spice. Garnish french fried ba nanas with grated cheese and dash of paprika. To restore beet red color to borscht, grate a raw beet into soup a moment before serving; then garnish with chive-sprinkled dairy sour cream. Strew caraway seeds or poppy seeds, which are read ily avialable in herb and spice sections, over any dishes of the cabbage family. Poultry Stuffing A "rule of thumb" for poul stuffing is to allow one eight ounce package of prepared stuffing mix for two four pound chickens. Roasting two small-size chickens is faster, gives finer flavor, provides more stuffing, than the larger birds. Looks interesting too. 7 lo 11 P.H. - FRIDAY OCTOBER 26 WATCH FRIDAY'S PAPER FOR OUTSTANDING SALE VALUES! MA-S.

And it's cider time, too Russians Leading Nuclear Testing in Terms of Washington - IUPH - The So viet Union has now tested nu clear weapons totaling more than twice the power of all U.S. tests to date. The score in terms of mega tons (millions of tons of TNT) is roughly 30S for Russia to about 143 for the United States. The last official comparison was made Sept. 20 by Adlai E. Stevenson, U.S. ambassa dor to the United Nations. Mis figures then were 250 to 140. Unofficially 55 Megatons From Sept. 20 through Oct. 22 Russia has set off weapons at her Arctic proving ground unofficially estimated at 55 megatons. The largest weapon tested by the United Slates since Stevenson spoke was a "low megaton" device explod ed in the Pacific Oct. 18. In total test numbers, though not in power yield, the United Stales is far ahead of Russia. But while this coun try has been concentrating largely on small battlefield weapons, Russia has been specializing in city-destroying monsters. Of the first 21 tests in this year's Soviet series, 14 were equal to more than a megaton of power. The biggest, deto nated Aug. 5, was 30 mega tons. Several were "multi megaton" explosions. So far about 70 per cent of the Rus sian tests have been in the megaton range this year, com pared to about 50 per cent in 1961. Of the 31 U.S. tests in the Pacific this year only seven, or about 22 per cent, have been in the megaton range. None have been multi-mcga-gon. Power Total Exceeded In the 21 shots announced by this country from Aug. 5 SALE MEDFORD !T&Sfr Ml II,' (t wise parent who provides her arousing, taste tingling, crisp of hand, for putting into this applesauce and other delights Megatons through Oct. 22, the Russians exceeded the power total of nearly 50 Soviet tests in the fall of 1961. The official U.S. megaton figure for the Rus sian 1961 tests is 120. The un official estimate of the 1962 total so far is 135 megatons. Thus this year alone the Russians have come close to equalling the all-timo U.S. power total of 143 megatons. According to official an nouncements the United States staged 239 weapon tests from 1945 through Oct. 22 this year. This included 55 low yield shots in Nevada since resumption of testing in 1961 and 31 in the Pacific this year. Dixie Dedicates Nuclear Reactor Parr, S.C.-flJPD-Dixie's first privately owned nuclear re actor was dedicated Wednes day by the governors of three states and haled It as a sym bol of the industrial South. Operated by four regional power companies with the aid of the Atomic Energy Com mission, the $46 million facil ity will be used primarily for research. Govs. Terry Sanford of North Carolina, Albertis S. Harrison of Virginia and Ern est F. Hollings of South Caro lina attended the dedication. London - H'PD - An article on lung cancer in "Family Doctor" magazine said: "It would be a splendid thing if a doctor who smokes cigarettes before his patients, or a teacher before his pupils, was regarded in the same light as a clergyman who keeps a mistress." MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. Isolation Rule For Canton, N.Y. - (UPI) - The fall semester at St. Lawrence university here is in full swing and the "stagiaires" have scat tered to their homes through out the country. But their memory lingers on as the cam pus gets back to normal. The "stagiaires" are men and women who took part in Summer Institute for the Secondary School Teach ers of French, held at St. Lawrence for the past two years. Picture a tiny French vil lage transported from its na tive country to this location in upstate New York and then populated with about 60 in habitants who speak a mini mal amount of French, but who are not permitted to speak to anyone in English during the greater part of their stay; This can lead to complications, and does. Increases Proficiency The seven - week institute, sponsored by the U.S. Office of Education under the Na tional Defense Education act, aims to increase the secon dary school teachers' profi ciency in teaching French. Preference In selection for the institute is given applicants who show the greatest need for the type of training of fered. This means the St. Law rence participants do not speak French particularly well. Why "stagiaires?"

