Both men already are on the
campus, delving into the possibili
ties inherent in a situation which
will give them full opportunity to
exercise their native talents in the
field of mass feeding.
^Ijtes. Miller and Nolen are per
haps best known for their now
famous discovery of that interna
tionally favorite dish, known by
various names, which consists of a
succulent, gristly hash in a gravy
base mixed together with well
toasted isliees of properly aged
bread. I-
Dr. Nolen was instrumental in
the discovery of this dish, and it
was while hie was working with Dr*
Miller that the concoction first re
ceived wide publicity. At the time
both experts were working as cul
inary experimenters in the Prairie
View food laboratories.
Dr. Miller is a graduate of the
Betsy Cooker School of Dietetics,
having studied there for 18 years,
majoring in the toasting of whole
wheat bread. His administrative ex
perience, qualifying him for the
position of supervisor of subsist
ence, was gained while doing re-
search in the field of sanitary dish
washing ynder the supervision of
master government experts. “Us
ing the Fried Eeg For the Fourth
Time,” his thesis for his doctorate
degree, won Dr. Miller interna
tional acclaim,
j; Dr. Nolen, long recognized as an
expert in dietetics, comes td the
A&M campus from the General
Wills filling Company where he
was instrumental in the develop
ment of the palatable “C” ration
served to our nation’s armed forces
during the war. He is not a grad
uate dietician, but his practical ex
perience gained as an observer at
the U. S. S. Rubber Company and
at the Kenn-El-Ration Corporation
has more than qualified him for
his hew position. v
The Institute of Processed
Meats, more familiarly known as
the Redd Hart Company, honored
Dr. Nolen with his degree as
Doctor of Canine Nutrition.
Nolen’s experience,: according to
newly appointed Chief of Subsis
tence Jay Miller, is widespread in
the dietetics field. He was KP three
times during his Army career and
