“Colored” to taste
By Polly Fisher
DEAR POLLY What is blue corn meal? Can recipes
using blue cornmeal be made with regular cornmeal? -
GAIL
DEAR GAIL — Blue cornmeal is made from a particular
variety of corn. It’s primarily used in Indian and Hispanic
recipes in the Southwest If you can’t find blue cornmeal in
the gourmet foods or Mexican foods section of your super-
market or specialty food shop, simply substitute white or
yellow cornmeal. The results won’t be as authentic, but the
product will be perfectly palatable Similarly, recipes speci-
fying yellow or white cornmeal can be made with either
variety There are many who will argue that the final result
won’t be the same — and, indeed, you will have created a
slightly different product — but who cares? It will taste just
as good Better to substitute than not to try these recipes at
all! - POLLY

DEAR ABBY My problem is my husband. He has be
come obsessed with sex He’s started to bring home every
girlie magazine he can find. He also buys books that show
pictures of all the different positions to make love.
When we were married 10 years ago, he was a normal,
decent man. Then about a year ago he started to get sex
crazy. Thank God I can’t have any children.
Last Sunday he insisted on making love to me four
times. By nightfall I was physically and mentally abused.
The next morning he woke me up at 4 a.m. wanting sex
again. I told him I just couldn’t — I was still exhausted
from Sunday. He got rough and tried to force me against
my will. so I jumped out of bed and ran to the guest room
and locked the door. He screamed at me, pounded on the
door and called me a “frigid b "! I thought he was going
to break the door down. He finally gave up, and I stayed
in that room until after he left for work.
Abby, I want out of this marriage. I am afraid to stay
with this sex maniac. We just moved here and I don’t
know anybody. Please help me.
DESPERATE IN DENVER
DEAR DESPERATE: Call "Gateway" or "Safe-
house." Each provides temporary shelter for bat-
tered women. In the meantime you should absolutely
not live with him. His sudden preoccupation with
sex and his abusive behavior could be symptoms of
a mental disorder. Run for your life! But first leave
a note telling him that you refuse to live with him
unless he is examined by a psychiatrist and treated
for whatever caused the sudden change in his be-
havior.
Women in other areas with similar problems should
call their rape-crisis hotline for emergency help.

Almanac
By United Press International
Today is Wednesday, June 1.
the 152nd day of 1983 with 213
to follow.
The moon is moving toward
its last quarter.
The morning star is Mercury.
The evening stars are Venus,
Mars, Jupiter and Saturn.
Those born on this date are
under the sign of Gemini.
Celebrities and historical
figures born on this date
include English poet John
Masefield, in 1878, actress
Marilyn Monroe, in 1926, actor
Andy Griffith, also in 1926 and
actor-comedian Cleavon Little,
in 1939.
On this date in history.
In 1812, President James
Madison warned Congress war
with Great Britain was im-
minent. The War of 1812 started
17 days later.
In 1964, the U.S. Supreme
Court banned prayers and Bible
teaching in public schools on
the constitutional grounds of
separation of church and state.
In 1973, Greek Premier
George Papadopoulos abolished
the monarchy and proclaimed
the country a republic, with
himself as president.
In 1975, President Ford and
Egyptian President Sadat
opened talks in Salzburg,
Austria, and Ford praised
Sadat for creating opportunities
for peace in the Middle East.
A thought for the day: Poet
John Masefield said, "Bitter it
is, indeed, in human fate, when
life’s supreme temptation
comes too late."

DEAR ABBY This is probably the stupidest hang up
you’ve ever heard about. We have a son, 13 months old.
When he was born, we debated between two names, Daniel
and Patrick We decided on Daniel because my brother,
whom I love dearly, is named Patrick and I didn’t like
"Big Pat" and "Little Pat."
So the problem? As Daniel grew older, he became the
image of my brother Patrick, and now 1 regret not naming
him Patrick It is driving me crazy.
My husband says at this stage of the game we can’t
change the kid’s name Why can’t we?
KICKING MYSELF IN BOSTON
DEAR KICKING: You can if you want to. If you
want to change his name legally, you should consult
a lawyer. Otherwise, you can just start calling "the
kid" Patrick.
DEAR ABBY: I need a lawyer and 1 need one fast. How
do I find one who won’t charge me an arm and a leg?
TEMPUS FUGIT
DEAR TEMPUS: First ask your friends and asso-
ciates for their recommendations.
For helpful, detailed information about a lawyer’s
credentials, consult the Martindale-Hubbell Law
Directory. It’s the “Who’s Who" of lawyers and can
be found at your public library.
Don’t be shy about "shopping" for a lawyer. For
routine legal work such as drawing up a will, closing
a real estate deal or checking a lease or contract, a
low-cost legal clinic may suit your needs, but for
trusts, tax work, divorce or trial cases, consult a
lawyer who specializes in that field.
Find out in advance how much you will be charged.
Some lawyers expect a retainer fee paid in advance,
others charge by the hour, and in personal injury
suits, a lawyer may take the case for a percentage
of your recovery.
The local bar association referral service may be
able to help you, but it only lists lawyers - it doesn’t
evaluate them.
