New York Cooking Academies Show No Increases In Price
New York (U.P.)—The high cost of eating is regarded complacently in at least one quarter—the cooking school.
A check of local cooking academies showed no increase in the price of the courses, which include the ingredients for the recipes under construction, and no visible nervousness over requests for low-cost meals.
"It's a challenge." Mrs. Helen Worth said brightly. "I've always fought against what I call 'snboc cooking' in my classes. Now women are forced to use substitutes." She operates the "3 B's Cooking School."
"It's a class of couples. The woman pays $20 and the man $1, and they prepare a complete meal at each class and eat it afterwards," said a X.W.C.A. executive. You don't have to bring your husband. It can be a boy friend.
The Y.W.C.A. reported cooking as usual in its classes. There's even a six-class course advertised for April at a new bargain rate.
Mrs. Worth said that most of the women who sign up for her classes have been cooking for several years, but they just want to learn unusual recipes.
"That doesn't mean expensive," she added hastily. "I call snob cooks those who insist on cooking with butter, or who frown on making their own mayonnaise to save a few cents."
Her favorite trick is to take the luncheon menu from a good restaurant and show her students how many of the items are made from leftovers. She picked up one menu and pointed at a "sizzling turkey sandwich" with a "swell rarebit sauce."
"Maybe you dress it up with a little paprika since parsley is 19 cents a bunch, but it can still look and taste good," she said.
She also likes to point out that some high-sounding foods, like crepe suzettes, make the family forget the absence of steak, and don't bend the budget either.
"You don't need a chafing dish or an arsenal of alcohol to make crepe suzettes—just milk, flour, eggs and shortening," she said airily. "The sauce can be made of orange juice, sugar, a butter substitute and a little run or brandy."
Her recipe for barbecue sauce omits fancy ingredients, too, though she suggests looking in the cupboard for spicy seasonings that fit the family's taste.
"Just mix together one-half teaspoon of salt, two tablespoons of sugar, one teaspoon of dry mustard and dissolve this in one-fourth cup of vinegar. Stir in one cup of tomato ketchup and add three-fourths cup of water," she explained. She bakes the sauce over spare ribs.
"I call it glamorizing with merchandising." Mrs Worth explained. The Y.W.C.A. representative looked more subdued and said, "It takes remarkable ingenuity."
Carmen Miranda Hits Hawaii; Shows Natives The Samba
Hollywood (U.P.)—Carmen Miranda wiggled home from two weeks in Hawaii and reported confidently recently "thees hula-hulas ees daid. Now they all gonna samba like Carmen."
"I tich 'em," she gurgled. "All thees gels they beg me show 'em and I betchu by now the whole island ees up to pineapples in sambas."
Translated, this probably means the "Brazilian bombshell" taught her native wiggle to a bevy of South Sea beauties. Carmen gets real enthusiastic about things.
“五ive sousand pipples mitt me at the airport,” she sighed. "I'm so happpe, honeste, I get all choked up enn my eyes. Ees like that everee-where—so mane pipples."
But it's no exagregation to say she hit Honolulu like a baby A-bomb with curves. She was the hottest thing the old islands have seen since the invention of the sarong—and they made the most of it.
And if Carmen didn't exactly kill the hula "daid" - her popularity came tragically close to having that effect on some of the "pipples."
"Ees night of my beeech show," she explained. "They all crowded like any-theeng on beeg outside bleachers. Pipples stacked op and all squeezed together.
"Jos before I getting ready to go on I hear terrible noise. I ask wot gveees? Everybody try to keep eet from me—say eet ees noshing."
"But I know shoemteen terrible bad going on. And you know what? Bleachers have collapse and pipples squashed down like puddings. . gels scrimming. . boys crying. . ees terrible!
"Police come, . . and doctors, . . and feex 'em op wech bandanas to stop the blood. I try to sing haappe—but I all weeply inside. Later they tell me nobodies got killed so I cheer up a leetle bit."
Carmen towed home a dozen keys to Hawaiian cities. And beach-boys loaded her down with straw hats, overflowing with orchids.
"Maybe I flex one up in a Carmen headdress," she winked. "Be good

nombah, No? Maybe I even hula for the pipple. They teach me good over there."
And if this leaves you in the dark on who taught whom what kind of a dance, that's the typical reaction to Carmen's conversation.
