At Crau'/ev home

Morning Musicale holds meeting

The November meeting of Morning Musicale was held at the home of Mrs. Evan Crawley 712 E Seminary. In spite of the cold damp evening and the election returns coming over T.V. a goodly number of members arrived to hear the sound of the oboe played by the club president. Mrs Donald White. The first section consisted of ’ Sonata for Oboe and Piano.” second movement by SaintSaens; 1 Concerto for Oboe and Strings” the Preludio and Giga Movements” by CorelliBarbirolli accompanied on piano by Mrs Cassell Grubb. The next numbers were the unusual sounds of Oboe and the Soprano voice played by Mrs. Donald White and sung by Mrs. Edward White entitled infant Joy.” and "The Ijimb" by R. Vaugh Williams Her next two numbers were by a Swedish botanist J. Francaix for Oboe and orchestra entitled "The Flower

Clock” and ‘ Poisenberry.” The last number in this section was "Chansonetti for Oboe and Piano” played by Mrs. White and Mrs. Grubb. She surprised her audience in the second section by playing a very old instrument of the Bach era called ‘’Oboe D’Amore.” never played in Gre^ncastle before. It is similar in looks to the English Horn with a larger bell causing a lower richer quality of tone than the Oboe Mrs. White played "Sonata III" the Adagio and Allegro movements transposed for Oboe D'Amore and Piano by Handel. Her next number was the "Aria from Cantata No. 84" for Soprano Oboe D’Amore and piano by J. S. Bach. Her closing number was the plaintive tuneful number ’Povane Pour Une Infanti Defunte” by Ravel which was most pleasing to her audience and stayed with one for many hours.

This program helped the club to appreciate the Oboe not only as a solo instrument but its importance in a symphony orchestra since the instruments are tuned to the sound of the oboe.

The Christmas meeting will be Dec. 3 at the home of Mrs. Ralph W. Graham. 703 Highndge Ave. at 7:30. Mrs. Robert Breere will be in charge of the "Christmas Sing” by the Musicgals of the club.

"What price liberation? How do you feel?” That was the question asked of members of the Epsilon Chapter of Delta Kappa Gamma at their Nov. 2 meeting which was held in the meeting room of the Central National Bank. The topic for the year is “The Woman Educator in Changing Times” and the question was addressed to the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA). Dr. Jamas Cooper, of the DePauw University History Department and his wife. Mrs. Shelia Cooper, of the Indiana University faculty, were the visiting speakers. Dr. Cooper traced the history of. the Womens’ Rights Movement from its beginning in the 18th Century in England to the present time, pointing out the changing differences in thinking and the goals to be

acheived.

In England the group was made up of radicals, taking the name of Suffragette and for-

Each spring and summer a tree adds new layers of wood to its trunk. The wood formed in spring grows fast and is lighter because it consists of large cells. In summer, growth is slower and the darker wood has smaller cells. So when a tree is cut, the layers appear as alternating rings of light and dark wood.

ming their own political party. The American group, not liking the tactics of the English group, called themselves Social Feminists, or Suffragists, and organized for society first and themselves secondly; i.e. working for laws to protect women on the job, especially those with children. They founded The League of Wome Voters, which was not concerned with "rights” until the last decade; were to a great degree responsible for the 19th Amendment, and pressed for the ERA in the 1920‘s and 1930's. The Great Depression thrust this movement aside, but it was revived in the 195fl's and 60's, with new reforms. Mrs. Cooper spoke of the

present ERA indicating that it is for both men and women and that the present laws are not really protective legislation. She stated that opponents take an emotional appeal, citing fallacies such as: women will be forced out of the home, women will be farced to share restrooms with men, will be eligible for the draft, etc. The alternative is the Civil Rights Act which opposes discrimination on any base, but here the battle must be fought case by case. A discussion period followed the talks with considerable input from the members ot me group. The program was under the direction of the Research Committee chaired by Mrs. Eleanor Hauser, assisted by Mrs. Marian Swartz, Mrs. Gladys Silvey, Mrs. Bernice Steward and Mrs. Evelyn Taylor. Hostesses were Mrs. Betty Aker, Mrs. Virginia Liston, Miss Myrle Day, Mrs.

Jean Ratcliff, Miss Mariette Bargen and Mrs. Mary Sanders. The next meeting will be the annual dinner-initiation meeting, held at the Memorial Student Union on December 7.

now operate a studio pottery at their home in Reelsville where Peeler designed and built all the buildings and the equipment himself. Until he resigned in 1972, Peeler was Professor of Fine Arts at DePauw University. Together the Peelers made an excellent and beautiful series of informational films on American and Japanese potters which is distributed by McGraw-Hill. Peeler has written many articles published in “Ceramics Monthly’’ magazine. He also served as president of the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts. His work has been widely shown including The Ceramic National Traveling Show, Ceramics

Museum of Art in 1974. The Peelers work is characterized by thorough craftsmanship with glazes that predominantly reflect the earth colors of the rural setting in which they live. They frequently use decorative elements suggestive of fossils found nearby. Other motifs they use grow out of the pliable nature of the clay itself. The Peelers handle a great range of sizes successfully from their tiny birds to Peeler’s great hand built ovoid forms. This show includes a representative selection of both usrful objects and sculpture.

The Gallery hours are; Tuesdays through Saturdays 12-5:30, Sundays 3-5. Closed Mondays.

