Mutton Chops at Home

You have to buy whole loin when
you're planning English-style chops,
says johnson.
The full loin will weigh 24-25
pounds. 1t will make four or five
chops.
The size of the chop is apt to fool
you, however. You can't eat the bone
and most people don't eat the fat.
That leaves only the middle, meaty
section.
The housewife who doesn't have
a charcoal fire can cook her mutton
chops English style" by:
l. Soaring them under hot
flame.
2. Then putting them in the oven
to broil 40 minutes or SO.
8. Seasoning the chops with a lit
tie butter, pepper and salt.
She can cook her baked potatoes
which should be unusually large
at the same time, since they, too,
will require approximately 40 min
,utes.

This is one in a series of arh-
cIes i'm which famous chefs re-
veal the secrets and menus
which have given their cookery
world wide renown.
BY The Alp Feature Service

Fred johnson is a dapper fellow,
with a man-about- town air, but he
can turn out as tasty a Yorkshire
pudding as ever soothed British
palate.
For II years Johnson has been
chef at the very English Keen's
Chop House, which for many more
years than that has catered to Man
hattan's gourmets.
johnson had his first instruction
in cookery at CRANKY grammar
school in Liverpool. He served
three-year apprenticeship under his
father at the Blackburn-Arms and
Grove hotels there and at Simp-
sons in London. He went to Egypt
and was chef in the Sheppeard's
hotel in Cairo.
"A lot of people don't know how
to use Yorkshire pudding" says
johnson. "On the other side, it is
served with roast beef or as a des-
sert."
The Recipe
This famous dish from John
Bulls kitchens is lot like the good
old American fritter, Johnson ex-
plains. It's batter is made of:
l cup Of flour
2 eggs
y teaspoonful of baking
powder
Il teaspoonful of salt
Milk enough to form
creamy paste
1t is cooked in the pan in which
the beef is roasted. Natural juices
of the beef are run through a
strainer and then poured back into
the pan. Add the batter and cook
for 30 minutes.
To serve the pudding as des-
sert, sprinkle it with powdered sugar
and add a little lemon juice.
Another speciality of Chef john
son is mutton chops :. five inches
thick and broiled over charcoal
fire. He has prepared them for
hundreds of headline names, too,
from Captain Jimmy Mollison to
President canon de Valera.
I'VE serve English mutton chops
in their natural juices" he says,
with an eight-inch Idaho potato,
chutney or picked walnuts and
mug of .arf-and- arr. The combina-
ton is guaranteed to fix you up for
"a week"

Cowboy Crushed By Brahma Steer
 In Garden ROdeO
(spccIaI to the Democrat)


 New York, Oct. l2--Walter Crav- ems, twenty-nine-year-old cowboy, of Butler, Okla., died at li:60 @. m. Sunday in Polyclinic hospital of in- juries he suffering during Saturday nights performance of the Worlds Championship Rodeo in Madison Square Garden when he was kicked and stepped on by a wild 1rahma steer.
 The steer which Cravens drew Sat- urday night was @ huge animal weighing approximately 1900 pounds. When the gate of the chute was thrown open the steer charged into the arena and began bucking and pitching flercely. Cravens tried hard to keep his place on the animals back but several jumps out of the chute he lost his grip and was thrown into the air. AS he fell the steer lashed out and kicked him In the back, knocking the cowboy to the ground.
 Ribs Crushed
 AS Cravens lay on his back on the arena floor the steer bucked again and both of the animals rear feet descended on the side of the cow boys chest. He wag carried from the arena by hospital attendants and some of his fellow cowboys. They took him to Poiyclinic hospital where he was treated by Dr. H. o, ClausS. Cravens had suffered five fractured ribs and his right lung was pierced. The immediate cause of death was internal hemorrhages.
 CraVens was weil-liked among the other cowboys. This was the sixth year he had competed in rodeos in the Garden. He was one of the best of the steer riders. In 1895 he was runner-up for the worlds cham. pionship in this contest. This year he won the steer riding contest ct Amarillo, Texas. Two weeks ago he was kicked by steer he was ate tempting to ride in Oklahoma City but suffered only slight injuries.
 His mother, step-father and Ave sisters survive. Word Of the cowboys death has been sent to step-father who owns a ranch outside Butler, Okla. Funeral arrangements will be announced later.

 aGlCe for aIiy 18th day Of October
 Mcrde Mordecai Brown, alias "Three- Fingered" Brown, gave Fielder Jones White 6oX two hits, and thanks to Johnnie Evers' timely single in the seventh inning, which drove in Manager Chance with the lone tally Of the contest, the Cubs won the fourth game of the world series. Each team has now won two games.
 Nick Aitrock opposed Brown on tn slab, end although he gave seven hits to Browns two, had 1t not been for this aforementioned seventh inning score, the game would have extended into extra innings.
 The Cubs played heads lip" ball though in this seventh session, and their victory over Altrock was clear cut. Chance opened this frame with Q Texas ieagier to right which Hahn just failed to reach; steinfeIdt and Tinker laid down two perfect sacrifices, advancing Chance to third, from where he easily scored on Ever's wallop 10 center.
 Hahn made the first hit of of Brown, 6 single over second in the sixth: the other hit, also c one base hit, was made by NDougherty, past Everg, in the eighth.
 Both teams played grand defen. Sive ball, each making but one mis- play; SEvers, Isbell, and Rohe, in particular, pulled many sensational plays.

