Other members of the cast are Terry Walker, John Howard and George Hnyee. the eating habits of the average city dweller have undergone a consider able change. Fruits, vegetables and cereal products that once did not figure In the family food budget are now staples. These changes are due chiefly to a better understanding of the elements of nutrition and dis covery of vitamins. While nutritional authorities place milk at the top of the list of foods In respect to balanced food values, milk consumption has not Increased as rapidly aa that of many foods for which concerted and aggressive pro motional programs were developed. Today, mlllf consumptlon -.verages about eight-tenths of a pint per day per person. If the milk Industry can raise the average to a pint a day, agricultural purchasing power would be materially Increased and public health improved, the atatement said.
