Freezer Should Be Used Properly for Best Convenience While the 1063 refrigerator freezers and separata freezers are marvels of convenience and efficiency, some women lose much of the advantage of their freezer space by fail ing to use it properly. One thing is certain. The frozen food can be no better than its packaging. The rules for packaging are simple, but they must be observed, or the quality of the food frozen will be disappointing. Here is some advice on packaging that will help you realize the benefits built into the 1963 freezing units: Moiiture-Proof 1. Always choose cartons and wrappings that are moisture-proof and vapor-proof, easy to handle, seal and label. Materials should be flexible and strong enough to with stand handling at zero de grees. 2. Wrap all food tightly. "Freezer burn," which ap pears as frost or grayish white spots on frozen food, if caused by air pockets that are left between the products and the wrapping material. If containers are used, they should be filled to the recom mended mark - usually i inch from the top for solids, one inch from the top for liquids. 3. For convenience, each package should be labeled with the date of storage, kind of food and, when necessary, weight or quantity. At Peak ol Maturity 4. Use only table-ripe vege tables or fruits that are at the peak of maturity. 9. Fruit should be pack aged in meal-sized quantities, so there will be no left-oven. Defrosted frozen fruit loses its payability if left standing. 6. Fruits that are to be u d primarily for pics, jellies or preserves can be washed and frozen in dry packs with out sugar or syrup. Fruits can also be frozen in a dry sugar pack or In a syrup pack. 7. Meats should be wrapped immediately after cutting, to prevent loss of juice and fla vor. 8. When sheet material or plastic bags are used in pack aging, use a box or pan as a form until the wrapped prod uct is frozen solid. When the form is removed it leaves a regular - shaped and easily- stored package. 9. KeeD small fond pack ages in one large nylon hag. It makes them easier to find. SP Spurlino Runs Shortest Route Austin, Tex.-tUFD-Texas Pa rade magazine reports the smallest railroad reporting to the Interstate Commerce com mission is a two-fifths of a mile line running from El Paso to the center of the in ternational bridge between that border city and Juarez, Mexico. The El Paso Southern, own. ed by the Southern Pacific operates to the point where the tracks meet those of the ChlluialuiR Pacific railroad of Mexico. The line owns no rolling stock and rents loco motives. It does not operate on Sundays. Texans Now Claim Own Cut of Steak Austin, Tex.-WPIl-For Tex ans who have swallowed some of their pride along with the "Kansas City" and "New York" steaks they have eaten, now they have one of their own the "Texas cut steak.' Armor and company named the steak to represent some thing that has been true tor a Jong time that Texas feed lots handle much of Texas beef now, rather than sending cattle north and east for fattening. EDUCATION PAYS Auburn, Ala. - H'PD - Book learning pays. During his life time, the average college graduate earns $78,000 more than the student who attends college hut doesn't graduate, and $103,000 more than the average high school graduate. Learning to Use Freezer No Problem Learning how to use the freezing space in your 1963 refrigerator-freezer or sepa rate freezer is no problem. The basic "textbook" is the instruction book which was packed with the appliance. It contains hints on use and care as well as instructions for packaging food, data on stor age life, and an assortment of tested recipes. Most modern cook books also contain sections on home freezing. The U.S. department of agriculture and your own state college of agriculture have bulletins available on the subject. Finally, the home service staff of your local utility will be glad to make suggestions and answer questions. The freezing space in the 1963 refrigerator-freezers and separate freezers give today's home maker undreamed of convenience and flexibility in meal preparation. Among the freezer's advantages are few er shopping trips, and the op portunity to prepare dishes and even whole meals, days or weeks in advance. In addition there are. real savings opportunities when you buy seasonally-plentiful lower-cost foods and in large quantity purchases. Vegetables average 35 to 40 pounds to each cubic foot of freezer space.

J.-My husband is a regional sales manager for a large liquor company. By speaking to a fellow he used to work for, he placed our son in a fine job as assistant manager of a busy package store. Any young man would give his eye teeth for an open ing like that. But after only four months, Drew plans to pull out and with such a flimsy reason. Drew J., Jr.-I'd be better off where I'm viewed as just Drew or Mr. J., instead of "Drew J.'s kid" or "Junior." It was bad enough being com pared to my older brother who's a Ph.D-college professor-egghead, but now every day I'm told of the miracu lous deals my Dad pulled off. I'm sure the other employees resent my "pull," and I feel shadowed. The Council: It's not only the sins of the fathers which "visit" the children, Drew. It's the "wins," too. And you're not the only scion who's felt hamstrung by good fortune. Eager to be yourself, rather than a pale facsimile of The Great Man, you feel constrict ed among his old associates. You'd rather start at the bot tom and compete with your self, not with echoes and shadows of illustrious rela tions. . . Well, no matter where you work you'll be competing with someone with special "pull." Right now you're that someone. So what? A favored position can't last indefinitely. It of fers a head start, but the worker must follow through on sheer and honest ability. We believe you're hypersensi tive. References to your fa ther may not be meant per sonally so much as anecdot ally, along with other yarns and legends of the past. Work hard, carve your own niche in the business world, bring your personal imprint how ever modest to your proced ure. You'll not only succeed but you may also dig up a few fresh pointers for your proud papa.

Radar To Be Used To Study Stars Stanford, Calif.-ITD-A new radar astronomy facility is being established at Stanford university to learn more about space and the phenom ena that exist in it. One of the activities plan ned for the center is the new technique of "bistatic radar astronomy" in which scien tists try to bridge the gap between techniques using ground-based instruments and those using space probes to explore the solar system. "Bistatic" radar puts trans mitter and receiver at differ ent locations-a giant trans mitter on the ground, for in stance, and a small receiver in a spacecraft. Ordinary sys tems have both the transmit ter and receiver in the same place. The Stanford scientists say the "bistatic" method - which will be used in connection with a planned probe of Mars in late 1964-gives more de tailed information about the surface of the planet and characteristics of its atmos phere. The new center is a joint project of the university and Stanford Research institute, a privately operated organiza tion. Financial support comes mainly from the Air Force Cambridge Research labora tories and the National Aero nautics and Space administra- ONE DISH MEALS A complete meal can be brought to tha. table in the same dishes in which it was frozen and cooked, an innovation made possible by the use of double duty dishes. Parsley potatoes cooked and frozen in the quart-and-a-half saucepan (top), pork chops in the 10-in. all-purpose dish (cen. ter), and buttered peas in the one-quart saucepan are all brought straight from the freezer to the range to these speci ally designed cradles for serving at the table. . tion, with additional aid from the National Science founda tion and the Office of Naval research.
