A warning for picnic lovers, carnival-goers and those planning special gatherings in the Summer - toxin producing bacteria may be lurking in the potato salad. 1 Salmonella, staphy­ lococcus and per- fringens are responsible for the majority of food poisonings, said William Hallenbeck, Dr. P.H., of the School of Public Health, University of Illinois at the Medical center, Chicago. The names, he said, may not sound familiar, but minor cases of food poisoning are common. To avoid ruining memories of those outdoor events planned this summer, follow the proper handling, preparation and storage procedures. Handle food as little as possible. The more food is handled, the greater the chance for contamination, said Hallenbeck, an associate professor of en­ vironmental and oc­ cupational health. Hands, utensils, cutting boards and countertops should be clean and bacteria free. When the air temperature in the picnic cooler is bet­ ween 30 and 40 degrees fahrenheit bacteria are inactive. Food stored in airtight containers and submerged in ice water can be held safely for up to three and a half hours. "Icepacks are not effective coolants, unless they come in direct contact with foods," ac- If the taste of summer fruit in winter sounds appealing, don't let fresh plums escape the marketplace too quickly. They combine in a delicious Pear and Plum Jam that will provide eating pleasure during the months ahead. Although fresh fruit has ftdfcne natural pectin, it often requires commercial fruit p«Ctin to 'good "set" -- in this case liquid fruit pectin. A short boil of the prepared fruit combined with sugar is the only ciboking required to preserve the fresh flavor of the fruits. Pear and Plum Jam 4-1/2 cups prepared fruit 7-1/2 cups (3-1/4 lb.) (about 2 lb. fully sugar ripe pears and 1-1/2 2 pouches fruit lb. fully ripe plums pectin w and 1/4 cup water) First prepare the fruit. Peel and core about 2 pounds pears. Grind or chop very fine. Pit about 1-1/2 pounds plums; do not peel. Cut in pieces and chop. Combine plums and 1/4 cup water in saucepan. Bring to a boil; cover and simmer 5 minutes. Combine fruits and measure 4-1/2 cups into 6- or 8-quart sauce pot. Tken make the jam. Thoroughly mix sugar into fruit in saucepot. Place over high neat, bring to a full rolling boil and boil hard 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and at once stir in fruit pectin. Skim off foam with metal spoon. Ladle quickly into hot jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of top. Cover and process in boiling water bath for 5 minutes. Makes about 8 cups or about 9 (8 fl. oz.) jars.

"Food poisoning's symp­ toms usually are not severe enough to require a trip to the emergency room, but strong enough to make the victim miserable," he ad­ ded. Symptoms can include nausea, cramps, vomiting, diarrhea or fever. The incubation period (amount of Ume before symptoms appear) varies for each type of bacteria: staphylococcus, 90 minutes to eight hours; salmonella, six to 48 hours; and per fringens, nine to IS hours. An attack may last up to 48 hours, depending on the type of bacteria involved.

HOSPITAL NOTES For information and ap- lication, write Natalie mergluck, 6807 N. Ked- vale, Lincolnwood, 111., 60646. plii Imi Guided by her native common sense and by the inflationary economy, the American woman, fully aware of fashion trends, will adopt Fall-Winter, 1981 designs to fit into her lifestyle and her budget. It is to this woman that the majority of womenswear manufacturers are ad­ dressing their efforts. It is to this woman, often involved in a career or community activities, that investment dressing is of major im­ portance. Fashions made from updated, imaginative, long- wearing wools and wool blends will most often be the first choice of this large and discerning sector of women because wool epitomizes t i m e l e s s , t a s t e f u l dressing...especiallythe new wools that can be found in a wide selection of weaves, weights, colors and color combinations... wools and wool worsteds that can be strictly tailored and superbly detailed...soft, light woolens that fall into the new gathered skirts, the gently rounded jackets, the feminine suit...robust, weather-beating fabrics that are the backbone of the touted big wrap coats, capes and enormous shawls called the Big Sweep. Sophisticated, luxe wools, especially in black, are decidedly urbane when trimmed with satin or elegant silk braid. The most traditional wools, the flannels, shetlands, tweeds, crepes, twills and gabar­ dines, are there for the woman seeking value and lasting quality, but they will be made exciting and in­ novative with brushing, * twisting, unusual weaving of varying thickness of yarn or made interesting with unique patterns. Fall color preferences are non-colors with off-white, the new neutrals and black leading the way and, of­ tentimes being used together. Dusty colors in darker mauve, rosy clay, loden green and muted blues to blue-greens look confident and well-mannered while traditional brights, yellow, red, green, violet and French blue add seasonless cheer and ebulliency to a wardrobe. Taupe, lilac and purple crop up frequently and brown from sable to caramel will have a year of triumph. The 1981 wardrobe selection will not be a game of chance. Fashions and colors must be useful to the wearer's way of living. And that means investment clothing for women made from versatile, oftentimes 10-month fabrics, woolens and worsteds. Speed Fair Auction News about plans to speed up the Livestock Auction came recently from Lloyd Getzleman, chairman of the popular Saturday noon event at the McHenry county fair. "We realize the auction has taken too long, and we are implementing steps to expedite the sale of livestock," he said. "I want to make special note of this because some buyers plan to arrive only for hogs, for example, or cattle, and I don't want them to be disappointed. Sheep sales start the auction. "In the past, the auction has dragged sometimes, and the committee is aware of this. That's why extra help is planned and added facilities are being set up, including such small but important extras as a place to take the photos of the champions outside the show ring," he said.

REASON 10 The new regional medical center will attract more highly qualified medical and health professionals to McHenry County and offer the area 120 new jobs. The new medical center will be the largest single employer in McHenry County. It's construc­ tion and presence will add much to the local economy and commerce as well as provide a reason for new businesses and industry to relocate in the area. The new facilities will help us attract highly qualified patient care providers and retain the staff which presently serves area patients. It will add much to the quality of life we have all learned to expect from this area. Action needed ... now! Recognizing that time is a critical factor in the cost of the project, it is most important that we begin to build the new medical center as soon as pos- * sible.
