Don’t -be surprised if the grocer asks you’, “Any frozen -milk to day?”. A new method of milk preserva tion is now 'being developed at the College dairy by Joseph G. Leeder, graduate . student,. and Professor Francis Jr Doan, dairy manufac turing specialist, which may make it.possible for housewives and in dustries to buy frozen, concen-. trated milk just as they now buy frozen meats and vegetables. The milk may be kept in. the freezing compartment of the re frigerator and reconstituted for ta ble 'or cooking use by adding -hot water. One pint of frozen milk makes approximately three pints of liquid milk. When cooled again, the milk looks and tastes very much like fresh, whole milk. Frozen milk takes up less trans portation and storage space. Un der present curtailed deliveries of fresh milk, frozen milk will aid in providing the consumer with an adequate supply until the milkman calls again. It will keep as long as two or three weeks. Using the principle of ice cream manufacturing, the milk is rapidly frozen-in an ice cream freezer, after being .pasteurized, concen-/ trated,\ and homogenized. The amount of air whipped into the milk is considerably less than in ice cream, but what air there is aids in‘the ; defrosting-process. : Penn Sfa*e Club Offers fraternity Men-Socfal .: Facilities; Membership ; To alleviate the lack of social facilities ' . for , those -fraternity : members who -have given un their houses- for . army use, \ the Penn State Club has. offered, it’s club room in 321 Old Main, according to.
