NAKAMURA:
Co-op Serves 'Do-It-Yourself' Meals
By JOHN WEICHER
A number of students at Naka- 4
mura House treat the problem of
cooking for large groups in a novel i
way..
Th students are residents of .,
one of the eight co-operative
houses on campus. They cook their.
own meals and do all the work at
the house to keep expenses down..
One chief cook is responsible for ""
each of the 20 weekly meals. (No:
supper is served on Sunday.) .He;
gets to work about four hours be-:
fore serving time; cooking for 55.
people takes a while.
Completely in charge of meal
production, he has one assistant
who starts to help much later, do-
ing such chores as setting the
table.::f

9 DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN

Food Budget Low
Dinner is the big meal at Naka-
mura..The residents feel that it's
better to have one big, good meal
and two lighter ones than three
which are medium-sized and unap-
petizing. This plan also helps
keep the food budget under ten
dollars a week per man.
Dishwashing is handled by two
other students, who often do this
two or three times a week to fulfill
their work quota.
A central Inter-Purchasing Fund
supplies canned goods to all the
co-ops. Nakamura House buys its
meat and dairy products from a
Prof. Meyer
To Talk Today
A look into "Prospects for the
Middle Eastern Economy" will be
presented at 4:15 p.m. today by
Prof. A. J. Meyer of Harvard Uni-
versity.
The speech, under the auspices
of the Near Eastern Studies de-
partment will be held in Auditor-
ium C, Angell Hall.
According to Prof. William D.
Schorger of the anthropology and
near eastern studies departments,
with "the immediate economic
Prof. Meyer's speech will deal
prospects in the Near East, the ef--
feet of current aid and national
economic programs."
Prof. Meyer, Prof. Schorger said,
has served for over seven years in
United Nations development pro-
grams and is at present adminis-
tering a survey of Pakistani eco-
nomic development for Harvard
University and a private survey on
economic conditions in Cyprus.
German Contest
Winners Disclosed
The German department recent-
ly announced the winners of the
Kothe-Hildner Competition for
German students.
The first and second prizes of
$45 and $30 were awarded to Dan
Slobin, '60, and William Denison,
'58, according to Prof. Henry
Nordmeyer of the German depart-
ment.

SUPPER-Cooking is one of the work activities of Nakamura
House residents. One man is responsible for each meal, and both
plans and prepares it.

local farmer, as do most of the
other houses.
Each roomer and boarder at the
house is responsible for about five
hours of work per week. Because
"Nak" House is the largest in the
co-op system, work quotas are low-
er than in some of the other
houses.
The work program often scares
people away from joining co-ops,
but members have found the sys-
tem works very well, once you get
used to it. "You can only study so
many hours a day," House Presi-
dent Harley Ristad, '57E, said.
Working, he feels, simply puts to
good use time that would normally
be wasted.
Strive For Self-Sufficiency
The men living at the house try
to be as self-sufficient as possible.
All minor troubles are taken care
of by whoever happens to know
something about the particular
field. More extensive repairs are

handled by outside firms, but only
after making sure the job is being
done as inexpensively as possible.
Nakamura House is quietly
proud of its large number of for-
eign students, as are the other
houses. These students, on limited
budgets, have found no cheaper
way of living at the University.
These students also provide evi-
dence of the long-standing co-
operative policy of admitting stu-
dents in the order in which they
apply, without regard to other cri-
teria. The Inter-Cooperative Coun-
cil publishes a pamphlet called
"Democracy in Action," which the
house members take for granted.
They don't express it in the
same terms, however. "We have
something here we like," is the
general feeling about life in Naka-
mura House. "We always manage
to find enough people who agree
with us to keep going and keep
expanding."

By JIM BOW
A Union international committee
"to provide the means for better
integrating foreign students into
the University community" was
proposed in a report by the Un-
ion international sub-committee,
recently.
The recommendation calls for an
International Committee which
would be represented on the Un-
ion Executive Council and includ-
ed in the Union Student Activities
Committee structure.
The sub-committee report is the1
result of investigation during the
past several months into the Un-
ion's potential role in integrating
foreign students into the student
body.
"Brother System" Proposed
One project proposed for the In-
ternational Committee is an "Am-
erican brother system" in which
foreign students would have the

opportunity to learn about Univer-
sity life and establish friendships
with the American student."
Other proposed projects are a
booklet explaining "opportunities
present. for associtions between
foreign and American students,"
and an activities orientation pro-
gram for foreign students.
"There are 1200 male foreign
students on campus, and the Un-
ion has a definite, responsibility
to this very significant segment of
the student body," the report ex-
plained.
Consideration in April
Don Young, '58, international
sub-committee chairman, said that
the recommendations "will be con-
sidered in April when the new Un-
ion officers are elected."
