Pineapple Cake

Mrs. P.R.L., Camp Springs, Md.
Last week I was the lucky
purchaser of a pineapple
cake at a church bake sale
in Clinton, Md. The cake
was wonderful, and I would
love to have the recipe.
l have never tasted a more
delicious, moist, light cake!
1t had pineapple filling be-
tween the layers, and in a
circle on top. There was thin
white frosting on the sides,
and on the top outside the
pineapple circle. The cake
tasted as though it had pine
apple juice in it, too.
Who has this recipe?

A New Club?
Like all parents with grow
ing children in Middleburg's
rural area, the Arnolds and
Morgans, and many others,
are wondering whether or
not a club might not keep
their children, when grown,
nearer the boundaries of
Middleburg. The homegrown
children have no place to
gather to play tennis, swim
and yack, unless at private
homes. and it's q tolerant
parent who can welcome
them back day after day
after day.
There is a movement on
foot, smiled on by some and
frowned on by others, to
start a modest country club.
In the meantime, a tennis
group has banded together
to build two courts, not for
public use. but to be played
on by supporting persons.

Carving Meat
Made Easy
Here's How!

Carving meat really be-
comes quite a pleasure when
a few simple rules are en-
ployed.
1t takes time to become an
expert. so let practice, ex-
perience and a persistent ef-
fort on your part be the
teacher.
Meat should always be cut
across the grain, except when
carving steaks. Care of the
carving set is important q.
the knife should not become
dulled or nicked.
When carving, avoid
changing the angle of the
blade while making slices.
More uniform slices will re-
suit. Also plan the servings
before carving so that some
of the choice portions will be
divided equally among the
guests.
AS an example when
carving a porterhouse steak,
first the bone is removed,
then the steak is carved by
cutting across the full width
Of the steak, or with the
grain, In this way each
serving will include a piece of
the tenderloin and a piece Of
the large muscle. When ad-
ditional servings are needed
the flank is carved.

WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

Question: Many times lately
I have heard the expression
Push the panic button. Today
I even found it in a popular
comic strip. Apparently it's
used when things become-as
we used to say in the last war
"snafued," all fouled up. Can
you give some indication Of the
origin Of this expression?-
L. c. p. Chicago.
Answer: AS it happens this
phrase-which is rapidly be-
coming widely used, though not
in the meaning originally in
tended-was researched thor
oughly by 1t. Col. James l..
jackson, USAF. Writing In
American Speech magazine, he
reports: Hit the panic button,
meaning speaking or acting in
unnecessary haste or near
panic, is now used in a general
way to refer to any kind of pre-
cipitate action.
Discussion with pilots at the
Air Force Academy reveals at
least four buttons or switches
which may be referred to as the
panic button The one men,
TONED most often is the feather
ing button, which is punched In
Evening star., 1960-02-12

flight to stop the operation Of q
malfunctioning engine and turn
the prop blades edge-forward.
Another candidate is the switch
which shoots of the extin-
guisher materials designed to
put out an engine fire in fight.
"a third possibility is the
election seat trigger. Obviously,
when a man must jettison his
canopy in fight and eject him
self from his plane by use Of
the explosive charge stored
under his seat, he can be ex-
cused for calling the trigger the
panic button. And still a fourth
possible source is the button on
the panel Of the F-S4 which
salvoes the tip-tanks, either in
combat or if the pilot has
trouble on take-of.
BuC none OF these four
switches seems to have ia
thered the expression. Further
discussion with Air Force Of
ficers and airmen reveals that
the phrase to hit the panic
button was in use during the
Second World War, before any
Of the devices mentioned above
were introduced.
"The actual source seems
probably to have been the bell
system used in bombers B-17,
B-24) for emergency procedures
such as bailout and ditching.
In case Of fighter or flax dam
age so extensive that the
bomber had to be abandoned,
the pilot rang q 'prepare-to-
abandon signal and then q ring

meaning Jump The bell sys-

com was apt to be out If there
was extensive damage. The i'm
plications of the phrase seem to
have come from those few
