Add Nutrition
To Meals
With Fruit
An easy way to get fruit into
your family’s daily menu Is to
serve It with the meat. Peaches,
pears, or apricots are great
heated at the last moment and
used to garnish the meat plates;
they add color and flavor and
important nutrients. Spiced
fruit Is another good addition
to any meat platter. Spicy ap-
plesauce, chilled or warmed,
Is a natural with ham or pork,
but equally Interesting with
corned beef or hamburger. Of
course, cranberry jelly always
goes well with chicken, but, for
added nutrition, serve It on
slices of fresh oranges. Instead
of mint jelly with lamb, spiced
pear halves would enhance the
nutrition of this entree.
Most nutritionists agree tnat
four or more servings of fruits
and/or vegetables are needed
dally and these are some of the
appetizing ways to Include fruit
In the dally menu. Fruit sherbet
Is a welcome coldness when eat-
ing hot entrees. It’s made with
fruit juices and milk and so
adds not only the tart taste of
fruit but also the nutrients In
the milk. Baked bananas (baked
in or out of their skins) when
sprinkled with zippy lemon Juice
also go well with most any en-
tree; banana fritters are fine
with ham or sausage. Baked or
fried apple slices or quarters,
seasoned with spices and lemon
juice, can be served with all
entrees. Apples baked with
mincemeat are a surprise with
turkey and apples stuffed with
sauerkraut are good pork com-
panions! Most any kind of fruit
can be paired hand-ln-hand with
almost any meat entree—nutri-
tious and eye-catching, too!
Club's "Father
Y-Teens
Conference
Underway
A conference does not have to
be a series of dull, sit-down
meetings. Four San Antonio
teenagers will discover this
for themselves when they rep-
resent the local YWCA at the
Texas-Oklahoma Conference of
Y-Teen clubs in Wimberly, June
19-24.
The girls, all representatives
of junior and senior high school
Y-Teen clubs, are Rosemary
Hernandez and Grade Molina,
Harris Junior school; Jacque-
line Blackman, Brackenridge
High school; and Gloria Gon-
zales from Lanier High school.

enjoy ail the recreational ana
social aspects of rescrt living
at the 7A Ranch while attend-
ing the six-day conference.

opinion on such serious topics
as racism, sex, religion and
ecology will be interspersed
with relaxing activities like pic-
nics, hikes and swimming.
Louise Locker, YWCA Y-
Teen director, who accompan-
ied the quartet, reports that
‘‘they are eager to attend, talk,
listen and report back to their
clubs." What they learn will be
put to positive practice this
coming fall when the Y-Teen
clubs are re-activated for the
school year.
