MAKING CAKE?

mrs. E. B. D.. SiIDer Spring.
I enjoy your column very
much and like all the variety,
travel, etc. I should like to
know If any one has the direc-
tions for making a cake in the
cast aluminium mold. I have
a mold like a lamb, but lost
the directions that came with
it and would like to make it
for my little girls birthday.
Can a regular cake recipe be
used or not? Her birthday Is
on the 29th.
Then ! would like to know
if anyone has had trouble with
a cotton twist rug rolling up
on the edges. Mine has curled
badly and is at a doorway. So
it is rather dangerous, as some
one might get a hard fall. I
pressed it with a steam iron
but 1t lasted only a short while.
Thanks in advance for any
help.

CREAM PIE:

MRS. A. o., Washington

fMTS. A. o., W1SntngtOnJ
If the cream filling for pies
Is too thin, merely add a little
more cornstarch than you
customarily have been using.
My favorite cream recipe calls
for 2 tablespoons of cornstarch
for 112 cups of milk.
To prepare a hot, spicy slaw,
use cabbage, onions, radishes,
garlic. celery, and green pep
per. Add some salt. Place in
jar and leave in refrigerator
overnight. When ready to
serve add a small amount of
Worcestershire sauce, trying
a small amount until desired
taste is obtained.
Another tasty sauce for
shredded cabbage is made by
using sour cream, sugar, and
vinegar, with a dash of garlic
salt.

REPLIES TO QUERIES.

tMTS. Ny, ATttHgtOHi
Mrs. P. R. L., Alexandria:
Wash your potatoes in cold
water and dry by placing in
a towel. Heat the fat to $50
degrees, place the potatoes in
the fryer, and allow them to
cook clear through, but take
them from the fat before they
begin to brown. Heat the fat
to $50 degrees and brown the
potatoes. For the first cook
ing may be we'll done ahead
and the potatoes held for the
final browning at dinner time.
Do not overload the fryer as
your results will not be as
good.
To the lady that inquired
about drapery rods. They may
be obtained at any of the
large department stores; /
order mine from a mail order
house. Rods are available for
almost any type of window or
use you have for them.
I would like some informa-
tion about removing a burn
from a table. We are refinish-
ing a solid oak table that has
been badly burned by an iron.
1t seems to be so deep that it
is impractical to remove it by
sanding. AS we want to have
a natural finish, we hesitate to
put bleach on the table. 1
will appreciate hearing from
anyone who has had a similar
experience.
I would like to add my voice
of thanks for RICH. It is really
a wonderful column. I only
find one fault-it isn't in the
paper on Saturday.

Actress Reports Mexico
Approves Debated Movie
By the Associated Press

MEXICO CITY. April 10
Mexican film star Rosaura Revu-
elias said today that a top gov
eminent official has given tenta-
tive approval for the completion
Of the controversial movie salt
Of the Earth" in Mexico.
The labor-sponsored film was
started near Silver City, N. Mex.
but ran into trouble when several
United States congressman called
it Communist-inspired. Miss Re-
vueltas stars in the picture.
The actress said Jose Lelo de
Larrea. head Of the governments
motion picture division, has read
the script and has told her it
contains nothing which would
bar its filming in this country.
Michael Wilson, one of the au-
thors, said an official request to
finish the picture here would be
made within two weeks.
Miss Revueltas, who was ar
rested by United States immigra-
ton authorities and later re-
turned to Mexico voluntarily
rather than face deportation
hearings, insists the film is not
communistic.

