15 to avoid conflict with several other happenings scheduled for the 8th. BY HELEN HALE Mainly Salads Salads with a protein food like Ash, cheese, meat or fowl do well for the main course. They offer a distinct departure from the main dish, but can be hearty, especially when served with a mug of soup. Shrimp combines well with diced celery and chopped hard- cooked egg. Add some chopped pickles to it with horseradish- seasoned mayonnaise.

Salmon can be molded in a bowl if well-chilled. Combine with diced celery, lemon and onion juice and mayonnaise. Serve with sliced, hard-cooked egg, cucumber slices and watercress. Cold roast lamb is compatible with a teaspoon or so of chopped fresh mint, cooked green peas and diced cooked potatoes. French dressing does best here.

Leftover duck? Combine with drained mandarin orange sections, green grapes and French dressing seasoned with lemon juice or tarragon vinegar plus a little more pepper than ordinarily. Serve with ripe olives. Sliced chicken or turkey go with boiled ham rolled with India relish. Serve with green pepper circles, olives and potato chips.
