Ms. Is New Magazine For Women
—Ms. is a new title for some
American women, a new maga-
e, and according to the women
vho work there, a new state of
imind.
Using the title that implies a
|woman’s marital status is no-
Ibody’s business, Ms. magazine
^promotes political, social and eco-
Inomic equality for women on its
Iglossy pages. Just five issues old,
[it already has a circulation of
Imore than half a million.
I “It’s a whole new way of reach-
ling women. We aim to help wom
en realize their full potential, and
to become a forum for discussion
1 of progress and problems,” said
I Pat Carbine, the magazine’s pub-
llisher and a former editor of Look
land McCall’s.
| Ms., the largest slick above-
I ground feminist magazine, has
dly Store || featured articles by Kate Millett
.) KU ELRlg writing about Angela Davis, wel-
)r. 84G-5$ilf fare mothers writing about them
selves, and Germaine Greer writ
ing that women should do without
underwear. Regular columns fea
ture tributes to obscure heroines
in history, do-it-yourself mechan
ics, and comments from liberated
men.
Ms. editors express confidence
about the magazine’s future suc
cess and others in the magazine
business say their record so far
is good.
The original print order for the
first issue was for 400,000 and
that has climbed to 510,000 for
October. About 65 per cent of the
sales are from the newsstands.
More than 40 per cent of the
subscription orders come in with
money already enclosed. The in
dustry figure for cash subscrip
tions is about 5 per cent, accord
ing to the publisher.
“The returns have been larger
than all our projections,” she said.
The magazine’s circulation is
still behind that of other women’s
magazines such as Cosmopolitan,
which now has more than a mil
lion and a half readers, or Good
Housekeeping with close to six
million.

Though it will be two or three
years before the real success of
the magazine is measured, Pat
Carbine says they are already not
far from the break-even point
financially. “And we’re doing well
enough on income from subscrip
tions and newsstand sales so we
don’t have to depend on adver
tisers.”
The magazine, averaging about
118 pages, now has only about
12 pages of ads. It would like
three times as many.
Though returns from a sub
scriber’s survey have not been
tabulated, Margaret Cleary of the
circulation department thinks Ms.
is read mostly in college towns
and in areas where there are
many women in business. It is
not as popular in blue collar areas,
she said.
Ms. has been criticized for its
lack of humor. “I agree,” says
Gloria Steinem, one of the maga
zine’s founders. “But for so long
ridicule has been used as a weap
on against women. It’s more dif
ficult for us to use. But then, we
Try Chicken

find things funny that men don’t
at all. Men will continue to say
we need more humor while we are
falling down laughing.”

Because chicken fits into budg
ets these days, it appears often
on home dining tables. But fami
lies sometimes get tired of eating
chicken “the same old way.” When
this happens at your house, you
might like to try this recipe; it is
adapted from Mexican cuisine.
CHICKEN WITH ORANGES
1 broiler-fryer chicken (about 3
pounds), quartered
!4 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
14 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons salad oil
!4 small onion, finely chopped
% cup chicken broth (from a
10%-ounce can), undiluted
M: cup orange juice
14 cup raisins
1 teaspoon aromatic bitters
114 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons cold water
orange slices
Wash and dry chicken. Mix to
gether flour, salt and pepper; coat
chicken with mixture.
In a large skillet heat oil; add
chicken and brown on both sides.
Place chicken in one layer in a
shallow baking pan.
To drippings in skillet add the
onion, chicken broth, orange juice,
raisins and aromatic bitters; with
a wooden spoon stir over low heat
to get up drippings. Pour over
chicken.
Bake in preheated 350-degree
oven until chicken is tender —
about one hour. Remove chicken
and raisins to a platter and keep
warm.
Pour drippings from baking
pan into a cup; let stand until
fat rises to top; skim off fat.
Pour skimmed drippings into a
small saucepan; mix cornstarch
with water until smooth; add to
saucepan. Cook over moderate
heat, stirring constantly, until
sauce thickens; spoon sauce over
chicken. Garnish with orange
slices. Serve with yellow rice.
Makes four servings.

Fashion Trend
To Leather In
Today’s Clothes
Going natural is the big thing
these days, and fashion-conscious
Texans are doing just that with
leather.
“The current appeal for lay
ered separates couldn’t be better
for leather apparel as the classics
blend well with the leather jack
ets, vests, skirts and pants,” ac
cording to Roxanne Schnorr,
Texas Agricultural Extension
Service clothing specialist.
Jackets in the fashion fore
front include the short battle
jacket, shirt jackets, smocks,
blazers, wrap-around, and safari
jackets. Short-fashion leather
vests top skirts, while vests in
longer lengths pair with pants.
Leather for pants and jeans—
in suede or grained styles—is
supple and projects a lean line.
With the re-entry of skirts into
fashion, leather appears in wrap
arounds, gored nad A-line sil
houettes.
“The spectrum of leather vari
ations provides additional excite
ment to its fashion appeal,” the
A&M specialist said as she
detailed its different types.
Leather types are divided into
two categories—suede and split
leather, grain and smooth leather.
“With these categories options
offered by animal hides and skins
become more apparent,” the spe
cialist noted. “Categories also
indicate the care required for
these leathers, as permanent-care
labels are not required for gar
ments made with them.”
Suede leathers have a velvety
nap. The leather has been turned
inside out and buffed to achieve
its soft surface. Split leather is
cowhide with a rough, brushed
nap.
Heavily soiled suede and split
leather should be professionally
dry cleaned. In-between care
simply involves brushing with
terry towel or suede brush to
remove loose soil. Spots and light
stains can be removed with a soft
gum eraser, emery board or chalk
cleaner.
If suede leather gets wet, dry
the garment away from heat