Blue Room Dancers
Commute Nightly
From New York

Darvas and Julia, new cham
pion commuters of show bust
ness, have had the Shoreham
Blue Room humming this week
as no supper club around here
has been since there were
Democrats. Their committing
championship is being won by a
demonstration that you can. too,
if you try hard enough, be in two
places at the same time.
Many an act doubles between
theater and night club, playing
an early show at the former and
a late show at the latter. Darvas
and Julia are the first act to
double between the Palace Thea
ter in New York and the Blue
Room in Washington. They ap-
pear on the Palace stage at 9:15,
rush to the airport with the
audience still applauding, board
q 1915 American Airlines plane,
arrive here in time for a mid
night show Otis scheduled at
11:45 PM at the Shoreham.
They return by air in time for a
matinee the following day at the
Palace.
What sort of a comment this
is on our modern civilization will
have to be left to some antho-
pologist, but the Darvas and
Julia ratio of time in transit to
time at work is high. They would
be, fully justified in demanding
portal to portal pay. with La
Guardia Field the portal.
For all of this travelling is done
to allow the dancers to appear
for approximately seven minutes
nightly on the Blue Room floor.
They are both graceful and
acrobatic and make every min
ute count, however. It's a death
defying act which increases in
pitch to highly spectacular fin
ish. It would almost be worth a
trip to New York if circum-
stances and contracts had not
made the nightly trip to Wash
ington necessary for the dance
duo.
For this two-week engage
ment, the Blue Room is back on
a two-shoWs-a- might schedule,
Singer Harry Snow and a dance
team appearing at dinner and
again just before Darvas and
Julia. Actor Snow of Mr.. Rob-
ertS," even without the accom-
panying terpsichorean fireworks,

He's a young man with fine
voice and a future in the singing

mated. He said Mr.. LAMA made
demands not covered by his con-

of starting dates, April Is or

Flora Porker's Beau Meets

and Mr.. Plohn were very young
back there at the turn Of the
century in San Francisco. a
courtly Kentucky boy gave a girl
her favorite flower.
There was night, he remem-
bered, when he walked a long
way through the streets Of San
Francisco looking for a flower
vendor who would sell a young
man with very little money a
bunch of violets for Is cents.
He found one, which was more
than he could do today, so years
later, when he was meeting the
daughter Of his most fondly re-
membered actress in q lifetime
in show business.
However, If Mr.. Plohn lacked
violets for Flora Parker's daugh-
ter, he came abundantly sup
piled with stories of their long
ago meeting in far-away Cali
fornia. There was the one. for
instance, about the day the
Telephone Girl" company de-
cided to spend a day at Tan
foran race track outside San
Francisco.
I'VE rode side-by-side on the
wooden bench along the side Of
the cable car" he remembered.
"And when we reached the
track, I did the thing that I
still recall as the most gauche
of my life. In my haste to get
to the ticket window to prevent
anyone else from buying Flora
Parker's ticket. I forgot to help
her off the car. But she was a
lady, and she stayed there until
I returned to help her. I've
never forgotten my embarrass-
ment."
There was no doubt about
that-he still blushed, so years
later, at the shamelessnesS of a
boy who forgot to help Flora
Parker off a street car
X X X
Another story that delighted
Miss De Haven, as told by her
mothers first beau. concerned
the experience of Mr.. Plohn as
the only advance agent who
ever got passed by the show he
was supposed to precede.
I'VE were playing one night
stands all over the northwest.
he remember, IT was ahead Of
the show, and supposed to keep
ahead of it all the way to st.
Paul, as any advance man would
be. I was doing all right, too,
until I landed one night in a
town that was suddenly pad
locked as the result of a small
pox outbreak.
Everyone was Quarantined,
me among them. The show, of
course, skipped the booking. I
eventually caught up with it in
st. Paul."
What happened thereafter,
Miss De Haven wanted to know,
to the teen-age actress and the
teen-age advance man who met
when they both were with 1.-THE
Telephone Girl" on their first
jobs.
oddly enough" Mr.. Plohn
told her, I'VE never met again
but I never forgot"
X \ X
In her dressing room at the
Capitol theater yesterday, Miss
De Haven got a small bouquet of
violets with a card that said they
were for Flora Parker's daugh-
ter"

It began with a telephone call
from Mr.. Plohn to The Stars

do you know Gloria De
Haven?" he asked.
NO" the drama department
was forced to admit, I'VE never
met her"
But you could arrange to
meet her." Mr.. Plohn suggested.
Yes" the drama department
thought it could. But why,
specif1cally?"
WELL" Mr.. Plohn explained,
"when I went into show bust
ness so years ago. her mother
was the ingenue in 1.-THE Tele-
phone Girl" company. We were
both in our teens, which drew
us together: that, and the fact
that she was very beautiful, and
charming and shy. And that it
was the first play for us both"
Mr.. Plohn stopped then. like
a man who had decided to leave
some memories unvoiced.
