Good food is the hub around which most holiday activities revolve and unless we are careful, everyone vacations but mother! In order that our days do not disintegrate into a round of cooking, baking, packing picnic lunches and the inevitable dishewashing, it is wise to make some astute plans in advance. I am all for taking the labor out of Labor Day, aren't you? We can do it by working out some easy-to-do menus and by shopping our favorite Anaheim food stores well in advance of the big day. As this is the last holiday of summer, we can afford to be good to ourselves and there are some mighty fine advertised food specials to help us do it. As an example, both Safeway and Alpha Beta stores are advertising excellent values in ham. It's the flavorsome, tenderized kind, prepared by nationally known packers. Mmmmmmmm, I can almost taste it now, sweet and juicy straight from the oven, accompanied by a big dish of scalloped potatoes, hot biscuits and a green vegetable.

A spokesman for Hughes said the delay has the approval of Reconstruction Finance Corp., which helped finance building of the wooden monster. The largest airplane ever built was to be launched Saturday after terms of the contract with the RFC, but the Hughes spoon man blamed "problems conting the power plants" (24 horsepower altogether) when he arisen at the last minute. He would not amplify the plaiment. The wooden craft hasn't airborne since Hughes took off the water in a taxiing test oneral years ago. Hollywood Bowl Gives Raincheck LOS ANGELES (P)—Hollywood bowl postponed performance last night because of adverse weather conditions the second time in its 30-year history.

Last year with Pu on the Class D Appalachian the St. Louis farmhand led up with 68. AS an example, both Safeway and Alpha Beta stores are advertising excellent values in ham. It's the flavorsome, tenderized kind, prepared by nationally known packers. Mmmmmmmm, I can almost taste it now, sweet and juicy straight from the oven, accompanied by a big dish of scalloped potatoes, hot biscuits and a green vegetable. The little refrigerated buttermilk biscuits can be popped right from their can to a baking dish with no muss or fuss. And if you prepare plenty, the ham and potatoes will form the basis of another big meal or two—to say nothing of those thick ham sandwiches that taste so good at the beach or park. You might also like to consider canned ham. You will find this an economical way of buying ham since there is no bone or waste of any kind included in the can—just solid meat. It can be used just as it comes from the can, or it may be heated in the oven with your favorite topping. Nothing is more simple to prepare nor more delicious to eat. There are lots of possibilities in the poultry line. If you value the appreciative "oh's" and "ah's" that sound forth when you set a well browned bird in the center of the table, you will be interested in Alpha Beta's sale of tender turkeys, oven ready and eviscerated. They conveniently average about 12 pounds each. And Safeway's special on quick frozen frying chickens is designed for picnickers and stay-at-homes alike. It is good eating, hot or cold, and many homemakers like to fry their chicken the day before so that the piece de resistance of the picnic menu has merely to be wrapped and packed on the day of the picnic. Speaking of chicken brings to mind Alpha Beta's once a year sale of Swanson chicken. Its low price will intrigue you even if you have never tasted the mouth watering bird as it is packed under the Swanson label. If you have tasted it, 'nuff said! The canned chicken comes whole, cut up for frying, fricassed in giblet gravy, or boned and piled including the Navy Cup, the Marine Corps Cup and the Wimbledon. Bellboy's Pleadings Fail to Halt Plunge LOS ANGELES (UP)—In spite of pleas by a bellboy, George Lochridge, 65, leaped to his death from the 12th floor of a downtown hotel last night. Lochridge had entered the hotel and taken an elevator to one of the upper floors, said Charles Birt, the bellboy, who rushed upstairs to find Lochridge leaning over the edge. "I begged him not to jump, but he just pushed off without saying a word." Birt said. A card found in the dead man's pocket identified his wife as Mrs. Cassie Lochridge, 4416 E. Sixth st., Long Beach. Cleveland Forest Open to Hunting SAN DIEGO (UP)—Opening of certain Cleveland National forest areas in Orange and Riverside counties to hunting on a day-to-day permit basis was announced today by the U. S. Forest Service. This is the first time in several years that hunters have been permitted in the areas. Hamilton K. Pyles, Forest Service supervisor, said the rules were being relaxed because of rain and fog that had temporarily reduced the high fire hazards. Detailed information on areas to be opened, along with daily permits, can be obtained from U. S. district ranger headquarters at Escondido and Corona, and from guard stations at Temecula, Tanaja, San Juan, Silverado and El Cariso. serve cold meat, this hot casserole will be just the thing to accompany the meat course. BAKED VEGETABLE CASSEROLE 1 medium size egg plant 3 tablespoons cooking fat 3 tablespoons flour 3 large tomatoes 1 small green pepper 1 small onion 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon brown sugar ½ bay leaf Speaking of chicken brings to mind Alpha Beta's once a year sale of Swanson chicken. Its low price will intrigue you even if you have never tasted the mouth watering bird as it is packed under the Swanson label. If you have tasted it, 'nuff said! The canned chicken comes whole, cut up for frying, fricassed in giblet gravy, or boned and packed in 6 ounce cans of white meat only. As it keeps indefinitely in the can, this is a good time to stock up for future needs. FRUITS AND VEGETABLES A supply of fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator will round out the holiday meals and provide a snack or two at television time. Watermelon season is fading fast, and this may be your last chance for the pink-meuated fruit. Safeway has a good supply of melons of all kinds including the cantaloupe, the popular Persian, and the Jap melon which is not so well known but whose meat is the sweetest of all. This is the season for plums, for many varieties of grapes, for peaches and pears. We like Alpha Beta's brand of Lake County mountain grown Bartletts. They really are a treat to eat. And right next to the fruit, you will find the perennial favorites, bunch vegetables. These are a standard feature at Alpha Beta and because of their pin money price and crisp freshness, they suggest tasty salads and dinner vegetables. If you are planning to roast your meat course, it is easy to bake a vegetable casserole right with it. Or if you are planning to pany the meat course. BAKED VEGETABLE CASSEROLE 1 medium size egg plant 3 tablespoons cooking fat 3 tablespoons flour 3 large tomatoes 1 small green pepper 1 small onion 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon brown sugar ½ bay leaf 2 cloves Peel and dice the egg plant and cook it in salted water for 10 minutes. Drain and place in a greased baking dish. Make a paste of the fat and flour and add the other vegetables to it. Sprinkle with seasonings and sugar and cook for five minutes. Pour them over the egg plant and cover with bread crumbs. Dot lightly with butter or grated cheese and bake at 350 degrees for a half hour. Serves 8. SUGAR AND SPICE If we are to keep the cook out of the kitchen and into the holiday spirit, we had better include a stop at the bakery when we shop this week. Hadley's pastries are a treat to any sweet tooth and the holiday special on date-nut bread and on cinnamon bread promises excellent eating particularly at breakfast time for it makes superb toast. Keep Hadley's Bakery in mind for ice cream, especially if you can use the half gallon economy packs which come in flavors of rocky road, butterscotch or raspberry marble, peanut crisps, orange sherbet and English toffee as well as the ever popular vanilla, chocolate and strawberry.

