Advantages Noted In Having Freezer In a survey, homemakers who owned modern freezing space, such as is found in either 1963 refrigerator-freezers or separate freezers, listed the following advantages of modern frozen foods: -Food p r e s e r vation by freezing requires only half as much time as canning. -Time and energy are saved by fewer shopping trips. -Foods can be cooked and frozen when time is available. -With both fresh and cook ed frozen foods on hand, meals can be prepared quick ly and easily. -Money can be saved by buying foods in quantities, taking advantage of sales and low seasonal prices. -Food preparation costs and food wastes are reduced by wise use of plan-overs and left-overs. Blackmail Games Add Spice During Italian Parties Rome - OIPD - The "black mail game" is the latest craze in Italian society this year, and strangely enough, no one has yet murdered one of his partners. But many a friendship has been broken. The often unpleasantly re alistic game works like this: Each player can buy a certain number of counters, always smaller than the total number of participants. If there are six players, for instance, each HOME LEARNING Washington - IUIHI - An esti mated 3,500,000 Americans were home study students in 1962, near the total college and university enrollment of the United Stales. The Nation al Home Study council, which conducted the survey, said thts was an increase of 470, 000 or 40 per cent more than in 1960 when the last survey was conducted. FEMININE CUE New York-(UPIi-StilI anoth er male stronghold, the bil liard parlor, is feeling the feminine influence, says a trade publication. Progressive Grocer reports that the tra ditional green table tops are being superseded by blue, beige, gold or orange. Some billiard parlors also provide soft background music, wall-to-wall carpeting and gaily colored pastel walls. Gift Corner for FreezerSuggested For Homemakers Many families foster the tradition of speeding depart ing guests with some gift to remind them of the bounty of the home they have visited. In season, it may be fruit or vegetables, from the gar den, or a bouquet of flowers. Out-of-season, many home makers rely on their freezers -either a separate one or part of a refrigerator-freezer to supply a treasured dish as the gift. Here's how your freezer will do the trick for you and give you some fun at the same time. When you have some spare time you can prepare lea rings, homemade rolls, special loaves of nut bread and a wide variety of other special foods. Just wrap them for freezing and store in your freezer. That's one place that will keep what you baked as fresh as the day you made them. Devoted to Gifts If you devote one section of your freezer for these gifts, you can delay the wrapping until you're ready to give it away. But if you spread the packages throughout the gen eral food area of your freezer, it's best to wrap the packages first so they can be easily identified. The variety of gifts that you can prepare in advance is end less. Cookies, cakes and can dy are only a few. An espe cially nice gift is your favorite fruit pie frozen In a new plas tic container and tied with gay ribbon. This gift corner in your freezer will give you a gen erous supply of personalized rememberances for any occa sion, wrapped and ready to give at a moment's notice. can buy only four chips. men they draw lots to de cide who is to be the first "blackmail victim" and each o" the others writes him a pay or I'll tell everyone that " note. The victim receives the notes one by one and must decide each time if he should buy the right of tearing it up or allow the author to read it aloud. Since he hasn't enough counters to pay all of the blackmailers, and since he doesn't know what the next notes will say, the decision Us often an agonizing one. Are Gentlemen Of course, the "blackmail ers could choose to be gen tlemen - like and say nothing too embarrissing - but if they do they will be short of chips when it is their turn to play the victim. There is no rule that the blackmailers' statements must be true, but of course the truer the more effective. When the first victim has received all messages, lots are drawn for the second and so en. When all have played the victim once, the second round starts in the same order and anyone left short of counters can get new ones but at double the original price. Also fashionable is another, somewhat more innocent game called "the auction." The auctioneer offers for sale a quality of one of the players (Joe s intelligence, Mary's beauty) or such things as a kiss, a necktie, and so on. Each of the players writes his bid on a piece of paper. The bids are mixed and the auctioneer must guess who made each bid - who could have estimated Jim's singing abilities at five cents, or Bill's jokes at $1,000. The auction in itself is strictly fictional, but the auc tioneer wins a chip whenever he guesses right and loses one if he guesses wrong. A game based on the same principle is "the murder." Here, one of the players is "murdered" and everyone, in cluding the victim, writes the name of whoever he considers the likely murderer and his motive. The "judge" must guess the author of each theory. The BIGGEST FREEZER VALUE! ' -' " ! c? m Gives you extra features at no extra cost! Holds 452 pounds of food. 5-Year warranty on total appliance.

A na tional study done by research ers for one advertising agency reports that 81 per cent of all U.S. families will cook out B 3 this year. They will eat 1.3 billion meals outdoors, spend $100 million on cooking; equipment, and $750 million on food for outdoor meals. ' U.

The venerable dowagers are a pair of steam locomo tives rescued from the scrap pile and restored to operate on the 15-mile Arcade and Attica railroad. Built more than 40 years ago and still going strong, the two coal burners have been earning their keep hauling old-time coaches filled with railroad fans, picture-taking tourists and school children. The week end excursions, which began last year, have proved amazingly popular -and they have probably marie the Arcade and Attica the only railroad in the nation without enough rolling stock to handle passenger loads. The trips leave the line's depot on Main street here and meander up an unfenccd grass- covered right-of-way through rolling hills to the hamlet of Curriers. With un scheduled stops for photog rapy, or on some occasions to shoo cattle from thef tracks, the leisurely 14-mile round trip takes slightly over 90 minutes. 7S.000 Rida A and A President Richard Cartright has estimated that 75,000 passengers will make the trip this year. In fact, Carlwright is counl- ing on the appeal of his old-1 j time equipment to provide the j line's principal source of rev enue. Freight service, handled on weekdays with diesel locomo tives, has been declining steadily over the years due to truck competition. "If passenger business holds up the way it has been, we'll have the best year in our 80 ycar history," Carlwright said, adding v,ith a smile, "It just goes to show you thai modernization isn't always the only way to make more money." Sear Belts Required Through Legislation New York- H:PD -Twenty states and the District of Co lumbia have passed legisla tion requiring seat belts in new automobiles. Fifteen of the new seat bolt laws were passed during the 1963 legislative sessions. Six other similar acts are prnd- ing. The laws now in effect cover: 46 million of the na lion V 65 5 million cars.
