SEASONING
By JEAN GREEN

Veal is one OF the featured
meats at this time of year. It
is inexpensive and has many
possibilities for the clever
menu planner.
Its flavor is rather mild and
the meat lacks fat, so that
strips of lard or bacon should
be used in preparing it for
roasting. This fat also adds
flavor in cooking.
Roasts of veal are ideal for Sun
day dinner. The slices should be
served with some type of Spiced
fruit sauce or jelly. The roast that
is left over can be used as the
basis of the Monday dinner.
Since the flavor of the veal is
so bland, the choice of seaSoningS
should be carefully considered.
Certain foreign dishes such as
chop Suey and curries can be made
with this veal.
The forequarter of the veal is
one of the inexpensive cuts. This
can be roasted whole like the
choicest leg or loin cut. If roasted
whole, however, there may be
carving difficulties, because of the
shoulder blade bone. Having the
shoulder boned for Stuffing solves
this problem. The stuffing also
adds a flavor that makes the
roast even more delightful.
If the shoulder is roasted with
out removing the bone, the proper
method of carving is to pass the
knife from the outer edge of the
shoulder through the meat to-
ward the carver until the bone is
reached. Take off slice after slice
in this direction. Then turn the
meat and carve the meat lying
on either side of the blade bone
lengthwise.
If the shoulder is boned, stuffed,
and rolled, the roast is compact
and the carving problem is at a
minimum. When you have the
meat boned, ask your butcher for
the discarded bone. This can be
used for soups.

WEDDING RING
Dear Miss Fairfax:
"The question has come up as
to which ring of a bridal set
should be worn on top. Some say
the engagement and others the
wedding ring. There's an agru-
ment on both sides, since the en-
gagement ring is the most costly
and should be protected by the
wedding ring, acting as guard.
Yet, in oIden days, the wedding
ring was not supposed to be re-
moved, and to be worn beneath
the engagement ring. Which way
is correct? PUZZLED"
The wedding ring must not be
put above the engagement ring.
On her wedding day a bride either
leaves her engagement ring at
home. when she goes to church, or
she wears it on her right hand.
Afterwards she wears it above her
wedding ring.

The organization of men whose
work was largely responsible for
making a unified, law-abiding
State out Of the sprawling region
Of early Texas is immortalized in
King Vidor'S epic, "The Texas
Rangers, opening Friday at the
Earle Theater.
Filled with action and the color
of the MISREPRESENTATION period
along the Panhandle, THE Texas
Rangers" features a cast headed
by such top-notch stars as Fred
MacMurray, Jack Oakie, Jean
Parker, Lloyd Nolan, Edward Ellis
and Bennie Bartlett. 1t was
filmed in outdoor locations in
Texas and New Mexico, with the
governors of both States giving
full cooperation.
THE Texas Rangers" drama
tizes the work of the early band
of semi-military State police in
putting down hostile Indians, rid
ding the country of bad men and
cattle thieves, and making Texas
a reasonably safe place in which
to live" in accordance with their
oath. Two tribes of Indians were
enlisted to stage the historic
battle which brought the final
Subduing Of fierce Southwestern
Redskins.
Both MacMurray and the wise
cracking Oakie are members Of
the Rangers in the picture. Miss
Parker, as the daughter of the
commander of their station, is
the center of the romantic story
which is featured against the epic
background.

"Fridoy 18th"
Feature at
BeIosco

Friday the 18th" Is a picture
you will want to see from the be-
ginning. If you walk in on 1t IN
the middle, as did this reviewer, 1t
is a chaotic tumble. Yet seen from
the beginning it is one of the clever
est and best done films Of the year.
The picture, a Gaumont-B British
production, in addition to being
based on a novel idea, is we'll di-
rected, Superbly acted and moves
at a rapid tempo.
The picture opens at the eli
max-a bus crash in London. It
then moves back in time to the
preceding day and traces the &C
tionS and problems of those who
were involved in the accident.
With British thoroughness, the
driver and conductor Of the bus
are included in this roundup.
Several separate and distinct
stories, as you see, are carried
along together, the only meeting
place Of the various Segments be-
ing the bus accident.
1t is a tremendously appealing
piece of work. The camera fits
from one story to another, keeping
you abreast Of all of them, with
bewildering rapidity at times, but
there is nothing confusing in the
film if you get in on the beginning.
. The piquant Jessie Matthews is
featured in this narrative, as a
dancing girl, of course. She does
a convincing and interesting eve
ning's work. She, however, plays
the lead in only one Of the several
stories that go to make up this
rather remarkable film.
Those playing the leads in the
other stories are: Edmund Gwenn,
Gordon Harker, Ursula Jeans,
Frank Lawton and Sonnie Hale.
A large and competent cast
takes care of the subsidiary roles
in the various narratives. Particu-
larly outstanding work is contrib
uted by Muriel Aked, Emlyn Will
liamS, Belle Chrystall, Martha
Hunt, Ralph Richardson and Don
aid Calthrop.
The film is reminiscent, in its
basic structure, of the American
film, IF I Had a Million In
many respects, particularly in ar
tistic integrity, Friday the 18th"
tops it.
The Belasco program is heavy
with secondary film advertisement.
Among these films may be men
toned a musical feature with a
technicolor background, a majes-
tically beautiful thing, and a
scenic feature of Yellowstone Park
in which the geySer, "Old Faith
full" is both seen and heard. A
news reel is also included in the
subsidiary features. j. w. B.

KELLEYGRAMS

Never heard quite as much
drama packed into five minutes
as Harry Richman and Dick Mer-
rill stuffed into their brief session
on the Ken Murray program last
night. Richman took down $500
for his precious words and Pilot
Merrill $1,500. 1t was surely
thrilling to hear the flierS describe
the reactions when their engine
went momentarily dead while they
were flying 5000 feet high in mid
ocean. That I would call life'S
most embarrassing moment. g.
The explanation of Crooner Rich
man as to how the rumor started
about the airmen having a dis
agreement sounded like salt
mackerel to me. However, the
plan to sell the 41,000 ping pong
balls which we're in the Lady
Peace's wings is practical charity
The autographed balls with a
log of the trip written on them
will be sold for 50 each, the funds
going to a foundation to help the
widows and children of those who
perished on ocean air flights. :.
Ken Murray bought the first SOU
venir for $25. Comedian Murray's
regular program, by the way, was
top notch.
