The former Marilyn Wilson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ted Wilson, who also reside in the from WR'ras Township “High School where she was especially interested in sports and the out- of-doomgg and seldom gave serious thought to cooking and recipes. However, at her mother’s insistence she spent time in the kitchen learning fo prepare special dishes and to plan meals. Today, with a family of three grown boys and a girl in high school, she has found the early lessons of her mother’s to be most valuable; in fact, she continues to turn to her for recipes that have been in the family for years. Marilyn, who is food distri- butor and cashier at Dallas Senior High School, has found fakes ‘‘stick-to-you’’ dishes to Satisfy the appetites of her sons and husband, all over six feet, who not only ‘eat to live’ but “live to ‘eat.’ And although her daugher, Sharon, like all teenage girls, watches her diet, she too likes home- cooked foods-—not pre- packaged, but ‘‘home-made.” Melvin Jr., the eldest, is a college senior and looks for- ward to weekends at home to enjoy his mother’s and grand- mother’s cooking; Kenny is with the U.S. Army in Korea and is eagerly awaiting return to the States and his discharge from the service so he can come home for some of mother’s and ‘‘Nana’s’’ special dishes. Gary, who is studying food and restaurant management in college, still'prefers Nana’s and Mom's * cooking, and Sharon, student at Dallas Senior High School, is learning to prepare tasty dishes under the tutelage mother. Among her collection of recipes, Marilyn has many special entrees, hors-d’ouevre, and desserts she prepares for entertaining guests on special occasions, but her favorites are those she has from her mother. Recipes she describes as ‘old standbys’’—‘‘tasty but sub- stantial, the kind mother used to make.” (In her case, mother still does.) A Post reporter had the good fortune to drop in when Marilyn and her mother had just finished making old fashioned sticky buns and can attest to their being tasty and sub- stantial. The recipe for these as well as several others, Marilyn agreed to share with Post readers.

Costing about $30,000, the vehicle would @ enable otherwise immobile patients with opportunities to travel and see special events.
