Maple Room Offers
Lunchtime Specials
Pork chops, green peas, parsley potatoes; Waldorf salad, poppy-
seed rolls, butter, strawberry parfait, and coffee. Sound gbod r to 'you?
It's, just a sample of the meal you might •be served in the Maple
Room, the Home Economics school's cafeteria and tea room.
this student-operated eating place
conomics building. But it's been
there for a long time—so long
that Miss Alma McDougall, assis
tant professor of hotel and insti
tution administralion, can't re
member when it started.
It's called the Maple Room
beciuse of its furniture, al
though students have suggested
it be renamed "Club 410" to give
it a jazzier tone, according to
Miss McDougall.
410 is the number of the tea
room management' course in
which students operate the Maple
Room Tuesday through Thurs
day nights,
Another institutional adminis
tration course, 330 (quantity cook
ing), sends its students to operate
the Maple Room as a cafeteria
at noon, Monday through Friday,
and Monday night.
"We have about 90 to 100 . cus
tomers for cafeteria lunch, and
40 to 60 for dinner." Miss Mc-
Dougall reported. "Most of the
customers are secretaries, faculty,
and graduate students."
Students, many of whom are
men in hotel administration,
pla,p, menus and food lists, pre
pare food, and wash those dishes
they use in the preparation.
Each noon a customer has a
choice of two main dishes (meat
or a meat substitute); two or three
vegetables, three salad s, rolls,
four desserts, and five beverages.
For dinner the Maple Room plans
three menus, and with these go a
choice of two or three vegetables,
two salads, rolls, thre desserts,
and three beverages.
One student is manager each
day. He plans a work schedule
for the other students in: his class.
He keeps account of all the ex
penses for food and figures this
percentage-wise, with the money
the tea room takes in. The object,
- as in any such business, is to, take
in more .money than you spend.
Miss McDougall reports much
competition on this score.
Not everybody knows about
in the baement of the Home E
Panhel to Meet
Panhellenic Council will
meet at 6:30 tonight in the
Kappa Alpha Theta suite.
