5000 CHILDREN
GET SCHOOL
LUNCHES
1,259,554 Meals Are Served
To Needy D. G. Pupils
During 1934-35 Session

Approximately 5000 hungry
children whose families are on re-
lief were fed free hot lunches in
schools of the Capital during the
school year just ended, according
to a report submitted to the
Board of Education at it's final
session of the year.
These pupils were served a total
of 1,259,554 lunches during the

meals served in elementary, senior
high, junior high and vocational
schools.
Although the average number
of pupils served during the school
year 1934-35 was about the same
as in the year before, the number
served on one day in May set a
record for the period in which the
free lunches have been provided.
On May "a, total of 1921 hun.
cry school children were fed in
the elementary schools.
In the senior high, Junior high
and vocational schools, where
the number of needy pupils is rel
atively smaller than in the ele-
mentary grades, approximately
600 children were served total
of some 1900 lunches through
out the year.
In a report by R. L. Haycock
and A. K. Savoy, assistant super
intendents of the white and col
ored schools, respectively, the hot
lunch program was explained as
follows:
"The serving of hot lunches
to school children under the
relief program in the District
of Columbia has become one
of the most important Of the
emergency activities. This
program has as its purpose. not.
only the feeding Of hungry chill
dren in needy families, but the
rehabilitation of homes in dis
treSS."
At an average cost of 10 cents
a meal, the lunches served to the
children included substantial
hot dish, made up of as many
vegetables as possible, besides
sandwiches, milk and fruit.
