Chefs at Villa Teo

Amidst a hanging garden of stainless
steel cutlery, Chef Bill Neal sliced neatly
through a slab of veal. Restaurants are
being taken over by frozen food
corporations," he said. "There aren't
any more cooks, just tnawers. Here at
the Villa Teo we make everything from
scratch."
Neal takes pride in what he serves. He
tastes each dish like the typical famous
chef, but here the similarity ends.
There's no white floppy hat on Bill's
head. As a matter of fact, the Villa Teo
kitchen has broken a number of
traditions: "There's not a trained cook
here," Neal said, "but four of us
graduated from Duke."
Jake Cederstrom, with an M.A. in
English, rolled crepes around a mixture
of shrimp, scallops and red snapper.
"I'm working here because I get a
paycheck every two weeks," he said.
"But it's nice getting paid for something
I enjoy doing."
Paul Wintcrhoff started washing pots
While in graduate school at Carolina. "I
got an opportunity to cook one day and
I've been doing it since."
Why does Neal, only one course away
from an M.A. in English, find cooking
so fascinating? I taught for a while," the
chef said, but in teaching you can never
be sure of the results. A kid can cheat on
a test or have memorized just for a day
what you've asked him to learn. In
cooking, what's done is done. You can
see the results and if it's right, you know
it." .
Neal has been cooking seriously for
only 2Vi years. What he didn't learn
through experience, he read in books.
"Most cook books are just recipe
collections," he noted. "There are only
two real cook books. The Making of a
Cook by Madelaine Kamman and Julia
Child's The Art oj French Cooking. I'm
a great fan of Julia's; she really tests her
recipes."
Cooking never gets boring according
to Neal. He even cooks on his day off.

Cooking from scratch
Which brings up the question, what
exactly do cooks eat at home? "Mostly
bologna sandwiches," he said, laughing.
Actually, Bill's wife cooks part time at
the Villa and they eat a lot of their meals
there.
The Villa's continental menu starts
with appetizers like vichyssoise and
escargots; main meals include rigatoni
and roast duck. The chef gets many
compliments, but there have been a few
complaints. "Usually, customers want
their vegetables cooked more," Neal
explained. "I boil my vegetables until
they are tender. They should have
texture as well as taste, and when they're
not cooked so long they're -better for
you. If they want vegetables that have
been cooked to death, they can go to any
Southern cafeteria."
"1 wouldn't mind being a cook the rest
of my life," Neal said. "It's challenging.
You have to use your mind and it's
physically demanding. And like I said,
you get to see results."

fne story ox the
I There are several Italian Bicycles in the area, some better than others, but all stressing good
handling, lightweight, and high performance. However, there is only one bicycle in town designed
by a world record racing team. Fausto Coppi was twice world champion, five time Italian National
'Champion, twice winner of the Tour of France, and five-time winner of the Giro D'ltallia. His
bicycles were built by the master frame craftsmen of the Fiorelli factory in Moto Velo, Italy. Their
only business is making the world's finest racing bicycles. In 1 968, the world hour record was set on
a Coppi, and now the complete line of Coppi bicycles is available in Chapel Hill. If you want quality in
your bicycle frame, there is no substitute for a Coppi.
"Fausto Coppi is recognized as the greatest cyclist to date ... No other
champion can match the infinite variety of his victories and his honor list...
Coppi's method was very simple: attackto reduce the peleton to ribbons, attack to
shake off the weakers, attack to get rid of anybody else... Above all the climbers
Coppi was extraordinary... Coppi the racing cyclist still reigns supreme"
(From "Continental Cycle Racing" London, 1970)
"Of all the famous names in cycling history, none is held in greater esteem
than that of Fausto Coppi ... He became the sporting idol of the continent of
Europe."
(From "Faust Coppi. The Campionissimo")
WORLD FAMOUS CHAMPIONS WHO RACED WITH THE COPPI BICYCLE: Coppi, Italy;
Shotte, Germany; Koblet, Switzerland; Kubler, Switzerland; Robic. France; Gaul, Luxemburg;
Ritter (set world hour record on a Coppi in 1968), Denmark; and many, many more.
"CoppL.tbicycles) are light, fast, stiff, steep. Made in Italy with Columbus
tubing, expensive and worth it. The Coppi is manufactured by Fiorelli Bros, who
made bicycles for Fausto Coppi, the Eddie Merckx of the fifties... An entire Coppi
line of bikes is racing oriented... The feel of the bike is worth many psych-out
points at the start of a race. It feels fast and very responsive, reassuring and
stable during high speed cornering. The frame is well assembled, runs true and
shows good attention to such detail as filing of the lugs."
'The Coppi was meant to be a racing bike and is an excellent one... All the
Coppi does is go fasti

