Interested in baking like a na- tional champion? Seventeen - year-old Sharon Dorsch of Baden, Ont., Can- ada's 1965 Cherry Pie Baking Champion has one formula for isuccess: Insist on nothing but top qual- ity ingredients; use a little VA genuity in adjusting recipes to your own taste; don't stop work- ing on any creation until its out of the oven; and get lots of practice. A Grade 12 student at Water- loo-Oxford district High School, Sharon comes by her culinary craftsmanship honestly. Despite her tender years, she has some four years experience with bowls, beaters and baking ovens, The second youngest of a fam- ily of four she's been helping her widowed mother, Mrs. Helen Dorsch, with the cooking and baking chores since she was 13. "T don't really look upon bak- ing as a chore," Sharon cor- rects." It has become a hobby. I often pop out to the kitchen to whip something up as a way of relaxation when the studying|* gets a litte rough.' The studying is towards a career in teaching, with ele- mentary grades preferred at the moment. | The Cherry Pie Baking Cham- | hips were Sharon's first If you like strong chili, 6 or more tablespoons of chili powder and add the 4 of garlic powder. Simmer this mixture gently for four hours without covering.

FOR THE BIRTHDAY If tomorrow is your birthday, your chart presents a pleasant outlook for the next year. While you may experience some "ups and downs" where job and monetary affairs are concerned, some months bringing fine ad- vances, others somewhat on the dull side, you can, if you will try to overcome your innate tendency to become easily dis- couraged in the face of ob- stacles, bring an even balance to the situation and wind up the year in a highly satisfac-| jlory position.
