self-imposed low calorie diets by
teen-agers often lead to malnutri-

Miss Zickefoose said the teen-
ager normally has the biggest ap-
petite in the family; his nutrition
al needs are the greatest. These
requirements are increased by
rapid growth, greater activity and
imbalance in physical development
of various parts of the body.

that there is room on the Delmarva
Peninsula for three times as many
hogs, cattle and lambs as are now

because of our growing popula-

percent over the next decade. In
