sented on "Campus Quarter" from

was established in 1931 and has
held yearly reunions.
"Campus Quarter" will also
feature a news resume of impend-
ing campus social and cultural
events.
Sponsored weekly by the Un-

produced under the direction of

basic items in 16 of the city's 60
foodstores, they have established
an average budget for low cost
food, moderate cost food, and lib-
eral cost food items.
The students, with the aid of
two Ann Arbor housewives with
previous experience in the survey
field, also determined food costs
for families of two, four, and sev-
en persons.
Their results have been com-
pared with a similar survey re-
cently taken in Detroit, and found
in most cases to be one or two
per cent higher than those find-
ings.
Results of the researcn show
that a woman between the ages
of 16 and 20 needs to pay be-
tween $4.62 and $6.10 each week
for food, depending on where it
is purchased and which quality is
bought. A man of the same age
range will need from $5.99 to $8.-
24.
Families of two must pay be-
tween $11.09 and $17.12, while a
group of four need from $18.67 to
$26.41 a week for food.
The researchers, selected from
sociology classes taught by Dr.
Ronald Freedman, chose both in-
dependent and chain stores from
all sections of the city, and incor-
porating all income levels. They
surveyed specific grades of meat
and produce, and standard sizes
of containers.
Car Presented
To Mrs. Yost
Christmas Gift Given
By Friend of Coach
Mrs. Fielding Yost just received
the biggest Christmasnpresent
she's ever had-a brand new car.
The car was given to her yes-
terday by Fred Zeder, a long-time
friend of the late Wolverine coach.
In giving Mrs. Yost her French-
blue Christmas package, Zeder
said to her, "The coach was a good
friend of mine, and I'm going to
make sure you have transporta-
tion as long as I'm alive."'
Mrs. Yost was pleased by the
gift, which will replace a car given
the Yosts on their golden wedding
anniversary in 1940. She has one
misgiving, hodiever-she doesn't
know how to drive.
Santas' Local
Seeks Action
AgainstGarg
Local 395, Union of Santa
Clauses, filed suit today against
the Gargoyle, campus humor
magazine, for conspiracy in re-
straint of trade.
"The Gargoyle," exclaimed Noel
Noel, First Vice-President In'
Charge of Laddered Stockings,
"has deliberately given us har-
bingers of Yule joy a bad time.
For example, who filled the fod-
der bags with old Gargs Tuesday
week- The doggoned reindeers
quoted Joe Miller at me for forty-
eight hours!
A Dirty Trick!
And who stuffed our test-run
chimney with 'Ensians? K. Krin-
gle, our oldest member, nearly
broke his--but then, he's getting
old.
Still, we know that the Garg's at
the bottom of this. No one else
would give Prancer a hotfoot.
We're suing them for all they've
got!"
The Gargoyle staff, whose com-
bined assets total 2 cents, did not
seem noticeably affected by the
suit. When approached by a re-
porter, Thom Strope, Managing
Editor, smiled affably.
Strope Remarkably Calm
"We have a magazine to put out,
son," he drawled to the reporter.
"It's the Christmas Gargoyle, and
it goes on sale Monday. Why
should we worry about this asi-
nine litigation? Do you remem-
ber what Patrick Henry said?"
The reporter replied that he
didn't.
Strope retorted that he didn't
either, but that it didn't really
matter, "I intend to fight them on
their own ground," he bawled.
"Come Christmas Eve, every
member of the Gargoyle staff will
be 'watching for Santa Clauses,
running from house to house, and
yelling, To arms! The redcoats
are coming'!"
Harried Students Given
Chance To Mail Parcels
Harried students will have an
extra chance to mail Christmas
packages and laundry cases when
both the Arcade and downtown
post offices extend their hours to
5 p.m. today and next Saturday.
Extra help will be put on, when-
ever possible, to eliminate long
waiting lines.
Peter Lorre
Is Featured in
German Film
"M," an internationally ac-
claimed. German crime film star-
ring Peter Lorre, will be presented
tomorrow at 3 and 8:30 p.m. in
Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre.
The picture presents the mod-
ern screen version of the life of
"Jack the Ripper," a pathological
murderer who terrorized London
at the turn of the century.
The New York Sun said, "Peter
Lorre gives one of the most amaz-
ing performances in the history of
films."
"Fritz Lang's uncanny direction
makes 'M' one of the notable con-
tributions to the art of the cin-
ema," according to the New York
Post.
The psychological reaction of
the demented killer, who is chased
by both the police and his fellow
criminals, form the essential plot
of the film.
The German dialogue is supple-
mented by complete English sub-
titles.
Tickets will be sold after 2 p.m.
today at the Mendelssohn Theatre
box office. The film is sponsored
by the Art Cinema League.
