Mary Lasswell
One Of
Today's Women
By DOROTHY ROE
| Associated Press Women'’s Editor
If you want to see a red-haired
woman get fighting mad, just ask
Mary Lasswell whether she thinks
women should choose a home or a
career,
Says the bouncing author of
just-published “Wait For The
Wagon” and other adventures of
the lusty, beer-guzzeing Mrs. Ras
| mussen:
| “The character who first thought
up that argument is the kind of
| a guy who would put maple syrup
on eggs.”
Any woman worth her salt, says
the energetic Mary, should be able
to manage a rich and zestful home
life with her left hand, while
juggling half a dozen assorted
careers with her right. That way
you don’t get bored.
There is nothing thwarted about
our Mary, who was launched on a
hectic literary career some ten
vears ago with publication of the
best-selling “Suds In Your Eye”
recounting the hilarious adven
tures of three elderly and mildly
alcoholic ladies, Mrs. Feeley, Miss
Tinkham and Mrs. Rasmussen,
These three irreverent charac
ters have wound their rambunc
tious way through five books to
date, including “Mrs Kasmussen's
Book Of Cne-Arm Cookerv”, con
sisting of recipes designed to be
prepared with one hand, while
holding a mug of beer in the other.
Having won Blue Ribbons in
the various careers of wife, home
maker, cook gardener, bon vivant
and author, Mary Lasswell now is
at work on a full-fledged five~
: ring musical called “Lonely Star,”
i set in the republic of Texas in the
| year 1836. :
{ - This versatile volcano is writing
i both book and music, while cook=
ling on three stoves and ail Lrun
ers in her vast kitchen at Old Fort
: Farm, the Lasswell shack in New=-
‘ port, R. L.
This is how she described the
lbirth of a musical:
“Well, my husband (Lt. Com,
lClyde Lasswell of the U. S. Navy)
brought half a dozen Navy officer
| friends brme.for the weekend and
.1 was playing this tune. They
wanted to know what it was, so
I said: 'lt’s the start of a new
l musical I'm writing.’
{ “That night we all went out
| celebrating, and the next morn
’ing I had to make 100 pounds of
. fruitcake. The boys all helped, and
| in between times I wrote the other
nine songs of the play. They're
all terrific.”
She is completing the book while
i cooking Clicken Cacciatore, gin
| gerbread, praline cake and chili
‘con carne the wayv they like it
down in Texas, ma’am.
i This fixation about Texas may
seen odd in one who lives in New~
| port, but it’s easily explained.
| Mary’s grandfather was one of the
insurgents who helped declare
lTexas a republic some time back,
| and her father, W. R. Lubbock,l
t was a Texan born and bred. with
i short side excursions to South As- ‘
| rica and Scotland, where he met !
i and wed Mary’s mom. Mary her-]
| self was born in Goxan Parish,
| Scotland, during a brief stopover
| in her parents’ globe-trotting, but
' they all wound up safe and sound
' on the Lubbock Ranch, back in |
the heart of Texas. ,

low baking dish and cever with a
cheese sauce and bake in & mad

1t just so happens that the plas
tic wrapper from a package of
cigaretts is exactly the right size
to protect a 8 by 5-inch recipe card
from becoming stieky and
smeared. Break the seal at the top
of the package without pulling the
little red tear-tape and remove the
wrapper carefully. Fold the edges
over the recipe eard and stick
down with plastie tape.
