It took only a short time as a homemaker for’ Jeannette to realize that ever-increasing prices were making it necessary for her to find a way to stretch -their family budget. She made up her mind that the one place she could economize would be in meal-planning. “I'm not really a good cook,’ Jeannette told the Post. ‘At home my father did most of the cooking and since I went to work in the early afternoon and didn’t come home until late, I never worried too much about preparing meals. But my husband enjoys eating so I had to learn fast, as well as learn to prepare dishes that not only would be filling but that he would like.” Jeannette enjoys the out-of- doors and when the weather turns warm, she spends most of her spare time waterskiing at Harveys Lake. In season, she can be found tramping the fields and woods for small game, or deer-hunting with her father. However, despite her claim that she knows little about cooking, she has shelves of home-canned fruit and vegetables she ‘put up’ this past summer and fall, and her husband, Andy, attests to the tasty dishes she has learned to prepare. Cooking should be easy for her, since for the past number of years she has managed Bernie's Pizza on Memorial Highway, Dallas, where she can put together a ‘pie’ that is ‘‘right on’. Many of her friends who have visited in her new home have enjoyed her cooking and do not hesitate to talk about the At a time when housewives across the country are protesting the high costs of meats and other foods, Jean- nette has learned to prepare dishes that are both tasty and inexpensive. The Post Cookbook prevailed upon the young homemaker to share some of her recipes. She has done so with the reminder that she has learned through trial and error, and that some homemakers may prefer more or less seasoning.

The concert was the last Theatre 3 production of the 1972-73 academic year. Founded in 1498 by Imperial Decree of Maxmilian I to sing at his church services, the Vienna Boys’ Choir has retained its religious tradition by singing at the religious services of the Hofmusikkapelle and at St. Stephen’s Cathedral in Vienna. The travelling choir appearing at the Irem Temple retained their tradition by beginning the concert with religious music, including selections from The religious selections were quickly followed by a comic opera in one act, entitled, “Tales From Old Vienna’’, and based upon the music of Johann Strauss. The boys played all the roles in the opera, including the girls’ parts, using their best could follow the plot. The opera had a certain flair, particularly so, when one would hear phrases like, ‘“‘He’s a real ding- a-ling’’, spoken with a thick German accent. For the last segment of the concert, the boys sang Austrian folk songs, including Schu- mann’s “The Soldier’s Bride” and Bartek’s ‘Song of the Lazy Bones”.
