By LOLLIE PENBERTHY
(The Penberthys—Walter and Lollie—are well-known and popular
members of the A&M “family.” Mr. Penberthy, head of the depart
ment of student activities, came to the campus in 1926 as assistant pro
fessor of physical education. He( became head of that department in
1937, dean of men in 1947, and.assumed his present position in 1954.
(The Penberthys have three children—Wally, a fourth-year stu
dent in petroleum' geology at A&M; Jean, a junior home economics
major at Texas University, and Beth, who is in the junior class at
Stephens College in Columbia, Mo. Mr. and Mrs. Penberthy have
made their home in Bryan since 1940. They reside at 603 Hensel
Drive.)
ORANGE RAISIN CAKE
% cup shortening 2 cups flour
1 cup sugar 1 teaspoon soda
2 eggs 1 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
Cream shortening and sugar, then add whole eggs. Beat well.
Add flour and buttermilk, to which soda has been added, alternately.
Squeeze juice from 1 orange and save. Grind remainder with 1 cup
raisins, and add to cake mixture. Cook at 350 degrees about 25 min
utes. Thirteen by nine inch pan is desirable.
As soon as cake is done, drip the orange juice over the cake and
sprinkle over the top % cup sugar, % cup chopped nuts, 1 teaspoon
cinnamon. This recipe is very good, and may be served plain or with
whipped cream.
RICE-OYSTER DRESSING
This recipe is a repeat, as so many have asked me for it. It is
one of my own.,
3 cups uncooked rice 1
6 cups rich stock; if not rich
enough, add a large lump 1
of oleo 2
1 large onion grated and
browned in a little fat
Fresh oysters are expensive, so I
together in a heavy roaster that has a tight lid. Bring to boiling point
on stop of the stove. Place lid on roaster and put in pre-heated 400-
degree oven for 30 minutes, or cook till grains of rice are tender.
This is excellent with wild or domesticated duck or turkey.
medium bunch of celery cut
in small pieces
teaspoon salt
or 3 cans of Negro head
oysters according to your
taste and pocketbook
use the canned ones. Mix all
This recipe is excellent in that it makes a large amount and will
keep about a week in refrigerator before souring. If you have a
freezer, the dough may be divided into about six batches, put into
plastic bags and frozen till ready for use. A good dough for cinnamon
rolls and raised doughnuts as well as for plain rolls.
1 quart milk (powdered milk 1 cup shortening
may be used) 1 cup sugar
Heat these ingredients till shortening melts, then cool to luke
warm. Add one yeast cake or one package dry yeast dissolved in %
cup warm water.
To the above mixture add flour till mixture is the consistency
of cake dough. Beat well (I use my electric mixer). Set aside and
let rise for two hours till doubled in bulk.
Then sift together and add: 1 heaping teaspoon salt, 1 heaping
teaspoon baking powder, 1 level teaspoon soda, and 2 cups flour. Beat
well, then add enough flour so that mixture can be handled with ease.
Store in refrigerator in large pan which has been greased well with
Wesson Oil. After you put the dough in the pan, pour a little Wesson
Oil over the top of the dough and smooth with your hand till the whole
surface is greased. Cover to keep dough soft.

ligii School’s band tomorrow
light at the CHS-Bellville
ootball game, according to drum
tiajor Don Avera.
“We have always been a little
n awe of the Aggie Band,” Avera
aid, “so we thought we would use
iur last half-time show of the year
o honor them with some of the
naneuvers they have made fa-
nous.”
The band will enter from the

ilaying the Aggie War Hymn. Af-
er marching down the field and
!oing a triple continuous counter
narch, they will play “Men of Mu-

Playing this march, the band will
plit by column movements, one
lalf going to the left and the oth-
r half to the rierht. Another
paralled along the side lines and
two others will bring the entire
band back together.
After a single counter march,
the band will halt and form the
block “T”. With Avera in front
and two twirlers on either side act
ing as assistant drum majors, the
band will move to the end of the
field playing the Aggie War Hymn.

Receiving Line Shelved
By Women’s Press Club
By JANE EADS
WASHINGTON—Usually every-
skip the receiving business entirely,
and make a direct beeline for
body has a good time at a Wash
ington party—unless it’s the hosts
and the honored guests, who must
spend a good part of the evening
standing in a receiving line, shak
ing hands and exchanging pleas
antries with many folks they don’t
know and likely as not will never
see again.
But sometimes this formality
even wears down the guests. If
as many as 500 to 1,000 are in
vited, often the case at official
functions in the capital, the line
of prospective well-wishers some
times extends to the street curb.
Traffic gets snarled, feet ache,
and even buffet tables are devas
tated ere the last arriva gets
through with the amenities.
Some guests on such occasions,
after inching along for a half hour
or more, just give up and go home.
Others just say to heck with it,
the bar.
Officers of the Women’s Na
tional Press Club introduced a
happy way of helping everyone
to get acquainted at their latest
shindig for seven new ambassa
dors and their wives.
The feted guests were met at
the door by at least two club
members and escorted to small
tables where they could sit down
and enjoy the champagne and
sweets while the other guests came
up and greeted them.
The honored envoys were among
11 newcomers to Embassy Row
from countries scattered over
four continents who have arrived
in Washington since last spring.
Split English muffins, spread the
cut surfaces with a Pizza topping
and then bake in a hot (425 de
grees) oven for five minutes or so.
