PAGE 4 THE SKIRL FEBRUARY 16, 1954 Campus Clubs And Capers By Audrey Milligan The William Bartram Scienti fic Society has really been work ing during the past week or two. We appreciated and enjoyed their splendid chapel program which gave us some of the facts about polio, some of its symptoms and some preventive measures that have been and are being used. This program was presented by Ellen Howard and Frances Shaw. Programs such as these prove helpful to those of us who do not keep up as well as we should with the happenings in the field of science. Keep up the good works, girls; we appreciate it. The Student Volunteer group, organized to promote interest in world missions is planning a re treat at Camp New Hope near Chapel Hill on March 6 and 7. The purpose of this retreat will be to interest other colleges in the Student Volunteer Movement, and to try to encourage them to set up organizations on their cam puses. It is hoped that there will be a reprefentative from each of the North Carolina colleges and universities. The principal speaker will be Miss Benita Biswas from Pak- histan, who is travelling for the Student Volunteer Movement. Miss Biswas will be here at Flora Macdonald March 27-29. We will be hearing more from SVM next time. IRC Holds Annual Birthday Party The International Relations Club’s annual birthday party is to be February 24 at 6:45 p. m. in the college parlors.

The Birthday Party is one of the major highlights of IRC events each year, and all the members are looking forward to a delight ful evening. 0 Frosh And Sophs Plan For Dance BAKED PLUM PUDDING tournament by the captain, Carol Jones, instilled great zeal in the team to try hard to win the tour nament. -0- OBEY THE TRAFFIC LAWS BelfeHensdale Red Springs, N. C. $ Parker Neon Co. ^ A Complete Sign Service For centuries the English have served plum pudding at holiday time, and it is a real part of the festivities. But it is as welcome in our homes today as it was in the castles of the feudal English lords and in the cottages of their serfs. Plum pudding has always been a wonderful way to say Merry Christmas and a Very Happy New Year. A big plum pudding, topped with lots of creamy-rich buttery hard sauce is a perfect ending to any festive meal. And when both the plum pudding and the hard sauce have that extra-special fla vor that only butter can contrib ute, people will be sure to come back for a second piece. For but ter is one of nature’s most flavor ful foods and it retains its nat ural flavor throughout any cook ing process. Instead of steaming this pud ding, the batter is baked in a . ring mold or a spring form pan in the oven. It’s easy and quick to prepare, and tastes as if you have spent hours working on it. Bread crumbs form the base, and there are raisins, dates, currants, and candied orange and lemon peels in it in addition to orange juice for moistness. Butter and confectioner’s sugar are the main ingredients for the hard sauce, which can be put in the center of the ring if desired. When you’re planning to serve a number of people, increase the recipe one-half and you’ll have a pudding that will serve sixteen, for it takes only a small piece of this delicious cake for de^ sert, it is so rich. In this case it will have to be baked longer, however. For a snack at tree trimming time, this pudding is without equal. It can be prepared in advance like a fruit cake and kept for weeks in aluminum foil. If it is then baked in the oven in its aluminum foil, it will be just like it was when originally made. BAKED PLUM PUDDING 2 qt. ring mold—8-10 servings 250 degrees, 50-55 min. 1 cup sugar V2 cup butter 6 eggs % cup orange juice 1 cup chopped dates * cup chopped lemon peel Vi cup chopped orange peel Vi cup currants % cup light raisins V2 cup dark raisins 1 cup pecans 2 Tablespoons flour 2 cups bread crumbs 2 teaspoons cinnamon V2 teaspoon cloves Vz teaspoon allspice Sift the sugar. Cream the but ter and add the sugar to this. Beat.the eggs in one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine the chopped fruit; pe cans, and flour. Add to the egg mixture. Combine the bread crumbs and spices and add this to the batter. Add the orange juice and pour into a greased waxed paper lined 2 quart pan. Since this cake does not rise, the batter can fill the pan. Bake for 50-55 minutes in a 250 degree oven. Serve warm with hard sauce. HARD SAUCE V2 cup (1 stick) butter Pinch of salt 1 teaspoon vanilla 2 cups sifted confectioners sugar Cream the butter and add the salt and vanilla. Then add the sifted confectioners sugar and mix well. Chill and serve. Plum pudding and hard sauce combine as a perfect duo for any and all holiday entertaining. 9 Si Phone 28316 - 143 Maxwell St. | ^ Fayetteville, N.

Plan to meet your capsule tonight at 10:15 on the second floor in the ro tunda at which time punch and dookies will be served. Capsule Day, symbolic of Flora Macdonald fellowship, has been observed for many years. It is FMC’s way of celebrating St. Valentine’s Day. Happy Valentine, capsules! o Jo Drummond should be more careful next time that her date knows what time to leave. Re cently she came upstairs to sign in and when she went back down stairs he had already left! When Marlene’s “one and only” came by one night last week he gave some of the girls quite scare with that big hump in the back of the ambulance. In case some of you have won dered about the little Crosley sit ting out behind the conserve-^it belongs to Anne Turner and its name is “Peps”—You know that advertisement—“More bounce to the ounce.” There’s nothing like these peo ple who do things on the spur of the moment. Like Mary Mac and Mary Hale who one minute were sitting on the bed studying and suddenly decidecf to go to Wilmington; then the next min ute they were on the bus going there. Of course they had to get up at five o’clock the next morn ing to come back but didn’t seem to mind that too much. 0 Funeral Of Dead Spirit By Joanne McMillan The captain and some of the members of the freshman basket ball team held a surprise gather ing for the other team members on February 3 in Mrs. Neighbor’s classroom.
