BEEF sTRoGANOFF;
CRAB NORFOLK.
From E. B. ~, Washingto1.)
have not before been prompted
to make any suggestions to the
RICH, as I got more from 1t than
I could contribute, but today
must protest.
To Mrs. w. M. B. of Washington:
Don't, beg of you, try beef strog-
anoff without white wine in it. My
recipe reads as follows: Slice ]
pound of fine tenderloin Of beef
in paper-thin strips about 2 inches
long. Put 4 ounces ~ pound OF
butter in q skillet, and when 1t
begins to foam boil" the thin
strips of meat in it for about 3
minutes. Salt and pepper, then
add 3 or 4 shallots that have
been finely chopped. Mix well with
the meat, then remove the meat
from skillet. Add 2 ounces Of dry
white wine. (please, please don't
use cooking sherry-choose q good
domestic Chablis, Riesling or sau-
terne) and 1 teaspoonful of Escof-
fer sauce Robert If available or
substitute Worcestershire sauce.
Blend well, then add half q cup
of sour cream, stir, and as soon as
the sauce Is very hot, not boiling,
pour over the meat on the platter
and serve. This serves four. q
often use this way Of using left
over steak which has been cooked
rare, but it is not true beef
Stroganoff unless the new, tender
loin Is used.)
To 1t. Col. w. NJ, Chevy Chase:
My husband, also an Army oficer,
pestered me until figured out a
way to concoct Crabfiake Norfolk
and this is the way I do it. I have
never used ham in it, but said
husband says this is because ! am
an ignorant Yankee.
Into 4 ounces ~ pound butter,
melted, mince Glove of garlic as
finely as possible. Use l pound
of cooked crabfiake (please don't
use canned) and stir into the
melted butter and saute until yel-
low. Add dash of Worcestershire
sauce and stir again. When crab
flake is thoroughly hot run under
q broiler flame until 1t crisps on
top. Salt and grind fresh black
pepper over it and serve in the
same dish. q use small glass
frying PAM We find this serves
two generously and have only hot
rolls, q tossed green salad and
coffee with it.
I spent year in the South
Pacific with the WAC, eating c.
rations and powdered eggs, 30 now
my hobby is cooking and eating!

SNAILS?
From Mrs. C. A. H., Vienna, Va.j
Can any one give a tried-and-
true method of getting rid of these
Shiny, snaky- looking snails? They
come in through the tiniest space.
We've plugged q crack near thel
pack door, but wondered If there
vas any way Of ridding the yard OIL

from a T formation that had speed,
precision and power, Southern Uni
versity of Baton Rouge, La, reeled
off 10 touchdowns yesterday to whip
favored Tuskegee Institute of Ala

touchdowns were called back be-
cause of penalties. About 5000 fans

The decision victory which South
ern u, champion OF the South
western Negro College Conference,
scored over its opponents OF the
Southeastern Negro Conference, was
a big upset. In the regular season
the Tuskegee gridders lost only to
Florida A. and NJ, and no opponent
scored more than two touchdoWns
against them.

A fitting memorial to Charles
Hart, former Eastern High School
principal who died Christmas eve
would be a first-class coliseum OF
gymnasium for high school ath-
letics. Such building, withsa large
floor space and seating capacity is
an urgent need here and It would
be an excellent memorial to a man
who. through his entire carer as
teacher and principal, firmly stood
for athletics and physical educa-
ton as an important part IN the de-
velopment of youth.
Mr.. Hart was outstanding IN otner
fields of education also, ana lts
possible that the next high school
built here will be named for him.
But lacking that, q large, modern
coliseum-not a bandbox such as
are the present high school gyms
would be a perfect memorial to him.
Such a move is not without prece-
dent. The present stadium at Cen
tral High School is named in honor
of the late Emory NJ. Wilson. former
Central principal. who. ike Mr.
Hart. played an important part IN
the early days of the development
of interhigh athletic competition
Mr.. Hart often has been called the
father of high school athletics IN
washington. AS a representative OF
the old Business High School he was
one of the signers of the original
list of eligibility rules drawn up in
1899. and ever since had been al
the forefront in supporting ath-
letics. Occasionally he came into
disagreement with other school ON
cials as he campaigned for more
contests. better equipment, more
recognition and out-of town trips
for teams.
He lived to see the day, though,
when sports had an important place
in the school system and ne had IN
fected others with his love OF attn
letics. Three high school princl-
pals today are former assistants OF
MIR. Hart-John Paul Collins at
Eastern. Thomas j. Holmes at Will
son and N. A. Danowsky at Western
and these three men are the most
sports minded officials in the school
system.

Big School Gym Is Suggested
AS Memorial to Charles Hart
By George Huber

Mr.. Hart loved athletics not only
for the games sake but for what it
did for the development of boys. A
tough boy was challenge to him,
especially if that lad was an ath-
lete. Mr.. Hart believed that If a
boy was a good athlete he could
succeed in anything else If he put
out the effort. A winner in sports
can be a winner in anything, was
the way he frequently put it.
Mr.. Collins, his successor as East
ern High principal, summed up Mr..
Hart's philosophy in all lines OF
endeavor yesterday when he said:

ested in second place"
