Mrs. Tollie Eugene Evans Opportunities offered to Jacksonville area Passavant's Diet Recipes New Each Week People whose doctors recommend modified diets often are confused by the term dietetic foods, according to Mrs. Colleen Seely, therapeutic dietitian for the Passavant Hospital Association, who prepared and checked the recipes for this column. Foods labeled dietetic are processed by special methods.

For example, dietetic vegetablee are processed without the sodium added in normal processing. They are, therefore, useful in sodium-restricted diets. "Dietetic ice creams probably are the most ill-used of the special products," Mre. Seely said. "Careful label reading shows that they have as many calories per serving as regular ice cream.

The only difference is that table sugar (sucrose) is replaced with another sugar (sorbital)." Diabetics should not eat dietetic ice cream as desired; onehalf-cup servings of regular vanilla ice cream may be used occasionally as an exchange for one bread and two fats, Mrs. Seely said. The green bean recipe below may be used by persons on sodium-restricted diets. The fruit ice recipe is suitable for diabetic menus, providing it is worked properly into the meal pattern.

1 Hendrickson Do you ever wish that you had kept up your violin or trumpet playing on which you spent SO many hours during your school days? Do you ever want to get away from canned music on TV, or records, and watch some live people? You can do both in Jacksonville. The city abounds in musical opportunities, and has done so since the first Philharmonic Society for amateur and professional musicians flourished in the 1860's. If you would like to play music and sharpen your skills, you can join the Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra, which puts on a program of high quality concerts during the months. If you like to sing, you may join the community chorus which cooperates with the Symphony Orchestra in putting on an annual oratorio. You will also be welcomed with open arms by your church choir director.

If barbershop and popular sing. ing your bag, you can try out for the local chapter of the S.P.E.B.S.Q.S.A. which offers choruses for men, The Fairest Wheelers, and women, The Sweet Adelines. Jacksonville could offer greater opportunites for music making if leadership could be found for a municipal band to revive the great traditions of band playing that goes far back into the city's history. We could also have happy chamber groups and jazz combos if interested people could get together.

Live Music The Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra of fifty players, with a professional conductor gives three full length regular concerts, cooperates with the community chorus in giving an oratorio, presents a pops concert, at intervals, gives concerts for children. Jacksonville also has a fine high school band that gives seasonal concerts. The school orchestra is also first-class. Jacksonville is fortunate that it has a program for string instruments. We think teaching, of the school band and orchestra as the playing of musical instruments by children.

Those young people who are good enough to get into the band or orchestra are really talented musicians, and their performances are well worth the attention of those who enjoy live music. Our colleges play an important part in the musical life of the community. Illinois College has a and good band made up of students who enjoy maintaining the music making pattern of their high school years. MacMurray College has a department of music that trains students to become music teachers and performers. quently its music recitals by the teachers and experienced students approach professional quality.

Through the year fine band concerts, choir shows, and individual recitals offer the community the best of music in each category. MacMurray also has a strong piano and organ department, and in Annie Merner Chapel is one of the finest organs in the state. The best of professional music is brought to this city by the Jackson Music Association. The finest instrumental and choral ensembles, as well as outstanding vocal and instrumental soloists with national and international reputations appear in Annie Merner Chapel.

But that like most silly fashion rules has faded away. Winter white is one of the season's most popular noncolors. Hooded jackets, fuzzy sweaters or accessories like bodysuits and tights are pure white. For an interesting effect, try white on white, accenting a white lambs wool sweater dress with white pearls. Do It with Wood Wooden beads are ideal for making your own jewelry.

The beads can be kept in their natural condition, varnished to a glossy shine or dyed with regular clothes dye to set off the season's bright colors. Mary Gretchen ALEXANDER Mr. and Alexander route one, announce ing marriage of their daughter, er, son of Mr. and Mrs. A.
