DINING OUT
The Far East Flavor
BY BARNARD K. LETTER

There also are curries from
India and Pakistan: seafoods
with an Oriental touch: short
ribs barbecued Korean style
(marinated In vinegar. ginger
and soya sauce) and dozens Of
other dishes-including steak
if you just can't stay away
from it.
The dessert list is simple.
Kumquats or creamy vanilla
ice cream sprinkled with grated
ginger and topped with a
cherry. There's also a coffee,
brandy, whipped cream creation
that is almost a meal in itself
A word of caution-go light
on lunch the day you plan to
dine at the Genghis Khan, the
portions are generous. In fact,
they are large enough to di-
vide between two persons so
If your companion orders a diff
ferent dish you each can have
an ample serving of both.

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: We
have a son IA years old. A
week ago he had a strange
spell. I shall discuss it as I
know it. I was not on the
scene when 1t happened.
David was walking with a
friend across the campus of
his school. Coming from
lunch on his way to the
library. Feeling fit and
happy, eating a chocolate
bar. In the middle of a SEN
tence he fell to the ground
passing out for an instant.
The little fellow with David
said his eyes were off center
and he had a queer look
about him when he fell.
My son said his first odd
feeling was q numbneSS
around the mouth and he
had a slight shake and that
was it. When he came to he
felt weak, rather shaken up.
He did not sweat or have
any elimination when it hap
pened.
We Immediately took him
to our family doctor. The
doctor said he was in per-
feet shape. He referred our
boy to a neurologist who
made a brain chart" :" He
also examined him carefully.
He, too, could find no evi-
dence of epilepsy, stroke or
anything else. He says that
he can't say what caused the
attack and that he may need
a spinal fluid examination
and an X-ray of his skull to
complete the study.
David has been normal,
healthy boy in every way for
all of his IA years. No sick
ness other than childhood
diseases. Do you think he
should have the spinal tap,
DR.. Steincrohn? And how
does the whole thing look
to you?-MrS. Y.

feel the examination will be
incomplete without the spinal
tap and the head X-rays,
better have them made.

the willow, the pin and the
scarlet oaks will be men
toned.
For many years the pin
oak was considered to be
second only to the scarlet oak
in rate of growth. They were
widely planted in lawns and
along the streets. However,
they have one characteristic
that many object to, the
lower limbs always hang
down whether it be a young
tree or an ancient monarch.
Some, also object to the
retention Of their leaves
through the winter. Now,
however, there seems to be a
disease attacking the pin
oaks planted along Washing
ton streets.
The willow oak has many
supporters in the Washington
area, and well it deserves
them, for the willow oak Is
a fairly fast grower, has a
fine trunk structure and
seemingly is free from the
Objectionable features of the
pin oak. The planting around
Chevy Chase Circle of willow
oaks is one of the finest in
the area, but there are many
streets lined with willow oaks
that are we'll worth noting.
The willow oak is a moderate
sized tree, to so feet, which
is a third smaller than the
pin oak, thus making it more
suitable for the modern one
story or story and a half
home.
The scarlet oak, noted as
being the fastest growing of
the oaks, is not as widely
planted as it should be. Ger
tainly the fall coloring is
outstanding. The growth
habit is in between that of
the willow and the pin oaks.
There seems to be only one
strike against the scarlet oak.
the difficulty of transplant
ing.
However, the District has
solved this problem satisfac-
torily and has comparatively
little trouble in planting
them.
There are some 5000 scar
let oaks in the city's street
II GIcc pldIlGuiSS.
Look for them, especially
in the fall when their leaves
turn a brilliant scarlet. The
leaves resemble those of the
pin oak, are deeply lobed-
Z to 9 lobes, and the ends of
the lobes sharply tipped with
2 to 3 bristle points. The pin
oak leaves are 5 to 9 lobed
and the tips are not as sharp
ly bristle-pointed. The willow
oak leaves are long and mar
