University Cafeteria,
Faces Crisis as Costs Rise, Sales Fall
Price Change
Made in Effort
For Solution
By; Philip Carden
After one year of operation the new
University Dining Hall Cafeteria has
been forced a second time to readjust
its prices and now faces an extremely
.critical financial situation, it was
learned yesterday.
Although exact figures were not
available yesterday afternoon, Assist
ant Controller L. B. Rogerson disclosed
that patronage of the new dining hall
had not come up to expectations and
that it has been operating at a loss for
3ome time.
The new building, which was f inane
d partly by the WPA and partly by
borrowed funds, was intended to be
self-liquidating. One thousand dollars
must be paid on it every month.
"Something has to be done," Rog
erson said. "The cafeteria cannot show
a sustained loss since no subsidizing
funds are available for it."
He pointed out that a new price sys
tem which went into effect Thursday
is an experiment to meet the problems
and admitted that it might not prove
to be a solution. He said that if trade
decreased, as seemed likely from the
first two days of operation, another
plan would be tried.
It was learned that business decreas
ed last quarter and dropped off sharp
ly the first days of operation this' quar
ter. One of the employees estimated
that, "scarcely fifty" student passed
down the "light side" counter at break
fast yesterday morning.
Under the new pricing plan it is pos
sible to get a meat, two vegetables,
bread, butter, drink," salad and dessert
for 27 cents, or for 38 cents, depend
ing on the expense of the selection.
Last year a plate with a similar
combination was available for 25 cents
flat rate and last quarter a plate meal
was sold for 30 cents.
Considerable discontent has been ex

"SOMETHING HAS TO BE
DONE," said L. B. Rogerson, as
sistant controller and business man
ager of the University, about the
multifold problems of the Univer
sity cafeteria. He says that the in
dividual price system inaugurated
Thursday is his idea of that "Some
thing," but he's still open to other
ideas.

Winter Slate
Robert Patterson
Is First Speaker
A winter quarter program featuring
Senator Gerald P. Nye, North Dakota
Old Guard Republican; Robert Patter
son, assistant secretary of war; Harry
L. Hopkins; Speaker Sam Rayburn of
the House of Representatives, and
possibly Wendell L. Willkie, was an
nounced vesterdav by Chairman Bill
Joslin of the Carolina Political union
Nye, originally scheduled to speak
on "January 16, has postponed his
speech until early in February, after
inauguration excitement dies down.
Original plans called for Nye to de
bate on possible repeal of the Johnson
Act with Senator Lister Hill of Ala
bama; but Joslin announced that Hill
will not be able to speak at the Uni
versity, so Nye's speech will be "more
of a general nature." Senator Nye,
recognized by many as Americas
strongest isolationist, caused much
comment recently when he proposed
a resolution demanding an investiga
tion of British Empire holdings and
ownings in this country. He advocated
that those holdings should be com
pletely exhausted before the United
States even considers extending aid
to Britain.
To Speak on Defense
Patterson, who will speak on
"Problems of . National Defense," is
scheduled to appear here January 25.

To Speak Tuesday
In Memorial Hall
Over NBC Network
By Ransom H. Austin
Manfred Rogers, president of the
International Relations club, said yes

ington indicated that the address of
Former Ambassador William C. Bul
litt here Tuesday night would be in
spired by President Roosevelt to sup

side" chat last week. - '
Bullitt's address, scheduled to begin
at 9:30 in Memorial hall and be broad
cast over a coast-to-coast network of
the National Broadcasting company,
will be listed under the topic "America
and the War." Rogers said, however,
that the audience "might hear many
heretofore unrevealed facts regarding
German-American relations."
Regarded generally as President
Roosevelt's closest adviser on foreign
affairs, Bullitt had the difficult job of
directing ' this country s policy in
France after the Germans occupied
Paris and established a government
dominated by Nazis. He kept the
President informed hourly on develop
ments. Escapes Death
During the battle for Paris he nar
rowly missed death when a German
bomb hit several feet from where he
was standing and failed to explode.
After the armistice, the State De
partment felt the Ambassador's knowl
edge of Europe indispensible and
called him home for consultation.
He resigned a few days after reach
ing the United States. Admiral Wil
liam Leahy, former Governor of
Puerto Rico, has now been sent to
Vichy as American ambassador to
France.
Though making several minor ad
dresses since his arrival in this coun
try, Bullitt as yet has made only one
speech which is regarded as highly
significant, a July fourth declaration
on "Aid to Britain Short of War."
Rogers said: "We hope his speech
in Chapel Hill will be as significant
and vital as his address last July
fourth."

versity were members of the largest
class of flying cadets ever to complete
their basic flight training at Randolph
Field, Texas.

expanding Air Corps who graduated
from "The West Point of the Air"
during Christmas week were Horace
Palmer, Jr., Littleton, alumnus of
1939; Llewellyn H. Couch, Jr., Mon

The low-winged monoplanes of the
4,000 embryo pilots annually stationed
at Randolph Field are a familiar sight
over the South Texas plains as the

Fordham Closing
Second Margin
By Orrille Canpbell
MADISON SQUARE GARDEN,
New York, Jan. 4. Two perianal fouls
in the last 50 seconds of pl 4 tcved
disastrous to the University of. North
Carolina White Phantoms here tcnht,
and Fordham university won ? . aey
of a ball game, 42 to 41.
Joe Nelson had just sIk i - field
goals from the left court a. w last
two minutes of play and the - Keels
were ahead, 41 to 40,
Then George Glamack. who never
played a better game than did in
the Garden tonight, fouled fch,
Fordham center. Babich had two snots,
made one, and the ball game was tied
up 41 all. The foul called on Glamack
was the fourth for the All-American
George, and he left the game tonight
amid the greatest ovation any athlete
received in this historic stadium.
George was truly great. He scored
17 points to lead both teams, and his
defensive play, especially in the sec
ond half, was almost perfect.
Back to the ball game. With the
score tied, there was 30 seconds of play
remaining and the ball was in Fordham
possession. Loeffler, Fordham for
ward, attempted to shoot, and Rose
fouled him. Loeffler made one shot
good to give Fordham the lead, and
with 12 seconds play remaining Ford
ham refused the second shot, took the
ball out, and froze it to end the game.
Carolina had led .26 to 21 at the
half. To open the second period Ford
ham grabbed six points and went ahead,
27 to 26. Pessar sunk a two pointer
and Carolina led again.
Fordham then grabbed five more.
Trailing, 33 to 28, Carolina went on
the march. Severin shot a long one
along with Jimmy Howard.
A foul shot and a field goal gave
Fordham three more. The score read
36 to 34 for Fordham and Glamack
went to work. Two field goals on his
part tied it up, and a foul shot put the
Tar Heels ahead, 37 to 36.
Fordham grabbed four, and Nelson
dittoed for Carolina. Here the two
fouls were called and the ball game
ended. ,
Carolina made a very fine showing,

"We hope the students' interest in
super-colossal entertainment, and mer

operate in booming ticket sales for
Sound and Fury productions this
week," Carroll McGaughey, president
of the organization said yesterday.
Sound and Fury members will can-
vass the dormitories for sales, and
tickets will also be on sale at the of
fice in Graham Memorial, in the
YMCA, and at Ledbetter-Pickard's in
the village.
Definite dates for tryouts and the
initial production, "Standing Room

present.

include proportionately all sections of
the campus, is similar to that of na

virtually exact percentages.
