Recipe contest winners taste rich
T he quantity and quality of recipes
I received was encouraging; I
thank everyone who took the timhe to
send in their recipes (I received over
70), especially the women's field
hockey team, who sent in more than
20 recipes. I also have to thank White
Market, for providing prizes. Since I
received so many entries, it was im-
e as
-
possible to prepare all of them. I se-
lected several that I thought showed
exceptional potential, and cooked
them up. Almost all the entries satis-
fied the four college food groups -
cheap, easy, fast, and good - so I
lookedforrecipes with awideappeal.
Both winners (and the honorable
mention) satisfied this final criteria.
Since I'm graduating, this is my last
column - thank you again for all
your letters, recipes and encouraging
words. Good luck in the kitchen.

The worst of. the worst on your television
by Stephen Henderson
D avid Letterman gets a crack at
doing the top ten every night on his
show. So, I figured I'd scrape to-
gether a top 10 list of my own -- in
keeping with Weekend etc.'s motif
this week.
But then I realized that I'm not
David Letterman, and I'certainly
don't host a top-rated talk show. In
fact, I'm just some two-bit TV
columnist for a weekly college pa-
per. Moreover, my editors would
never give me the space to be as
funny as Letterman. So I've settled
on a mediocre compromise: my take
on the five worst things about the
tube:
5. Beverly Hills 90210:
No "worst of" list would be
complete without this show, which
would best even a nationally broad-
cast KKK rally as the whitest show
in America. This show's producers
never even make a token effort at
showing that anything other than a
bunch of WASPs live in this coun-
try. In one episode, however, the
show's stars did venture to "the bad
side of town." And if I see one more
adolescent male with Perry, Priestly-
like sideburns, I'm gonna shave
them off with a rusty knife.
4. The Jerry Springer, Jenny Jones,
Montel Williams, Maury Povich
and Sally Jessy Raphael shows:
Whatever happened to standards? It
was bad enough when Oprah and
Geraldo got their own shows, but
with the recent onslaught of prying,
probing, talking heads preaching
down to "teenagers who can't wait
to get plastic surgery," it seems like
any schlep can get their own show.
the little plctvre
And who's next? I certainly don't
relish the day when one of the net-
works gives local anchor Bill Bonds
his own soapbox. (Don't look now,
but he's been talking about it)
3. Hammer Man Cartoon:
Pleeeeeze, Hammer, don't hurt us!
This obnoxious addition to ABC's
Saturday morning lineup proved to
be more egoistic than Hammer
himself. His poorly drawn and
animated cartoon character fends off
the villains in "Oaktown" by dan-
cing with two talking, laser-shooting
shoes on his feet. ABC has thank-
fully given Hammer the ax next fall.
2. American Detective, Cops, Top
Cops, FBI: The Untold Stories,
Rescue 911:
This new show genre flooded the
small screen the past year in an ob-
vious, pathetic attempt to restore
some of our shaken faith in autho-
rity. They glorify those who "protect
and serve" to the point of annoyance,
and reinforce that "crime just
doesn't pay." Can you imagine a lo-
cal version of one of these shows?
"Next, on Top Cops in Ann Arbor,
our men and women in Blue subdue
a celebrating crowd of students with
tear gas and billy clubs!"
1. The Juice Man, Ronco Food
Dehydrator, Tommy "Why can't
you do this??" Wu, Kenny Rogers'
Golf tips (what???) and Lori Davis!
Cher Focus on Beauty half-hour
commercials:
I remember when, at about two
a.m., all the stations aired a stirring,
patriotic rendition of "The Star
Spangled Banner" and then called it
a night - nothing but static or test
patterns until sunrise. But now, late-
night insomniacs are bombarded by
half-hour commercials, for every-
thing from get-rich-quick schemes
and food mutilators to bargain-
basement beauty products. Who
would fall for schlock like that?
Anyway, I've gotta go now. The
turkeyjerky I just made in my new
food dehydrator is ready.
