Council Commits Four Food Plans To Study Group

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

A set of four recommendations from the Student Council's long-standing Food Committee have been sent back to committee because of insufficient evidence, after two of the four had won approval at the last Council meeting.

Originally approved was a recommendation to the University Dining Halls that "professional criteria be established for all food preparers." Food Committee Chairman Theodore D. Moskowitz quoted William A. Heaman as saying the Dining Halls hire on "no criteria except moral integrity."

The other recommendation winning Council support called on the Dining Halls to act on what Moskowitz termed "the great possibility of deadwood on the kitchen staff."

A plan to return to the 14 meals per week system, with breakfast the optional meal, was narrowly defeated. Opposition grew out of lack of evidence that the loss in revenue from breakfast would not raise the price of other meals.

More substantially defeated was a recommendation to eliminate "substitues."
