Central Across from Craterian Supermarket S tudy Used To Combat Malnutrition Br JEANNE LESEM United Press International New York (TPD Super markets are becoming school rooms in a program designed to combat malnutrition among America's teen-aged girls. The food shopping knowl edge which a student acquires in Seventeen Magazine's young consumer education program also prepares her for the day when she'll be a homemaker shopping for her own family. So says Mrs. Sigana Earle, the magazine's .-director of food and homemaking educa tion. The program, now in its fifth year, is directed toward our eight and a half million teen-aged girls, in cooperation with food stores and school systems throughout the coun try. It helps both students and teachers to make more "dol lars and sense" out of the va riety of foods in today's super markets, Mrs. Earle said. "Girls must become as in formed about food as they are about fashions, if they are going to be up-to-date host esses and homemakers. As the teen-ager increases her knowl edge of buying, she also learns how to eat better, look better and feel better," she added. Who is better qualified to give shopping hints than su permarket managers' who are bargain hunters on a whole sale scale? Beginning next month (October), thousands of grocers will guide school-girls through the aisles of their stores and behind the scenes where meats, fresh fruits, and vegetables are readied for consumers. The students, accompanied by teachers, will make their initial visit in groups of 25 to 30, usually on a Monday or Tuesday, when the stores gen erally are not crowded. Later, many students will make re turn visits in smaller "com mittee groups," to research special projects and report to their classes. What will they learn? That a 1958 supermarket may carry more than 6,000 items on its shelves, compared to 850 items 30 years ago. They'll discover that an ordinary baking potato if available in up to 17 varieties, costing from a penny to 29 cents a serving. They'll be given tips by the grocer on ways to recognize freshness in produce; how to decipher meat grading; how egg quality is maintained; and how a food's package becomes a teacher. To date, more than two mil lion home economics students have participated in the pro gram. This represents one quarter of the nation's female teen population. This year, its sponsors expect to reach an additional 4,000 classes. GUESTS REAIM ClaMle lines of the Empire period served a. inspiration for this guest room by Celis Endore and Philip Spencer, NSID.
