News-Journal Bureau MARIANNA Two Jack-son County 4-H Club girls will compete this summer at the Florida 4-H Congress in Gainesville for state honors in food preparation. Their specialty will be peanut butter pie, selected for three basic reasons: superior taste, superior food value and because Jackson County is Florida's leading peanut producing country. The pie is similar in appearance to pecan pic, a Southern favorite. It compares with pecan pie in flavor, too.

Some samplers say it tastes better. Peanut butter pie won for Dcaretha Pittman, 15, and Glinda Britt, 16, District 11 honors at a 4-H events day Saturday in Bristol. They are members of the St. Mary's 4-H Club, where they were coached by Mrs. Jane Burgess, assistant home economics agent, and Mrs.

Classie Mae Henderson, 4-H senior leader. Here is the winning recipe for peanut butter pie: Two and one-half tablespoons cornstarch, one-half cup sugar, two cups milk, one-fourth cup peanut butter, two egg yolks (beaten), two egg whites, one-fourth teaspoon salt, one-half teaspoon vanilla. Mix cornstarch and one-fourth cup of the sugar and add milk. Cook over boiling water until thickened (10 or 15 minutes), stirring frequently. Blend in the peanut butter; stir a little of the hot mixture into the egg yolks, then add to the rest of the hot mixture and continue cooking a minute or two longer.

Cool slightly. Beat egg whites and salt until stiff but not dry. Add remaining sugar gradually, beating until the egg whites are thick and glossy. Add vanilla to cooked mixture and stir into egg whites. Chill before serving.

This amount should provide from four to six servings or filling for nine-inch pie. Mrs. Mary Bennett, home economics agent, commended the girls for their peanut cookery. She described peanuts as not nuts In the real sense, but members of the pea and bean family of legumes. Like peas and beans, peanuts are good in main dishes, in soups and in combination with other vegetables, she said.

"Peanuts and peanut butter are high in food value, and the idea of using them often in family meals is nutritionally sound," declared Mrs. Bennett, who is presently directing a pilot program for family nutrition education in the county. She added that peanuts are exceptionally high in niacin, as well as being important also for other vitamins. Mrs. Bennett said peanuts also rate high in quantity of protein.

"For most efficient use of peanut protein, some animal protein food such as meat, milk or eggs should be eaten at the same meal," she explained. "Peanuts are a good source of food energy."

Coast Guard Auxiliary, Flotilla 14 of Fort Walton Beach, are running about four times those given by the same time last year, Col. (USA Ret.) John H. Sharp, courtesy boat examiner, reports. The examinations are voluntary and to date 147 boats have been examined, of which 56 were awarded auxilliary decals. Many of those not passing are correcting faults found and will be reexamined, Sharp said.

He added a main cause for failure to pass was faulty ventilation. "A compartment or space in which an engine or fuel tank is located, particularly the lower part, must be provided with ventilation capable of preventing and removing accumulations of flammable or explosive va-por," he declared. Sharp suggested permanent open and unobstructed inlet and outlet ventilating ducts extending to bilges with two ducts serving as inlets and two other as outlets. "The fitting of outlet ventilating ducts with wind-actuated self-trimming or power-operated exhaust blowers is recommended," he added. Sharp said the flotilla has no police powers and reports are not sent to any governmental agency.

The inspections are merely a service to the boat owners designed to improve boat safety on the waters of the area. The chief examiner said he is on duty at the Shalimar Yacht Basin each Sunday and special inspections can be held at any time by calling him at his home at 313 sweeping "home rule" powers to cities, became law Thursday under the pen of Gov. Claude Kirk. The measure implementing the state's new constitution lets municipalities en-a ordinances to govern themselves on any subject not specifically prohibited by state law. It is effective immediately and should result in a rapid drop in the so-called "local bill evil" in which legislators spend half of their time or more on legislation effecting only one city.

"The legislative will no longer be burdened by a large number of local bills to consider," Kirk said in signing the bill. "It can now turn its attention to statewide affairs and leave the operation of local government to local officials who are closer to the people and community affairs." Similar powers for counties are included in a bill halfway through the legislature. The governor also signed a resolution ratifying the 19th amendment to the federal constitution which gave women the right to vote 50 years ago. Enough legislatures adopted the amendment to make it law without Florida. But the state legislature went through the motions of ratifying it anyway, in commem-moration of the golden anni-v a of the league of women voters.
