Student Co-op
Houses Prove
Inexpensive
By Hayden Carrsth
"Students at American colleges and
universities, through cooperative hous
ing projects, are cutting their ex
penses more than 30 per cent," said
Dr. L. M. Brooks, professor of cooper
ation in the sociology department.
With the first co-op student house
at the University already under way,
Carolina joins the hundreds of Ameri
can universities that are saving stu
dent costs. The 12 Carolina self-help
students that have leased a two-story
brick structure on Mallette Street are
introducing what promises to be a per
manent feature in. the future. . ?
Four Purdue University students,
feeling the press of college expenses,
founded the first co-op in that school
in 1935. In 1940 more than 300 Pur
due students were living cooperatively
in 16 houses. Their arrangements pro
vided that from $19 to $23 a month
covered all expenses usually falling
under room and board.
At the University of Michigan 300
students live in 11 cooperative houses
at $2 to $5 a week for room and
board.
More than 500 co-ops in American
universities and colleges are flourish
ing from the University of Maine to

A Full House
Poker Sessions Highlight
Batt's Relaxation Hours
By Paul Komisaruk
t Official Washington relaxes after
7 o'clock in the evening and the
"big four" sits down to a poker game,
and national defense efforts take
shape.
The "big four," representing as
tough a foursome as Washington can
produce, includes Jesse Jones, Harry
Hopkins, Leon Henderson, and the
hardest man to beat, William L. Batt.
Hardest to Beat
Jones, the relentless government
moneylender of the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation, Hopkins, the
President's flying emissary, Hender
son, the country's price fixer, and
OPM Deputy Director Batt, deal out
the cards and talk "business." v
Washington observers report that it
is usually the price fixer that's fixed,
the money lender that writes the
check. They also admit they would
give anything to hear the conversation
during the nocturnal poker sessions.
Finger-Tip
Batt, the big business man who
rarely loses, has business and Wash
ington at his finger-tips. Speaking
here Friday night, for the CPU, his
Memorial hall speech at 8 o'clock has
attracted national interest. Back from
a hurried trip to Russia he will be
