The authors report on the fragmentation properties of jets with leading K{sup 0}{sub short}, {Lambda} or {bar {Lambda}} in high P{sub T} {pi}{sup 0} and direct photon triggered events. The strange particles are reconstructed via the charged decay modes: K{sup 0}{sub short} {yields} {pi}{sup +} pi{sup {minus}}, {Lambda} {yields} p {pi}{sup {minus}}, and {bar {Lambda}} {yields} p {pi}{sup +}. Proportional wire chambers and straw tube drift chambers are used to reconstruct strange particle decays upstream of the center of the dipole analysis magnet. Fermilab experiment E706 studies high P{sub T} interactions in pion-nulceon collisions using copper and beryllium targets at an incident energy of 0.5 TeV. The experiment uses a liquid argon calorimeter to detect and trigger on high P{sub T} electromagnetic showers.
