The school lunch program has expanded faster in the older schools than might have been originally expected The school board and the 'superintendent nd his staff have taken every opportunity to place lunih rooms in these schools These have opportunities shown up mainly during remodeling of the school buildings At Central for example a lunch room was included in plans for remodeling the gymnasium Another several hundred youngsters were provided hot noon meals when an experiment proved it was feasible to feed Dee Grant and Lincoln students from the Mound Fort lunch room Food is prepared each day in the Mound Fort kitchen and transported to these three schools just before lunch IMPORTANT PHASE One of the most important phases of the program is the preparation of the menus second probably only to the actual preparation of the food All of the lunch managers are given a lot of leeway with their menus as long as they stay within the nutritional standards set by state and federal agreement and a budget governed by the program's financial resources Once each month the managers meet Here they take a sample self-impos- i k — - i A jp ' j BEHIND THE SCENES —City school students w 4 ti q know how their lunch looks and tastes when served at noon each school day but above a group goes behind : the scenes to where it is prepared ng the-wa- ever-burdene- d yhH trip The vessel draws about three on the half-milfeet of water ADVENTUROUS CRUISE— Disneyland visitors see the built-to-scal- — ed Sometimes it is difficult to determine who is more tickled the students or at these treats the managers One of the oddities of the program is that the average cost of preparing and serving a meal today is lower than it was in 1949 Officials do not claim this as a reversal of the nationwide trend for things to cost more because since the low experischool year enced in the 1950-5there has been a gradual but costs steady increase in One of the major factors in reducing the cost during the second and' third year: of operations was an increase in the amount of surplus commodities received from the tJ S Department of 1 per-me- al Agriculture Another factor was the expe- rience gained by the lunch room managers The first year was the highest at 3792 cents per meal Last year the average cost for a meal was 3302 cents Schbols with lunchrooms are Ben Lomond Bonneville Central Gramercy Hopkins Horace Mann Lynn Mound Fort Ogden High Taylor and Wasatch THE MOST MEALS Last year Mound Fort served the most meals 184333 because of its connection with Dee Grant Ogden High was1 second with 92333 Most of the food for the lunchrooms is bought locally through a central purchasing officer in the superintendent's office Perishable items like milk meat and bread are bought daily and delivered direct to the kitchens Staples are bought in bulk and delivered to a main storehouse in the school offices Each lunch room manager can order the type and quantity of foodstuffs he desires as long as they stay within the budget One of the most important — — people in and the lunch program is the school principal He is responsible for the lunch program in his school as he is responsible for everything else that happens there he can suggest Although cbtnge or otherwise affect the menu's the average principal usually leaves that in the capable hands of the manager Most of his time (on the lunch program is spent in a financial capacity The principal sells and collects for the lunch tickets NAMES OF MANAGERS The managers are: Ben Lomond Mabel Checketts Bonneville Eleanor Nielsen Central Afton Mortensen Gramercy Lenora Poorte Hopkins Maxine Marshall Horace Mann Margaret Read Lynn Ida Hin-to-n Mound Fort Ruby Putnam Dee Virginia Charlton Grant Lucy Wiggins Lincoln Phyllis Hufstetler Ogden High Florence Visser Taylor Alta Hess and Wasatch LaVerne Stock Although there are hundreds of different appetites with their own individual tastes to be fed the school lunch program has enjoyed a fairly smooth journey during its first seven years The reactions of many parents and PTA groups observed- - by School Supt T O Smith Indi-cat- e the lunch room customers of the city schools are' satisfied and-Xinc- c Ha 1 earth vT j Disneyland Is divided up into four "pands" — Adventureland Frontierland Tomorrowland and Fantasyland At its hub is the Plaza from which any of the lands may be reached and where parents can snatch a few minutes of welcome rest It is in Fantasyland reached over the drawbridge and through (animals reptiles birds and monkeys seen during a boat trip through a river in Disney land Real atmosphereY is created by trees: and other growths from Africa 'India READY TO SNAP — A plastic hippo that surfaces is one of the life-lik- e and other tropical realms oln " "v 4 j i K oft-forgott- both in quality and quantity A din i ii to -- ""j ' - 7 I y ' I - - ' litis -- " r h I :'- - m ' '" I I !
