Take your sandwich to the back yard whore you could join a neighbor and review the pleasant summer trips and vacations. Or, head for the game with a tailgate picnic. Plan for the edibles to be simple, plus neat to eat.

We have a suggestion for one of these. Take along a knife, a slotted spoon, some napkins and paper cups and you’re ready to load up and go. We all know to- expect good prices and fine cuts of pork when the cool days come around and we have included cooked pork in our picnic. Today’s pork is leaner and meatier than ever so it requires a shorter cooking time. Pork roast should be cooked at an, internal temperature of 170 degrees for the most tenderness, juiciness and flavor. Use some of the leftover pork roast for these take - along Pork Sand wiches. Take-along Pork Sandwiches 1 lb. thinly sliced cooked pork (26 to 30 slices) 1 medium onion, thinly sliced and separated into rings 1 cup fresh mushrooms, sliced 1 cup peeled, seeded, chopped tomato V 4 cup snipped parsley 2 tablespoons capers, drained x h. cup white wine vinegar 1 teaspoon dried leaf oregano, crushed Vt teaspoon dry mustard Vz teaspoon garlic salt Vi teaspoon freshly ground black pepper Vt teaspoon fennel seed IV4 cups cooking oil " 1 loaf (1 lb.)

Mix well. Gradually add oil, whisking until mixture is well blended. Pour over meat mixture. Cover and chill several hours or overnight. Slice top third from loaf of bread. Hollow out bottom section of bread, leaving one inch around edges. In small bowl, combine softened butter and Dijtifi style SECTION B mustard. Spread mixture inside of bread loaf and on bottom side of cut slice. Line with leaf lettuce. To serve, lift meat and vegetables with slotted spoon from marinade into hollowed loaf. Sprinkle with additional snipped parsley. Replace top of loaf. Slice crosswise in thick slices. Makes 6 servings. To transport the sandwich to picnic site, place marinated meat mixture in a large plastic bag. Go ahead and hollow out the bread loaf and spread inside with mustard mixture. Pack all in the picnic basket. Pour your favorite sangira in vacuum bottle. Ask the friends who are accompanying you to bring chips and some fudge brownies to complete your picnic. When you want to include a traditional fall vegetable with dinner, but don’t have time, serve Stuffed Acorn Squash. Corn bread stuffing makes this fall favorite extra special and your microwave oven makes it extra quick. Once you mix up a batch of corn bread, this delicious dish is only minutes away.

C. General Assembly. The unspoken concensus of both administration and legislative sources in Raleigh now seems to be that the mini-session to convene on October 5 was never really needed. "... especially when you realize that the items they are talking about are - well, hell, they’re taking up things that have nothing to do with the federal budget,” said one frustrated participant in the process. The General Assembly, back in July, decided to put off major revenue decisions until they could “better interpret” the then current federal policy shifts in state funding. As everyone is aware, federal funding policy shifts are still underway in Washington. Probably more telling is the fact that the governor has said that federal cuts in state funding will be passed along to the various state departments and eventually to the former recipients of the monies. The legislators have not raised an outcry to address those federal cuts and to re distribute the funds according to their (the legislators) interpretations Stamp Collecting Month “Discover Stamp Collecting - The Hobby of a Lifetime,” is the theme of the first annual National Stamp Collecting Month, to be observed October 1-31, Postmaster James M. Bond, of Edenton, said today. “The fall observance will include issuance of a special souvenir card, unusual post office lobby displays and philatelic items especially designed to attract newcomers to the hobby,” Postmaster Bond continued. “Millions of Americans recognize that stamp collecting generates increased knowledge of geography, biography, history and science. Children who engage in this hobby have a good time acquiring new or used HHhb.

According to one legislative observer, the lawmakers would rather leave those decisions to President Reagan and Gov. Hunt. Gov. Hunt has suggested rightfully so, that he has no choice but to leave the decisions to President Reagan. Regardless of who gets blamed for the federal cuts at the recipient level, the items up for discussion in the mini-session are admittedly far-removed from the attention-getting federal reductions. Hunt press spokesman, Brent Hackney, says the state pay raise and the alcohol tax increase are the big items on the governor’s agenda. “We’ll also be asking for a little over $2-million for emotionally disturbed adolescents and maybe a few other housekeeping odds and ends,” Hackney said. Hackney said the bill to phase out the state inventory tax is still alive in the Legislature as well. “The governor is for the bill in principle, but doesn’t believe it’s feasible now,” Hackney said. There are those in leadership positions in both the Senate and House who believe the bill should become law now. Most observers agree that the agenda for the mini stamps, and the hobby stimulates their intellectual growth. Teachers tell us that boys and girls frequently use their stamp collecting information in preparing and presenting class projects. The Postal Service is sponsoring the month-long observance in cooperation with the Council of Philatelic Organizations (COPO) which includes national, regional and local organizations involved in all aspects qf%tamp collecting. A number of local collateral activities are also being planned by Edenton adult and youth stamp clubs, school and library administrators, community service organizations and government leaders. session will be considerably longer than the three or four items mentioned here, but it’s for sure that the agenda won’t include anything resembling a re-evaluation of federal budget cuts. PAY RAISE ... It could be that the ever-tough question of a state pay raise had more to do with the creation of the October mini-session than any of the federal budget cuts. “After the gasoline tax hike, they just weren’t ready for the pay raise,” said one observer. For the record, however, Gov. Hunt is standing behind his projections for state revenue and his suggestions for a pay raise for teachers and state employees. Projections and suggestions that were made back during the regular session. Hunt’s projections call for a 12 per cent sustained growth in state revenues. Last week he said that he preferred that about $lO9- million of the projected revenues be used in picking up the tab for retirement benefits of state employees. That would result in about a 5 per cent across-the-board “in-pocket” increase for state employees. To use the projected $lO9- million in an across-the board pay increase of 4.3 per cent would reap only a 2.8 per cent “in-pocket” raise. Basically, it’s the payment of withholding taxes that constitutes the difference in percentages. Experts in the Legislature say they feel sure of only a 10 per cent sustained growth in state revenues. The two per cent difference between administration experts and legislative experts has caused some lawmakers to offer much less in a pay raise than the governor has suggested.
