Which was a reminder that -al -

The secret of light, tender pan-

If you happen to like your pan-
cakes, as so many do, of the whole
wheat variety the procedure is air
most the same as the above. The
only difference is that you should
pse an extra half -teaspoon of bak-
ing powder with the whole 'wheat
flour, and the vanilla can be omitted
it you wish.
If Dr. Gallup or some of teh
other Public Opinionosers were to
conduct a survey- asking the ques-
tioat. "Whit is the favorite of all
desserts?" chances are that about
90 per cent of the male sex would
answer "PIE". Yet so many who
are really good cooks in many other
lines sort of fall down when it
conies to making a pie crust so
tender and flaky that it fairly melts
in the mouth.
So here's the Bever -fail, beginner -
proof recipe which turns out just
about the best crust you ever

They Make Rackets
As A Business
A kiss Ott ,sack Belrly's program
draws applause and laughter, from
his studio audience. 'Television
might show the reason; a sound.
affects man before a microphone
noisily sticking. his. knuckles, as en.
grossed and serious as a youngster
tackling his all -day sucker,
When Rochester starts the motor
of his boss's Maxwell, or when
,lack opens his underground
strongroom, much of the audi-
ence's laughter and applause is
again for the sound -men, this
time wiedling a fantastic collection
of sirens, squeakers, motors, and
other noisemakers.
Such comedy routines don't have
to be convincing, but on a more
serious program the radio listener
must be able to identify what he
hears with the intended effect. Rec-
ordings were made during the Lon-
don blitz to give audiences gen.
uine explosions and bomb whistles.
If a radio play needs the noises of
a cotnttry evening, some vrifortun-
ate sound expert will spend a windy,
damp night out of doors to capture
the effects required!
Yet sometimes authentic sounds
aren't "realistic" enough. Radio's
job is to givy the listener what he
believes he hears, not what he
actually heats. The human ear is
selective; with the mind's help it
can "tune out" the noises it isn't
interested in. What the audience
expects from radio is not always
the real thing, but a vague com-
bination of sounds they believe to
be familiar.
For example, the soar of auto-
mobiles un a busy city street be-
comes meaningless noise when
broadcast. Instead, recordings of
but a few horns and 'automobiles
are used, so that the sounds are
readily recognized,
No matter how enthusiastic,
sound men are not allowed to
smash down the nearest studio
door when the hard-boiled de-
tective crashes into a bad -man's
hideout; crushing an ordinary
wooden berry box is equally
realistic. When the sound of fire
is required, the illusionists crumple
and crush a ball of cellophane be-
fore a microphone.
Before the war, it is said, crowd
noises for radio plays were really
the recorded shouts of Japanese
baseball fans, which were played
backward!
