Miss Hogan's talk will expand beyond the usual comments on the virtues of dairy products to outline how homemakers can build day-to-day meals around dairy products. The No. 1 health problem -- overweight and an inadequate diet -- can be met head-on by women planning and serving meals after skillful selection of foods from the four basic food groups, Miss Hogan said in discussing this second major series of talks before county organizations. A year ago she visited men's service organizations, with a report to men on how they can control weight -- or lose weight -- on diets built around dairy products. Women's organizations that would like to schedule Miss Hogan for this fifteen-minute, illustrated talk should contact Henry Edgerton, secretary of the Dairy Promotion council. Edgerton issued a reminder to organizations planning to sponsor a candidate in the Dairy Princess contest. Deadline for entries is May 20. Girls -- daughters of dairy farmers aged 17 to 25, single and never married -- wishing a sponsor should contact Eagerton. The annual dairy banquet will be held at Harvard June 27.
