Square Dance
Time

Saturday night really topped off
a full week of square dance activity
when the Libertinis (Mae and Lou)
of Baltimore, Maryland, came to
Milford to call for the Diamond
State Twirlers in the air-condition-

panied by twenty-eight of their
friends, arrived in a chartered bus
to add much pleasure to the even
ing's dance Three couples from
the Annapolis area, plus couple
from Dover, plus the local club
folks made a full hall, but everyone
seemed to have fun. Nine squares
were dancing at a time-making
the largest crowd yet for the Mil
ford club.
The couples (Dellingers, Dicker-
sons, Frys, Halls, Peppers) who
recently qualified as Knotheads
(by going hundred miles each
way to a dance up in Pennsylvania
were put through their initiation
during the evening by the Lamberts

Chicken Still Best
Buy In Meat Line
Continued from page one)


This year, the poultry industry
is marketing an unusually large
number of hens from egg-laying
fiocks that make excellent 8 to 5
pound roasters", McCauley ex-
plains. 1--WE call these 'Bro-Hens'.
They are a wonderful meal for
those who like a heavier bird to
roast in the fall in preference to
the lighter fryer or broiler."
Nationally, McCauley says, the
poultry industry is campaigning
housewives how much they can
save on the food budget by eating
up the large supply of poultry a
vailable at bargain prices. He urges
housewives of DelmarVa, where
the poultry industry is so import
ant to the economic well-being of
everyone, to set the pace in using
chicken by serving it to 4 times
a week to their families.
Chicken can be prepared in
so many different ways that its
taste never gets tiresome", Nc
Cauley notes. To prove his point,
he recommends trying the follow
ing two recipes. One is for BRO
Hen" roaster; the other, for
broiler-fryer. Both have been
Authenticated by experts.
