Battalion Editorials Page 2 THURSDAY, JANUARY 28, 1954 Turn on Your Porch Light To AM March of Dimes Tomorrow night marching mothers will be visiting every College Station home that has a light burning on the porch. They will be there to pick up your contribution for the March of Dimes. This year, more than ever, the March of Dimes needs your help, because this year America can hope for a victory against the dread crippler, polio. If enough funds become available, select ed groups of children throughout the nation will be innoculated with an experimental po lio vaccine. If the vaccine is successful, we will have won the fight to protect our child ren against the disease. Today every modern form of treatment for infantile paralysis is made available to many by the March of Dimes, but treatment is not enough. Even with all the care doc tors and therapists can give, there is still the suffering and the long, slow recovery. But with a polio preventative, which is what this year’s March is hoping for, all the suffering and all the crippling can be ended. Tuesday night at a dance, generous res idents contributed $342.22 to the polio fund. This was the largest amount ever collected during the five years these benefit dances have been held. We hope that tomorrow night the march ing mothers will receive a record amount from Mr. and Mrs. College Station.

I declined. Cereal Bread 6 Large Nabisco Shredded Wheat biscuits 2 Cups boiling water 2 Cups milk, scalded if raAV, heated if pasteurized 2 Tablespoons bacon fat ts Cup dark syrup 4 Teaspoons salt 1 Package granulated yeast dissolved in Vi cup lukewarm Avatcr Crush biscuits with rolling pin.

Cool to luke warm; add dissolved yeast, and mix in 6 to 8 cups of all purpose flour, mixing until a very stiff dough rolls up in the bowl. Turn dough out on large Avell floured board and knead until smooth and eastic. The dough has a tendency to be sticky, so Avork in flour until dough ceases to stick to the hands. Put in well-greased boAvl, cover AAdth damp cloth, let rise until double in bulk, turn out on board, knead a few minutes, let rise again until double in bulk. Knead doAvn, shape in loaves.

Cool loaves on racks and lightly grease crusts Avhile warm; Cool thor oughly before cutting. After the dough rises once, it may be kept in the refrigerator. My favorite food platter for church suppers and other informal occasions is egg salad, marinated shrimp, baked ham and tomato Avedges. Either the shrimp or the ham may be omitted, but when A\’e “splurge” Ave serve both.
