Broadway Musical Star
Enjoys Cooking Chicken
By MAM IAIMN
New York ? Miss Jane TVh? i
taught me how to cook a dwdkew.
Long, ljng ago she attempted to
teach me now to sing a song. For
i he good or nil ni.?r.kird that effort
was a failure. ?' is nice ihjfc she
continues s.ng.L^.
This Georgia girl, who sang the
lead in the Broadway musical, "Re
gina" and who later sang on the
recording of "Chamber Music So
ciety of Lower Basin Street,"
played in Broadway musicals.
"When *he talked to me she wa?
concerned with chicken cookery
. . . and she knows how. She says
it is the only tiling she knows how
to cook.
"You have to have a very deep
fat," Miss Pickens said. "Most
people don't like this . . . because
women resent fat. You make a
mixture of flour, salt and pepper
and roll the chicken in it. Then
you put the chicken into the deep,
hot fat and fry it briskly.
"After awhile reduce the heat,
then allow the chicken to drain on
brown paper."
Miss Pickens said her mother
used to emphasize that the fat
should be so def*> that Hie chick
en need wot be turned.
"For cream gravy," said Miss
Pickens, "pour off most of the
fat from the chicken add a table
spoon or two of flour jvhen it is
brown, and add skimmed milk to
the right consistency."
Miss Pickens added that she
likes hot biscuits with her gravy,
an understandable combination.
When she started as one of the
three Pickens sisters, Jane played
in shows wMch, perhaps, were
never ideally suited for her. But
she was a member of a sister trio
and it was only when "Regina"
came along that she could break
away and become a single artltft.
"Regina" was not a big hit on the
Broadway stage, but it won early

West Glacier, Mont. ? (AP) ?

ceding -
A U. S. Geological Survey staff,

acres. In 1900 the ice mass cov
ered 840 acres.

park naturalist, said the present
year was favorable to glaciers. Ear
ly spring snow lasted through the
summer despite a warmer than
usual July, Annual precipitation
at the glacier exceeds 100 inches.

Gilman, 70, still working as a diver,

a friend in South Carolina asked
him to help on a dam construction
job.
Gilman was the man above the

to show up. Gilman went down
and he's been diving ever since.