Special to the DTH
If dogs could talk, what would they say? I
think that they would have a lot to say, and.
that their words would shake our traditional
thoughts about our friends in the canine
kingdom.
Let's be truthful with ourselves for a few
moments, and maybe Without all this ego
tripping at the expense of a minority group
we can make the world a better place to live.
Everyone at one time or another claims to
love dogs. But who are we kidding? Who
hasn't said, I went out with a real dog last
night," or "this food isn't fit for a dog." Dogs
have been suppressed and degraded all
through history. A honky phrase, which is
constantly used by "the man," is thatDog is
man's best friend." But this isjust like saying
"some of my beast friends are dogs." How
many of us "short snouts" could truthfully
say that "Man is dog's best friend?" Look at
how we exploit dogs. Would anyone even
consider using a huskie Puerto Rican to pull
a sled or a have a long-nosed Israelite sniff
out a desperado? NO! But we are content to
use dogs to do this and more! Just imagine
forcing swift-footed Negroes to race after a
mechanical rabbit in Florida and then
when one does use his own initiative to catch
it, he is disillusioned by its falseness and
retired to stud-dom. The most disgusting
level of debasement is reached when house
dogs are considered living garbage disposals
and are starved into eating table scraps that
even a rat would have second thoughts about
eating. (Nothing personal against rats.) So
let's all face the fact that dogs are considered
inferior in this dog-eat-dog world. The next
time we throw a stick, we'd better check out
our o.wn heads before telling one of these fine
"Canine-Americans" to "Go fetch."
In recent years many people have given
much thought to the question of why
"Hairs," as they prefer to call themselves, are
considered inferior. In reflecting upon this
subject, 1 came across three common
misconceptions about "Hairs."
Human chauvinists' main issue against
dog equality is the supposition that canines
are stupid and cannot speak. But these are
ridiculous arguments. Of course dogs can't
talk...no one ever taught them how or even
attempted it! Everyone took it for granted
that they were too dumb. This is not true.
Look at Rin Tin Tin and Lassie. No one
would doubt their intelligence, but the only ".
difference between them and the average dog

is schooling. This is one way in which we
oppress dogs, by not offering them public
education. We figure that we'll let sleeping
dogs lie, thus avoiding a busing issue and
high-income dogs moving in next door.
Another misconception which taints the
dog's image is hjs cleanliness. Many racists
feel that dogs are physically dirty. In this
argument I would have to agree that he is
dirty, but it isn't dog's but rather man's fault.
Man subconsciously made it impossible for
dogs to use any of the modern. washroom
facilities used today by man. Wash basins are
too high for most dogs to reach and even if
they could reach them the water fixtures
would be hard to control, and many dogs
would scald themselves. The shortcomings
in toilets are obvious, and unless dogs could

stand on their hind legs for a relatively long
time, the showers would be almost
impossible.
A grave problem which faces dogs today is
the family unit. Since dogs are owned like
slaves, there is usually no father around to
help the mother bring up the pups. This
attaches a shiftless image to the male dog and
brings about a large number of unwanted
pregnancies to the females. Our society
intensifies these problems by not supplying
abortion centers, prenatal care from city
paid veteranarians, homes for unwed dogs
and day-care centers. This situation forces
many female dog? when approached by a
male for sex, to say "Gnats to you. buddy."
These males become quite ticked off and are
forced to the curbs for sex.
This week has been set aside by the United
States Government as "Be Kind to Dogs
Week." I would hope that the arguments I
have presented will compel you to take a dog
to lunch tomorrow.

controversy over the sex and color of God. I
