Home-Made Ice Cream Feature Of Pops, Jazz Concert At Park Next Sunday

Italy has its spaghetti. Switzer-
land has its cheese. Mexico has
its tortillas. But the United States
has ice cream!
Apparently the delectable stuff

Three Hurt
In Mishaps
Three' Klamath Falls residents
received cuts and bruises and
were treated at the Klamath Val
ley Hospital after two car ecci
dents, Wednesday and Thursday,
investigated by the Klamath Falls
Police Department.
Two of the injured received head
cut's after their heads smashed
iiilo the car windshields.
Injured were passengers, Han
dell Rowland, 15, 1436 Canby
Street, cuts on forehead; Sammy
Gorden, 64, Commercial Rooms,
cuts and bruises, and Edward
Williams, 41, Pelican Hotel, head
cuts.
In Wednesday's two-car crash
a car driven by Wendell A. Smith,
50, 1338 Eldorado Avenue, col
lided with a vehicle driven by
Mitchell Harden, 19, 523 South
Eighth Street, at the intersec
tion of South Ninth and Walnut
streets. Rowland and Gordon were
passengers In the Harden car.
Police cited Smith for failing
to yield the right of way toi
another vehicle. Both vehicles re
ceived moderate damage.
Thursday's crash was a one
car accident in which a vehicle
belonging to Raymond L. Olson,
Route 1, Klamath Falls, and driv
en , by an unknown person,
slammed Into a house at 352
Washington Street, owned by Wil
liam Canton. The car received
major damage and damage to the
house was moderate.
Witnesses spotted the driver and
a woman passenger run from the
scene without leaving their names
and addresses, and Edward Wil
liams, one of the passengers was
taken to Klamath Valley Hos
pital with head cuts. The acci
dent occurred at 4:30 p.m.
however. The first recorded inci
dent of its being served tells of
an ingeious French chef surpris
ing his master, the Due de
Chartres, with ice cream for his
dinner one night in 1774. The story
docs not credit the Due's chef
with its creation, so its origin
remains a mystery.
Neither can a later Due de
Chartres be credited with intro
ducing ice cream to this country.
The young French prince, grand
son of Louis Pliillipe, did come
to Americal to serve on the
staff of the Federal Army during
the Civil War, but by that time
Dolly Madison has influenced his
tory by making the velvety con
coction a White House specialty.
Historians have analyzed Presi
dent Madison as a profound think
er and a dominate maker of for
eign policy. But scholarly though
the good president was, he was a
fractious man with no personal
charm whatever a man who an
tagonized and alienated his visi
tors and associates.
The disposition of his North Car
olina born wife was the exact op-
posite to his. Mrs. Madison is
still considered to have been the
gayest, most gracious first lady
who ever adorned the White i
House. Historians can't know how
many hot tongues were cooled and
bitter animosities averted when1
lovely Dolly flashed her husband's
important guests a warm smile as
she handed them a cold dish of
her famous ice cream.
When its occupants fled the
White House during the War of
1812, Dolly Madison practical, too
saved much of the valuable
silver and many important papers.
It's easy to imagine that she hast
ily popped her favorite ice cream
recipes into her capacious poke
and took them along too.
As late as 1850, ice cream was
an uncommon delicacy, reserved
for wealthy citizens who lived in
the great mansions. But the coun
try's farmers who filled their
block houses with winter ice for
hot weather use, soon discov
ered they, too, could have ice
cream. They fig'ired it wasn't1
much more trouble to make than
most desserts, even though the
container of mix, set into a tub
of chopped ice and salt, had to
be stirred constantly with a paddle
until the ice cream was frozen.
Then in 1843, another lady, Nan
cy M. Johnson of Philadelphia.
patented her first home ice cream
freezer. The ones in use today re
tain virtually the same design
though in these automated times,
some are electrically powered.
Our babies learn to cry for
"cream cones" before they can
say ".Mama." It's incredible that
so short a time ago as the middle ath County" was in the old Chit-
of the last century ice cream was
a suspicious novelty and children
had to be coaxed to try it.
An old cook book tells of three
little girls who pooled their for
tune, a handful of pennies, to buy
one dish of strawberry ice cream
impaled with three spoons. When
they tasted it, they were so dis
appoined that leaving the pink
mound to melt to strawberry soup,
they ran from the soda fountain,
sobbing because their pennies
were gone.
The first soda fountain in Klam
ath Falls, according to Rachel Ap-
wood Drug Store which stood in
1899 very near the present Vet
erans Memorial Park on the cor
ner now bearing the address 66j
Main Street.
Maybe early Klamath Falls chil
dren pooled their small fortunes
to buy ice cream at Chitwoods.
Old-timers say they remember
strolling down (o the soda (oun
tain on warm summer evenings
(or a cooling treat.
Research material asserts flat
ly that ice cream is scarcely
obtainable in European and other
foreign capitals, and is penetrat-
to the demands of traveling Amer
icans. Andy Collier of Klamath
Falls states just as flatly, "Not
so." He has recently returned
from a trip to Africa where he
ate in cities in Ethiopia, Kenya.
Egypt and other "foreign capi
tals," and he says he was served
excellent ice cream nearly every
where he went.
Whatever the ice cream situa
tion in other countries, it's far
and away America's most popu
lar dessert.
Basinites may eat vanilla ice
cream, made just as it has
been ever since Nancy Johnson
plegate Good's "History of Klam-'ing those cities slowly in response invented her bicep-buckling freez-

It will connect with an existing

48 miles starting on the north

The continuous strip concrete in
the road is beliovcd to be the
Jongest such construction in the
nation.
Heavier steel reinforcement was
