THE DAILY COLLEGIAN 'Blueprint Babies' `Diets,' Says Shaw If you want your child to be healthy, physically and mentally, check the contents of his lunch box or the .food which he eats at school to make sure that it con tains sufficient proteins, minerals, and vitamins. • This is the advice that comes as the result of a four-year study that has been conducted by home economics research specialists un der the sponsorship of the State Department' of Health. "Children's diets may now be planned on a scientific basis, just as one draws blueprints for the building of a house," said Dr. John J. Shaw, State Secretary of Health, in discussing the advances which have been made in ascer taining proper nutrition for school children. "Children need no longer be fed by ear," said Dr. Pauline Beery Mack, director of home econom ics research, as she told of the conclusions which have resulted from an examination of 2000 chil dren since 1936. For the last four years, workers under her supervi sion haVe been relating types of nutrition to such physical indices as body tuild, skeletal status, vit amin status, red. coloring matter in the blood, and other significant measurements. Out of their studies correlating the average intake of energy, pro tein, and the various minerals and vitamins for children of families of different incomes has come a new emphasis •on the proper con tent of school lunches' for children of families of different income levels. • • "A school lunch should proper ly contain the needed nutrients least likely to be received at home," Dr. Mack explained. "The• studies have shown that the types of food least likely to be deficient in the school child's diet are the starches and sugars. "On the other hand, proteins, which are found chiefly in milk, meat, and eggs, as well as various minerals and vitamins are most likely to be lacking in the child's diet, and this deficiency becomes greater the lower the family- in come. "Sandwiches and starchy foods, often constituting the chief com ponents of a school lunch, there fore make the poorest contribution to the morning and evening meal. "The best supplement consists of milk, together with some meat or eggs and a considerable quantity of fruits and vegetables in the ma jority of cases."

ALLEN GUTMAN Representative of EDWARD'S CUSTOM-MADE CLOTHING lateritu "OUTFITTERS FOR SMART MEN" 127 SOUTH ALLEN ST. M. B. Zeper—Mgr. 6-95-E We, The Women— Coeds Can Revive Penn Slate Spirit Af Games That coeds who sit at football games and gab during cheers, gos sip when the band is playing "Vic tory," and hastily muffle the fer vent frosh outburst of "44, 44" should be condemned, we admit, but we sincerely feel that the women on this campus have a real school spirit—now dormant. There was only a lethargic showing of spirit at the Bucknell game—cheerleaders, parents, and visitors attest to that. And wom en were as apathetic in their sup port of the team as were the men. Even freshmen, the usual pride of the yell-leaders, were disappoint ing. Perhaps the fault lies with the entire College; we cannot ascer tain that. But we can make sug gestions that may help in the re appearance of the enthusiasm typical of Penn State women. We'd like to see mass meetings so that transfer women may learn Penn State songs and cheers. Women's opportunities to cheer in a body, except for intercollegiate Whaffa Yuh Say Gang!!
