Home Ec Tea Yesterday Features Alfalfa Tea
By Emily Mumford
Alfalfa tea spiced and flavored with fruit juices and mint, sandwiches, and a variety of cookies provided refreshments yesterday afternoon when the home economics department held open house from 3:30 to 5 o'clock. This occasion, carrying on a tradition in the department of entertaining University women with a tea, also proved an opportunity for interested persons to visit.
kitchens and dining rooms.
Kitchens and dining rooms.
The Home Economies clubwomen who are at this time making a special study of graham breads and cookies were in charge of that portion of the refreshments.* Alfalfa tea, which Miss Edna A. Hill, chairman of the department, said is not particularly new, but nevertheless interesting, was chosen as rather apropos, considering the expected shortage of imported tea leaves.
"Alalfa, common enough in Kansas, has in the past been used as a green and as a beverage and its high content of vitamin A is common knowledge." Miss Hill commented. "But just how much of the food value of alalfa is soluble is not known, so we cannot expect to get many of our vitamins by drinking alalfa tea. That we can get some in this manner is undeniable. At least it is not stimulating and for persons who are denied tea because of its caffein content, this substitute could be safely employed."
Miss Hill stated that for the beverage yesterday, the women of the department had made Russian tea, using the inexpensive alfalfa as base. "We didn't spice the tea with the idea of masking the flavor, but
with the idea of making a drink the guests would enjoy. To be used as hot tea, unspiced, we should obtain more nearly ripe alfalfa—near the stage of blossoming. We plan to do further research with the riper leaves, then standardize our recipe so that anyone who would like it, might have it. In making refreshments yesterday we used a peck of alfalfa that we had washed and dried, and with it not more than a dozen oranges and lemons, some mint and spice." This made enough for the 300 guests.
The unspiced alfalfa tea has a taste unlike green tea, but somewhat similar to it. Miss Hill expressed the belief it wouldn't be any more difficult to develop a taste for alfalfa tea than for the ordinary green variety.
Jonquils and forsythia formed the centerpieces at the two tables. Miss Elizabeth Meguiar, adviser to women, and Dr. Florence Sherbon, professor of home economics, poured.

Nash, professor of education, spoke yesterday on "The Areas of Emotional Conflict of a High School Girl" to a group of senior women students, as part of a series of lectures sponsored by the Y.W.C.A. and the School of Education.

Lawrence Theaters Lower Prices Sunday
(continued from page six) entiation resemble initiation ceremonies, which prospective members are sometimes forced to undergo. The practices, however, seem to come not at the beginning but at the end. Unless it is considered that the individual needs to be initiated into his after college life.
Whatever the reason, or even if there isn't a reason, straw hats, canes, green shirts, white jackets, and tell-tale brief cases help the under-classman to identify the seniors.
Stan Schwahn of the Lawrence theaters has just announced new theater policies and price reductions for all Lawrence theaters, effective Sunday, April 5th. Stan Schwahn feels that these new policies will be well received by all patrons.
The Jayhawker will present two changes in programs weekly. Sunday, three days and Wednesday, four days. The matinee prices will continue as at present, 25c plus tax, a total of 29c; and the evening and Sunday shows will be slightly reduced from 36c to 34c, including all tax.
The Granada policy will be three changes weekly. Sunday, three days, single feature. Wednesday and Thursday, single feature. Schwahn states that the majority of patrons would much rather see an outstanding single feature with selected short units to diversify the program than they would a double bill. Especially so since the producers are cutting down on the number of pictures produced and spending this money on single features. In other words the numerous priorities effecting production has automatically compelled them to make bigger and better pictures. This fact will be evident when you see the outstanding quality and great stories on these Granada single feature programs.
The present Bond Night will be moved from Monday-Tuesday to Wednesday-Thursday and will be a straight cash award of $25.00, being added each week. Anyone registering on the Wednesday show will be eligible for the Cash for Bond awards, at 9:00 p.m. on Thursday. On Friday and Saturday the Granada will present a program of two first run features. One of these features will be an outstanding western. Stan Schwain states that this Friday and Saturday change to westerns is due to the fact that westerns with real star value are becoming more popular. The established price for all shows for the entire week will be 25c plus tax, a total of 29c.
Effective Friday, April 10th, the Varsity will go to one change weekly. The same high quality double feature program that has been playing the Varsity Sunday, four days, will play Friday, Saturday and Sunday only. The prices have been
20c matinee and evening for this program. On the new policy, prices will be matinees 15c plus tax, evening and all day Sunday 20c plus tax. The Varsity will be closed four days each week, Monday-Tuesday-Wednesday-Thursday, with this change of policy.-Adv.
