This talking over things that

utterly unable to "open up" and
thrash things out. Expressing their

In making q sweet sauce, We have
a very easy way Of separating the

did In making fillings)-then we
can add hot liquid and cook and

We use the same proportion OF
thickening material for each cup OF

in Lesson /.
For medium thickness:
2 tablespoons flour to l cup liquid
or / tablespoon cornstarch to ] cup

We use flour when the sauce need

when the sauce must be clear. We
make the sauce exactly the same
way with either Of these starchy ma

days-the early stages of his own

fighting spirit, greater aggressiveness
and sharper rivalry in base ball this

The Babe doesn't contemplate any
personal feuds with Dizzy Dean or
any one else. Even If the ace Of the
st. Louis Cardinals pitching staff
flung lot of unkind remarks at him,
he still considers Dizzy ''just a kid"