The National Skish tournament, PARIS (P)—Poisoned bread was blamed today for a bizarre illness in the south of France which has taken four lives, driven people mad and forced some to attempt suicide. Three other towns reported epidemics of ordinary food poisoning. Strange tales of "bread that makes men mad" came from the tiny Rhone river port of Pont St. Esprit, where four persons have died since the weird malady struck Aug. 17. At least 200 persons have called for urgent medical care and some said their brains were wracked by hallucinations of being surrounded by flames or monsters. Physicians found that all those stricken had eaten bread from the same bakeries. Some bread was thrown into the river and the fish dled. Authorities are thinking of banning fishing in the river. The use of flour from a number of mills supplying the town already has been banned. One theory is that the flour was poisoned with ergot, a cereal parasite which flourishes in rainy years. Officials thought the illness might be a recurrence of "fervent fever" known during the middle ages to have been caused by ergot and to have driven men mad. They've given some of the bread to mice and the mice have become paralyzed. Semi-Pro Outfit Beats the Seals HEALDSBURG, Calif. (P)—The league, apparently can't generate MARJORIE LAWRENCE, operatic concert singer, and ERICH MUSDORF, conductor were rain-out and will appear Friday instead.

And once Sun won the St. Patrick's race. THE schedule includes the one ounce surf spinning distance on Thursday, September 20, the ½ ounce Skish spinning distance on Friday, September 21, and the Skish Spinning Accuracy on Saturday afternoon, September 22. The team event will follow the spinning accuracy event on Saturday. The National Skish tournament, sponsored by Anaheim Izaak Walton league, also includes events for the fly fisherman and the bait caster during the four days at the fair. This is an open tournament. Club membership not necessary to enter. For information concerning the tournament, please contact Clint Flynn, general chairman, 603 W. Broadway, Anaheim. Semi-Pro Outfit Beats the Seals HEALDSBURG, Calif. (UP)—The league, apparently can't generate San Francisco Seals, basement dwellers of the Pacific Coast victory by tackling the semi-pros. The Healdsburg Prune Packers, one of Northern California's top independent clubs, shaded the Seals 4-3 here last night. Seal Skipper Lefty O'Doul cried in anguish in the fourth when Barney Serrell and Bob Thurman were trapped on base and put out. WILLIAMS SHOE STORE...
