SHRIMP WIGGLE
This recipe is a fine one for career girls and busy mothers because
it should be left' in the refrigerator overnight so the sauce will thin
and the flavors develop. We like it served with crisp buttered toast
and a crisp tossed salad. Make the toast as usual, then butter it lavish
ly and put it in the oven (on aluminum foil) to get really crisp and have
the butter soak in.
1 pound medium-sized shrimp
1 can (1 pound and 1 ounce)
young small green peas
milk
4 tablespoons butter or oleo
4 tablespoons flour
Cook the shrimp in lightly salted simmering water to cover; drain;
devein. Cut each shrimp in half lengthwise. Drain peas thoroughly; add
enough milk to the pea liquid to make 2 cups. Melt butter in saucepan
over low heat; stir in flour. Add milk mixture all at once; cook and stir
constantly over modei’ately low heat until bubbly and thickened. Stir
in salt, Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco sauce (to taste) and minced
pimiento.
Add shrimp and drained peas. Cover and cool. Turn into container;
cover tightly; refrigerate overnight so sauce will thin and flavors de
velop. Reheat gently in saucepan over low heat stirring often. Serves 4.
CHERRY COMPOTE
We tested the following recipe for a cherry compote with the golden-
colored delicate Royal Annes; but you may wish to try it with the dark
juicy Bings. The compote may be garnished with coconut but it is npt
neccessary. Bring on a plate of lady fingers with the compote; they’re
available in most food markets or can be easily baked at home.
2 cans (1 pound each) pitted 2 large seedless oranges
sweet cherries shredded fresh or canned
Vi of a lemon flaked coconut (optional)
Drain cherries thoroughly over a saucepan. Cut end from lemon, then
slice into 4 rounds; cut each round in half. With sharp knife, cut rind
from oranges so no white membrane remains. Slice each orange into
8 rounds. Cut away the white membrane from a piece of orange peel
and then slice into 8 matchstick-sized pieces.
Heat cherry syrup. Add lemon slices and orange silvers and boil 5 mi
nutes. Skim oof foam with spoon. Add the drained cherries and heat
gently for about 1 minute. Pour into serving bowl and top with orange
slices and coconut. Makes 8 ’servings.

Federal Reserve
Reduces Deposits
WASHINGTON, (A*)—The Fed
eral Reserve Board yesterday re
duced by one-half of one per cent
the reserves which must be main
tained by its member banks
against demand deposits.
The action, another credit-eas
ing and anti-deflationary move,
will release about 500 million dol
lars from the legally frozen funds
of the system’s 6,400 member
banks.
This means a theoretical addi
tional three billion dollars in lend
ing capacity in the reserve bank
ing system.
For banks in the central reserve
cities-New York and Chicago-the
reduction is from 20 per cent to
19 % per cent, effective Feb. 27.
This will release about 125 million
dollars of reserves.
