By JEANNE LESEM , NEW YORK (UP!) - There's1 more to an Eskimo diet than ; fish, seal, whale meat, and ,. blubber. But not much more. A s survival rations, Eski mo v i c t uals kept eight per sons alive for more than two weeks recently when their - plane made an Jr.nn. Lnem e m e r g ency landing near the Arctic circle in Canada. The pilot, Paul Garon, Quebec City, said he and his passengers lived on seal and whale meat from the plane's cargo and fish caught in the lake on which the plane landed. Theirs wasn't quite as well balanced a diet as Eskimos us ually maintain, according to a pamphlet prepared by students of the Shishmaref, Alaska, Day School from their mothers' recipes. Cook Bonk The "Eskimo Cook Book" con tains recipes for soups, greens, and desserts, as well as fish, meat, fowl, tea, and two items obliously introduced by the white man sourdough hoteakes and doughnuts. Style Show Wednesday ASHLAND The 1963 Soropti mist club style show to be pre sented Wednesday evening promises several surprises. Be ginning at 8:30 p.m. in the Elks lounge the parade of autumn apparel will be described by Dr. Irene Hollenbeck, Southern Oregon college professor and member of the Ashland Soropti mist club. Seven local stores will present the latest in fashions that will be modeled by adults and jun iors. This year there are to be masculine models for the fall kick-off. All proceeds will go to the Soroptimist scholarship fund. Entertainment and refresh ments are included in the an nual club event for which res ervations should he made by September 30 with any Soropti mist member or with Mrs. Mil dred Klum, 482-2588. Eskimo cookery is elementary'- Meat and fowl usually are boiled and seasoned only with salt and pepper. Fish is boiled or fried, or salted or dried for future use. Fresh greens available only during summer are scalded and stored in barrels or sealskin pokes, or bags, and allowed to freeze for winter use. They are generally served with sugar or seal oil. An Eskimo's idea of dessert ranges from cranberries, blue berries, or salmonberries (cook ed as they are here, with sugar and water) to ice cream that resembles ours in name only. It is made of grated reindeer tallow beaten with seal oil and water. Sometimes boiled lincod, a fish, is added. Not all Eskimo food is alien to the white man's palate. Duck is universally popular. Rabbit and squirrel are regional fa vorites in parts of the United States. Rabbit is also widely eaten in France. Ptarmigan, a small game bird, is well-liked ! in Scandinavia, where it is serv- j ed with sour cream sauce. My palate shudders at the ! thought of boiled owl, but I ! have eaten and enjoyed whale j meat steak in as civilized a res taurant as that of the National Press club in Washington, D C. The texture and color of the rare steak resembled well-aged beef, and the flavor was sur prisingly non-fishy. Two soup recipes reflected not only the white man's in fluence, but also that of con venience cookery. Nellie Ki grook's shce fish soup calls for curry powder and catsup, and her caribou soup, for rice or macaroni and a well-known American brand of canned soup.

Home Furnishing Tastes Vary Geographically CHICAGO (UPI) - Tastes in home furnishings vary almost as much as dialects, according to a recent survey. If you're a West Virginian, for instance, you like your de cor in the contemporary vein, spiked with plenty of color, and with figures of animals or birds in pictures. But if you're from Northern California, you prefer Early American styling, in natural wood or wood tone finishes and with inanimate objects such as clocks and pot-bellied stoves.
