Travelogue on Alaska
Study Club Program
A travelogue on Alaska was
given at the October 29 meet

of the Oregon Federation of
Women's Clubs by Mrs. Esther
Coleman.
Mrs. Coleman and her hus

12 years at Noorvik, Point Hope
and Buckland.
Mr. Coleman was local rein

cutting a new dress from this
half pattern.
The Eskimos were using sour
dough when the Colemans ar
rived but soon learned to like
other American food such as
macaroni, spaghetti, rice and
whole wheat flour.
They all were students of na

day watching an animal, could
detect fog miles away, hear
planes long before they were
sighted and were good weath

New Tool Aids Research
AtOSU In Food Flavors
CORVALLIS - A powerful
new research tool a mass
spectrometer has been instal
led in Oregon State University's
food science department as an
aid to basic studies on food
flavors.
The mass spectrometer was
made possible under a $67 000
grant to Dr. E. A. Day and Dr.
H. W. Schultz from the National
Institute of Health, U. S. Public
Health Service.
Studies on the chemistry of
natural food flavors are compli
cated because many compounds
may constitute a single flavor,
and most flavor compounds oc
cur in extremely low concentra
tions, it was noted.
Flavors are also elusive and
easily destroyed during isola
tion from foods and subsequent
identification. With the aid of
mass spectrometry in combina
tion with gas chromatography.
Dr. Day and his associates hope
to more clearly define food flav
ors, learn what mechanisms are
involved in flavor development
and why flavors sometimes de
teriorate in foods.
Only One
Dr. Day points out that OSU's
Food Science Department is the
only one in the country with a
mass spectrometer. With the aid
of the instrument, scientists will
be able to obtain information
on flavor compounds in a frac
tion of the time required by
conventional micro chemical
methods.
OSU's research program in
flavor chemistry has two main
objectives: to define natural
flpvors, and to learn what mech
anisms are responsible for flav
or production and deterioration.
Once key flavor constituents
have been pinpointed, scientists
