LaVon Eblen wonders if you’ve been spending some of your extra time cooking!

“Ancient” history. This is the cookbook I won as a result of contest offered by Betty Crocker. It required an essay titled, “Homemaker of Tomorrow”. There could be one winner in every Home Economics Department. My book is the eighth printing of the First Edition with a copyright in 1950. The award included a gold pin inscribed on the back with the contest name and date given. The contest continued for a number of years. Do you know anyone who participated?
