was no stadium provided for the
Colored High School. Sometimes,
I told him, they can barrow a

the near future, its no dice, and
there's nowhere to play. He look

The Chef Saws

Most people are violent tripe fans
or else they simply can't abide 1t.
The fans range from the interna-
tional gourmets to the plainest
workman who relishes it for its
sturdy qualities. Escofier devotes
several pages to it and Dickens
mentions "a dish of tripe" in many
of his works dealing with the poor
of London.
Tripe, per Sc, is the inner
muscular lining Of the stomach Of
meat animals. The quality and
price depend upon which animal
and from which section of the
stomach the piece is taken. Beef
tripe proper comprises the paunch
(flrst stomach) the honey-comb bag
Second stomach), the maniplies
third stomach) and the reed real
stomach).
The finest of the lot Is the honey
comb bag, which is used always for
the famous dish of "tripes a Ia
Mode de Caen" This epicurean
delight, as made In France, often
proves too much for the more hur-
ried American cook, for 1t takes
infinite preparation and hours and
hours Of cooking. Seasoning is a
matter Of great care-an OK foot
must be used to bring the broth to
the proper consistency. as calves

cook away too quickly: special pot

can give you Escofier's own
recipe for it, if you are curious and
went it in your files. Send me a
letter, in care of The Evening Star,
inclosing a stamped, self addressed
envelope with your request, and I'll
mail it to you.
Here is a Spanish tripe that I
think you will find delightful and
much easier to prepare:
Wash a pound Of honeycomb tripe
several times. (Be sure 1t Is fresh
when you buy it, Cut it into strips
and cover these with cold water.
Bring to a boil and season with "
teaspoon salt. (Go easy on salt, as
some butchers use a lot in prepar-
ing the tripe) Cover the kettle
and simmer the tripe for two hours.
At the end of that time toss in
a sliced Glove Of garlic, together
with u cup or more of chopped
onion. cup Of chopped celery. pars-
ley and green pepper, mixed, and 6
peppercorns. Add about cup of
tomato puree. little cayenne and
a dash of tabasco sauce. Simmer
the tripe for an hour longer, until
it is tender. adding for the last Is

ham, n cup of sliced mushrooms
and u cup of sliced olives.

Of the holiday in the kitchen. If

Get your picnic basket out early,

need for eating In the great OUT

and cups, napkins, matches, q sharp
knife and, above all, don't forget a
good, reliable can opener. Have
plenty of ready-to-eat foods on
hand, too, Just in case you decide
to "pick up and 60" at the last
minute.
Do your baking the quick-easy
mix way and have more time for
fun and relaxation. The cake and
gingerbread mixes do for desserts
and the hot roll mix makes wonder

Take an assortment OF cheese,
crackers and soft drinks to top OIL
your picnic lunch. Tuck in a jar
Of powdered coffee for the coffee
drinkers in the crowd, it's much
easier and simpler to handle.
As far as fresh produce Is con-
cerned this week there are no out
standing values. There seems to be
good supply of everything and
the prices are running about the
same as a week ago. Watermelons
are extremely plentiful; incident
ally, there's a good idea for dessert
for your family picnic. Who
doesn't go for a wedge of icy-cold,
juicy watermelon? The prices are
right this week, too. Blackberries
and blueberries are q tiny bit lower
than reported last week, they're still
in the luxury class however. To-
matoes, radishes, corn-on- the cob,
celery, carrots, oranges and apples
are all good items to include in pic
mic fare; there is little If any
every one to handle.
Over a holiday you're usually in
the mood for little jaunt in the
family bus, stopping off somewhere
en- route for lunch or dinner as a
special treat. I happened on a new
spot the other night that I think you
might like. The food Is tops, the
hostess charming and the atmos-
phere is homelike and pleasant.
Located in one of the historic old
houses in nearby Alexandra, the
house Is filled with treasures the
present owner has collected from all
over England, the continent, India,
China and other far-away places.
Just to give you glimpse of some of
the objects dart: There are pieces
of Royal Copenhagen, Holland Delft
tulip vases, old Sheffield biscuit
boxes, Bristol glass, fruitwood tables,
Queen Anne desks, inlaid Chinese
Chippendale tables, old English
coach and hunt prints, Lord Byron
spoons, silver services and many,
many more. Some, not all, of these
lovely pieces are for sale. So-if
you enjoy dining in quiet, refined
surroundings where the service is
unhurried but efficient, you will en-
Joy this delightful place. Dependent
on the weather, of course, they hope
to have their lovely garden open
over the holiday week end. If you
want to know where to find this spot,
