Take Breakfast To The Park
Avoid crowded picnic areas by picnicking at breakfast time. Early
risers know that picnics are more enjoyable if the surroundings are
uncluttered with people—or things.
Breakfast is an easy meal to take on a picnic. Ready-to-eat cereals
are just right—no cooking is necessary—merely pack the cereal box in
the picnic hamper. This breakfast takes just a few minutes to pack.
MENU ,
Shredded Wheat
. with
Fresh Sliced Peaches and Milk
Pecan Rolls Butter
Chocolate Milk
The peaches could be sliced and sugared at home. Additional sugar
would not be necessary with the sweetened peaches. Pecan rolls are a
favorite—butter probably would be unnecessary.
Colorful plastic spoons, paper plates (except the cereal bowls) and
gay bandannas for napkins add a festive note to the outdoor breakfast.
Another way to vary the way you serve that all important meal—■
breakfast—is to serve it on trays that can be carried to the porch or
patio.
Doctors and dietitians agree that a basic breakfast of fruit, cereal,
milk, bread and butter will provide one-fourth of the daily nutritional
requirement. You and your family will feel better and work better,
especially in the late morning hours, if you eat a basic breakfast th®
year round.
Raise Funds For Olympics
Tubie Resnik (right) executive vice president of Calvert Distillers Co.,
wishes bon voyage to Joe Yancey, founder and coach of the FNew York
Pioneer Club, who is leaving with a team of young athletes for the
Olympic elimination trials in Boulder, Colorado. This is the third suc
cessive year that Mr. Resnik has raised funds to help send one of Mr.
Yancey’s Pioneer teams to the tryouts. _
Under Mr. Yancey’s leadership, the Pioneer Club has been fighting
juvenile delinquency, by training young athletes and demonstrating the
ideal of American brotherhood in action for over 19 years. At the mo
ment he donates his coaching services for more than 250 young Negro
and white athletes. Several weeks ago his Harlem track and field team
won the Metropolitan AAU championship, breaking the hold of the
New York AC for the first time in 26 years. In other years, the Pioneer
Club has succeeded in placing a number of its stars on United States
Olympic teams. Mr. Yancey was once chosen as the “Man of the Year”
for his work with youth.

THE NEWEST CARD GAME
Don't believe it the next time some
one tells you that Calypso is only a
combination of Canasta and Bridge.
Nothing could be farther from the
truth as you yourself will discover
the very first time you play the game.
of course, is
'the exciting
aew card
game cur
r e n t 1 y
sweep ing
the country .•
Which gives *
each player
his own per
sonal trump
suit and is;
played with '
four decks|
of cards
shuffled to- 1
gether to
form one giant pack. Conceived in
the romantic island of Trinidad,
Calypso has already been described
Iby one well-known card expert as
the first really new card game since
Whist. Whist first appeared way back
in the sixteenth century.
If this isn’t enough to convince you
that Calypso is an entirely new game,
a few comparisons with Canasta and
(Bridge may help.
i How does Calypso differ from
JBridge? For one thing, there is no
bidding in Calypso. For another,
’ there is no "dummy”; all four players
play every hand. But Calypso’s big
gest distinction is that it gives each
player his own personal trump suit,
determined at the beginning of the
game by drawing cards and unaltered'
by any of the cards received in en-^
suing deals.
Calypso is a game in which tricks
are taken, but unlike Bridge, the
number of tricks captured has no
significance and they are frequently
broken up in the process of forming
Calypsos. Calypso also differs from
Bridge in that no one suit ranks
higher than another.
What about Canasta? The games
are similar in that the main object
in Calypso is to complete as many
Calypsos as possible during the four
deals comprising a game. But you
cannot add to a Calypso (a complete
run of 2, 3, 4, etc., up to the ace of
your personal suit) by melding from
your hand; you build the Calypso
only with cards in tricks won by you
and your partner. There is no meld
ing or discarding in Calypso, no wild
cards or bonus cards; Jokers aren’t
even used.
Perhaps the best news for most
card fans is that a Calypso game is
completed in a half hour or less
while a game of Canasta can some
times run several hours.
You can get a free, pocket-sized
leaflet containing the complete rules
for playing Calypso merely by send

ope to Playing Cards. 420 Lexington

Distinctive Table Top
IF YOU have a coffee table
with a marred top but
itherwise good appearance, you
:an make it like new without
i lot of laborious refinishing.
And at the same time you can
give the table a distinctive
feature that it never had — a
marble pattern top with a sur
face that takes abuse.
The simple job is done by
applying a new top in the form
of a plastic-finished Marlite
panel in one of five authentic
marble patterns. Widely used
for walls and ceilings, the ma
terial is available at lumber
yards.
Saw a panel to fit, allowing j
a fraction of an inch for
smoothing edges by planing and
sanding. Bond the panel to the
table with adhesive and leave
weights on top until the ad
hesive is set. Wax the edges or
paint them to harmonize with
the marble pattern and table
finish.
Your new table top, with its
baked-on plastic finish over a
tempered Masonite hardboard
base, will defy attacks by bev
erages, heat and wear. Damp
cloth wiping will clean it.

Freezer Facts
Today’s homemaker is a smart food buyer. One of her favorite tricks
is taking advantage of “specials” in meats at the supermarket, buying
extra cuts and storing them in her home freezer to stretch her food
dollars.
But she also knows proper freezing must follow her trip to the store—;
if her thrift-wise shopping is really to pay off. Thus she keeps in mindl
three important points about freezing meats at home:
1. Choose high quality meats. Since freezing does not improve the
flavor of any food, the frozen product will be no better than the food in
its original state.
2. Package meats properly. Choose a wrapping material which keeps
air out. When air is allowed to reach food during freezer storage, the
result is loss of moisture, accompanied by a change in flavor. The food
soon becomes unpalatable. The condition known as “freezer burn” occurs
when air enters the package.
One of the best freezer wrapping materials on the market is the new
plastic wrap made of saran. Because this transparent film clings to the
shape of any food being wrapped, it is possible to mold the film closely
even to irregular cuts of meat, such as roasts, squeezing out a maximum
amount of air from the package.
Follow this simple method: First, pad any bony edges with an extra
piece of saran; then overwrap with a single thickness of the film using
the “drug store wrap” method; pull saran tightly around meat to get
the closest possible seal before applying freezer tape; tape and label.
Masking tape which may be written on is good and makes labeling easy.
3. Label foods accurately. Label each package with date, name of
product, and approximate number of servings. It is helpful to add an
“expiration date” to the label—the maximum storage time. Most freezer
manuals will have storage time charts. Check freezer occasionally to
use up those foods stored longest. Use all foods before expiration date.
Careful attention to good freezer techniques and proper packaging
will insure a high quality frozen food product.
