THY BAKING TWO CHERRY CRUMB PIES
WHILE OVEN MEAL FOR SIX IS COOKING
by the
General Electric Consumers Institute
How about preparing a delicious
oven meal for your family and at the
same time baking an extra cherry crumb
pie to freeze for future use?
It's easy to do in a single oven, using
a menu of decorated ham loaf and
gravy, baked potatoes, and baked fro
zen corn, says the General Electric Con
sumers Institute.
The meal for six can be served pip
ing hot from the oven.
Ready to serve hot from the
oven is this meal of ham loaf,
baked potatoes, and baked fro
zen eorn with two cherry crumb
pies baked at the same time.
On the lower rack of an oven at
•400 F, place six medium-sized potatoes,
a 2-quart Pvrex casserole of frozen
corn, and a ham loaf in a 9*/2 x 5% x
2%-inch aluminum pan. The potatoes
should be placed in the front and the
ham loaf and casserole in the back.
The two pies go on the front section
of the upper rack in 9-inch Pyrex
dishes. They may be put in at the start
of the oven meal baking period or after
20 minutes, since they require approxi
mately 20 minutes less baking time.
When the meal is done, turn the
oven off. Invert the ham loaf on a
Pyrex or heat-resistant platter and re
turn it to the warm oven. *
Cut a cross on the top side of the
potatoes and gently press the potatoes
to soften and to push some of the po
tato up through the opening. After put
ting one tablespoon of butter or mar
garine on top of each potato, place
them in a 12% x 8 x 2-inch baking dish
and place them back in the oven.
Make gravy and serve the meal hot
from the oven.

Bargaining Agent
Certified for DEW Line
SEATTLE UPi — The Fairbanks
Joint Crafts Council, a group of
13 AFL-CIO craft unions, was cer
tified today as bargaining agent
for employes of the Federal Elec
tric Corp. on the Distant-Early
Warning Line in Alaska
Patrick Walker, acting National
Labor Relations Board Regional Di
rector, announced the certification,
after checking out challenged bal
lots in a recent election by the
employes.
Walker said the employes cast
106 votes for the joint council and

Japanese Hook
Found in Halibut
PETERSBURG — A Japan
ese halibut hook and piece of line
have been reported recovered from
a halibut taken Friday.
Fishing a few miles out of
Petersburg near Horn Cliff, the
skipper of the vessel Lanoire, Aril
Mathiesen, made the fmd and re
ported it yesterday to the Peters
burg Press. Horn Cliff is on the
mainland of Alaska protected from
the ocean and international waters
y the islands of the Alaska Pan
handle, over 100 miles wide.
Mathiesen said the hook and line
were in good condition, and al
though the hook was recovered
from the stomach of the fish, it
had not softened from digestive
action indicating the fish had been
on Japanese gear not too long ago.
Mathiesen said the find was sig
nificant in establishing that Ja
panese halibut fishing in the Ber
ing Sea and outside the three mile
limit, can effect the habiut stocks
on inside waters.
Per boat load catches have been
averaging lower this year than
last year for American fishermen.
