Lester B. Granger, Executive
Secretary of the National Urban
League, described the meeting as
"the most important national con-
ference on job training of youth in
recent years" He pointed out
that the rate at which new job OPP
portunities have developed for Ne
gro youth has been more rapid
than: the rate. of preparation for
them. eve are now frequently
in the paradoxical position of hav-
ing effected break-through on
certain job fronts, without having
enough troops to hold and expand
the field won," he said. Gains in
new job fields will be made only
when there are qualified Negroes
available, he added.
The work experience of most
Negro parents "has been unreward-
ing" and consequently few of the
Negro youth receive "any real in
spiration or stimulation" from the
adults in their own families, he
said.
Leadership groups within the
Negro community are frequently
$50 isolated from the main stream
of community contacts" that they
are unable to give the youth and
their parents effective help in
learning about new opportunities
that are developing, he said. "Here,

To get around the problem of
finicky eaters, scientists have
come up with q helpful ruse "A
favored appetite stimulant that
tastes enough like candy to pass
for the real thing. Called Stima-
vite, it whets tagging appetites
and provides vitamins and other
nutrients needed to keep a young
ster growing.
Why do children fuss so at
mealtime? Some child psycholo-
gists say it all goes back to poor
eating habits picked up from
parents. Nutritionists point out
that certain B vitamins not only
stimulate growth, but appetite as
well. They can even help improve
. child's school work and behav-
Tor. But once short-changed of
these nutrients, . child is apt to
lose his gusto for food.
