ON-THE-SPOT SANDWICHES ARE BEST AT PICNICS Sandwiches prepared at the picnic site seem to $core hits with hungry picnickers. Mrs. Dorothy Mclvor, University of Illinois foods specialist, suggests that you avoid limp, soggy sandwiches by taking an assortment of sandwich spreads, fillings, breads and rolls so that each person can concoct his own. Baked-bean or chili 'burgers are a change from the usual picnic fare. Heat opened cans of baked beans or chili con carne. Put in buns, bread or crackers and top with catchup or chili sauce, pickle nelish, cheese slides, onion rings or lettuce leaves. Make chunkettes by cutting French or Italian bread into chunks one inch thick. Toast on sticks and eat with peanut butter, cheese spreads, deviled ham or tuna sandwich spread. You can put toasted cheese sandwiches on your picnic menu by toasting cubes of cheese on a stick and putting them in toasted buns.
