H.S. boys learn cooking skills Something new has been cooking this year at the Payson High School. It has been a semester course in Boys Foods, and has been taught by Mr. Lucille Liddle who feels that boys can benefit by learning principles of food preparation. Boys who will go on L.D.S. missions or who will batch while attending universities can be better prepared to fix their own meals if they have some background in preparing A Boy's Food Cooking Class is a new inovation at the Payson High School.

This is the age of the Book was the theme chosen this year, but with so many other instructional materials available in this age, many may wonder why this theme would be appropriate. Just how does the book compare with radio, television, tape recordings, motion pictures, filmstrips, transparencies and other media? Books are still handy and ready for instant use. Nothing has to be connected or switched on when using a book. Information is always available in books and any portion can be used without bothering about what went on before or after. Books may be housed on shelves for a short or a long period of time, but are available whenever needed.

The area of food service offers many opportunities for gainful employment to those fellows who are interested. The boys have enjoyed cooking and have prepared some very good dishes this year. Some of the interesting things they have done are: They started out in the fall with a unit on outdoor cookery. They barbecued a variety of foods on the grill on the outdoor patio just off the kitchen. Several different kinds of salads and vegetables were prepared. Since meat is the most costly part of the meal, it recieved priority on the list of foods studied. The students learned about meat cutting by watcning Glen Thatcher cut up a side of beef at Roys Food Mart. Then they learned how to cook properly the different cuts of beef. After touring the Brigham Young University Food Service department where 25,000 meals are prepared each day and visiting the bakery there, the boy practiced baking. They made quick breads, cookies, pies, cakes, and sweet rolls. Everything turned out very good-n- o burned products and no failures. Before the semester ends they want to prepare a variety of foods that can be served for breakfast and have some experiences in deepfat frying. The final test will be the planning, preparing and serving of a full course dinner. Good luck fellows. One of the elective classes taught each day at the Payson Middle School is Merit Badge. This is a course offered by Mr. Stewart. It provides an opportunity for boys who are interested in scouting: to work on advancement toward an Eagle Scout. The boys may work on merit badges of their choice and pursue any field of interest. The boys are given an opportunity to work together in groups and use all the materials in the school for their advancement. The school library lias a good selection of merit badge books that may be checked out and used by the boys. There is also an opportunity for lab work such as observation of traffic intersections, and service to the community Book Week was an exciting experience at the Middle School this past week.
