>> here are the children. tomorrow's adults on their way to school. tomorrow's doctors and nurses, writers and lawyers, tomorrow's spaceman. this school could be in your community. maybe you passed it on your way to work. your neighbor's child may be here, maybe your own. attendance at this school is high and so are the grades. and one reason could very well be a noon-day lunch in the national school lunch program.

[bell rings] >> it happens every noon monday through friday in this school and all schools that take part in the national school lunch program. it happens every noon for the pupil who takes advantage of the lunch program. lunches are planned by a local school manager whose menus have taste appeal and day-to-day variety. a good lunch provides to a third to one half of the students'

daily needs. in thousands of schools, millions of school children parpt in the national school lunch program. impressive? actually not, only a little over one-third of our school enrollment participates. the price of a lunch is low. an average of less than 30 cents for those who can afford, even lower for those who can't. free of charge for those of a needy family. lunches are to be nutritious and well-balanced. type a. meats and other foods rich in protein, a combination of fruits and vegetables, bread, butter, milk, type a. a nutritious lunch helps a child stay alert and helps teenagers make that final spurt of growth that develops them into healthy

grownups and gives energy the opportunity to keep up and grow up. and what better youth for our cultural riches than the school lunch. the total food consumed in the school lunch program represents an ever growing market for our farms and our food industry. of course there are schools that just don't have handsome cafeterias like this or handsome kitchen facilities, but this hasn't stopped some cools that lack such facilities. they still have a lunch program, a different kind. i asked one to tell us about it in her own words. >> school lunches are prepared every day in one big central kitchen and serves with many neighboring schools that have no kitchen facilities. the lunches we put together are type a and plenty of protein.

salads and minerals. dressing adds flavor. nd carbohydrates like oven resh cake. every lunch is separately and ttractively wrapped. and it is placed in its own paper bag to become a personal lunch. well in advance of the noon hour e pack the bagged lunches.

at lunch time becomes a cafeteria. the place is more than adequate. another school, the setting isn't always the best because there just isn't enough room.

children have to eat right at their desks. but they are being fed and fed well, and that's what counts. more schools should do it. every school should do it. this noontime lunch may be the only food that these children see all day long. miss school, miss lunch. so it's important they eat where someone can care for them. >> that's the picture in the city schools. but the picture changes when it comes to the rural schools. some of them are miles away from modern highways, hidden far out of sight. nevertheless, with enough determination and courage, a school lunch program can happen. let's hear about it from one such teacher in charge. >> before the school day

actually starts, my husband and i pay a visit to the general store to buy the day's menu. it's a good store. and it's right off the main highway, so we can count on deliveries of fresh milk every day. hey stack a large variety of canned and meats, fruits and vegetables, a lot of the good things children like to eat. it's a long drive to the school, that's for sure. a drive nobody was prepared to underdeveloped. but we do it every school day and has become part of the daily routine.

the children, bless their hearts, get to school ahead of time these days, just waiting to see us drive up. hey can't do enough to help. of course, -- it's not what you call a hardship. they are mighty grateful for receive engineeration and keeps the milk cool in hot weather and fresh all morning long. good for leftovers, too. but we never really count on leftovers.

noontime and everything is ready, ready for hungry and rateful little mouths. >> yes, it happens every noon for the lucky school children in this county. another county, another schoolhouse, one that is closer to the main highway. here food deliveries can be made. the older girls get things ready for lunch, giving the teacher a chance to remain with the younger children. the back of the schoolroom becomes a kitchen. the hot lunch is prepared. the only hot foods that some children can look forward to all day. and the kids are so willing that even the boys are willing to wash up for the noon day meal.

the energy that the well-balanced gives them will extend into the late hours of the afternoon and keep the children alert, even enthusiastic about school. yes, here again, it happens every noon. the way it has for many rural classrooms all over america. through the ingenuity of local communities, lunch programs have begun in isolated in one and two room schools. the united states department of agriculture tur donates some food along with cash to help schools buy food locally, thus

contributing about one-fifth of the school lunches. making lunches available doesn't mean that all children get good nutrition. some kids just don't buy the school lunch. they think it's perfectly all right, pretty cool, in fact, to live on snacks. teenaged girls are the most poorly fed than any others in they aren, considering our future wives and mothers. and take this youngster, looks like he could skip a meal or three. what he really needs is a meal. a meal with food that counts. is this happening in your community? find out, because many kids aren't getting good lunches at school. perhaps your school is already

taking part. very well and good. but ask your school lunch manager if every child is getting a good lunch. if not, it's time to enlist the support of your local people. the federal government is putting up its share. you, the community, must take on yours. work with your school officials and the state school lunch director and your state's department of education. they'll tell you how to get one going and going soon. once you do, see to it that all children have their lunch. they approved type a lunch. let it happen every noon in every school, in every state. ter all, you can't teach a ungry child.
