Televised Education Feature
Of New Open Learning Program

Continuing education cen-

on grade school and high school

on regular ision pro-
gramming is included in plan-
ned activities of the provincial
education ministry's Open
Learning Institute, according
to details released here early
this month by two visiting
ministry officials.
+: A news release issued by
ingtitute principal ‘John Ellis
and information services direc-
tor Jack Paterson in their Oct.
2 visit to Selkirk College says
the television programming—
using resources available from
he British Open University,
he Provincial Educational Me-
ia Centre, the Ontario Edu-
itional Communications Au-
thority and other sources—can

for adults,
according to the ministry re-
lease, and plans to work closely
with the ministry's correspon-
dence branch.

Also approved by the
board is a new university
degree structure which will be
compatible . with those now
offered by the three provincial

pilot programming in Septem-
ber 1979, with a view to
delivering the first two formal
offerings on Jan. 1, 1980. The
institute hopes to increase this
number to 10 courses within a
year following this date.”

The board has also ap-
proved plans to begin discus-
sions “regarding areas of profit-

able collaboration” with voca-°

and the
transfer programs offered by
Selkirk and the 13 other com-
munity colleges in B.C. it
continues.

“University course mate-
rials will be acquired from all
appropriate sources including
the open university materials
now on hand,” the release says.
“Course and modi-

979 increasing to 10 hours per
~tweek by Sept. 1, 1979."

The release said the plan,
“developed by institute staff
members as an interpretation
of the statement of the mission
given to the institute when it
was established in June,” will
feature public broadcasts of
high-quality materials with sig-
nificant cultural and intellectual
content although it will not
form a regular program of
instruction.

The institute board has
approved an early beginning to
a program in adult basic edu-
cation which will concentrate

Home on the

Halloween brings two
things to mind—pumpkins and
candy.

Carving a jack o'lantern is
not the only thing to do with

ge Mackintosh

“1/2 tsp. nutmeg

2 cups chopped walnuts

Mix together first four
ingredients, In a separate bow!
mix the remaining ingredients

Take ge of
their appearance in the stores
in the next few days and can or
freeze’ some pumpkin,

Cook the cut-up pumpkin
in a large kettle with just
enough water to prevent
scorching. Then put the pump-
kin through a food mill to puree
it. If you do not have a food mill,
you will have to slice the flesh
from the skin and then mash or
blend it. You can then either
freeze the pumpkin or can it.

Remember! Pumpkin must
be pressure canned in a propoer
pressure canner—a boiling wa-
ter bath will not destroy the
botulism!

Save the seeds when you
carve your pumpkin, Separate
them from the bits of clinging
flesh and toss with a little oil
and salt. Spread on a cookie
sheet and-roast in a 400° oven
for 15-20 min. Be caretut “they
burn easily,

Here are two recipes for

that pumpkin,
Pumpkin Soup
2 tbsp. margarine or butter
1 small green pepper, diced
2 chopped tomatoes
1 email onion
1/4 tsp. thyme
1 bay leaf
2 cups cooked pumpkin
2 cups chicken or vegetable
stock
1 thsp. flour
1/2 cup milk
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. sugar
Cook first six ingredients
for five minutes, Add pumpkin
and stock and simmer for 20
minutes. Puree this mixture.
Blend the flour with the milk
and mix into soup. Add nutmeg,
sugar, and salt to taste. Heat
slowly to boiling and simmer
three minutes. Garnish with
fresh parsley.
* + *
Pumpkin Walnut Bread
1-3/4 cups cooked pumpkin
1-1/2 cups dark brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
3 eggs, lightly beaten
5 cups flour (whole wheat or
white)
2 thsp. baking powder
1 tsp. cinnamon &
1/2 tsp. salt.

ding the walnuts, Add dry
to wet, mix thoroughly and
then mix in walnuts, Pour into
two medium loaf pans,

Form the batter slightly
higher along the sides than the
middle—to compensate for the
rising crown during the baking,
Bake at 350° for one hour. Let
cool in pans 10 minutes before
turning out.

This bread. develops its
best flavor if allowed to age one
or two days after baking.

The Inst recipe is sheer
indulgence. It is fattening and
incredibly bad for your teeth,
but I treat myself once a year
on Halloween. The way I see it,
if the children can collect a
pillowcase of candy—I am en-
titled to a pan of:

Russian Toffee
1/2 tb. butter
2 cups brown sugar
1 tin sweetened condensed
milk
1 cup corn syrup

Place all ingredients in a
deep heavy pot. Cook, stirring
constantly for 25 minutes or to
soft crack stage on a candy
thermometer.
