Mrs. Avis J. McConnell. presi dent and manager ,of the Peli can Restaurant Corporation, pre sides over what is sometimes called a "culinary no-man's laud." The Pelican Cafe, widely known and hishly regarded as a distinc tive eating establishment, upholds the supremacy of women in dis pensing cood food. In-tact. Mrs. McConnell, who has managed the Pelican since April 10. 1933. says for the type restaurant she operates, women are far superior to men in the kitchen. She employs women ex clusively for her kitchen and dining room. POSE AS CIIKFS "Men as cooks are as tempera mental as opera singers," she added, "I have known very few men cooks, regardless of how lim ited their experience might be, ; who would hesitate to pose as chefs." I According to Mrs. McConnell. self-styled chefs are a dime a. dozen. If Horatio Alger was around these days and wanted to write about girls who strive and suc ceed, he'd have a good subject in Mrs. McConnell. She started out in lite with the idea ot becoming a school teacher. Mrs. McConnell was born Jan uary 8. 1894 in Columbus Junction. Iowa. When she was 9 years old, the family moved to Hartllne, Washington. Her father became president of the Hartllne State Bank. vovin TO KI.AMATH FALLS i After graduating from B r u n o t Hill, an Episcopal preparatory school for girls in Spokane, Mrs. M-rnnndl enrolled in the Univer sity of Washington at Seattle. After two years sne quit, aumui w un married. That was in 1912. Ten vmm later she returned to the University. She was graduated In 1924. Then she moved to Klamath Falls From 1924 to 1933. she operated tearooms and worked for the Cali fornia Oregon Power Company and Klamath Irrigation District. In excluding men from the Peli can. Mrs. McConnell made one exception. She employes Neal Fife to dispense beverages in the es tablishment's bar which is known as The Wing. Then ... Lucille Warner Is the kitchen I manager of the Pelican. She has been there more than 30 years. "Klamath Falls has been good to me." Mrs. McConnell concluded "I believe I have been much hap pier than If I had become a school teacher." (Listen to Mrs. McConnell Sun day 10:15 KFLW.) p.m., Radio dead as: Mai. James T.

UP) The U.S. Northeast Air Command said Sat urday 700 paratroopers this week made the first tactical air drop within 900 miles of the North Pole. They parachuted to the Ice of a bav near Thule. Greenland. The men Jumped from C124 Globemasters Wednesday into 40- degree-below-zero cold for the be ginning of "Exercise Arctic Night." The exercise was a simulated attack against an arctic air base. and designed to develop proce dures and techniques for Joint sue. Thousands of Eastern Oregou residents turned out to hear the senator and congressman. Perhaps debates among the cur rent batch of office seekers would stir up interest. As the campaign progresses, u win be imeiesuns m see how many of the old" political cliches and catch phrases will be brought into play. A few old stand bys are "drive the rascals out." 'I wear no man s coiiar aim don't chance horses in the middle of the stream. Another one mat probablv won't be very popular I "Joe Blow robbed the people for four years, now give me a chance.' Senator Richard L. Neuberger. Democrat of Oregon, who is not up for reelection, isn't going to sit this one but after all. The senator ..ntlflfri the Herald and Newj tils week that he has entered the lists as a candidate for delegate to tne nomncratie National Convention. If he wins the post in the May 18 primary it will be the first time Neuberger has attended a national r.niitiAi rnnvention. senator Neu berger takes pride in the fact that he is the Ilrsl memoer oi ins From what we galher in talking to folks on Main Street, the Re publican fight between Interior Sec retary Douglas McKay and Phil Hitchcock is liable to take on a "David and Goliath" tinge in the minds of the voters. Hitchcock has been cast in the underdog role, while secretary McKay Is portrayed as the candi dal ol the powerful national ad ministration. The fact that he is supposed to be bucking the nation al OOP bosses may win votes for Hitchcock. A lot ol people have the view that "those guys back in Washington aren't going to run Oregon politics., In the opinion of some old po litical heads in the Basin, Gover nor Elmo Smith played it smart last week on his visi" to the Henley Grange Hall. It was reported the governor planned to make a non partisan talk on OrcRon resources. Many persons who attended the grange and farm bureau dinner waited two hours to hear the gov emor. There were many young children In the audience. They were tired.
