  • scattered, classroom buildines and dormitories, we should be classified in the moderate 1-"- active class, which "'s vet-- lenient to the deiteti.c department of estern Carolina. From this we find, that we should have an extra 125 calories per hour for the hours we are active. .re consider the averape student's day from 3:00 A. K. to 10:00 P. V., a total of lU hours and a needed 17.50 extra calories. This fives us a total of hl50 necessary calories per dav. This total minus the average received during the two day test shows a lackinp or 1673.6 calories. Tn other words it is our firm belief that we, the boarding students, are slowlv, but surelv starving to death. It tales three days of prazing to get two days hay, to use the slanp expression. This is not all, we would li! e to quote from the aforementioned book again. Fare 18, "... \n adult over 2] should get about ,Ltr-' pram of protein a day per pound of bodv weight. That is about 70 prams for a 15U pound man and about 60 prams for a 132 pound female...at the apes of 17 to 21 years it is half apain as much as that of the adult." "Je thin] it is safe to say that 50"' of the students on this campus are between the apes of 17 and 21. Calculating for the ren- ipnorinp our fairer sex- we find that a man between these apes needs 105 prams of proteins per 2k hour period. This firure minus our averape calculation shows the defeciencv of protein per 2!i hour period to be 23.09 prams. Proteins are those substances which are the essential constituents of all livinp cells and also the diet of the animal orpanism. Tdose men who eat in the collepe dining hall must insist upon extra food or lack their nrnimum requirements. Seconds are not always available. "rom our observation of the dietarv tables, we find that we receive the minimum required amount of Calcium, Phosphorous, and Iron. ^ood standards were taken from the Handbook of Chemistry and Phvsics, 30th Edition, II10, papes 1522 to 1536.
