Good Things to Eat When Outdoors
By Violet Faulkner
Food Editor

IN ROCK CREEK PARK,
or in your own back yard,
picnics are part and parcel
of summertime. Yours may.
be the kind of family that
enjoys cooking the entire
meal over an open fire, or
you may have a lazy gang
that prefers bringing the
cooked food from home and
eating it under a shady tree.
Whatever the site and
whatever the meal, food al
ways tastes better when
eaten in the open, so make
allowances for generous por-
tions. And there's nothing
on earth like food cooked
over an open fire to bring
out half a dozen amateur
chefs in the crowd. They all
want to get into the act, even
though you're no mean chef
in your own right.
A friend of ours solved this
problem of too many cooks
by lining up a variety of sea-
sonings and condiments, pro-
viding a half broiler for each
guest and letting everybody
cook their own. It worked
beautifully and produced
some amazing results.
Even the best of plans go
awry at times when the
weatherman fails to cooper
ate. If there's doubt in your
mind as to the state of the
weather, plan a menu that
will taste just as good in the
recreation room or on the

side porch as in the wide
open spaces. Here's where
the "pack-and-carry" type
of picnic meal stands you in
good stead. One menu we
suggest for this sort of out
door meal is a big casserole
of scalloped potatoes with
cheese, chicken salad, but
Evening star., 1952-05-25

tered rolls, chocolate pie and
coffee in a thermoS.
Some people like to cook
the food at home and reheat
it over a portable grill. For
this, we suggest a spicy pork
barbecue over cornbread
squares. Toast the squares
while the pork mixture is

heating; add a kidney bean
salad, fresh fruit, cookies
and coffee, and your picnic
will satisfy the heartiest Of
appetites.

few measures OF local interest
which an appointive Governor
wants to impose upon the
people are liable to be defeat
ed. The Governor would be
foolish not to name to such a
board persons who are commit
ted IN advance to supporting
his policies and views.
This attempt will be VII
gorously opposed by the
people. It would result in less,
rather than more self-govern-
ment for the people, who at
least now exercise control BY
the power Of their ballot, over
members of the local legisla-

such control over the proposed

When Congress gets around
to enacting q new organic act
for the Virgin Islands it will
most certainly provide for a
single legislature with specifi-
ed annual sessions. Although
many persons in both munich
palities view this development
with considerable skepticism,
there is absolutely no doubt
that this provision will be
written into our new constitu-
ton.
There IS also agreement
that a single legislature meet
ing sixty or ninety days each
year cannot give attention to
the multiplicity Of local pro-
blems which will crop up
from time to time, and which
will require some form of le-
gislative treatment. The Legis
lative Assembly itself has sug
gested that 4 committee elect
ed by it and composed Of re-
representatives. from each mum
cipality be designated to give
advice to the Governor and
pass upon local matters in the
respective municipalities,
much in the same manner as
the Municipal Committees
now act) during the periods
when the single legislature is
not III session.
The Governor who has
been unable to get many Of
his proposals through the le-
gislature does not look with
favor upon the establishment
of such q committee. TO per-
form the task Of passing upon
purey local matters, the Gov
ernor recommends the creaz
tionl of an honorary board IF
commissioners. He does not
suggest how this board should
be selected, but obviously AZ
would favor appointment Of
members By The Governor.

planning. They are one Of our
high energy foods which readi-
~ fit into the role Of the
starchy or carbohydrate We
getable. When we think Of the
water content of the banana as
compared with that Of an
orange or grapefruit, it be-
comes apparent that the ba-
mana is drier and more
concentrated in energy ma
terials. This conception gives
one some understanding Of the
calorie or ~fattening value Of
the cooking banana. Although
we usually indulge in high ca
lorie foods, both starchy and
sweet, our bodies have d de-
finite caloric requirement
which makes carbohydrate
foods just as important as pro-
tein, vitamins and minerals.
E
Cooking bananas in menu
planning carry the same be-
neficial properties that other
fruits bring to health. They
contribute appreciable
amounts Of phosphorus and
vitamip G to aid in bone and
teeth building. They are q
small but constant source Of
vitamin A which improves
growth, development and
vigor. And surprisingly, cook
ing bananas are superior to
eating bananas as a source Of
iron for blood building While
the roughage and pectin CON
tent Of the banana are small,
they are useful in givin bulk
to the lower intestinal tract.
The pectin especially has the
property Of absorbing water
and swelling This aids in
good elimination for young
and old alike.
Thus, our practice Of using
this group Of bananas in every
day eating IS a healthy as well
as 4 commendable custom.

