Casserole, Green Salad
Is Basis for Easy Menu
Luncheon in New Mexico
A casserole, easy and delectable,
forms the backbone of today’s
menu. The dish is called Farm
Supper, but it is as welcome in the
urban home as in the rural one.
With the casserole, based around
pork chops, goes a green salad, a
fresh vegetable and a quick des
sert, bread and beverage. The main
dish and the dessert can be prepar
ed beforehand.

This “Farm Supper,” a pork chop casserole, forms the basis for
the menu today.
gether 1 package frozen or two
cups fresh cut kernel corn, % tea
spoon salt, Vi cup minced green
pepper, % cup chopped ripe olives.
Place a layer of this mixture in a
greased baking dish. Sprinkle with
cup coai'se cracker crumbs and
dot with margarine. Put on another
layer of the corn mixture and
sprinkle with another Vi cup crack
er crumbs. Dot with margarine.
Mix together 2 eggs, beaten, and %
cup milk. Pour this over the mix
ture in the casserole. Season 6
pork chops with salt and pepper
and arrange on top of this dish.
Bake in 325 degree (medium) oven
for 45 minutes. Make 6 servings.
For the salad, we like to use
everything green we can find in
the refrigerator—lettuce for the
base, mixed with chopped fresh
spinach, a diced carrot, avocado,
green pepper, tomato, tiny cauli
flower buds, and fresh green on
ions. These salad greens may be
varied according to what you have
on hand and to the family’s taste.
Toss vegetables together in a sal
ad bowl. Pour over this salad oil
(use salad oil first, it clings to the
vegetables that way), the juice of
Yz lemon, salt and pepper. Place in
refrigerator until serving time.
For the broccoli, use fresh or
fi-ozen. If fresh is selected, be care
ful that the stems arc young and
tender and the tops are not flower
ed out. Cook in water in covered

A&M Foods Group Visits
Famous Inns For Luncheons
By VIVIAN CASTLEBERRY
A group of College Station wom
en monthly dine in the country’s
most famous eating places.
They can’t really travel the dis
tance to these famous restaurants,
so they bring the restaurants here.
They are the Foods Group of the
A&M Women’s Social Club, and
once each month they meet in the
First Christian Church, where for
a time the atmosphere is that of
the finest dming places in the
country. If they want to have
lunch at Antoines, they simply
transform the church into Antoines
and serve a luncheon in keeping
with the bill-of-fare offered in
New Orleans. They did recently.
Visit Seven States
They also have dined in past
months at Bit of Sweden in Los
Angeles, at San Jacinto Inn in
Houston, at Williamsburg Inn in
Williamsburg, Virginia, at Toll
House Inn in Whitman, Mass., and
last week at La Placito in Albu
querque, New Mexico. Before the
year is over they will have travel
ed to Detroit, Mich., for luncheon
at Dearborn Inn and to Stillwater,
Minesota for a festive occasion at
Lowell Inn.
The Foods Group numbers about
60 members. It was reorganized
about six years ago as an interest
group from members of the A&M
Social Club. The club got its
start about the mid-1930’s, but was
disorganized during the war.
Its present officers are Mrs.
Raymond Reiser, president; Mrs.
R. F. Bruckhart, vice president and
program chairman; Mrs. Royce Le-
Roy, secretary-treasurer; Mrs. Ray
Oden, reporter, and Mrs. W. F.
Adams, membership chairman.
Work! Work! Work!
While the Foods Group is a lot
of fun, any one of its members will
tell you that it is also a lot of
work, for club members prepare
the food and serve it, do the dec
orating for each luncheon, and at
tend all the details of a luncheon
for 60 people.
Each club member is on one
committee per year to plan and ex
ecute these luncheons.
Theme for the programs this
year has been Famous Inns in the
United States. Previously the
group has studied foreign foods,
party fare and a la carte, among
other things. Next year they will
have a new theme and will con
centrate on other subjects. But al
ways they will be mainly interested
in food.
Often in preparing these meals,
the ladies are able to use the actual
recipee from the inns which they
are studying. Sometimes the res-

It’s GREATER
Than You Think!
FOR EASTER, take home your strong enthusiasm for
Texas A&M.
BRING BACK a promise, from a^high school senior who
will be graduated this June, to enroll in A & M this
Summer or next Fall.
THAT’S ONE of the finest things you can do toward
helping New Students, Former Students, A&M and
yourself.
taurants will not divulge their food
secrets and on these occasion the
members copy the menus and rec
ipes as nearly as possible.
At each club meeting one of the
members of the committee tells
something about the inn at which
that day’s luncheon is served.
“Very often,” says Mrs. Reiser,
“we are fortunate enough to have
a lady with us who either has
lived near the restaurant, or has
dined there. On such occasions
we are able to get a first-hand
report of the restaurant.”
Wives, Daughters
Ready For Easter
By VIVIAN CASTLEBERRY
Battalion Women’s Editor
As these words get jotted out your way, students, their
wives, profs and their wives and all other College folk are
winding up what business they can before Spring holidays..
This afternoon when five o’clock whistles blow, cars will head
out from all directions homeward bound.
Come Sunday morning the EASTER PARADE will see.
beside those uniforms dolls in all colors of the rainbow as
Texas Aggies and their wives and dates head churchward.
Douthitt and Elaine Lester are too far away to be going home
for Easter, but they’ll put a doll Of their own in the Parade when
cherubic curly-haired Suzzanne Lester comes out In her pink dotted
swiss. Elaine will be the latest word in Spring fashion in navy and
white . . . Betty and Aaron Campbell will see Easter morning dawn in
Hillsboro, and later Betty will make the Easter parade in a two-piec<*
brown dress with brown and white spectators and other accessories
of crisp chalk white.
It will be Houston on Friday for the Darrow Hoopers
where Darrow will participate in a track meet. After the
sporting event, they’ll go to Fort Worth to their homes. There
tiny brunette Jeannine will take the spotlight front and center
in a navy blue dress with pink accessories and a confection of
a hat done of pink flowers . . . Marth.| and Ray Falke will
be visiting Ray’s folks in Temple for the weekend, and
Martha plans to join the church crowd in her new mauve suit
with black accessories.
Tall model-type Marilyn Gower and her husband, Bobby, will be
Spring vacationing in Port Arthur. On Sunday Marilyn will make
the Easter parade in a pink moire taffeta suit with all-lavendar acces
sories. . . . Thelma and Elmer Elkins will spend Easter in Big D and
on Sunday Mrs. E. will be attired in a pink linen suit with navy blue
accessories. Her tiny navy hat will feature a double veil with velvet
flowers.
Judy and Karen Davis will steal the Easter show from
Peggy, their mom, when they go out in their pretty dotted
swiss hoop skirt dresses. Karen’s is yellow and Judy’s is
blue. ... As soon as classes and work is over today Mary and n

Dr. Wiley Is
Main Speaker
At a luncheon meeting Saturday
members of the local AAUW and

rey Nell Wiley, head of the TSCW
English department speak on “A
Question of Time.”
The meeting marked the annual

highest status in this country.
She said that in years 'of peace
women have lost much of their
