--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2      Cups          Flour
   1 1/2  Cups          Sugar
   3      Teaspoons     Baking powder
     1/2  Teaspoon      Salt
     1/2  Cup           Oil
   6                    Eggs: separated
   3      Teaspoons     Grated grapefruit peel
     2/3  Cup           Grapefruit juice
     1/4  Teaspoon      Cream of tartar
                        -GLAZE-
   2      Cups          Powdered Sugar -- sifted
   3      Teaspoons     Grapefruit peel -- grated
   1      Teaspoon      Vanilla
   3      Tablespoons   Grapefruit juice

    In a small mixer bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
 Make a well in the center; in order, add oil, egg yolks, peel and juice.
 Beat smooth with an electric
mixer. Wash beaters, and in a large bowl, beat egg whites with cream of tartar until stiff. 
Gradually pour flour mixture (it will be stiff) in a thin stream over surface, and fold in gently.  
 Bake in a 10" ungreased tube pan for 55 minutes at 350~,
 or until when lightly touched with the finger, the cake springs back. Invert.
 Cool completely. Loosen edges, and remove to a cake plate.

 GLAZE: Mix all ingredients together, using enough grapefruit
juice to make it spread easily, and drizzle down the sides when spread on top of the cake.
