' ATTAINED ATTRIBUTES-Any salad which originated in a
southern California restaurant as far as we know, has travel
ed far and attained many attributes because of its versatility.
We make the marinade with corn oil as we reflect on the
'marvels of golden corn products available in today's markets.

Corn Makes Sweet Eating
As Markets Feature Variety
Ordinarily, we'd be talking
"about golden corn and its
' myriad products in late sum
mer when its rich harvest is
; In full swing. A recent stroll
;through local markets how
"ever revealed a super abun
'dance of canned corn, corn
-syrup, corn oil for cooking
-and for salad making along
"with other corn specialties.
'- Four million American
farms are annually plan' i
to the most beautiful and
luxuriant of all grain grasses
and the most abundant -:glorious
corn! It plays a ma
jor role in the daily diet, good
health and economy of the
.nation.
: Concern about corn has
been going on as far back
'.as the mind of man has been
.recording his mental proc
esses. Thanks to modern sci
ence, corn not only makes
sweet eating "as is" but it
goes into hundreds of proc
essed products for human
use, is fed to livestock in
countless ways and has hun
dreds of Industrial uses un
dreamed of until recent times
when American ingenuity and
resourcefulness got busy with
its possibilities.
Cooking - Salad Oil
Today we touch briefly on
"corn oil which has been re
fined to the nth degree as a
cooking and salad oil. Intro
duced to consumers in 1911,
it has assumed a major role
in cooking, in baking as a
"melted shortening", and In
the making of dressings for
salads without whuh no wet
em dav would be complete.
Available mostly glassed
but in cans in the larger sizes,
corn oil comes in pints,
quarts, Vi quarts and gallon
size with quarts being far
and away the most popular.
It is abundant which mea. s
that it is a good buy - is
often "specialed."
Any Bean Salad Enhanced
With Corn Oil Dressing
First it was the "Three
Bean Salad" which incorpo-
rated white beans of the lima,
earbanzo and chick pea type,
together with red kidney
beans and cut green beans -for
color, flavor and texture
interest. Each was marinaded
separately in a salad dress
ing, then combined at serv
ing time. When planning a
picnic or other mass feeding
operation, you might multiply
this recipe by three for guar
anteed iood results.
T o d a y's versatile "Any
Bean Salad" suggests that you
can use a can of any favored
white, red or green beans,
marinate them with this corn
oil dressing. For further in
terest, you might toss in a
few sliced radishes, thinly
sliced zucchini squash or
thinly sliced fresh mushrooms
which are also plentiful

Corn Syrup Enlivens -Nut
Drop Cookies
Corn, our excitement of the
day, is converted into a non-
crystallizing syrup known
generally as corn syrup which
goes on waffles, pancakes,
French toast, muffins; is used
in main dishes such as glazed
sweet potatoes. lt enjoys great
popularity in fruit whips,
puddings, dessert sauces and
here adds nutrition and flavor
to our favorite recipe for nut
drop cookies.
Because of distinctive fla
vors of corn syrups, many
homemakers keep both the
light and dark varieties on
the pantry shelf for frequent
use. They are interchangeable
in this recipe and many oth
ers. Here too we use liquid
shortening, corn oil. Recipe