So, the participants become "stagiaires," or "per- sons at a stage." The logic of thic i 11-ibI thm NnVi nnn. ! sors summer institutes for teachers at four different lev els of ability. At St. Lawrence, the "stagiaires" are at the third stage from the top. At the beginning of the in stitute, the "stagiaires" are a small band of strangers, many isolated from their homes by distace and all from the campus community by the self-imposed ban on English. The isolation is intensified by their difficulty in commun icating with one another and with the faculty, many of whom are natives of France. Basio Learning One problem, embarrassing In a minor way, is the use of seemingly innocuous French words which, in France, carry different con notations than intended by Subscribers To report improper or non delivery of the Mail Tribune in Medford, phone 77V-1U1; Aah land call at 418 Bririne at., ?hone 4R2-3002: Montague and reka. phone 842-2-ll)H, before 6:45 p.m. daily and 10:30 a.m. Sundav.

For example, "fille" translates to "girl" but in France, a girl of vir tue. Some basic knowledge was picked up in i hurry in this area. On occasion, a "stagiaire" has desperately tried literal translation of idioms and found that "11 est un chat frais," although an accurate enough translation of "he is a cool cat." means nothing in French. Neither docs "our les oiscux," or "for the birds." Despite continuous oppor tunity to speak English to oth er summer residents of the campus, the "stagiaires" are commendably conscientious about their isolation in a Gal lic atmosphere. The non - English rule Is mercifully waived on one oc casion. Thai's when the "stagi aires," many of them away from husbands, wives and families for the first time, talk to them on the telephone. When it's all over, remark able progress has been made, perhaps best exemplified by the female "stagiaire" who, during the course of the in stitute, was surprised and de lighted to find herself first thinking and later dreaming in French. That reaction, be cause it's unconscious and demonstrates complete satura lion in the work at the insti tute, is the highest praise which can be given the partic ipant and the faculty, univer sity officials say. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 25. 1962 United Nations Day Observed The 17th anniversary of the founding of the United Na tions was observed yesterday in schools and by groups and individuals throughout Jack son county. A luncheon at North's Chuck Wagon which marked the anniversary was attended by Mayor John Snider, offi cers and members of the Jack son County chapter, Oregon United Nations association, judges, lawyers, candidates and other citizens Interested in the United Nations as a world-wide peace-keeping and philanthropic organization. Mayor Snider introduced Eric W. Allen Jr., managing editor of the Medford Mail Tribune, Ihe speaker. Allen read his editorial published in yesterday's Issue, "United Nations Day," which reviewed the progress of the UN and called for everyone to "work for a sense of common pur pose as the race of mankind, forgetting petty nationalistic jealousies." He pointed out that the United Nations pro vides a framework for such efforts. The luncheon was arranged by Mrs. Ronald Rtcketts, ap- pointed by the mayor as UN day chairman. She introduced the mayor. Mrs. Ricketts also presented Mayor Snider a figurine at Lunch which had been a gift to Mr. and Mrs. Ricketts from Pino Dutto, attorney from Med ford's sister city, Alba, Italy, who recently spent several weeks in southern Oregon. He was often a guest in the Rick etts' home during his stay. Mrs. Ricketts said she wish ed the mayor to have the fig urine as a gesture of armre- ciation for his civic leader ship. The luncheon menu Includ ed food specialties from var ious nations. The tone of the luncheon yesterday echoed the words of Charles W. Yost, deputy United Stales representative to the United Nations, who spoke to the American Associ ation for the United Nations last month in New York City. At one point he said "The UN is a democratic organiza tion which acts In the Western tradition by consent and con sensus, not by dictation and force, and that the solutions hammered out by democratic processes, even In a single country, are! rarely swift or unilateral." The Declaration of Inde pendence was actually adopt ed on July 2, not July 4, which was the day the docu ment was proclaimed to the world.
