U OF ALASKA WINS OVER COL. LUMBER
 BY SCORE OF 67-57

Playing a smoother and better organized game, the University of Alaska pulled ahead in the last quarter to defeat the Columbia Lumbermer last night by the score of 67 to 57.
 The first three quarters were Q ;ee-saw game with the first quarter ynding in 1l-all tie. Gray sparked the University during the first sec ton with three buckets while Scott led the Lumbermen with five points.
 The ball was in possession of the lumbermen during most of the first luarter but they were missing the rebounds while the University was picking the ball off the blackboard )n most of the shots. The Lumber nen closed the gap to within free .hrow at one time. The quarter ended with Hanson of the Lumber men hitting the basket from the back court with enchanted bas- ket as the horn sounded.
 With 60 seconds of play gone in the third frame, Hogins of the -umbermen evened the score at 32- Ill. The game started to pick up with De Priest of the University finding the basket for four baskets during the period. B. Graves, L. Bennett and Hogins of the Lum- oermen all found the net for two baskets each during the 10 minute period. De Priest and Graves both found the basket during the last 25 seconds for a basket apiece. The quarter ended with score at 49 for the University and 46 for the Lum- bermen.
 The University, never capped ifter the first quarter, slowly forged ahead during the last frame to win by a 10-point lead of 67 to 57. The Lumbermen started man to man defense in an unsuccessful effort to stem the University. During the first two minutes of this quarter, the University dropped in two baskets to take a five-point lead which was worked out at one time to II points.
 All 10 Lumbermen were used in the last quarter against the seven the University is carrying on the tour. In the last five minutes, the Lumbermen started finding the net but to no avail. Gray of the Uni versity pulled two fast jump shots that found the basket in the closing minutes that gave the team the 10- point margin.
 Score by quarters: first quarter, University II, Lumbermen II; sec- ond, University 32, Lumbermen 30; third, University 49, Lumbermen 46; fourth, University CT, Lumbermen ST.

A music program must meet

of music to which the child

vides so little time in which to
accomplish so much.
Last, but not least, there is the
group called the chorus. This
group should produce beautiful,
artistic singing as near perfection

a large deficit, unless income j:
Increased from a county source
Prices of the Individual lunch
can, of course, we increased but
it has been proven in the pas
that such an increase denies the
service to those most in need OF
it. Because of the increased fooC
costs many homes cannot supply
for their children an adequate
amount of meat and milk. Fol
this reason 1t is felt that now
il, is even more important that
Sthe school lunch provide as many
of the essentials to growth as is
possible.
: In Truman Elementary School
every effort is made to serve
nourishing, well balanced, and
attractive lunches. We feel that
the school lunch program should
serve many purposes.
GD To provide the child with
d hourishing lunch:
(2) To provide a means of de-
veloping good food habits;
49, To develop in the child a
liking for varied diet. Many
children refuse TO eat certain
vegetables because they have
never had them before. We hope
the lunch program viii help TO
increase the variety of foods
eaten;
az To help develop in the
child the social training which is
so necessary to his happiness.
Eating with other children and
observing accepted form of be
baylor will increase his ability
to adjust to adult behavior when
he is older
We, in Truman School, would
like to improve our lunchroom
service. The foo6 served is of the
best and is attractiyely served.
Our lunch, room Is much too
small. 1t is SO small it is neces-
sary ; to- divide the children into
two lunch groups. This is UNI
satisfactory because lit increases
the lunch hour of the second and
third grades to one and one-half
hours. A shorter lunch hour
would more adequately meet
their needs. We would like also
to have our lunch room more
attractive. Much has been done,
but it could still be greatly I'M
proved, We should like to re-
place the old benches with in
dividual chairs.
In epite of these inadequacies
anG desires we feel that the
lunch program in our school is
filling definite need. We feel
every child who eats in our
lunch room is greatly benefited.

for every child to take advantage

To show the growth and de-
*eloPment of the program IN Fla.
we can point to the l1oiloWing
figures In the school year 1886
AZ there Were, P5931 lunch pro

In l949'5 there were, 500 pro-
grams, in oneration feeding a to-
tai of l60,556 children. 1t is es=
timated that this year the pro-
gram will serve about III, Gee
children.
Rising food prices and the fact
that federal financial assistance
has not grown with the increased
number of children served has
meant that the children are pay
ing slightly more of the cost OF
their lunch now than they did in
1946-'47. At that time the child
paid SO percent, the federal gov
eminent SO per cent and com
munity sources contributed five
percent. Up TO the year 1949- 80
the child was paying, "a percent
