Chicken Spaghetti
I find this recipe very helpful for “expected” guests as
it may be prepared in advance and is as good, if not better,
when “warmed over.”
4 or 5 pound hen
1 bay leaf
4 pieces celery
3 clove garlic
Salt and pepper
1 onion, large
1 can pimiento, 4 ounces
1 bell pepper, large
2 boxes spagetti
2 cans mushroom soup
Bod chicken with bay leaf, celery, garlic, salt and pepper until
tender. Cut chicken in small pieces. Cook chicken with onion, pimientos
and bell pepper in small amount of shortening. Do not brown. Boil the
spagetti in the chicken stock, adding more water if needed. Drain
spagetti and add to other ingredients with the mushroom soup. One
can of mushroom soup may be sufficient, according to taste.
If “warmed-over” an additional can of mushroom soup is needed.
Add Worcestershire sauce to taste and serve with Parmesan cheese.
The chicken spagetti can be served with a sweet-pickle coleslaw
and hot rolls.

My family likes a “little” cake and a “lot” of icing, so I bake the
above cake in four layers and frost with the following:

Soften cream cheese with lemon juice, add lemon peel and sugar.
Add cream if needed and beat until spreading consistency.

Add salt to egg whites; beat to stiff foam. Add sugar sifted with
flour, one tablespoon at a time. Continue beating until very stiff. Fold
in nuts, dates, and vanilla. Drop from teaspoon onto cooky sheet cover
ed with unwaxed paper; shape in fingers. Bake in slow oven, 300 de
grees, 30 minutes. Makes two dozen.

1 % cups oats, rolled
1 % cups nuts or fruit

Battalion jl|| v
Set a new record!
During the month of April, The Battalion had a greater
advertising lineage than for any previous April in its
history.
This only goes to show that more and more Brazos County
firms are finding that The Battalion is a good place to
invest their advertising dollar.
And No Wonder!
The Battalion has the largest circulation of any news
paper within a 40-mile radius, and the advertising rates
are the lowest in the area.

The Battalion is delivered to every home in College Station
in addition to the students on the Texas A&M campus
