pion fancy rider, "Nowata Slim,"

Ovaitt, which will play some of the
recent popular swing hits.

Dr. Field Says
Vitam.ins Are
Not Essential
It should seldom be necessary to
take vitamins in addition to those
gained through a proper daily diet,
according to Dr. Henry Field, Jr.,
professor of internal medicine who
spoke over station WJR last night.
There is even a "Very remote possi-
bility" that a person would be in
danger of taking toomuch vitamins,
he said. "If a person is not well, it
would be wiser for him to consult
his physician before trying to rem-
edy the situation with extra vita-
mins," Dr. Field said, although "one
cannot object to the taking of vita-
mins by a person who is well and
wants to be sure that he gets enough,
except that it may be an unnecessary
expense."
Vitamins themselves are not foods,
but they do enable the cells of the
body to utilize food.

As a result, Prof. Dodge said, the
Allies will have to take Paris and
proceed east around that city.
Several other places where future
landings might be made were also
mentioned by Prof. Dodge. He said
that landings could be made at
Genoa and then north, but that area
could be defended easily by the Ger-
mans.
If the Allies obtain control of
the Adriatic, they might land at
the mouth of the Po River, he sug-
gested. In Italy there "would be
many difficulties barring a cross-
ing of the Appenines and the Ger-
mans would be likely to stop us
there, he said.
"The Allies face a tough job
around Rome now," Prof. Dodge
stated," as they are getting into
worse and worse country all the
time."
Harp Recital To Be Given
By Gertrude Peck Sunday
A harp recital, featuring Handel's
"The Harmonious Blacksmith," will
be presented by Gertrude J. Peck,
special student in the School of Mu-
sic at 4:15 p. m. Sunday in the Lydia
Mendelssohn Theatre.

ALLIES GAIN; GERMANS ACKNOWLEDGE BEACHHEADS: Allied forces (black arrows) have driven
inland from the French coast, repulsed German counter-attacks near Caen and cleared all their
landing beaches, it was reported. The Germans admitted "superior forces" had established two beach-
heads (black areas)--at the mouth of the Orne River and North of Carentan. Berlin radio reports
indicated German counter-attacks at Ste. Mere Eglise, Bayeux and Caen (white arrows). There was
no further word on the previously reported Allied airborne landing north of Rouen. Allies still left
specific invasion points unnamed.

F3ood Costs Cut
Eight Perceit
hI Ann Arbor
Food costs in Ann Arbor have de-
clined eight per cent in the last year,
but are still 13 per cent above the
1942 level, it was revealed yesterday
in a study recently completed by a
group of graduate students in a Uni-
versity sociology course under the di-
rection of Clark Tibbitts.
Decline Vai;es
Similar studies made in 1942 and
1943 used the same food iteais for
consideration and the same sampl of
tl n iores :r the city. Three sup'r-
markets, two neighborhood chains.
the Ann Arbor Cooperative and four
independents were visited to secure
food prices.
The rise from 1942 to 1943 was 21
per cent which was three per cent,
larger than the average rise for the
nation as recorded by the Department
of Labor. Similarly, the eight per
cent decline in the past year u sx
foundi to '>e somewhat steeper th an
that of three per cent for the nation.
Decline in Michigan cities varied from
three to four per cent for Detroit.
Follows OPA Check
A possible explanation for the de-
cline in Ann Arbor may lie ire the'
fact that the study came shortly after
the OPA check on price compliance
with food stores, the survey indicated.
Certain food groups, including
flour, cereals and beverages are still
on an upward curve, the survey show-
ed. The pronounced declines same in
meats and fresh fruits and vegetables.
The total expenditure for food in an
average family, howover, varied with
the type of store patronized.
The survey was conducted by Rose
Packer, Jonesville; Mrs. Spencer Gor-
don, Ypsilanti; Ching - Wen Hu,
Shanghai; Dorothy Potts, Ann Ar-
bor; Thomas Imse, Milwaukee; Rob-
ert Knight, Detroit; and Donald Bou-
ma, Grand Rapids.

the month.
Although the University as a whole
does not have any quota because of
the timing of the drive, University
employes are asked to buy as many
bonds as possible. Bonds may be
purchased either through the Uni-
versity or through any agency in the
city, according to Gordon C. Griffin,
chairman of the University war fin-
ance committee.
Sales at the cashier's office this
week have been very satisfactory, Mr.
Griffin said. University employes
are purchasing bonds without being
solicited to do so. Staff members at
the University Hospital and Build-
ing and Grounds have already been
solicited to purchase bonds, and are
doing so, he stated.
Ann Arbor is concentrating on sell-
ing non-E bonds this week, and have
nearly reached their quota, according
to Warren F. Cook, Wastenaw Coun-
ty war finance committee chairman.
One-hundred fifty Victory Volunteers
are now soliciting individuals in an
attempt to fill their non-E bond
quota of $1,472,250.
Ann Arbor's quota has been set at
$6,000,000, of which $1,300,000 must
be filled by the sale of E bonds,
$3,227,750 by corporations and sav-
ings banks, and $1,472,250 by the sale
the individual F and G bonds.
