Arlington School was the most recent school lunchroom to be opened by Mrs. Erminie V. Lamb, lunchroom coordinator. The program was intended to help children learn to eat properly with well-balanced, nutritious food being presented for lunch. In 1948, lunches were then being served in 22 elementary schools with 3,500 students purchasing lunch each day. Arlington's lunch program started January 26, 1948, with spaghetti with meat and tomato sauce, celery sticks, a sandwich, one-half pint of whole mile and butterscotch pudding for 15 cents. (T.Times, 1/12/1948, p.11) TPL-8330
