How to Make
A Tea Cory

MAKE AN OLD-fashioned tea coy.
A coy is a warm covering for a tea
pot, used to keep the tea hot-frOm the
first cup to the very last. You can knit
one or crochet one, whichever way
your talents lean. Directions for max
ing two attractive versions are avail
able.
No one knows just how old is this
old-fashioned custom of dressing up a
teapot with cozy, but everyone agrees
that cozies were never so sensible as
they are today. The predecessors of
the knitted and crocheted cozies shown
here looked very much like soft cush-
iony chair backs, or puffy sofa pillows.
They were made of everything from
plushy velvet to brocaded satin and
were just as hard to clean as you'd
think. These olden cozies covered the
entire pot including handle and spout.
To pour the tea, the coy was raised,
which at the same time raised the
problem-where to put the cozyl
The crocheted and knitted cozies de-
scribed in the instructions fit snugly
over the pot, leaving the handle and
spout exposed The crocheted coy is
completely washable, and so is the
knitted one, provided the flower used
for decoration is made Of new wash
able felt.

addressed envelope to Amy Martin,

February Meet
BY a star stan Correspondent

BALTIMORE, Dec. Is. = AL
though the Maryland Racing
Commission was talking about
nothing but the 1857 racing
dates at Pimlico today, D. Eldred
Rinehart, commission chairman,
refused to express any opinion
on his boards reaction to the
mile tracks proposal that next
years season start on Febru-
airy II.
Rinehart said that his fellow
commissioners would reserve all
statements on the 1857 date
schedule until the formal hear
ing set in the commissions
downtown Offices at 1890 am.
Tuesday.
The commission chairman
added that his group has had a
letter from Pimlico, Laurel and
Bowie in which the three major
tracks suggested a date schedule
to be adopted for five years.
The tracks have agreed that
Bowie would open the season this
winter with a 41-day meeting
beginning February IL. a full
month earlier than any opening
ever before attempted in Mary
land. Laurel and Pimlico woulc
follow with shorter meetings.

March 10 when a snowStorm
forced the Southern Maryland
track to shut down for one pro-

any dates for 1857.
