Bomber Fund
Total Increased
By Fraternities
Interfraternity Ball
And Panhellenic Ball
Donate Total Profits
Much of the $3,000 in cash and
$2,000 in pledges that the Bomber
Scholarship has received during the
current school year has been due to
sorority and fraternity cooperation
with the organization, according to
Coral DePriester, '43E, chairman of
the fund.
With the 25-50 cent plan of con-
tributing a certain amount per mem-
ber for each dance, each house has
made a sizable addition to the Bomb-
er total, DePriester said.
Interfraternity Ball donated $1,000
to the fund, all its profit over ex-
penses. Panhellenic Ball, to be held
in the spring, has pledged all it takes
in, minus expenses.
Victory Vanities, held for the ex-
press purpose of netting cash for the
Bomber fund, was organized and put
on primarily by campus fraternities
and sororites.
One sorority, Delta Delta Delta,
has pledged the sum of $50 per,
month to the Bomber Fund, instead
of contributing only when it holds a
Black Market
Barbers Wield
Bowl, Shears
The black market in barbering is
looking up this week- since Ann Ar-
bor's modest tonsorialentrepreneurs
made their contribution to the high
cost of living.
Illicit baroershops have sprung upI
in dim dormitory and fraternity
rooms where amateur shear-wielders
ruin wavy pompadours, and the only
password is "I brought a bowl."
The Ann Arbor Barbers' Associa-
tion last week reviewed their in-
creased living costs, their shortage
of help, and announced their most
recent rise in the price of haircuts.
But their customers don't realize
it until the last curl is clipped and
the last cowlick slicked down.
Then, the barber smiles, puts the
chair between himself and you and
says casually, "That will be seventy-
five cents, Mister."
And the student walks out of the
shop, wishing he once more was un-
der twelve years old-when he only
would have to pay sixty-five cents
for a head-trimming.
dance. A few other houses, accord-
ing to DePriester, pledge a fixed
amount for each dance, instead of
operating on the 25-50 cent plan.

NO MORE ICE-BOX RAIDS:
Fraternities Revise Budgets
Because of High Cost of Living
By AL RAYMOND
The advent of rationing has em-
phasized the shortage of food, the
high price of food, and the great
demand for food. Particularly is the
pinch around the belt being felt in
the fraternities, where the former
plentiful supply of food has been
drastically cut.
A canvass of several Washtenaw
fraternities revealed that ninety per
cent of the houses have taken meas-
ures to combat their high food costs,
both by waiting upon themselves,
and by increasing their board bills.
Phi Delta Theta, a pioneer in the
waiting field, began its own waiting
system long ago, and during last
fall's rushing, the "kitchen quartet"
offered barbershop harmony to the
prospective pledges.
Another early entry into the wait-
ing field was Lambda Chi Alpha,
which initiated a waiting system at
the beginning of this semester. Ac-
cording to President Joseph Gwinn,
'44E, this system enabled the house
to operate without raising the board
bill.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon, feeling the
pinch more than most fraternities,
because of their former plentiful
meals, employed a dietitian to plan
their meals. Mrs. Marian George, a
dietitian for many years, was for-
merly a captain in the U.S. Army,
and during the World War Mrs.
George cooked for 210 officers and
over 300 women- With years of train-
ing, she has established a balanced
diet with the proper number of vita-
mins, and thus cut down on cost and
quantity without cutting down on
the necessary food for proper nutri-:
tion.
Mrs. George, stating that she prob-
ably realized more than any other
cook, how bad things would eventu-
ally become, wished to "impress upon
them (students) that there are defi-
nite sacrifices needed, and the boys
must cooperate and must under-
stand." With the added physical
exercise off PEM, Mrs. George said
that {a proper diet was even more
essential and made the position of
dietitian even more trying. She em-
phasized that "food must be brought
down to the feeding of the times."

A series of Sunday evening movies

the University Extension Service and

p. m. beginning March 14 in the aud-
itorium of the Kellog Dental Build-
ing.
These films, furnished by the Bu-
reau of Visual Education film library,
have been chosen because they are,
of special interest to service men
and reservists as well as to the cam-
pus and community. The programsI
will feature movies of campuses "on
the march" throughout the country.I
The programs for the March ser-
ies are: March 14, "Campus on the
March," "Negro Colleges in War-

Our Business;" March 21, "Airplane

chairman of the merchants' fact-

and meat industry is just as anxious
as the consuming public to prevent
gouging of consumers." He said Kea-
sey was in position to difect inquiry
into the reasons behind rising cost
of non-price-fixed foods, that the
group's report would be valuable in
attacking the problem, but that its
report would not of itself constitute