WARNER VSDOBIE FOR SECOND TIME WITHIN 35 YEARS
Boston College Favored Over Temple Today;
 Other Grid Notes
By ERNEST BARCELLA

(UntteM PfeSS Sten COFreHpOHUenV
 Boston, Oct. l2-(UP)-For the second time in their long and noble careers, footballs ancient master lninds-Pop Warner and Oil Dobie- will be sitting on opposite benches today when Temple and Boston col- lege clash ct Fenway park.
 Though each has been in the coaching business more than 30 years, they never matched wits un- til Q year ago today. On that occa- sion the Warner system triumphed l4-0. Warner was fixture at Tenn pie and Dobie was new at B. 0.
 B. 0. Favored
 Now that the gloomy gridiron sage has implanted his system thorough ly, the second meeting of the an- cients probably will be different story. This will be Warmers 400th game, but 1t is not likely that he will be celebrating victory ct night- fall. The Dobie system, based on straight Fundamental football with e few trimmings, s due to triumph over the fancy WarneriSnB.
 Boston college and Harvard ere getting pretty chumTny these days. Last Saturday the B. 0. boys were invited to the Harvard stadium to view the Brown game. Today Bos- ton college returns the compliment.
 Incidentally. don't drop dead if Harvard upsets Navy Saturday. Acs counts from Annapolis indicated that the midShipmen didn't show c very hot pass defense in their strug- gle with Virginia Saturday. Unless that weakness is corrected, 1t will prove fatal to Navy inasmuch as Harvards strongest point to date has been it's overhead game.
 Happy Red
 Something muGt be radically wrong ct Dartmouth. All of a sud- den Coach Red Blaik has gone op- timistic. Up to last Saturday, the red-head was 50 doleful about Dart mouths football chances you felt like sharing his crying towel. Now when he talks about his team he uses such expressions as greatly pleased" and "Wc arc c great deal more optimistic about the team than outsiders seem to Dc. Can it be the man ig ill? ,
 Little known facts: The Univer. gity of Vermont football team hasn't scored . field goal fin 10 years. The last time. that rarity occurred with the Green Mountain boys was at the Harvard stadium in 1927.
 Bill Hartman, fullback oil tho Georgia team which meets Holy Cross here Saturday, has been wear. ing the same football pants for tho past two seasons. It may Do super stitution, but the garment workers union probably will investigate. ,,&,

SCHUMACHER TO GET CATE TOO IS NEW REPORT
Yanks Need But One More Pitcher-JOe Mccarthy
 to Get $42,OOO?
By HENRY SUPER United Press Stan COrrespondent)

United Press stan COrrespondent)
 New oYrk, Oct i2. (UP)-When winter trade winds blow, the cham pion New York Giants will be in the thick of the bartering, 1t was be- lieved today.
 As the 1887 World Series passed into history, 1t seemed certain that the Giants would need additional strength If they hope to retain the National league pennant.
 Chief needs will be c top-notch first baseman and Q centerfielder who can hit. To get them, Manager Bill Terry is expected to place Pitcher Hal Schumacher, Outfield- CTS Wally Berger and Hank Leiber and First Bascman John Mccarthy on the block.
 One trade that may be consum- mated is the exchange of schu. macher, Berger and Leiber and cash for Van Lignle Mungo, fireball pitcher of the Brooklyn Dodgers. Terry, 1t is believed thinks that Mungo would he winning pitcher with e winning club
 The Giant centerfield problem is acute. During the World Series, Terry used Hank Leiber and Lou ChiozSa. Chiozza is e great fielder but c weak hitter. Leiber Is c poor fielder but he can hit.
 Mccarthy seems destined for the gate. When Sam Leslie hurt his wrist Mccarthy became tiIe regular first-baseman. Toward the last of the season his fielding and hitting were great but in the last week of the season and during the series he slumped again.
 The Yankees seemed certain to stand pat, with only one or two minor exceptions, If they can get another first-class pitcher, they may cast of some of the reserves.
 Manager Joe Mccarthy. who piloted the YNnks to their third championship, was reported ready for conference with Owner Jacob Ruppert concerning new contract. He was paid &a7.500 this season and some sources say that he will sign this week c new three-year contract at &42,000 annually. making him the highest paid manager.
