i © will PAGE EIGHT THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE TUESDAY, MARCH 29, 1949 In The Home "> OF INTEREST TO WOMEN -~ Comnuuvuty In The Prairie Region Winners Up In Arms At Exclusion From Dominion Festival Toronto-- (CP) -- Flurry of pro- test is blowing over the election of competitors in the Dominion Dra- ma Festival. ' Regional winners from Manitoba and Saskatchewan have been left out. Three productions which did not win regional honors are listed for the Festival here April 25-30. Hopping-mad over their exclusion from the 12 companies to be seen on the boards during the All-Can- ada finals, Little Theatre groups in the Prairie cities are dubbing the Festival "An Eastern Show." But Regional Adjudicator Robert Speaight, who recommended the list of finalists to the Festival Exe- cutive Committee, is standing firm. He insists that the winning region- al play should not automatically go into the Festival. "Many good plays won't be shown in the Festival because the (Festi~ val) standard is so high," he said in an interview. "The plays were chosen on absolute merit." Festival Chairman, D. Park Ja- mieson, of Sarnia, said that be- cause of the "exceptionally high standard" of three-act entrants and the committee's desire to en- sure ,only the best in Canadian theatre, he regretted it wasn't pos- sible to include all regional win- ners. "It seems to me this is an East- er show, not a Dominion Drama Festival," commented Norman Browne, regional chairman of the Dominion Drama Festival from Re- gina. A charge that exclusion of re-| gional winners from finals discour- | aged amateur drama was made by | Moray Sinclair, Director of Mani- | toba's winning play "The Glass | Menagerie." | Mr. Sinclair thought that without full representation from all prov- inces the festival loses its "Domi- nion" character and becomes a "highly selective competition." Mr. Speaight saw about 65 plays across Canada and of the ten Canadian-written ones, he selected two for the finals. These are "For- tune My Foe," winner of the Eng- lish Eastern Ontario region which was written by playwright Robert- son Davies, editor of the Peterbor- ough Examiner, and "Over The Boiler Room," written by William | Digby and produced by the London | Little Theatre. The London entry was one of the non-winners in the Western Ontario region. The other two non-winners in regional festivals which were in- vited were: "The Taming of the Shrew" by the Peterborough Little Theatre and Moliere's "Les Femmes Savantes," by the Cours Francois | Rozet, Montreal. | From the Maritimes comes "Em- | la Dramatic Soprano Gives Varied Program Group 1 of the Women's Asso- ciation of Northminster United Church were hosts last evening at a recital given by Hazel Solomon, A.

Food stored 'in the freezing locker gives one a great feeling of security. About this time of year you have probably used most of "Your frozen fruits and. vegetables and consequently find yourself paying for empty space. Since meat is a good buy at this season, it would be wise to buy a quarter of beef, a rack of lamb or a side of pork for your locker space. The meat should be cut by experienced meat cutters at the locker plant or the operator could direct you to one. Boning meat has become popular during | the last few years because less | storage space is required and the danger of bones puncturing the wrapping is eliminated. The quality of frozen meat is determined by the selection of wrapping for meat and the method of wrapping. It is not wise to at- tempt to economize on wrapping satisfactory job as meat will dry out and "freezer-burn". results, We suggest that you wrap meat in heavy cellophane, seal it; then wrap with aluminum foil or heavy oil butcher paper and seal it with strong sized tape. Tape should be strong to resist handling and mois- ture, also capable of receiving china pencil marks for labeling -- and inexpensive. Acetate locker tape is the best if available. One piece of laminated paper or a piece of aluminum foil placed be- tween chops, steaks or patties to be wrapped together, will permit separation' when ready to use without thawing the entire pack- age. 1 In general, each bundle should contain only enough for one meal, but if the portions are separated as described, one or more chops can be removed and the package re- sealed and placed back in the freez- er Ground meat must be cooked im- mediately after thawing. Thawed meat should never be refrozen, therefore ground meat for meat loaf should be packaged in the right amount needed for the recipe if waste is to be avoided. Be sure to label the package accord- ing to the recipe for which meat was prepared; for example: Favour- ite stew, Mary's meat loaf, Joe's hamburgs, etc. TAKE A TIP 1 The paper must be pulled tightly around the meat and smoothed to drive out all possible air and eliminate air pockets. The pack- age should be smooth and firmly packed to conserve storage space. 2 Do not twist or fold ends of tape. String is not adequate for pack- aging unless waxed. : Place the meat in a large basket and store in a cool place until it is transported to locker plant. Be sure packages are taken to freezer within 24 hours. Poultry is one of the best frozen foods if it is prepared ready for the roast pan--with or without dressing. If they are stuffed, the dressing should be lightly seasoned with herbs, Freezing seems to ceate a stronger flavor of the herbs. Fish which has been cleaned and washed in salty water may be left whole or in fillets. These, too, must be wrapped securely. Eggs, especially fresh ones, are convenient to store if broken into small glass jars, skaled and froz- en. In fact we have quite a num- ber of cracked ones from the farm and find it useful to store a small jar of teh egg whites in one container--the yolks in an- other, These are then taken out for custards or an angel cake, THE QUESTION BOX Mrs. B.

But Wouisa, along with most other successful ballet-and-tap ex- ponents, figures a dancer can't maintain proficiency just by doing the same romtines night after night, Every day she takes 1% hours' lessons, brushing up on fundamentals. She began dancing when she was 15 under the coaching of Van- couver dancer Rosemarie Deveson and three years later was good enough to crash Broadway.' She got small parts in the suc- cessful revival of "The Red Mill" and the monumentally unsuccess- ful - "Barefoot Boy With Cheek." Then came her appearance in the New York production of "High But- ton Shoes."
