However, the folks who have the daily task of serving lunch to more than 16 million children under the U.S. National School Lunch Program have these tips on how to get children to clean their plates. In a survey of representative school lunch programs al] over the U.S., lunch _ supervisors ~ found that: Youngsters generally go for hamburgers, fried chicken, tur- key, spaghetti, hot dogs. and all soups except cream soups. And junior will eat certain vegetables and fruits, too, be- fieve it or not. The children will gobble up corn, green beans, potatoes, peas, and peaches. Oher favourite items probably won't surprise parents, Peanut butter, oatmeal cookies, over- sized sandwiches and "anything in a roll" rate high-on the school lunch list: sail ie The results of the survey can be viewed as a vote of confi- dence for the local, 'state and federal people who run _ the National Schoo] Lunch Program, for their aim is to serve school children the most nutritious, satisfying and economica] lunch- es they possibly can. 68,000 SCHOOLS Now in its 18th year, the National Schoo] Lunch Program is operating in 68,000 public and private schools, It is administer- ed nationally by the U.S. Depart ment of Agriculture and on a state level by the state educa- tional agencies. Any school that meets the qualifications can apply for the program. The basic require- ments are operating a non- -profit program, serving lunches free or at reduced cost to those pupils the schools deem are un- able to pay full price and serv- ing nutritious, well - balanced lunches. The lunch served under the program contains at least 2 ounces of meat, fish, poultry, . Cheese, or one egg, or 4 table- spoons peanut butter, or 4% cup cooked dry beans, %4 cup of two vegetables and-or fruit; 2 tea- spoons butter or fortified mar- PADDED 'CELL' FOR TEENAGERS For busy teen-age stu- dents: who : sometimes feel they'd like to get away from it all, even in a padded cell, a Dallas, Tex., builder is providing just that.

The cost of this lunch to the children averages about 27 cents The lunch programs receive about 20 per cent of their, oper- ational costs in food and as- sistance from the Department. The remainder comes from state and local monies and from payments by the children for the lunches. Almost 80 per cent of the food purchased is bought by the local manager from local suppliers. This. amounts to more than 600 million dollars worth of fosd annually. It also creates a mar- ket for the abundances of food produced by America's farmers. Almost 10 per cent of the more than 16 million children eating lunches under the pro- gram are served these lunches free or at a reduced price. For some of these children, who live in economically depressed areas, the lunch may be the best or only meal of the day.

Have the sales- man measure each foot while it is bearing the youngster's full weight--then fit the larger foot. You can check by pressing the toe of the shoe until you feel the tip of the big toe and the second toe. There should be three-quarters of an inch be-| tween the toe and the shoe. The widest part of the foot should be at fhe widest part of the shoe. As the child walks about the store, check to see that the shoes do not gap at the sides nor ride up and down at the heel.

Language laboratories operat- ed by the schools are but one example. Usefulness of magnetic tape in teaching foreign tongues by giving students a chance to check their own pronunciations has been declared by Professor Elton Hocking, head of the de- partment of Modern Languages at Purdue University, "a Coper- nican step forward." It is also especially helpful in speech therapy. Magnetic tape makes it pos- sible for schools te maintain an audible library of learning available for use over and over again in classroom work. Yet other highly individual uses are cropping up, according to 3M, producers of magnetic tape, and Revere-Wollensak, de- velopers of relatively inexpen- sive tape rcorders for school us.