United Press International
San Francisco - (UPU - John
A. T. Galvin, a working news
paperman who took time out
to make $150 million in a
mining venture, brought back
an air of the fabulous 1800s
when he came to California
from Australia, China and
Malaya. And then he was off
to Ireland, leaving behind be
wildered friends and beleag
uered attorneys.
Galvin owns ranches the
length of California, from the
Oregon line to Santa Barbara.
All now are under attach
ment by the federal govern
ment for income tax claims
of $21,546,898, the largest do
mestic assessment ever levied.
Galvin, his shy Irish wife
Eileen and five children came
to California in 1952 and es
tablished themselves in Wood
side, an exclusive area south
of San Francisco and a center
of the city's social life.
Impact Immediate
Here the impact of $150
million was immediate, pro
found and varied.
The society editor of the
San Francisco Examiner was
to write later in a front-page
story:
"Society will long be talk
ing about the Australian-born
multi-millionaire, now in Ire
land, who came to San Fran
cisco 100 years too late.
Famed Biochemist
Cornish, 59, Dies
Berkeley, Calif. (UPD Dr.
Robert Cornish, 59, a bio
chemist whose efforts to res
urrect an executed murderer
16 years ago made him the
center of a medical, legal and
moral muror, died Wednes
day. Cornish attracted national
attention in the 1930s when
he was able to restore dead
dogs to life in experiments at
his University of California
laboratory.
He died at Merrick hospital
following a heart attack.
His work made him the tar
get of an antivlvisectionist
protest which caused his re
moval from the university
where he had set a brilliant
array of academic records.
He was, at the age of 22,
the youngest person to re
ceive a doctorate from the
university. Four years earlier,
in 1922, he was graduated at
the age of 18, at that time
the youngest graduate and the
youngest member of the Phi
Beta Kappa honorary society.
Dog Lived 18 Months
In his experiments with
dogs, he would kill the ani
mals with nitrogen gas and
then, about five minutes later,
inject a solution composed of
blood, heparin and adrenalin.
One dog named Lazrus IV
lost his sight but seemed oth
erwise unaffected by his five-
minute "death. " Lazrus lived
way with it, is to make a
Southern Corn Pudding like
this for 6 fine servings.
1 1-pound can cream style
corn
3 eggs
2 tablespoons melted butter
2 cups warm milk
Wt teaspoons salt
i4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons finely chop
ped onion.
Combine corn, well beaten
eggs and the remaining in
gredients. Mix well and put
in a greased casserole. Set in
a shallow pan of warm water
and bake in a moderate oven,
350 degrees, about one hour
and 15 minutes or until an in
serted knife blade comes out
clean.
Sipping Soups
Can Bt Show-Offs
Everyone likes to show off
-just a little bit. Why not put
this ego to work in such sim
ple ways as these:
Tomato Twist. Place two
10'4-ounce cans condensed
cans condensed tomato soup
in refrigerator for a few
hours. Combine with two cups
cold water, one-half cup 1cm-on-llme
soda. Serve in chilled
glasses with twist of lemon
rind. Six servings.
Pep Cocktail. Combine two
10'4-ounce cans condensed
beef broth with one soup can
tomato or vegetable juice;
pour over ice cubes. Six serv
ings. ,
Herbed Vegetable Juice. In
pint jar or bowl, combine one
half teaspoon ground oregano
and one tablespoon hot wa
ter; let stand for several min
ues to extract flavor. Add 12
ounce can of V-8 vegetable
juices. Chill. Three servings.
Chived Beef Broth. In sauce
pan, combine one lO'-ounce
can condensed beef broth, one
soup can water and one table
spoon chopped chives. Heal;
simmer a few minutes. Gar
nish each serving with whip
ped sweet or dairy sour
cream.
'He belongs to the era of
the bonanza kings and the
get-rich-quick diamonds in the
rough who spent their for
tunes building monstrous
houses on Nob Hill and buy
ing jewels for their wives and
fine horses for their daugh
ters. "Eileen (Pat) Gavin, his
slender, shy Irish wife, has
a necklace of diamonds as
large as almonds. 'She hates
it,' a friend of the Galvins
told us. 'But he is so proud
of that necklace.'
"A Woodside matron said:
'The Galvins simply weren't
socially acceptable. He tried
too hard. We don't like people
who go throwing their money
about.' "
Another resident of Wood
side, however, referred to Gal
vin as "the most generous
man I ever knew." He cited
Galvin's large contributions
to church and charity, a free
ballet school for the neigh
borhood youngsters in the
Galvin mansion, and free trips
to Europe for friends of the
Galvin children including Ma
rina Romanov, daughter of
Prince and Princess Vasili
Romanov.
Move to Ranch
Perhaps because of this
mixed' reception, the Galvins
left Woodside and established
themselves at the Rancho San
Fernando Rey in the Santa
Ynez valley, close to Santa
another 18 months before he
died of pneumonia.
Cornish, a Roman Catholic,
made several efforts to get
permission to try his experi
ments on condemned men, but
was repeatedly turned down.
He appealed to the wardens
of state prisons in Colorado
and Nevada, where convicts
were executed in the gas
chamber, but his proposals
were rejected vehemently.
Church leaders debated the
morality of his experiments.
In 1947 he appealed to Gov.
Earl Warren for permission
to attempt to resurrect the re
mains of Thomas H. McMon-
igle, 31, a sex slayer. McMon
igle had consented to the ex
periment "in the interest of
science."
Request Was Denied
But Cornish's request was
denied after being shunted
through several state offices,
none of which found avail
able authority for a ruling on
attempted resurrection of a
state ward.
Cornish's theories drew the
scoffs of doctors throughout
the country as well as the
objections of organizations
such as the Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Ani
mals.
A phychiatrist at Johns
Hopkins university said Laz
rus IV, the dog which was
brought back to life, was sim
ply a corpse mechanically re
acting to stimuli.
After his unsuccessful at
tempts to try his experiments
on convicts, Cornish, a bach
elor, moved to a dilapidated
tin shack in Berkeley and
turned to more practical proj
ects. He marketed a dentifrice
of his own formula, called Dr.
Cornish's tooth powder, and
made a steam-resistant paint
for turkish baths. Later he
dealt in war surplus goods.
Chemist John Finn, a friend
and associate of Cornish, said
Wednesday, "He not only an
ticipated the Russians in the
resurrection of animals but
probably was the first to show
that death is not necessarily
provable by a stethoscope."
Grounded Cargo
Ship Floats Free
Boston - (UPD - A 467-foot
Greek cargo ship floated free
In high tides Thursday about
four hours after it ran
aground in 12 feet of muddy
water In Boston Harbor.
The Nymphe tore loose
from the Deer Island flats
near Logan International Air
port just as a tug from the
Boston Tow Boat Co. arrived
on the scene to help pull it
free.
Earlier the skipper of the
boat had refused assistance
from the tugs.
It was not known how
many persons were aboard
the craft.
A spokesman aboard the
craft reported It was in dan
ger of sinking shortly after it
ran aground. But the Coast
Guard said the report was
false and that the spokesman
had "apparently panicked."

