y Weather
Outbreaks of food poisoning
generally occur during hot,
humid weather and usually
follow Ticnics, warns Mrs.
Laßue liefne r, extension
foods specialist.
At home, foods are refrigerated
and protected against the devel
opment of bacteria that causes
spoilage. But when transported to
picnic areas and held for several
hours, foods may become warm
and. are then susceptible to dan
gerous spoilage, Mrs. Hefner said.
BACTERIA NEED warmth and
moisture for growth, so soft moist
foods such as salads, custard pies,
etc., provide ideal conditions for
rapid growth, she added. Acid in
foods retards bacterial growth,
but low-acid foods require very
careful handling for bacteria
grow quite readily 'on them, she
continued.
Sandwiches, salads, meat, eggs
and cream filled or custard pies
and cakes need refrigerator temp
eratures until you are ready to
eat the food, Mrs. Hefner ex
plained. The chilled foods can be
carriesl in insulated containers to
picnics, then kept cold until eaten,
she said.
Mrs: Hefner said that foods
must be kept either very hot or
very cold. It is the lukewarth
temperature, which is most dan
gerous, for at this temperature
(50-120 degree Farenheit) bacteria
multiply rapidly, she warned.
COOKED FOODS, such as meat
loaf; soups, stew, and casserole
dishes should be cooled rapidly
and kept cold until reheated, Mrs.
Hefner said.
''Food may seem to undergo no
visible change when it is contam
inated and therefore one should
avoid eating anything that might
be prone to bacterial growth," she
warned.
Food prepared in large quan
tity may stay warm in the center
for a long time while being cooled.
Mrs. Hefner said that this can be
prevented by cooling large quan
tities in 'several small containers
or spreading them out so that
they will cool more quickly.
Penn State is believed to be
the first school to adopt the Moun
tain lion as a symbol.

Well, Almost
The full name is finally being
displayed on McKee Hall. For
several weeks the identification
had been Kee Hall. The "Mc"
added in blue paint this week,
was reportedly the work of two
girls living in the hall.
University officials said the
i reason for the unfinished name
was that when the letters for the
'hall were received the C was not
the required lower case. The cor
rect letter had been ordered, they
said.
