Chicken And Rice Mexicana
Rice Council Photo
Fresh tomatoes, green pepper, onion and chili powder give
Chicken and Rice Mexicana its southof-the-border flavor.
This is the kind of main dish to cook in and serve from your
prettiest casserole. Brown the chicken in the casserole or cook it
and the vegetables in a separate skillet before transferring them
to the casserole. Then put with the remaining ingredients in the
baking dish, cover tightly (using foil if the casserole doesn't, have
a cover), pop into a moderate oven and forget it for half an hour.
Even though you might be tempted to peek into the casserole
during cooking, it is strongly recommended that you do not.
"Don't peek" is a standard admonition in all rice cookery in
structions, and the reason is simple. Rice cooks to its best when
steamed not boiled and when the cover of the saucepan or
casserole is lifted, steam'fcscapes and the rice has less chance of
turning into tender and separate grains.
To add to the Mexican theme, serve with a guacamole salad,
salt sticks and for dessert, wedges of fresh melon cantaloup,
honeydew and watermelon.

In Detro
Michigan Gov. George Rom
ney ended a two-week-old state
of emergency for Detroit and
four suburbs on Sunday. At the
same time, National Guards
men were gradually withdrawn
from Milwaukee, Wis.
But new trouble occurred in
Pittsburgh, where scores of Ne
gro teen-agers went on a rock
throwing, window smashing
spree when there were no bus
ses to take them home from a
rock-and-roll concert early Sun
day.
Police Superintendent James
A. Siusser said there were no
racial overtones to the disturb
ances and "there was no
hostility or anger displayed to
ward policemen."
Tension eased in disorder
plagued Wkhita, Kan., and in
South Providence, R. 1., a 1 a.m.
to 6 a.m. curfew and a ban on
liquor sales were lifted in an
area where rioting broke out
last Monday and Tuesday. .«
In Wichita, a fire bomb set a
dry goods store ablaze in a pre
dominantly Negro neighborhood
Saturday, causing damage esti
mated at between $50,060 and
SIOO,OOO.
Romney said he ended the De
troit emergency after meetings
with local and state officials led
him to conclude that "recent
days and nights have indicated
a return to normalcy in the
metropolitan area."
N.C. Wheat
Allotment
Announced
North Carolina's acreage
allotment for the 1968 wheat
crop has been set at 451,645
acres, W. B. Denny, state ex
ecutive director for the
Agricultural Stabilization and
Conservation Service, has an
nounced.
This compares with the 1967
allotment of 519,587 acres and
the 1966 allotment of 393,286
acres.
The 1968 national wheat allot
ment of 59.3 million acres com
pares with a 1967 allotment of
68.2 million acres and a 1966
allotment of 51.6 million
acres.
As indicated in the an
nouncement of the national
allotment figures, the 1968
acreage allotment with
average weather—would provide
a crop of approximately 1.5
billion bushels.
Mumps—
Swollen Jaws?
Be Careful
Mumps is a virus infection of
the parotid gland, one of the sali
vary glands, immediately below
the ear lobe and behind the angle
of the jaw, says Today's Health,
the magazine of the American
Medical Association.
The best sign of tnumps is a
tender, smooth, firm swelling that
covers the corner of the jawbone
where it turns upward toward the
ear. the magazine reports.
Mumps in a child is usually
only mildly incapacitating and
moderately uncomfortable. Many
cases in children are so mild as to
go unnoticed by parents. A mild
medication for fever and the dis
comfort of mild headache and
muscle aches may be used as
needed.
Normally the child recovers
in live to seven days.
In the teen-ager or adult
mumps is more serious. The virus
is more likely to involve other
areas such as the pancreas, and to
result in nausea, abdominal pains
and severe food or fluid intoler
ances.
The tendency for mumps with
its attendant pain to settle in the
ovary or testicle is well known.
The chance of sterility is highly
and emotionally overrated, how
ever. Physicians usually prescribe
complete bed rest for adults with
mumps. Greater physical activity
brings greater chance of compli
cations.
Mumps is not excessively con
tagious and almost direct contact
with the afflicted—such as drink
ing from the same cup or being
sneezed at—is required to contract
the disease.
One can get mumps twice, but
it is a rare occurrence. Most cases
of "mumps the second time" were
the result of previous misdiag
nosis of swollen neck glands from
an infected throat. Odds are about
one in 400 of having bona fide
mumps as a repeat illness.
Mumps cannot be prevented
at present, but recent research
promises a vaccine soon.
Skin Diving—
An Unusual
Stress Cause
Skin diving enthusiasts are
gaining thousands of new recruits
each summer. Thousands of Amer
icans of all ages and both sexes are
spending summer weekends ex
ploring lakes and streams from the
vantage of the fishes.
From the medical standpoint,
physicians say that diving makes
demands on the body which arc
unlike those met above the sur
face.
Navigating under water is
heavy exertion and those with res
piratory problems or heart and
blood vessel disease should not
attempt it, says Today's Health,
the magazine of the American
Medical Association. Diving is
ruled out for those with perforated
ear drums. Ear plugs are for sur
face swimming only and should
not be used for diving because of
water pressure. The depth changes
also require that sinuses and ears
be in good shape to equalize the
pressure.
Asking your doctor to evalu
ate your fitness for diving is a pre
caution that will pay dividends.
Along with good health, the po
tential diver should be a better
than average swimmer. A moder
ately skilled swimmer can dive
with SCUBA equipment, but in
an emergency the swimming skills
born of long practice and good
physical conditioning may mean
the difference between survivaland
death.
| Never dive alone, the AMA
J advises. Use a buddy system and
I be certain that your buddy is com
| pctcnt and trustworthy. Learn to
| use artificial respiration and see
that your buddy knows it. Plan
your dives. Know where you're go
ing, how deep and how long you
can stay under. Work out a system
of underwater communication sig
nals for emergencies. Never dive
when you arc overly tired, have a
told or arc just not feeling well.
Use quick release buckles on
j weight belts or SCUBA harness.
You may need to cut loose and
surface quickly. Don't indulge in
; horseplay and take needless risks,
j Watch out for boats while in the
water. The power boat skipper
may not know you're there.
Watch your depth. Pressures
mount rapidly as you descend.
Don't hold your breath while as
cending. Air will expand inside
your lungs and should be allowed
to bubble out as you are coming
up.

