Inflation has masticated the
UNC cafeteria system.
The self - sustaining cafeter
ia announced yesterday that
a 33.4 per cent price hike in
their raw food index, and a
21.82 per cent increase in wage
costs over the past two years ,
have been the main reasons
for the rise in prices at the
cafeterias.
The shocking price increase
means that today the cafct?r
ia's dollar buys only two -thirds
of what it did in 1964.
STUDENT SPECIAL
The cost c.f a "student spe
cial" has risen from forty
cents to sixty cents in the last
year and a half.
After maintaining the spec
i?l at forty cents for the ele
ven years from 1954 - 1965, th
cafeteria found that is funds
had been decreasing annually.
The only solution, save bank
ruptcy, was to raise the stu
dent prices.
George Prillman, Director of
Dining Halls, told the D T H
that a student can still exist
on $1.50 a day, but as UNC
Business Manager J. A. Wil
liams pointed out, "most stu
dents have a larger appetite."
CAFETERIA LACKS
CONTROL
The most frightening part is
the lack of control the cafe
teria has on the prices it pays
for its own food.
Price lists on twenty - five
select items (list.d) are re
ceived weekly from the major
meat packing firms, such as
Armour, Siwif t, and Wilson.
The cafeteria then chooses
the product on a "low bid"
basis. That is, it buys the
least expensive brand.
Staples and milk are bought
by the State Division of Fur
chase and Contract in Raleigh-,
This, however, is the only mass
buying the cafeteria actually
does.
The figures in the chart in-
elude the average prices per
givsn quantity that the cafe-
teria (Lenoir. Chase, the Pine
room and the Monogram Club)
paid in 1964 and those which
they are paying now. They
show an average increase of
33.4 par cent.
The other unpredictables
which destroyed last year's es
timates and wrought an $80,000
loss on the cafeteria were:
A 10 per cent increase in
base pay for all employees.
the State Legislature's
Matching Fund of 11.82 per
cent of all base pay (This was
previously unheard of, and
combined with the 10 per cent
pay increase, it meant a to
tal increase of 21.82 prr cent
in wage costs.)
the working week was de
creased from forty - right
hours to forty hours, which
forced the cafeteria to hire
more workers.
TWO OVERHEADS
Prillaman noted that Chase
Cafeteria, while a part of the
'Finian's
Playmakers' Season Here
"Finian's Rainbow," the
season's first Carolina Play
makers production will open
in Memorial Hall at 8 tonight.
One of the few musicals to
be revived twice on Broad
way, "Finian" is a song to the
people of the mythical South-
ern state of Missitucky.
The play, which has been
described as a "smile through
your tears musical fantasy,"
played before New York au
diences in 1947, 1955, and
again in 1960.
The reason for "Finian's"
popularity is that it's topical.
The people of Missitucky are
not very different from the
ones in North Carolina, Vir
ginia, or any oP southern state.
They harvest tobacco and cot
ton every year, worry over the
high cost of living, and dream
of the day "When the Idle Poor
Became the Idle Rkh."
Oh, yes ... the people of
Missitucky have a touch of ra
cial bigotry, too, in the per
son of the politically ambiti
ous Senator Billboard Raw
kins. But whenever he comes
around, the people just "Look
to the Rainbow", and before
they know it, their hearts
start to pound, their feet start

volume from Lenoir Hall, and
this caused two large over
heads instead of only one.
Another hardship is that all
repairs and renovation costs
fall on the shoulders of the
cafeteria; they are not paid for
by the state.
Lenoir Hall is to be renovat
ed next summer but the tre
mendous loss suffered last
year will handicap this proj

50 cents on food
12 cents on operating costs
such as electricity, silverware,

A Firedrill?
What It Was, Was . . .
By KAREN FREEMAN
DTH Staff Writer
Spencer's freshmen girls ran onto the
lawn in raincoats and towels at 12:35 a.m.
Thursday while the bagpipes played the
Alma Mater.
After recovering from their surprise, the
men stood by and cheered.
The occasion was what was supposed to
have been Spencer's first fire drill.
Usual fire drill procedure is for every
girl to stop what she is doing, or get out of
bed, and grab a raincoat, towel, and shoes,
and run outside.
For obvious reasons, the time for the
drill is not announced. So while plans for
the drill were being made, different plans
were being made at a Carolina fraternity
house.
A group of pledges was told to serenade
the dorm, led by a bagpipe-carrying, kilt
clad "Scot."
When the two forces met, the result was
women receiving men visitors after closing
hours.
The girls, most still half-as-cep, panicked
when the pledges' presence became known,
but instilled obedience made them go out
despite their dismay.
Meanwhile housemother Mrs. Loffing
well, thinking of a potential panty raid, hast
ened to tell the girls that under the cir
cumstances it was not necessary to go out
side, but the well-trained girls proved too
fast for her.
Not all of the plans for the night were
abandoned, however. The pledges serenad
