versity's official bulletin of general
information not only quoted these
figures, but emphasized that the $300
one included clothing and incidentals
books, lab fees and a $10 matricula-
tion fee, to boot.
But, as Mrs. Camilla B. Green, the
former assistant secretary of the en-
gineering college who retired last
month after 35 years of. service, read-
ily admitted when she revealed the
foregoing statistics, those days are
gone forever.
Metamorphosis Under Way
As a matter of fact, by 1912, the
metamorphosis of annual expenses
has gotten under way. Then another
100 bucks had attached themselves
to the average collegian's annual ex-
pense account, while the student had
to shell out four bucks for his 21-meal
week.
Mrs. Green, in recounting her mem-
ories of the collegian's expenses dur-
ing heryears, ofassociation with the
University, mentioned that in World
War I years-1917-1918 to be exact--
the average annual expense was over
$500. It was then that the engineer
was paying $49 tuition if he came
from Michigan, and $89 if he claimed
some other state as home. The lit
man's tuition was $44 and $64 for
state and out-state students respec-
tively.
No Dormitories Then
Board and lodging in 1918 were esti-
mated at eight silver dollars per week,
and since there were no dormitories
or commons, the student's eating and
sleeping problem was solved by room
and board with Ann Arbor's private
families.
The town, of course, wasn't exempt
from the 1929 boom times, Mrs. Green
recounts. By then the University's
official calculations for the Michigan
student's annual expenses, not includ-
ing clothing and railroad fares to and
from here at vacation time, totalled
$818.
Non - resident students' expenses
were estimated exactly 40 dollars
higher. And, $3,000 for four years
of college was then considered a pret-
ty liberal estimate of the "squeeze"
to be put on the folks back home.
However, things have since been

dead and 51,000 captives. In addition
the Russian said they now have cap-
tured 1,300 guns of all calibers, 5,518
trucks, 62 ammunition dumps and
vast quantities of equipment and food.
Inside Stalingrad, the regular mid-
night communique reported, Russian
troops had cleared the Germans from
modernized, for today such fees as
the matriculation fee which entitled
students to the privilege of permanent
membership to the University, the
diploma fees, and fees for special cer-
tificates had been abolished. Of
course, in the engineers' plight the
$120 fee for an out-stater and the
$65 for a resident student absorbs
these extras.
In the case of board, there's a cur-
rent rumor that the official estimate
is -about six of the long green with
"One" mark. However, the so called
informed students usually subtract a
unit or so from this figure and in the
case of room rent tliey tell:us that it's
anywhere from $2.50 to $5.
And, the estimated average expense
for the engineer is supposedly around
$600. But, then again as some obscure

Government Charges
A&P with Food Plot
WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-P)-Th
government accused the nation
largest food chain today of drivir,
competition out of business throug
systematic domination of local area
and drew a reply that every char
would be disproved.
The charges were made in a tw
count indictment voted by a Feder
grand jury at Dallas, Tex., against1
companies in the Great Atlantic an
Pacific Tea Company group; 16 off
cials in that group; Business Organ
zation, Inc., and its president, Ca
Byoir of New York, public relatio
representative of the chain.
The prime corporate defendant w
the New York Great Atlantic and P
cific Tea Company, Inc., parent of ti
11 other companies.
The individuals indicted imclud
George L. Hartford of Montclair, N.
and John A. Hartford of Westchest
County, N.Y., president and first vic
president respectively of the top com
pany.
The indictment was announcedi
Washington, where the investigatio
had been directed. by the Justice D
partment's anti-trust division.
The charge was made that the e
fect of the alleged conspiracy wast
"injure and destroy food manufa
turers, processors, canners, whol
salers and thousands of independe:
retail food dealers; to depress pric
paid to growers of fresh fruits, veg
tables and other farm crops; and
make, it impossible for thousan
non - integrated independents a
small chains to remain in compet
tion with tie defendants."
Also in Washington, Carl Byoir
Associates replied for the A&P gro
that the anti-trust division "is no
J attempting to create further cha
by an attack upon the methodsc
doing business which have won t
greatest approval from consume
farmers, labor and the great mass
our people."

Traditional'Pixins' Out
Because of Shortages
By The Associated Press
America observes its first wartime
Thanksgiving in 25 years today with
swollen pocketbooks and shrinking
larders.
For the first time in years, many.
with the money to buy were unable to
get the traditional turkey and some of
the "fixin's" because of local shortages
due to the war emergency.
Flush with war funds, millions
crowded food stores throughout the
country in a last minute rush to stock
up for the holiday. Agriculture offi-
cials reported that never before had
there been such a demand for food.
But because of Lend-Lease require-
ments and the need for su plying
hundreds of thousands of troops over-
seas, there were shortages of meats,
poultry, dairy products, eggs and some
vegetables.
Missing from many tables will be
the after dinner coffee (sales were
halted last week as a. prelude to ra-
tioning) .andl the piece de resistance
of some pumpkin pie eaters-whipped
cream.
The war production board issued an
order yesterday halting sales of whip-
ping cream in order to conserve fluid
milk.

At the State
Using dimmed-out Manhattan as a
background, 20th Century-Fox's "Girl
Trouble" opens today at the State
Theatre. The film stars Don Ameche
and Joan Bennett with Frank Craven
and, Billie Burke in the supporting
roles.
The story involves the troubles of
Miss .Bennett who has, just lost her
income and finds that she must reit
out her apartment. Don Ameche is
cast as a rich.South American coffee
and rubber planter. who. sub-lets the
apartment and takes Miss Bennett as
his maid.
The situation gets all tied up in
double crosses which are overheard by
the right people at the. wrong time,
but everything works out well despite,
the snarled plot. Ameche finds out
'that Miss Bennett isn't really a maid,
but a poor little rich girl .and winds
the film up in..the traditional manner
of love and kisses.
