MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON Bloodmobile Will Be in Medford Two Days During Week Red Cross officials hnv an. i tu- THURSDAY. AUGUST , IMS Red Cross officials have an. nounced that the Bloodmo- Bile will visit Medford on two days next week. It will be at the Chapter house, 60 Hawthorne ave., Monday, Aug. 12, from 2 to 6 p.m., and again Tuesday, Aug. 13, from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. Kennedy Baby Has Breathing Difficulty Boston - IUPI) - The son born Wednesday to President and Mrs. Kennedy was suffering from what doctors described as idiopathic respiratory dis ease syndrome. In layman's language this means that the infant is having trouble breathing because of a film on the lungs. Officials said this ailment often occurs in premature babies delivered by Caesarean section. The goal for next week's visit will be 350 pints of blood. Blood collections fell far below normal during the first two visits of the Bloodmobile to Jackson county this year. Although the quota was not met in June, officials noted a definite increase in first time donors during the visit and are confident that residents will turn out to support the program again this month. Ef forts to activate the local pro gram and encourage new donors have continued throughout the intervening period, officials said. Shortage of Blood There has been an extreme shortage of blood throughout the state this summer. This is attributed to the increased number of accidents resulting from overcrowded highways and the fact that many resi dents are away from home on vacation and unable to do nate as usual. An exceptional ly large number of walking donors have had to be called as a result of this situation.

This summer visit of the bloodmobile to Medford has been planned with accent on convenience for shoppers and office and shop workers. In fact, it is not necessary for shoppers and people working downtown to make advance appointments, Red Cross of ficials said. They can just walk into the chapter house Monday or Tuesday and a full staff of Red Cross specialists will be on hand to take care of them.

Travel in Sweden Widens Waistline D 7 By GAY PAULEY UPI Women'i Editor Stockholm, Sweden - (UPD -Travel broadens perspective, and also thickens the waist line. But, both feasting for the eyes and for the stomach be long to tourism, and as I round out a trip through three Scandinavian countries the conclusion is: digest as many of the sights and the varieties of foods as you can.

We were 16 women report ers from the United States, Canada, Brazil, Japan and western European countries doing a "top of Europe" tour as guests of Scandinavian Air- ' lines System, and the Tourists Associations of the three coun tries. The smorgasbord custom of serving yourself from assnrtori . dishes arranged on a huge cen tral taoie in a restaurant has been exported to the United States. But some of us Amer icans haven't learned there is a correct sequence to making a pig of yourself. Start With Herring Required starter: herring (sill), always eaten first. It comes pickled in a dozen ways. The first new potatoes of the summer are small boiled, unseasoned except for a sprinkling of parsley, and served with the herring. Boiled potatoes are not con fined to smorgasbord. We've eaten them passed around the table, boarding use fashion, with fish, roast lamb, the famed Swedish meal, balls, reindeer meat (there's plenty of it in this part of the world), fresh salmon deep-fat fried like codfish cakes, and salmon served cold with hot scram bled eggs and dill (served on almost everything). But back to smorgasbord. After herring return to the central table lor a refill. The next sequence includes salmon and eel, smoked and jellied, shrimps, prawns and small crayfish (in season), which you peel yourself. Now you re ready for a third trip for the cold meat courses - boiled ham, liver pate, smoker reindeer meat. Dip also on this visit into as sorted salads- lettuce and cucumbers sliced paper thin and marinated in oil and vinegar is a favorite - and into vegetable side dishes, many also marinated. Hot Diihet Follow If you can still walk, work your way back to load a fresh plate with hot dishes of an chovies or herring au gratin, filled omelets, meat balls, whole fried onions, small sausages fried, kidney in mushroom sauce. Frequently these are just the hors d'oeuvres, with the "main" course yet to come -more than likely one of the infinite varieties of fish, for this is fish country where the halibut, cod, salmon and flounder are every-day fare. You're getting toward the end of the meal now, with only the cheese, bread and dessert to come. The heartier smorgasbords offer at least half a dozen cheeses, as many varieties of bread. All this is washed down with white and red wines, or beer and schnapps, a potent brandy with an herb flavor. Dessert at this time of the year is fairly light-fresh culti vated or wild strawberries. Light, that is, if you pass up the great bowls of whipped cream waiters bring to tne table. Farmer Far. At a country inn on the out skirts of Oslo, we dined on Norwegian farmer fare served on festive occasions. This con sisted of the flatbread, an other bread resembling the Mexican tortilla in texture made with wheat flour, pota toes and milk or cream (lefse), cured reindeer meat, and a cured mutton sausage (feng- lor) that looked like Italian salami. Huge bowls of sour cream (romme graut) stirred to a froth, sprinkled with cinna mon and sugar, were passed to go with these. It was as well I'd left the calorie counter at home. As I said, the accent is on fish, but there were cnateau briand in Denmark, mutton and cabbage stew in Norway, meat balls and porK aum Dlincs served floating in melt ed butter in Sweden. In Hammerfest, Norway, a seaport of 7,000 which calls itself Europes nortnernmosi city, we caught our own supper-cod, abundant in the fjords. The hotej chef broiled it for us. At the Saltstraumen tourist chalet, a one hour drive from Bodo, Norway, we ate a lean fish caled "shoemaker's sal mon" because it plentiful and cheap. It was served with, you gucsed it, sour cream and flat bread. Framed and hanging in the lobby of the chalet was this tribute to a mainstay of the Scandinavian economy and diet. "Lord, suffer me to catch a fish so large, that even I when speaking of it afterwards, shall have no need to lie."