Putnam Notes and Quotes Some tips on losing weight the proper way

NOTES & QUOTES by Betty H. Sendmeyer, Extension Home Economist Starving yourself for a day or two or exercising once a week until you’re exhausted-won’t make a successful dieter out of you. To lose weight you need to eat fewer calories and-or expend more energy and the best way to to this is to eat less and exercise more every day-in lots of little ways. Of course, you have a right to feel tired after working all day, but part of this exhaustion may be mental exhaustion. Your job may not require you to burn up many calories. Lack of physical activity may be a major reason for a weight problem. Here are several ways you can bum more calories every dayeven if you have a sedentary desk job: + Park your car a few blocks away from work.Walk the rest of the way. -F Walk up and down stairs. Avoid elevators and escalators.

4- Walk whenever you get the chance. For example, walk to your mailbox yourself; don’t send your children. -F Think twice before you buy a labor-saving device. Mowing lawn with a riding mower may be easier, bit it robs you of a chance to bum more calories. + Develop an exercise schedule that fits your life style. A 20 minute evening walk around the neighborhood might be an adequate exercise schedule for you. You won't bum up huge amounts of calories by increasing your activity in these ways. After all, it takes 36 hours of walking to work off a pound of fat. But exercise does add up. A 20 minute walk every day for 5 years would take off 20 pounds. And that’s more calories than you’ll burn up by playing touch football for a couple of hours a month or exercising with a belt massager for one hour a week. You shouldn’t fear that a moderate increase in excerise will increase your appetite. Appetite only increases when you go an all-out exercise program.

Craig Claiborne Japanese foods and restaurants more difficult to interpret

Osaka, Japan-After nearly two decades of writing about the foods of the world it seems on several counts to be more difficult to interpret the foods and restaurants of Japan than any place on earth. It would be no trick, of course, to write endlessly about establishments that cater strictly to the tourist trade. These are the places that deal in such obviously popular and well known dishes as Sukiyaki, Tampura, Shabu Shabu, Yakitori and the like. But the names and descriptions of such establishments are readily available at any local tourist office or the information desk of any hotel. And for the tourists who wince at drinking water from any spigot there are coffee shops in ail the best hotels that are equal to or surpassing, both in food and service, most coffee shops in America. There are several complexities involved in writing about the flavors and gastronomic amenities of Japan that lie beyond the obvious tables for tourists. First, although most Japanese are almost painfully generous, kind and hospitable, there are many fine and interesting restaurants here where no one speaks a word of English. Printed menus are all but unknown outside tourist establishments. as a consequence it is almost imperative that such restaurants be visted in the company of someone who speaks Japanese. Secondly, there are scores of Japanese dishes which, orally described, come off as passing strange to the western ear. who can persuade John Doe that there is much to be said in a positive sense for cooked chrysanthemum leaves (similar to but not identical with the garden variety) and pickled petals of the chrysanthemum flower? And if John Doe has mastered the art of eating raw fish in Sashimi and Sushi, who can persuade him that one of the greatest palatable pleasures in that category is chilled raw lobster tail? Who can persuade him that a lunch of nothing but buckwheat noodles served in their natural water bath with a soy sauce stock added can make a laudably appetizing and gratifying main course at mid-day? One of die nicest lunches we recall was at the Izuma Soba House at Sakai-Suzi, Nippon-Bashi, Kitazume, Higashi-Iru Here. Soba is the word for buckwheat noodles and that is the focal point of all the foods served. It is available hot in the broth or icy cold with a highly flavorful grated wild potato and raw egg base dip on the side, sharpened with grated Japanese radish, a touch of cayenne and chopped scallions. You might well find it irresistible rw.. —»ri ui.v.iiiga cue o juy. iiie cost ot a complete noodle lunch, Sake extra, is from about $1.75.

On a recent evening the nakai, or waitress, (what a demeaning ring that word has!) spilled a few drops of Sake down the shirtfront of a western lady guest and no one took it amiss; The Nakai cupped her hand over mouth and giggled and everyone at the table laughed with great and continuing spirit.

There are many full-fledged food enthusiasts in Japan who declare that the Kitcheo Restaurant may be the finest restaurant in the nation. It is housed in a splendid old mansion that was once a place for dealing in antique Japanese porcelain. The cost of a meal per person at the Kitcho is about $68. The Kitcho does not include the presence of a geisha although there are two nakai or waitresses in constant attendance.

We have learned during the course of this visit the folketymology of the word sukiyaki. Asuki we are told is an ancient long-handled gardening tool with a flat metal plate at the end. Yaki means grilled or broiled. In the olden days a cooking utensil containing various meats and vegetables was balanced on the end of the suki and extended over a fire grate where, by some stretch of a word’s meaning, the food was “Grilled."

We came by this lore while dining on a highly creditable sukiyaki dish called udon-suki made with white noodles known as udon. The restaurant where we were eating is a relatively new and immensely successful place with foods cooked at table (western seating) with each helping himself. The foods were cooked in a simmering pot in a clear well-seasoned soup broth an i the Various Foods included in addition to the tender, long, hand-made noodles, clams, chicken, shrimp, Japanese cabbage, turnips, and shiitake, the large black mushroom caps. An excellent meal. The cost was about $6 per person. Some noodle specialities at the Mimiu cost 75 cents. The Mimiu is situated at Mido-Kaikan-Ura.

The word restaurant with its french connotations seems an unhappy choice to describe most of the dinning establishments in Japan. In contrast to local manners and ways of dining the word restaurant sounds western, bare-faced and business like. Even the places that specialize in foods cooked over charcoal seem best served by the appellation house; I.E*. Yakitori House and so on.

The most serious of the eating places here are frequently housed in old mansions with meals served in sparsely funished, formally arranged rooms, more often than not few in number. If the setting is formal and the food served in an almost ritualistic manner, the meal is by no means all that soberside and without laughter.
