8 MONDAY, NEW YORK (UPI) - "Roast pig and ritual" are typical out door party fare in Puerto Rico, but the island's cuisine also re Cook's fvl Tour By Jeanne Lesem f ' flects sophisticated continental ' influences, says Senora Carmen Aboy Valldcjuli. Barbecued pig wilh garlic sauce is popular for cookouts, added the senora, a leading food authority in the U.S. com monwealth. But there's little outdoor cooking as on the main land. In an interview, she de scribed Caribbean food, and Puerto Rican in particular, as a cosmopolitan melange adapt ed to local ingredients and , tastes. Tha charming, gray -haired grandmother, wife of engineer Luis Valldejuli, is unofficial food consultant for government , visitors and the author of two cookbooks "Cocina Criolla," in Spanish, and used as a text book in Puerto Rican public schools, and "The Art of Carib bean Cookery," in English. Senora Valldejuli said typical Puerto Rican foods include adaptations of American apple ' pie, Christmas egg nog and j Thanksgiving turkey. Fresh ap- pies stewed with sugar and but , ter replace raw, sugared apples ', in the pie. Egg nog is made with coco nut milk and rum instead of plain milk and bourbon. The turkey is washed with lime Juice and water, seasoned highly, and - filled with meat-fruit stuffing instead of bread dressing. Elsewhere in the Caribbean, Dutch islands cook with lots of cheese, French islands, wilh Couple Gives Holiday Dinner MONTAGUE Mr. and Mrs. Ogden Walters entertained a large family group at their ranch home north of Montague on Christmas Day.

Beans and rice also are sta ple in all island homes and her own househld uses three pounds of rice a day for seven persons, she added. Plantains are another favor ite, non-sweet bananas that never are eaten raw. But they are fried, roasted, baked, boiled and made into fried chips. Typical Caribbean food may be sweet by mainland standards poultry often is cooked in sweel wine insload of dry table wine, and sugar is added to some soups and vegetables. But West Indians like it that way, suggesied her husband, "be cause sugar is our main prod uct." Less important economically, hut equally delicious, are jams, jellies, preserves, sauces and canned juices made from tropi cal fruit such as guava, man go, papaya, and pineapple. At a Puerto Rican Thanksgiving dinner, guava jelly substitutes for cranberries, said the cook ing expert, and fresh fruit is a typical lunch dessert. Cocktail TableSaid Useful To Americans, basic furniture apparently included something to sleep on, something to eat on, something to sit on, and a cock tail table. Actually Americans aren't ex clusive in their preference for (his useful and decorative piece of furniture. Its ancestry is at least as old as ancient Greece. Drawings show that table simi lar to our modern cocktail table were in abundance often used next lo a couch for serving food and drink. Toduy the range of cocktail tobies includes every Imagin able size, shape, color and de sign. Because of their relative smallness. expensive veneers arc oflen used. Materials and embellishments such as leather, inlaid bandings, marble, and centered medallions are fre quently seen in furniture lines that generally offer several choices within the one group. Consider Points In selecting cocktail table. 1 lie Home Furnishings Industry Committee recommends thai you consider several points. The lines, not the size, of the cocktail table should ho com patible wilh oilier furniture. A long slender sofa may have a large total size, but the slender lines, rather than tho overall bigness, should guide you in se lecting a complimentary table. The tops of cocktail tables are always on display and thus should always be attractive and uncluttered. The finish should resist liquids and general stress In maintain that surface beauty. Underpinnings should be design ed so that people won't trip or hosiery won't be snagged. Oulsizcd cocktail tables arc elegant in the right place, but they should never dominate the room. Used functionally, a table will not prevent smooth traffic in a room or trap people behind a sofa.

