Starts New Job at 60 As Nutritionist to Millions Mrs. Margot Higgins, a widow and a grandmother, has found a new career at age 60 as a nutritionist for CARE, the overseas aid agency. Now that her three children are grown, her former career as a homemaker is completed. The new one enables her to apply her knowledge and experience to CARE's world-wide program to feed 28,000,000 people in 33 countries.

Past Determined Interest Mrs. Higgins' interest in nutritions. tion began when she was married in 1930. Remembering her experiences as a child in England during World War she decided to learn the science of nutrition so that her children would be healthy. "When I was in elementary school in Derby, lunch consisted of two slices of bread which were weighed," she said.

"It was made of some starchy filler and tasted awful. We had constant colds. Most of us were always sniffly and anemic." Since she already had an honors degree in French from the University of London, Mrs. Higgins enrolled in a two-year program in nutrition at London Polytechnic College. Limiting Conditions In 1939, the young mother and her family left England, came to the United States and settled near New Orleans, during World War II.

Three limiting conditions then, she said, were rationing of meats, fats and canned goods; meat shortages and food prejudices. "There was enough if you knew. food values and substitutes. Informed people bought calves' heads or pigs' feet, which were ration-free. Many didn't realize the food-value of the local poor people's diet of red beans and rice," she pointed out.

"A knowledge of nutrition is invaluable in a hardship situation." CARE's millions of beneficiaries are all in hardship situaSome are refugees; some are victims of earthquake, flood, famine or other disaster; but most suffer the continuing hardship of inefficient farming methods, harsh climate, poor soil and low yielding seeds. Food is distributed in emergencies to relieve immediate needs and in long-term programs to improve living conditions coordinated with "selfhelp" projects in health, education and economic development. Long-Term Programs The current Food Crusade provides a way for American donors to send 6,000,000 food packages overseas for $1 each. One of the most important longterm programs is to improve the mental and physical development of 20,000,000 school children by improving their diet. Every day, the children are given meals, made with combinations of milk powder, flour, wheat, vegetable oil and CSM, a formula of corn meal, soy flour and milk powder.

The meals are made to resemble local dishes as closely as possible. Mrs. Higgins collects and adapts these recipes from missions in Asia, Africa and Latin America. "New foods must be put in familiar clothes," she explained, "because, of all prejudices, those about food are the strongest and even more so among people who can least afford them. People accustomed to rice, for example, would find it difficult to accept wheat or corn." Even the name of a food is important, Mrs.

Higgins noted. She recalled an incident in Turkey when children were served frankfurters. They were told that in America the dish is called "hot dogs." When this was translated into Turkish, sicak kopek, the children were horrified. Remedying a Blunder Quickly realizing the blunder, the American counselor told them it was just a nickname and that hot dogs were really the purest of beef. "Feeding school children is like an investment in the future," the CARE nutritionist explained.

"Certainly, they will be healthier adults, but immediate results can be seen too. They become more alert; they learn more quickly and they resume a normal growth pattern.