AGAIN BUYING ESTATES - John A. T. Galvin,. multimil
lionaire who allegedly owes the U.S. government some $21,
546,898 in back income tax, is reportedly again buying estates,
this time in Ireland. Galvin left the country abruptly last
summer when the first hint of his tax trouble developed, (UPI)

the city by high San Marcos
Pass.
This beautiful Spanish
rancho of 35,000 acres was
purchased for approximately
$1,250,000. The Galvin fam
ily immediately began exten
sive additions, including a
modern school building for
the children of ranch employ

The U.S. Savings Bond you give to a loved one
carries two important messages with it.
First it says that here's a gift that will, grow in
value and some day go toward college tuition or a

future.
Even more important, It says to a grandchild or
niece: Here's a gift that makes you a saver. That

sometimes two clubs at once,
Usually among the visiting
clubs was the Los Altos Hunt,
which Galvin had helped or
ganize when he lived in Wood
side. Here this writer cam e to
know John A. T. Galvin as a
quiet man, not averse to a
little good-humored boasting
in low key of his colorful life
including his work for the
United Press bureau in Hong
Kong. But he never referred
to his wealth or his war serv
ice with the British Ministry
of Information.
He was an ardent church
man, : abstemious but intent
upon seeing to it that all his
guests enjoyed themselves. He
appeared to enjoy cocktail
gatherings by concentrating
on the pleasure of his guests.
In the lavish hunt club af
fairs, which became a New
Year's day classic, his trim
wife and Trish were usually
in the forefront of the riders,
but the host, in rough clothes,
bumped across country In a
radio-equipped land rover.
Buys Second Ranch
Galvin, loving good horses
and wide lands, bought anoth
er 75,000-acre ranch in north
ern California for $5 million,
and a large cattle ranch be
tween Sonoma and Petaluma
with his brother-in-law, Dr.
Robert Lawson.
By midsummer of last year,

In July the Galvin family
appeared in Dublin and went
into self-imposed secrecy at
the Hotel Shelbourne. The
staff has been instructed not
to give out any information
on their day-to-day activities,
nor relay telephone calls from
a curious press. The family,
noted for its outgiving and
friendly attitude, now takes
most of their meals in their
suite. Callers are mainly of
the horsey set.
Buys Up Estates
Currently, however, real
estate records indicate that
John A. T. Galvin, the former
Hobart newsboy, is again buy
ing estates in the grand man
ner. First acquisition was an old
styled mansion, Loughlins
town House in County Dublin,
bought by Galvin with its 166
acres for $444,000. The house
is now being reconstructed
and the family is about ready
to move in.
Next, 300 more acres were
acquired in Sandyford for a
total of $495,000.
enemies of freedom grow tougher and nor de
termined every day.
Few other gifts accomplish as much as Savings
Bonds. Why not start giving them today? (If
you're a grandfather several times, you'll probably
be most interested in the ?25 variety which sells
for $18.75 at any bank.)

, Meantime, between 15 and
20 show horses have arrived
for the Galvins, most of them
presumably from the Rancho
San Fernando Rey. They are
stabled on the estate of a
friend in County Dublin.
Irish rumor has it that Gal
vin is now building a private
show jumping area in the
Sandyford area, with luxury
villas in the American style
to house visiting show jump
ing teams from the United
States and other countries.
None of the Galvins will com

Meantime in San Francisco,
New York and Washington,
Galvin's financial counselors
and tax attorneys are exam
ining his situation with the
federal authorities, seeking
ways and means to get the
tax liens lifted against his
birony in California.
If this cannot be done by
negotiation, the matter must
be taken to the tax court be
fore the 150-day deadline for
appealing expires in May,
After the tax court, Galvin
has as an available alterna

peals. Eventually the Su

States may be called upon to
determine whether or not the