How To Have Explained By Bv PATRICIA McCORMACK NEW YORK (UPI) If you are the cautious type and want to be really sure that the family car will not be stolen, do this: Park it in the middle of a snowdrift in Connecticut, South Dakota or Iowa. Cramps your driving, of course, when there is no snow. But it is theft proof. If you are the carefree type who pays no attention to how much it will cost you to have the family buggy snatched, do this: Park it on a quiet, dim street in Chicago, in midsummer. Please leave the key in ihe ig nition. People who keep track of such things swear this is the way to either keep or lose your car, de pending on your wishes at a given instant. Chicago, say the makers of a report on car thefts, had the greatest number of car thefts last year, more than 30,000. The same last complete com parison nt car theft rates also showed Connecticut had the low est, 3.04 thefls per 100.000 regis trations. It was lower during snow time. Was Second South Dakota was second with 7.88; Iowa, third with 8.92 There Is a drop in the theft count when Icen-agers go Back to school after summer vaca tion ends. Cold weather and heavy snows chill Ihe loll tem porarily. That is why your car is safest in a Connecticut, South Dakota or Iowa snow drift. There does not breathe the crook, It seems, who will go to the trouble of heaving a shovel when Ihe object of his deviation from the law is snowbound. Statistics and thoughts on car thefts come from Fletcher B. Coleman, senior vice president of State Farm Mutual, largest auto insurer in the world. The expert on how not lo have your i.ir stolen said poor little law abiding you aid and assist a car snatcher any time you: 'uiumvv' WW MEDKORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, Woman . . Leisure . . . Arts Car Stolen Insurer Leave the key in the ignition lock. Leave the car doors unlocked or the windows open. Park on dim side streets with little traffic. Leave articles of value, cam eras, binocular, typewriters or furs, in plain sight, even though the car is locked. Leave the car parked for a long time, even in a garage, without checking It regularly. Keep the car keys above the sun visor or other obvious hid ing places. Coleman, who heads State Farm Mutual's claims unit, is concerned about auto owners who aid and abet car thieves. Nix List He suggests first you do not do any of the things on the nix list a couple paragraphs back. If you want to really trip the crook in the act, there are de vices to help. One gadget will blow the horn if anyone who does not know the combination tries to open the door or move the auto. A switch and a piece of wire will foil a would he thief using a key or an ignition jumper, un less he takes the trouble to trace the firing. An air bleed, which you open when leaving your car, prevents fuel from reaching the cylind ers, effectively stopping any one from driving it away. But even without such de vices, any driver willing to take a few horse sense precautions can prevent his car from being an easy mark. Just be vigilant to the pos sibility of theft. Remove the keys, lock the doors and close the windows when you park.

That's what William Riley tells young couples who rent the 3!4- room apartmenls in his King Arthur Developments at Addison and Northlake in the suburbs of Chicago. It's written into the leases, too. No escaping that move when the first child is five. Riley's apartment projects are about as unique as you'll tind in real estate development. All are designed for young cou ples with no children who want swimming, tennis and other country club living attractions right at hand. Conditions Changing "They are economically and socially justified by certain changing basic conditions in our society today," Riley said. First the number of people in their twenties in our population will increase by 9 per cent in the next two years a much faster rise than in recent years second, today s young cou ples often don't have the down payment for a house or a co operative apartment. The hus band is not a veteran or, if he is, the long F.I. mortgage does not look very attractive to him. "Third, Ihe very young cou ple probably can't find a house that will give them near as much for $139 a month as our apartments do." Finally and this is the rea son Riley's tenants are quite willing to say goodbye amic ably when the first child reaches school age "We build near schools." "That," Riley explained, "makes us welcome in many suburban areas that won't grant permits for standard apartment houses for families with school age children.

Interest Investors From the standpoint of the investor, Riley's King Arthur projects are unusual, too. He builds them in 14-family units costing an average of $161,000. Of this, an "armchair investor" puts up $28,000, the rest being covered by conventional mort gage and building financing. "Gross income," Riley says, "comes to around $23,552 a year for the 14 apartments and the cash flow profit is about $3,400 12 per cent on the $28,000. Riley management gets $900 a year before this profit. "In addition, the armchair in vestor should realize property value gain around $6,500 a year." So far, Riicy's two develop ments include 13 buildings with 200 units. Their armchair in vestor - owners range from jani tors to fashionable physicians and successful business people. Riley now is studying the suburban areas of New York and the faster - growing cities of the south and far west for sites suitable for more of his apartments especially tailored for the couple still awaiting the first baby.