Heed these Hints for House-hunting
NEW YORK (CFN) Ever see a woman buying herself
new shoes? She tries them on in a rather gingerly, critical
fashion, walks in them at length in a "show-me" sort of
way, and then examines the workmanship inside and out.
When a woman is sold ,on a pair of shoes, she is really
sold!
A woman buying a house is
something else again. Not
knowing exactly what to look
for, she's inclined to leave the
whole thing up to her husband,
and then feel miffed if the
house doesn't live up to her
expectations.
Because a house is the largest
investment most families ever
make, it deserves a good, long
look. Women in the know deal
with a reliable broker, prefer
ably one recommended by a
satisfied client, and limit their
search to houses well within the
family's means.
Generally speaking, it is wise
to keep the cost of the house
within two-and-a-half times the
family's annual income, accord
ing to The Travelers Insurance
Companies. In estimating
annual costs, be sure to anti
cipate taxes, any specific
assessment charges and pre
miums for the best home
insurance you can afford.
Determine, too, the cost and
availability of water, electricity,
gas, telephone, sewers, street
lights and garbage collection.

much as possible about the
schools they will be eligible to
attend.
As for the house itself, the
important considerations are
efficiency of the plumbing,
heating and electrical systems.
The latter should be capable of
handling all of your appliances
as well as any you may wish
to buy in the future.
Essential, of course, is that
the house be structurally
sound. To determine this, check
the roof, attic and basement
beams and condition of all walls
and ceilings. Take a careful look
at the siding, and check for
solid, tight window sills.
Women in the know who have
found a desirable house waste
no time in encouraging their
husbands to buy. It's true that
mortgage rates are, at present,
rather high but forecasts do not
suggest that they will be ap
preciably lowered for some
time.
Meanwhile, property rates
will probably continue to rise.
There seems little to be gained
by waiting and much real satis
faction to be lost.
