radio listeners how he does his
work. In other words, he'll try
and tell how a play is directed.
Mr.. Brooke not only can direct
plays but has had his fling in
pictures. He bossed the job OF
acting in Norma shearer's Last
of Mrs. Cheyney," when that
Lonsdale play was transferred to
the screen by Metro-Goldywn. He
also had a hand in Ramon No
varro's "Devil-May-Care."
If he is not directing Mr..
Brooke likes to act. He doesn't
get much opportunity but when
the National Players offer Bird

innkeeper. And before we for
get it, this broadcast will come
from VOL. The time Is 3 p. m.

about Phil Cook and his YER
satility revealed at 7:3O night

crafty it when he comes to the
Fox Theater in about 10 days.
His vaudeville act includes the
voice changes and impersona-
tions which make his broadcast
outstanding.
For his stage work he grabs

Limited Topics

One learns by reading Peter
Dixon's edifying book, Radio
Writing" that profanity is never
tolerated in a script for broadcast
ing; that matters dealing with sex,
divorce, eternal triangles, jests at
prohibition and the President or
even Congressman are taboo, and
you mustn't make fun of crazy
people. In other words, when you
write something for radio, ask
yourself before turning it in,
would you say this in the living
room?"
Heavens! What CAN one write
about?

HOLLYWOOD, Calf, April 81.
Emerging into the news once
more, Ralph Graves is to play
Adolphe Menjou's successful rival
in 1.-THE Great Lover"
The last few months of this
young actors checkered career
have been spent at Metro-Gold-
Wyn-Mayer, where he is signed to
a writing and acting contract. It
was his work in Plight" and
"Dirigible" that won him this
offer.
Graves is 81 years old. He was
in pictures as far back as D. w.
Griffith's Dream Street." and
has continued, with varying sue
cess, ever since. At one time he
dropped to serials and comedies,
but in the last two years has
been making steady comeback.
He has completely lived down
the tooth-paste ad smile of his
early career.

On the eve before market day, the unloading and piling of the globe shaped cheeses is begun, From boat and wagon they are tossed. two by two, into the open arms of men who
 pass them to others who deftly ar- range them in rectangular piles, two cheess high.
 With a signal from the weigh
 house clock, the chatter between
 buyers and sellers begins. As the
 day progresses the chief actors of the day appear, the cheese bearers.
 During the trading the cheeses are tested by boring holes into them or tapping them. From the market the cheses are. conveyed by barges or, taken directly to the warehouses of the cheese-mongers where they are prepared for export. These to be shipped to nontropical countries are painted red. Those consigned to equatorial regions. are soaked in parafin..

A Zesty Sauce
 Adds Variety Meat Loaf Depends Some what on Sauce for Its
 Success
HORSERADISH BUTTER

Meat has so much natural flavor
 that to add other substances is
 rather like gliding the lily. but, for
 the sake of variety, we sometimes Hike to give the meat dish a subtle ltouch of this or that which makes lit just a bit different. The National Live Stock and Meat board suggests
 these ways of, not improving, but
 giving a slightly different tang to
 meat dishes: | A steak from high quality beef
 needs only to be properly broiled to
 make a dish fit to put before a king,
 but If you want to have the family
 sit up and ask you how you did 1t,
 try this one. Just as the steak IS
 about ready to come from the broil-
 CT, lay over it thin slices Of soft American cheese, and put back un-
 der the flame to melt the cheese. A zesty sauce adds to the attrac-
 tiveness of a meat loaf, especially if the loaf is made from leftover cooked meat, in which case 1t can
 stand a little additional flavor. Sauce for Meat Loaf Cut very fine one clove of garlic and one onion; cook until tender. but not brown, in two tablespoons of bacon fat. Add one can of tomato
 sauce, two cups of meat stock, one pimento, chopped fine. and salt, pep
 per and paprika to taste. Cook un-
 til thick and then turn over the
 meat loaf.
 Maitre d'hotel Butter Cream four tablespoons of butter.
 add one tablespoon finely minced parsley, one tablespoon lemon juice, one-half teaspoon salt, and one fourth teaspoon onion juice. Chill and form into small balls. Serve with broiled lamb chops or steak. Pimento Sauce Melt two tablespoons of butter. add two tablespoons of flour and one half teaspoon of salt. Stir until
 smooth. Add one cup meat broth and cook until thick. Boil one min-
 ute, add two tablespoons lemon juice
 and two chopped pimentos. Serve
 with tongue.
 Horseradish Butter Cream one-fourth pound butter, add four tablespoons fresh grated horse radish, a little salt and dash lof cayenne. Blend thoroughly. Spread on hot broiled steaks or chops.

cuts from the chuck should be sea
 soned with pepper and salt. then
 dredged with flour, before searing. Allowing 3-4 teaspoon salt and Is teaspoon pepper for each pound of
 meat is considered the ideal-season- ing. Steam roasting, pot roasting, graising, stewing and boiling are considered the best methods. Steam roasting Is cooking the meat in a covered roaster with q small amount of water or stock
 added after the meat has been
 scared. It differs from the method
 of roasting in that moisture Is
 added and the meat is cooked GOV cred.
 ROAST CHUCK. 4 lbs chuck teaspoon pepper 1-3 cup thinly sliced onion 2 bay leaves tablespoons flour 1-8 teaspoon allspicc 4 teaspoons salt Wipe meat with damp cloth

then dredge 1t with flour. Rub skill let with suet and when pan Is hot, quickly scar roast on all sides. Add seasonings, except salt. Roast in hot oven for 15 minutes, sprinkle with salt, lower heat and cook slowly until tender. Baste every 20 minutes adding a little boiling water If necessary. This dish will require about 3 hours in the preparation.

Beef Is Always
 Acceptable Dish
Offers Many Ways and Means of Making Summer
 Drudgery in the Kitchen Easier

chuck, short ribs, flank and lower round of beef are made tender and delicious by long slow cooking and will be found very nominal in price. The use of the oven for these cuts and the planning of oven dinners when one has an insulated, controll- ed oven, will save hours of labor in hot kitchen. Beef cuts are espec- ially we'll suited to this type of cookery.
 What to Look For.
 When buying beef look at the bone, color of the flesh and marb- ling or graining. If the bone shows pink, the flesh light or cherry red in color, and the meat is well marbled or grained with O creamy white fat, and is of the texture of velvet, you know it is young meat. When properly cooked the meat will be tender and delicious.
 Cooking.
 The application of the correct method of cookery will govern to a major extent the attractiveness and palatability of the meat. All the

Beef is an ever popular meat or which the family rarely tires, be- cause there are so many distinct cuts and methods of preparation.
 Now that the days are getting warmer and the great out-of-doors entices us to forget our homemak- ing tasks and play, we should plan meals that will actually take care of themselves" while we enjoy the sunshine. We can do this if we choose cuts of meat that can be cooked slowly and for 8 long time rather than steaks and chops that cook quickly, but are usually very high in price. The cuts from the
