Foods Building, the proposed din
ing hall for men, and the two
women’s dormitories now under
construction on easit campus, Miss
Baker will supervise the pur
chase, storage, and preparation of
all foods for the serving of more
than 15,000 meals daily.

checked and stored, either in dry
storage, or in the case of frozen or
perishable foods, in large freezers
and refrigerators. Meats will be

that fashion-wise coeds look for.
