Perfect pork loin
_M.rn.By Ethel Moore,
A pork roast with rum glaze and yams
could be the perfect answer to a special
fall menu. Lean pork is nutritious and
satisfying for even the most
discriminating appetites. Paired with
yams, berries and nuts, this is a great
main dish meal.
For a different taste, our zippy roast
with a sweet and sour sauce, pleases.
Enjoy!

attending. The sport that many
predicted would die out, fading
to the increased popularity of
football and buried by TV, has
come back stronger than ever
in our affections.
It has been the most exciting
baseball season in years -a
season that, even when it was
over, was not over. The Red
Sox led their nearest
competition by over 10 games
until the last month, swooned
in September and then came
back to tie the Yankees and
force a one-game playoff.
During the dreadful September
collapse, the statistics on child
abuse and wife beating in
Boston soared. The old man
comes home from work tired
and hot, has a few beers,
watches the Red Sox get
creamed and takes it out on
the kids and wife. Who says
baseball is only a game? In
Boston, it's a sacred tradition.
In the West, the most
exciting story was the San
Francisco Giants, not because
they won the championship --
they finished third behind the
Dodgers and Reds - but
because of their enormous
improvement. They held first
place most of the season and
broke the all-time major league
record for one-run victories
with 42. It was a rare Giants
game that didn’t go right down
to the wire, heart in throat, as
the San Francisco attendance
soared from 700,000 in 1977
to 1.7 million this year.
Friends of mine made a
novena to Brother Junipero
Serra, the California missionary
priest who’s up for sainthod in
the Catholic Church; they
promised that if he could make
the Giants win the pennant (a
true miracle!) they’d tell the
new Pope about it. But the
Giants died and the Pope soon
followed, and poor Junipero
Serra will have to come up
with other miracles if he wants
to make the grade.
Humberto Cardinal
Medeiros, archbishop of
Boston, stepped out of the
conclave that elected Pope
John Paul long enough to ask
an American journalist for the
score of that day’s Red Sox
game. Hearing that the Sox had
won, he smiled and said,
“Thats be to God.”
Sister Margaret, who teaches
first grade at St. Joseph’s
School in San Francisco, told
Giants announcer Lon
Simmons that she has her
students say prayers, recite the
Pledge of Allegiance to the
Glag and sing the Giants fight
song before class.
It all seems crazy, but that’s
how we are about our national

pastime. Like Argentines with
their soccer, we simply to nuts.
We imageing that nine players
on the field actually represent
the city they play for, even
though they may all live
somewhere else and may be
playing for a different team
next year.
Rod Carew, who’s feverently
Jewish, Black and Panamanian,
is easily the most famous
Minneapolitan in Minnesota,
notwithstanding the racist
remarks of the Twins’ owner,
Calvin Griffiths. Philadelphia
Mayor Frank Rizzo, who
recently urged voters to “vote
white,” nonetheless supports
the Phillies’ many Black
players. And in Boston, your
typical Dorchester racist finds
no contradiction in hating
“niggers” on the one hand and
loving Jim Rice on the other.
For all the overtones of
religiosity, baseball can still be
a nasty matter.
The public nastiness this
year was mostly concentrated
in New York and Los Angeles,
the cities that also spobt the
strongest teams. Dodgers Don
Sutton and Steve Garvey had
their highly-publicized fist
fight, and Yankees Manager
Billy Martin was fired, then
re-hired for the 1980 season.
But savvy observers in New
York are predicting that Martin
won’t be back. Red Sox
pitcher Bill “Spaceman” Lee
called Manager Don Zimmer
“the gerbil,” and found himself
dropped from the rotation.
And then the World Series.
Yanks and Dodgers fans had
their moments of hysteria
while millions more watched
with controlled degrees of
passion. The outcome of these
games was the least interesting
aspect of them. The fact that
they’ve been played is the only
important thing. That we’ve
been able to kill three hours
every day in the idle watching
of 18 men furiously charting
the course of a small, hard,
white spheroid over a diamond
and green fields in the
endlessly yellow October light.
That we still have our national
ritual. That we’ve sung “The
Star Spangles Banner” in our
hearts even when we’re too
cynical to sing it out loud.
We cling to the World Series
because it is the end. After
baseball comes winter and
death. Ice and snow will cover
the green fields and early
darkness will descend on our
days. No heroes will appear to
give us hope and light. We pass
into a Lent-like state of waiting
- scheming - “next year. ’
“See ya in the spring.”

Combine corn syrup, light rum, spices
and salt. Pour 2/3 cup of this glaze into a
saucepan, add the 14 cup butter and heat.
Stir until blended.
Cut yams into quarters, place in a
shallow baking pan along with the
cranberries and nuts. Pour the hot glaze
over them and bake in the oven for the
last 45 minutes that the pork will roast.
Brush the remaining glaze over the pork 3
or 4 times during the last hour of roasting
time. Serve hot, with the yams
surrounding the meat. Serves 6 to 8.

RELAXATION
ODDITIESHELPFUL TIPS
By Joy Miller
A well-loved game is tennis
and though it came to us
from England in 1873, Amer
ica now boasts well over 10
million active players and
more than 150,000 courts,

The greatest crowd at a
regular tennis match was
25,578 at the first day of the
Davis Cup Challenge Round
between Australia and the
United States at Sydney, Aus
tralia, in 1954. The favorite
drink among tennis players
this year is the Wimbledon
Whistle, made with Seagram’s
Gin and Schwepp’s Bitter
Lemon with a slice of orange.

A deuce of a tip for your
backhand is to hold your
wrist stiff during the swing.
The racket should be almost
level when the ball is hit.
In the follow-through, the
racket is well out from
the body and brought beyond
the right shoulder.
