Webster youth injured Seventeen-year-old Scott Coffin of r 1 North Webster was admitted to Kosciusko Community Hospital in fair condition on Tuesday night of last week, following an apparent accidental shooting in his father’s garage near Webster Lake.

Home Grown Books — Cookbooks —a sampler
How about a quiche? Nothing livens up a table like the pastry that’s a meal in itself. Yet quichemaking, although haute cuisine, need not be agonizing, Lolita Moore has written a little pamphlet, "Quiche Cookery,” that puts the newcomer on the scent. She begins with recipes for pie crust and egg cream base, then presents twenty varieties of delicious fillings — including eggplant, cheese and onion, even the lowly tuna fish. The result is a treat. Moore’s "Italian Herb Cooking” is a heftier booklet: 99 pages of dishes cooked with fresh herbs, although dried may be substituted. The instructions are just as clear and precise as for quiches. Appetizers include a refreshing zucchini marinated with mint, while the book opens with 15 basic sauces — there’s more to Italian cooking than tomato sauce!

Congressman Floyd Fithian Reports
Every day we see evidence that the world is growing smaller. Intercontinental satellite communication, merely a plan on the drawing boards 20 years ago, is commonplace now. Goods and commodities are rapidly transported between widely dispersed points on the globe, and international travel is no longer extraordinary. National economies are increasingly interdependent. Sometimes we Americans have difficulty adapting to this changed world situation. We re independent people by nature, and the idea that America must depend on another nation is hard for us to swallow. But the 1973 Arab oil embargo brought us up short, and we quickly learned how much our economy is influenced by the price and availability of foreign oil. Grain prices plummeted two years ago when farmers worldwide produced an overabundant crop, demonstrating our dependence on foreign customers for American corn and wheat. And the dollar’s beating on world money markets last year, which fueled inflation here at home, demonstrated that we are participants in a truly global economy. America’s most troubling problem today is inflation, and we must recognize that it cannot be solved by exclusively domestic efforts. Cutting federal spending and altering tax policies will help, but we will not beat inflation until we strengthen the dollar by reducing our disastrous balance of payments deficit. The United States must reduce the gap between the value of what we import and what we export. We cannot again tolerate the $28.5 billion trade deficit which our economy posted last year. Three steps are crucial. First, we need to decrease oil imports, which drained S4O billion from our economy last year. Second, we must act to limit unfair competition facing Americanmade products from imported goods. And we must increase our overseas sales of U.S. manufactured and agricultural goods. Increased export sales can be vitally important for Indiana. An estimated 40,000 jobs in Indiana
book crammed with over 250 local favorites, mostly donated by the island’s residents. Pages are scattered with drawings and quotes; historic photos divide the sections. There’s a zesty Jalapeno corn bread, and the crab meat stuffed mushrooms are not to be missed. Many recipes use prepared foods (canned soup, for instance) to save time for the cook. Culinary sympathy is also expressed in such titles as “Flounder at its Easiest,” while the rule for “Instant Supper” —a TV dinner — is a bit of whimsy. Included are lists of abbreviations and equivalent measures, descriptions of spices and herbs, definitions of cooking techniques, and a guide to use when you’re missing an ingredient. “Pleasure Island Cook Book”, order from Pleasure Island Printing Co., box 976, Carolina Beach, NC 28428. “Wings of Life” by Julie Jordan is a vegetarian cookbook geared for the person who wants to eat wholesome, natural products and has a little extra time to spend in the kitchen. The author’s thoroughness and common-sense approach makes this one of the best natural foods cookbooks around. So that the reader can go on to invent variations, she describes a range of possible ingredients; she begins each section by detailing the basic procedure, then gives a sampling of her favorites. One finds recipes for exotics like bean curd, pizza dough, and baba ganoush, as well as staple bread-making methods. The book’s title comes from a compliment Jordan received on

are directly related to producing manufactured goods for export. On the farm, about one job out of three in Indiana comes from export sales income. ‘On the House Agriculture Committee, I have worked to increase our overseas sales of farm commodities. We succeeded last year in passing the Agricultural Trade Act, which I cosponsored. It will open new markets for American farm products by beefing up our export sales promotion activities and giving new emphasis to agricultural trade expansion. We also increased the amount of food being sold through low-interest loans to poorer nations in the P.L. 480 (Food for Peace) program. But we must do more. Last week I was appointed to the House Committee on International Relations, where I will serve during this Congress in addition to my regular assignments to the Agriculture and Government Operations Committees. Perhaps the most important role I can play through my committee assignments will be to encourage additional effort in selling American goods abroad, especially farm commodities. The United States currently accounts for 60 per cent of the world trade in feed grains, and Indiana is the nation’s third leading exporter of feed grains and soybeans. Indiana farmers earned more than $1.3 billion from export sales last year, and the total should go even higher this year. That’s important for all of us, since every dollar in farm income generates $3.50 in buying power in the economy. The effort to improve international understanding, perhaps the principal task of the International Relations Committee. is important in and of itself. But success in that endeavor can stimulate trade opportunities, just as normalization of relations with China will enable us to sell more grain in Asia. That, in turn, will help reduce the inflation caused by last year’s trade deficit. Sometimes the solutions to our most pressing problems are found beyond our government, and one in which I hope to play a major role in the coming months.

Begin Losing with Gourmet Magic.” By substituting ingredients, says author Naomi Watson, we can eat like gourmets without adding on those extra pounds. For instance, she’s come up with a recipe for sour cream with two-thirds less calories than the real thing. Each recipe charts calories and nutrition; the most thinning dishes begin each section.
