Look For Safeway’s
1991 Expanded “ Know
Your Foods” Booklet
With over 15,000 food choices in
the supermarket, it can be confusing
and time-consuming to figure out what’s
low in calories, fat, cholesterol or so­
dium; or what foods are a good source
of fiber.
Yet, surveys suggest that almost
everyone considers nutrition an impor­
tant factor when making food buying
decisions.
Safeway stores in Oregon and
Southwest Washington recently intro­
duced a booklet, entitle “ Know Your
Foods,” designed to assist consumers
seeking this information.
Safeway’s 2nd edition “ Know Your
Foods” booklet lists nutrient values for
over 3,500 brand-specific foods low in
fat, cholesterol, sodium and/or calo­
ries; plus, foods with fiber.
New in this edition of Safeway’s
Know Your Foods program is informa­
tion on the nutrition content of Fresh
products, including;
Fresh Fruits, Meats, Seafood, Fresh
Vegetables, and Poultry
In addition to many canned, bottled
and frozen foods. Foods that fit one or
more of the categories will have corre­
sponding shelf tags to easily identify
these products. For example, a food
that is low in sodium and fat will have
a shelf tag that shows * V LOW SO­
DIUM, ✓ LOW FAT.”
The Know Your Foods program
uses nutrition information voluntarily
provided to Safeway by manufacturers
and follows the Food and Drug Ad­
ministration (FDA) guidelines & has
FDA approval. “ The Know Your
Foods” listings arc not endorsements
for specific foods, but are offered to
help make shopping easier.
John Frohnmayer To Speak At Law
School Graduation May 19
Harris, who has taught at the university
for 11 years, was selected by a com­
mittee of the law faculty.
Appointed by president Bush in
1989, Frohnmayer is the fifth chair­
man of the National Endowment for
the Arts. During Frohnmayer’s U.S.
Senate confirmation hearings, Sen. Bob
Packwood praised Frohnmayer for
having “ the uncanny ability that I wish
most of us had from time to time to
diffuse rather than fan controversy.”
As NEA chairman, Frohnmayer
was at the center of controversial hear­
ings in the U.S. Congress about NEA
arts funding for works considered to be
obscene by certain groups.
A former chairman of the Oregon
Arts Commission, Frohnmayer was most
recently a lawyer in Portland, special­
izing in civil litigation. A native of
Medford, he graduated from the UO
School of Law in 1972.
Frohnmayer is an accomplished
singer and has appeared in recital,
musical comedy and other musical
productions in New York City, Chi­
cago, Palo Alto, Calif., and Oregon.
John Frohnmayer, chairman of the
National endowment for the Arts,
(NEA), will deliver the commence­
ment address at the 105th annual Uni­
versity of Oregon School of Law Com­
mencement on Sunday, May 19.
The commencement ceremony,
honoring 164 graduates, will begin at 1
p.m. in the Silva Concert Hall at the
Huit Center for the performing Arts,
One Eugene Centre. The commence­
ment will be open to the public.
UO Provost Norman Wessells will
confer the degrees in President Myles
Brand’s absence. Chaplin D. Clark,
associate dean and professor at the UO
law school, will serve as the com­
mencement marshal.
During the ceremony, Clark will
receive the Meritorious Service Award.
Clark, who is retiring this year, has
taught at the School of Law for 30
years. The award is given in recogni­
tion of outstanding service to the ad­
ministration of justice and legal educa­
tion in Oregon.
Leslie J. Harris, UO associate pro­
fessor of law, will be presented with
the Orland J. Hollis Teaching Award.
