'.HE GROWING TOUCH
By MRS. ALEXANDER GEORGE
AP Feature Service Writer

Now is the time for the easy in
Iformality of porch serving, of re-
Ifreshments passed on the terrace
land supper eaten under trees on the
lawn
Suggestions for informal summer
refreshments include dainty sand
wiches, cakes or cookies and a
chilled beverage.
For summer luncheons a crisp
cold salad served in a nest of let
tuce or other green may be accom-
panied by biscuits, waters or sand
wiches and a fruit cup, sherbet OF
ice cream.
After the sun has started to sink
and the air gets cooler, slightly
heavier dishes may be served. Cold
sliced ham or tongue, baked veal
or ham loaf, large bowl of fish
vegetable, potato or fruit salad -
even fried chicken-will be welcome
Gelatin molds, too, are general
favorites. Care must be taken,
however, not to allow them to melt
in the sun.
Tomatoes stuffed with fish, diced
cucumbers, chopped ham or chopped
cabbage are tasty. A large bowl Of
well-seasoned cabbage salad may be
put at the side.
The hostess who hasn't time to
make hot biscuits or rolls { they
taste exceptionally good when
they're the only hot thing on the
menu may serve trays OF
nut, orange date or banana nut
breads. At the same time she may
pass tray of colorful relishes-rad-
ishes, tiny onions, celery, spiced APP
ricots, jellies and jams.
Frozen desserts are by far the
most popular in hot weather. Pine
apple sherbet is one of the most re-
freshing, while fruit ice cream is q
perfect partner for angel food Oh
sponge cake.

She wants to run for the United

She was won every race but one
of the many she has entered.
Like her fellow Miami University
co-eds, she washes out her stock
ings of an afternoon. She's afraid
of spiders, but not of mice.
She has liked to run as long as
she can remember. Her first meet
was county school affair. She took
firsts in the running broad jump
and in the SO and 75-yard dashes

AS Miami freshman, she re-
Gently broke four records in the
annual inter-class meet. She prob
ably would have shattered some
others but for a rule limiting her
to the four events Besides, she
ran in tennis shoes on slow track
In that meet Patty ran the CO.
yard 2-foot hurdles in 8.75 seconds
to better the national record of SO
set in. 1927 by Pearle Lammott OF

athletic officials submitted the tim

Healthy and weighing about 15C
pounds although she doesn't look
it, Patty gets her speed on the track
by inheritance.
Her father, August A. Fickes, en-
Dloyment manager for a Cleveland
industrial firm, was star in track
as youth. He once won nine firsts
in a county fair meet. Her broth

MAE WEST FILM
SHOWS STAR IN
BUCOLIC Scene
Siren Appears in Novel
Type of Film at
Capitol Here

It's new and different Mae West
who parades her way through Go
West Young Man. her latest COM
edy which begins tonight at the
Capitol Theatre And it's new
Mae West because the OUTRAGEOUS
beauty discovered years ago that
you've got to give EN- something
new to keep EN- interested.
Instead of the overstuffed over
dressed beauty of the nifty nine
ties" the role which made her the
worlds most celebrated movie ac-
tress, the new Mae is now a modern
young lady, movie actress this
time, wearing gowns which are
the last word from the modiste
shops of Paris.
Even the setting for her latest
story is different. Where she pre-
iously disported herself against the
gingerbread" grandeur of the nine
ties, she now does her stuff on a
typical American farm, right down
among the cows and chickens. 1t
lis on this farm that she finds love,
in the person of Randolph Scott,
a backwoods inventor.
1t is also here that Warren Will
liams, cast as her press agent,
breaks up the romance because Miss
Vests movie contract makes it
mandatory that she steer clear of
romance. There is another romance
with Lyle Talbot, and it is from
these three SWANS that Miss West
picks her man.
