When it's barbecued
steaks, Ben Projan is
tops. Here's the recipe
for his famous marinade
PHOENIX, ARIZ.
ASK for the name of the best
N cook in Phoenix, Ariz., and
the answer comes, Ben Projan -
that is, when broiling a steak" 1t
isn't so much his method of broil-
ing = it's his steak marinade
which has the town talking.
Barbecue cooking is the Projan
avocation. Ben takes to the barbe-
cue as some men to golf, as others
to sailing. To meet this man Pro-
jan, l was directed to Hanny's
Men and Women's Clothing Store,
an imposing modernistic air-con-
ditioned emporium. Up one flight
to the balcony, a hello to an eff
cient young secretary, then into
an inner sanctum, mahogany-pan-
eled, to meet the stores president.
I'm a Sunday cook" Ben
Projan announced. II like to in
vite friends for Sunday steak
supper - nothing like steak to fill
the hole of hunger.
Tell the Butcher
SOMETIMES Ben Projan switches
from steak to roast, yes, barbe--
cued. Most of the roasts, he told
me, taste better when "cued" than
when they come from the OVEN -
superior in the same way that
steaks and chops grilled over open
coalsare superior to kitchen-broiled
meats. Just tell the butcher you
want roast for spit cooking and
he will do up a leg of lamb or a
sirloin of beef or the loin of pork -
lacing the meat together with a
cord to keep it thick and juicy.
you must come out to my
place and see the barbecue set

When you want really
fast relief from ordinary
headache, neuritic or

tablets. One reason they bring
you relief with amazing speed is
that they start disintegrating
almost instantly you take them.
Timed by stopwatch, they're

But fast relief isn't the only
reason why it pays to use Bayer

fact that you can take it with

Everyone likes to think that
he wants someone else to work
out his problems, do his worrying
and warn him which way to turn
in the dark. But deep down, he
doesn't mean it. The difference
between a man and a mouse is
that a man has a mind and a
conscience. If he fails to use them,
he finds himself sooner or later in

Paulette's Cleopatra would be
something to shake the summer

more definite.
Brian Aherne will be here in

And Edward Everett Horton,
owner of one of the great fan
followers along the summer cir

repeat himself, although he
probably could in "Springtime for
Henry" His new. play will be an
old play. "On Approval" a
whacky comedy.

it held the local long-run movie
record here. IA weeks at the Little
Theater. It held it, however, only
until such potent items as Ham
let" RED Shoes" and "All the
Kings Men" came along. After
all, what could a comedy do
against such as these?
Basil Rathbone also is an Olney
boxing. His THE Heiress" gave
the theater its best week of drama
last summer. And also one of its
finest weeks at the boxoffice.
Rathbone is a great summer the
ater drawing card, and will be
even if several more weeks elapse
before he chooses the play in
which he will appear here.
Sherlock Holmes" which has
become radio career for the
tall, sparse English actor. is q
possibility.
Also tentative, but a reasonable
prospect, is a straight-from-
Broadway production, THE Devils
Disciple" which is now one OF
New York's brightest hits.
Evans wants to come to Wash
ington. The only barrier to his
coming in his current Shaw COM
edy is that it shall 60 on being
so popular in New York that it
will play through the summer.
The Olney management has no
ill-will toward New York, but it
thinks maybe the city is too hot
for Shawian wit. The air-cooled
country. on the other hand, is
ideal. That's the way Skinner
feels, at any rate.
