The ProQuest digitization of the Chicago Tribune is now at the end of
1953, and there's no "Sicilian pizza." However, there is "pizza
Siciliana" and "pizza Sicilian style."

A good many of my readers are going to want this new cook book: "The
Art of
Italian Cooking," by Maria Lo Pinto ($2.75, Doubleday and Co., New
York). (...)
Among the 200 recipes in this book are such dishes as rabit--hunter's
style,
brandied duck, Sicilian tomato pie (pizza Siciliana).

p. A3 (1 page) :
"I also use the creamed cottage cheese for pizza Sicilian style, when
I can't
get ricotta. I roll out the pizza dough, not too thin, spread with
sauteed
onions, a thin layer of the cheese, then seasoned crushed canned
tomatoes, a
thin sprinkling of grated Parmesan or Romano cheese, oregano, and a
few drops of
oil in which a small clove of farlic has been crushed, and bake it.
This is a
rich and filling pizza, and with a tossed vegetable salad, it's a
complete
meal."