Tinbo|es Easy Way
to Use LeftOvers

Apparently, judging from the
number of inquiries that come in
the mail, many young and mex
perienced housekeepers are foored
by the term "timbale." They do
not know ever what it means
let alone how to make them! And,
as a matter of fact, the timbale
has always masqueraded as very
fancy dish, when actually it is
very simple. AS that. wonderful
epicure and cookbook compiler,
Mrs. Irma Rombauer. puts it, 1.-THE
timbale is first cousin to the re-
liable custard and to the f1ighty
souf1e. AS it combines the good
qualities Of both, it is a valuable
member of the egg dish family"
If you wish to be fancy. you can
buy special timbale molds at the
better-class housewares shops. But
for ordinary purposes, plain in
dividual custard cups will do beau
tifully.
AS a disguise for leftover
foods, the timbale knows no peer.

home from fresh, sweet cream.
Here's how: Shake a bottle Of
sweet cream thoroughly and pour
out about half of it. Shake a
bottle Of buttermilk the same.
For each pint of cream to be
soured, add about teaspoons of
the buttermilk to the cream in the
bottle. Four back enough cream
to fill the bottle to within three
fourths of an inch of the top.
Place a id or stopper on the bottle
and shake we'll. Set the bottle of
cream in a warm place Go to IS
degrees F. for "a hours. The
cream is then ready for use but it
will improve in body if stored in a
refrigerator for a day. Use it as a
garnish for soups, in salad dress
ings, over vegetables, etc. E. Mad

A milk-and- honey bread made

it's name from two of it's three

The third ingredient is unbleached

Mr.. William P. Barry, superin-

Plastic Wrap
Spring and the season when
the children like to pack a sand
wich and be off for a day at the
zoo. You'll want those sand
wiches to keep moist and fresh
until they're eaten and one way to
do it is to wrap them in a mois-
.ture-proof wrap that is self
sealing. In spite of it's fragile
looking transparency, the wrap is
sturdy and durable. In fact, can
be used over and over again. It's
ideal for wrapping meats, cheese,
fruits or vegetables that you want
to keep free from odors. It is so
'pliable it clings nicely to any
rounded or unusual shaped sur
face. Try a strip of it across your
eyes when you're peeling onions
If the strong odor bothers you. It
will cling to your forehead and
prevent watery eyes. Since this
wrap first appeared on the market
there has been a marked improve
ment in the packaging. A new
cutting edge tears off the desired
length neatly and easily.

Slap Down Proposal
To Gust GabrieIson
BY q stoff corrs.ponden, Of The s,or

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 18.-
The Republican National Commit
tee, at its first meeting yesterday,
slapped down a proposal Of Repre-
sentative George Meader OF Mich
igan, the committee chairman,
Guy George Gabrielson. be re-
moved.
| Instead. the committee gave Mr..
Gabrielson a vote Of confidence.
Only Michigan committee mem
bers refused to join in the conf
|dence vote.
Mr.. Meader sent letters to all
members and a telegram to the
committee secretary, suggesting
that MIR. Gabrielson's activities in
obtaining a Reconstruction FL
nance Corp. loan for a manufac-
turing company, of which he was
general counsel and later presi-
dent. disqualified him for National
Committee Craftsmanship. j.
Before his election to the House
IN 1850, Mr.. Meader was an attor-
ney employed by the Senate Full
bright Committee which investi-
gated use of political influence and
favoritism to obtain RFC loans.
Democratic Chairman Resigned.
William M. Boyle, jr., former
Democratic national chairman,
came under fire because Of his
activities In obtaining RFC loans
and finally resigned. giving as
his reason Ill health. In many
quarters, however, it was believed
he was forced out.
Mr.. Meader insisted the Repub-
lican Party could not afford to
keep Mr.. Gabrielson on as ma
tional chairman.
Mr.. Gabrielson, leaving the
chair, proposed that the Meader
letter be read to the committee.
This was blocked by the adoption
OF a motion by Mrs, Daniel j.
Schneider. national committee
woman for Colorado that the let
ter be not read but filed. She
was backed by Ralph Cake of
Oergon who moved that q vote
OF confidence be given Chairman
Gabrielson.
National Committeeman Arthur
e. Summerf1eld and National Com
mitteewoman Mrs. Rae c. Hooker,
both Of Michigan, refused to Join
in the confidence vote.
Wants to Win Election.
Mr.. Summerfield, addressing the
committee, said Mr.. Gabrielson
should decide himself whether it
was to the advantage of the party
for him to remain as national
chairman.
He added that he, Mr.. Summer
field, wanted to win the coming
election. While he was sorry that
the Meader letter had come up, he
said he had himself voted against
the vote Of confidence.
Mr.. Meader in his letter called
attention to the demands made by
a number Of Republican members
Of Congress that Mr.. Gabrielson
quit the craftsmanship. Mr.. Sum
merfeld said later he had known
Of the RFC activities of Mr.. Cab
rielson and had opposed the selec-
tion of Mr.. Gabrielson for national
chairman.
From the action Of the commit
tee yesterday. it is clear that Mr..
Gabrielson will hold on as CHAIR
man at least until the Republican
National Convention nominates q
presidential candidate In July and
the candidate picks his own. ma
tional chairman to run the cam
paign.
