* (Granny Smith or Delicious)

Place finely cut fruits in a bowl & set aside.  Sift sugar, flour &
salt together. Finely sift this mixture into fruits, turning
frequently.  Beat egg yolks until lemon colored and stir into floured
mixture.  Beat egg whites until stiff and fold gently into fruit
mixture.  Transfer to buttered casserole (9 X 9 pan) and spread with
topping.

TOPPING: Sift flour, sugar and spices together, then crumble the
butter into the dry ingredients.  When well mixed, but still in the
'pebbley" state, add chopped nuts & mix lightly.  Sprinkle topping
over apple-rhubarb mixture, covering well.  Bake 375 oven 30-40 min.
until fruit is tender.
