MONDAY, Vmi - Vidi By MARGARET SCHULER Borne - Rome In November is rich in autumn. The sun, alter wind and rain, pours -taj hriiliunrp in Drofuse abandon into diamond clear fountains, onto terra coua buildings, and people. Along either side of the boulevards, plane, and chestnut trees, turning yellow, now are gold; chrysanthemums glisten, face up to a calendar blue sky. Flowers in the st a 1 1 s, ulih sun wealth, are pristinely red, yellow, orange and wniic. rrun abundant with giant pears in neat rows, golden Delicious apples in pyramids, plump bursting persimmons and Lonoino in rlusters. all collect their hare ol Iree gold. Harbinger of fall, the chest nut man, has set up his bra zier for business, and is busily roasting his goodies. The little, blue-smocked fellow who sees to fallen leaves, pushes, with his old worn faggots, and col lects, to carry off in his cart. A lone tourist bus winds through traffic; a priest zooms down the tangled street on his motorcycle; a horse and carriage, self consciously oc cupied by an elderly couple, (maybe from Iowa) is heard amid the din of squeaks and squeals of tires as it clip clops, staccato-like, on the pavement. Two tall, harmon ious carabinicre lend glamour and more color to the picture, as they rhythmically, unhur riedly stroll down the avenue, long coat tails swaying, swords gleaming, and cockade hats in precise location on handsome heads. Priests Hurry Two other priests, scarlet clad, tear past. (Priests always give the impression of going somewhere fast). Two small boys together push little brother in a tram. A hair rais ing spectacle that is, to see them crossing a mad street, with baby jouncing precar iously, happily oblivious to the terrors of traffic. Now, siesta lime over, out sally the Romans themselves. It is parade hour and they come, more and more of them, until little narrow sidewalks are filled with them, moving, pressing together thickly and happily. Wider avenues and boulevards are equally as crowded. Children also participate. Inlpffrnl and iniDOl'tant Dar- ticipants. Mammas and pappas may be a bit dowdy and loo plump, but their olispring, never. Little boys are sartor ial perfection in tailored suits, short trousers and beau tifully polished shoes. Little girls are fashion plates, dolls, adorable in clothes of ex quisite laslc. And as for beauty, surely no children in the world arc as universally like Botticelli angels.

It is any wonder that the Italian male has such savior faire? These are shopping hours, looking-ln-window hours. The sun is shining and the Italians take the benign sun as their inalienable right. Windows with their care fully planned displays, cap ture a bit of brignmess too. In Rome, most shops are small. Dress material shops, besides the few large depart ment stores in Rome, are per haps the largest. And so their windows are continuous swirls and serpentines of ex citing silks, brocades, satins and laces, big rosettes of lus cious materials, gigantic puffs of color, artistic cascades of velvets. Many Tit Shops Next window may be jewels and goodies in gold. There are innumerable lie shops. Rome is known for its ties and Borsolino hats. But what about Borsolino hats? Who wears (hem, the famous hats? Not Romans, certainly. There is not a hat on hun dreds of black heads. Oc casionally one of the older boys protects his bald spot. That is all. Men carry um brellas, (quite unlike the American male who would rather be caught dead, than be seen with an umbrella). Window hat displays for women are rather few, and are for the most part for old er women. Shoe displays are many. Window after window of great varieties, artfully dis played on wire frames. But oh! So petile. Dress shops, boutique shops, featuring perhaps Just one "modella," deceptively simple and no price mentioned. If you like the style, you may have one made for, say two hundred dollars. Pastry and candy shops are perhaps the most eye-catching. They are symphonies of color, shape and arrangement. But it is the bookshops where lovers of books could well go beserk. So many of them there are, and so amply supplied with every type of reading material you can Imagine thai it frustrates. Un like the stales, where one au thor or one book Is featured with many copies piled about, here, there is never more than one author, or one book of an author in a window. Books Art Varitd Along side Steinbeck, for example, will be a French novel, a treatise on Chinese ceramics, a tome-like science book, a Russian political dis course, and many, many ex pensive looking books on art of every country and age. All of the British Penguins can be bought, a few American paper backs, but not with covers of nude ladies, or murderous titles. (If at all, those can be bought only al the corner kiosks which Americans fre quent). window shopping, al any time of year is a favorite pas time in Rome. One of the few outdoor sports in which they indulge. And, of course, tour- Until 9 p.m. . . .

Potpourri had tried in vain to find a telephone listed for the Gosnells, and today's note explains why Barbara Gosnell wrote: "We left Gold Hill November 16 to begin the winter muskrat trapping season on Tule lake. We will be here until April. We live in a 26-foot trailer house, and our Sains Valley home is rented. I've been going along with my husband since our son was married six years ago, which explains why we aren't listed in the telephone directory any more. We spend the greater pari of each summer at the mouth of the Rogue at Gold Beach and Wcdderburn, Ore., where my husband guides salmon fishing parties, and then return to Jackson county in early October." Mrs. Gosnell's first letlcr is about her favorite methods of cooking pheasant, quail, ducks, etc. It read: I jusl finished reading your Potpourri column about how your friend says pheasant, quail and ducks should be prepared. 1 have to disagree, especially on pheasant and quail. Perhaps you would be interested in how 1 prepare and cook them. Thirty-two years ago I married into a hunting family. Pheasant was always fried, quail too, same as domestic fry ers. First, the pheasant was water and then picked as any olher chicken, drawn and cut inlo serving pieces. The pheasant has a large breast so it is cut in four pieces, first the wishbone section is removed, then care fully cut along both sides of the breast (keel) bone with a sharp knife about half an inch deep to free that section of breast meal: a triangular section about three to four inches on all sides, half inch thick, depending on size of the pheasant. Peel these two pieces away. There Is left a good portion of meat on both sides of the bone. Cut away the tissue and thin bone left from peeling the other two sections off. This way, since the breast is such a large thick portion, you have four good portions instead of two, one quite small, the other too large. Salt and lightly pepper the pheasant pieces, roll in flour and brown in heavy skillet. Then remove from frying pan to a covered baking dish, add about half a cup of water, cover and bake at 325 degrees until "fork tender.'' Make gravy from the "yummy'' juices. That is our ver sion of really gourmet eating. We skin quail, draw and remove legs and back, together from breast. Prepare same as pheasant and fry. They cook done very quickly, regardless of age. Many limes I have one or two quail that I cook right along with the pheasant from skillet lo covered baking dish. Older ducks are very delicious stewed like a stewing hen. boned, the broth thickened, thin biscuits placed on top and baked with extra biscuits to eat out of hand. We call this dish "duck potpie." Serve fluffy mashed potatoes, a green salad and a light dessert. Very filling. Yours for good eating (calories too).
