ITALIAN WOMEN COOK
 FOR VISITING PRIESTS
Missioners at St. Mary's Find American Cuisine
 Not Palatable

With hundreds of Italians taking advantage of the mission being given for their benefit at St. Mary's church this week and the church being filled to capacity at devotions every morning and evening, an unusual situation has arisen a. St. Mary's rcctory involving the two Dominican Fathers who have been conducting the mission services,
 Fathers Ferrari, o. P. and Rrcrola, 0. P, the two visiting priests in charge. lived in Rome, Italy, until recently. During their short stay in this country, they have been unable to become accustomed to the American style of service at meals. Although the menu served at the rectory was of the most palat- able, it lacked that true Italian flavor and preparation which de lights the taste of the true Latin born.
 News of the dilemma which con ! ] ONt'u illt LNp iiil'''''iif'i '-'' '''''N out among the members of the Italian parish and steps were taken to correct the situation.
 A consultation was held among the most prominent representatives of the Italian congregation and call was sent out to the Italian cooks of the city. The response was immediate and generous. Every day family prepares the meals for the two priests and the deilcacy Of the yiands and the oxcellency Of their preparation would put to shame the most famous of chefs.
 First comes the dish known as La Giardiniera. Then follows Ie Raviole in Brodo. Next follows the course made famous i'll Italy, Spaghetti la Napolitana. The main course consists of roast stuffed chicken followed by Frittura al Carciofe and celery. Then desert, Frutta a Specialita, Vino Dapasto with tasty Dolci and Gelati and Cafe Nero to finish.

Old Orchard, Me. Oct. 14 P>-ln spite ot perfect weather here Mrs. Frances Wilson Grayson and her two companions postponed the start of their flight to Copenhagen today because of reports of storms at Sea. It appeared probable that they could not hop off before : a. m. tomorrow, when low tide will make conditions favorable for the run along the beach,
 Mrs. Grayson, with Winner Stultz pilot and Brice Goldsborough, nayi- gator and radio operator expressed disappointment at the new delay They inspected their plane, the Dawn, carefully for reassurance that it escaped damage in the storm which swept the beach yesterday.

 Mrs. Grayson said she was much disappointed but that In keeping with her announced plans for a safe and sane flight" there was nothing to do but to hope that when tidal conditions are again favorable, tho weather may have cleared.
 Low tide will come at s tonight. But as it will be long after dark ness has fallen and Wilbert Stultz, co- pilot Of the expedition, who ex- poets 10 be at the stick as the ma chine gets away, has expressed a de- sire 10 make the start in daylight. the actual time Of departure re- mained admittedly doubtful.
 FcS Conditions Serious
 Weather reports which were plac- cd at Mrs. Graysor's disposal this morning showed in addition to 4S mile head winds off the coast, seri- ous fog conditions near Newfound- land and cyclonic storms in mid ocean.
 The Dawn remained on the small concrete area before the only han gar on the beach. which, however, was inadequate to house the big t"o-motorcd ship. It was drawn there last night with the aid of a crowd of spectators after a day of near peril from heavy seas.
 A close inspection of the engines, however, convinced members of the party that no damage had been done.
 Today's delay was only one Of a long series of enforced postpone ments that has attended efforts of Mrs. Grayson and her companions to get under way The Dawn flew here last Monday after having waited in vain at Roosevelt field, L. l., since early in September for d weather "break" that never came.
