The Guild is holding weekly luncheon meetings on Tuesday at the Ely Cafeteria. Ernest A. Swanson, Jr., has been elected vice president and Miss Ina Turner, secretary and treasurer.

Pennsylvania Rites For Professor

Funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon in Harrisburg, Pa., for Prof. Warren B. Longnecker, 58, professor of mathematics at the University of Miami, who died in that city on Saturday. Professor Longnecker was a member of the University faculty from the time of its opening in 1926. Because of his interest in mathematics and the pre-engineering program, he was scheduled to assume the rank of professor of engineering and mathematics at the opening of the new School of Engineering this fall. Born in Hershey, Pa., in 1888, he obtained his training at Penn State College. He was a member of the American Institute of Electrical Engineering, the American Mathematical Society and the Presbyterian Church.

NO THRILL?

It was somewhat of a thrill for 11-year-old Nancy Lee Smoot, but nothing unusual, who completed her first plane trip home from Orlando, Saturday, all by her self. Visiting her little friends, Beverly and Ginger Brown, daughters of the Paul H. Browns, who recently moved to Orlando, from Richmond, Va., Nancy was greeted at the airport here by anxious parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles B. Smoot, who beheld their calm and collected daughter descend the plane's runway, as if it were the steps of a bus.

Two Dogs Are Rescued By Fishermen

Two valuable bird dogs, Pat and Jim, owned by EAL Pilot Jerry McCully of Schoolhouse Drive, South Miami, were rescued Saturday morning from drowning after swimming much of the night in Biscayne Bay. Around 6:30, Dr. Arthur Wellesley of Coral Gables, and Pilots John Ahlfeld and William Weisbroek were fishing in "The Pelican," when Dr. Wellesley noticed two dark moving objects, about a mile and a half from shore, which he thought were turtles. As he steered the boat nearer, he saw they were the heads of two exhausted dogs, which tried to swim toward the boat. When the man pulled them in and dried them, they showed their gratitude in almost human fashion. Though they eagerly ate portions of the fishermen's lunch, they refused to drink any water. They rested on the cabin bunks until the boat returned to Coral Gables around 4 p. m. The fishermen saw from the tags on the dogs' collars that they belonged to Jerry McCully, whom they knew, so they brought them back to their anxious owner. Sunday they were none the worse for their harrowing experience except that each had a paw scraped raw.

MARKETING with Marjone

"Be prepared" is a good motto for the good old summer-time, when guests are apt to drop in unexpectedly. So here are some delicious dishes you can fix at your leisure and keep in your refrigerator for such emergencies. ICE CREAM This chocolate ice cream made with rich WHITE HOUSE EVAPORATED MILK from the A&P is grand to have on hand. Shave 2 squares unsweetened chocolate into top of double boiler. Add 1 cup WHITE HOUSE MILK and 16 whole marshmallows. Cook over boiling water till well blended; cool and add 1/2 tsp. vanilla. Whip 1 cup chilled WHITE HOUSE MILK till stiff; fold into mixture. Pour into cold freezing tray and freeze at coldest setting. When partially frozen, stir well and continue freezing. Serves 5. SALAD STANDBY 6 for lunch? Cook an 8-oz. package of A&P'S ANN PAGE ELBOW MACARONI (see package directions); drain; chill; add 1 tsp. salt, 2 quartered tomatoes, 1 medium onion (chopped), 1/2 green pepper (chopped), 1 hard-cooked egg, 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1/2 head Boston lettuce, pepper and paprika. Toss lightly. SIMPLE SANDWICHERY Sandwiches make perfect spur-of-the-moment snacks ... and MARVEL SANDWICH BREAD gets them off to a good start. Guaranteed fresh daily, every loaf gives you plenty of thin, smooth-spreading slices. You'll find this thrifty bread only at A&P. And what a find it is! FROSTY FAVORITE I don't think there's a more refreshing warm weather drink than rich, tangy A&P GRAPE JUICE mixed with an equal quantity of ginger-ale. And this heat beater looks as if it came straight from the North Pole when it's served, well iced, in glasses with frosted rims. To frost, I let the rims stand 1 minute in a saucer containing 3/4" strained lemon juice, then 1 minute in a plate containing 3/4" sifted powdered sugar ... and, being careful not to jar the sugared rims, store the glasses in my refrigerator till the sugar sets. Inviting as an igloo!
