Nutritionists emphasize this variety of meat often. Growing youngsters espe cially need liver, although it may not be one of (heir fa vorite meats. By varying the methods of preparation, they will surely come to the table more eagerly. Liver Bacon Fromage is a tasty liver variation with a topping of bacon and grated cheese. A touch of garlic salt is added to season. Reba Staggs, home econo mist, slates that liver is an excellent source of high qual ity protein. Vitamin A, ribo flavin, niacin, iron, phospho rus, and other essential vita mins and minerals. Such top food value at an economy price is reason enough for serving liver fre quently. And it's good eating, too! Liver and Bacon Fromage Four slices bacon; one pound beef liver, sliced one half inch thick; three table spoons flour; one-half tea spoon salt; one-eighth tea spoon garlic salt; one-eighth teaspoon pepper; one-fourth cup grated American cheese.

Another review said "Another favorile at the Carousel theater.

Began Early The singer-actor began his career in high school when he won a gold cup for Ihe best male actor in a radio play coolest which encom passed all of California. He appeared with the Oakland Light Opera company, was an apprentice at the Pasadena Playhouse for sj: months, doing both singe and televi sion shows and after a stint as a serviceman, played Creek Shakespearean roles with Ihe home John Carradine Shakespear ean Repertory company in Pasadena and Los Angeles.

After the program refresh ments were served from a holiday decorated tea table at which Mrs. R. Drew Lamb and Mrs. Faith McCullough presided. The day's book review was presented by Miss Gertrude Englc who chose Gabriel Heater's a u t o b i o g r a phy, "There's Good News Tonight." The book is Ihe self-portrait of a man who waged a con tinuous battle with his own consuming fear-a battle never suspected by the millions of listeners who heard the greet ing "There s good news to night." Mr. Heater tells of his childhood and adolescence in the New York home of Rus sian Jewish parents, immi grants to America, and of his years filled with inexplicable anxieties that set him apart as "different." Mathematics proved a stumbling block to high school graduation, al though his excellence in Eng lish opened the door to a newspaper job at the age of 16 years. It was this success in writing that led to his first radio broadcast in 1931. Radio Fame From unpaid and unspon sored news commentary Mr. Heater eventually rose lo international radio fame with an estimated evening audience of more than 20 million listeners and an annual salary of S100.000. In relating his strange success story the author gives full credit lo his wife, whose confidence and trust gave him courage to overcome de pression and fear. The selected subject given by Mrs. Lamb covered cur rent events and recent dis coveries in the field of medi cine. She also read excerpts from an article by Andre Maurois in which the visiting French professor discussed many of the common mis apprehensions of his country men regarding America and Americans, ideas gained large ly from Hollywood films and tourists.
