Higher Prices Necessary In Cafeteria To Maintain Quality Of Food, Service
By DONALD PRINGLE
Increased prices and improved service now confront students who eat in the Union cafeteria and Hawks Nest.
Old man inflation is finally hitting at food prices in the cafeteria. Meat is the main food to rise in price.
Meat for the cafeteria is selected from the products offered by four large meat packers. Since quality will not be sacrificed for a lower price, prices for the customer have of necessity been raised to 2 and 4 cents.
If it is any satisfaction to know, all hamburger used in the Union is pure meat, and franks used are the top quality.
To offset the price rise in some foods, pie and cake have been cut from 15 to 10 cents. Salads are 13 cents instead of 12 cents.
Several revisions have been made in the food service. Weinies and sauerkraut, once inseparable, are separate dishes.
Employees in the cafeteria discovered many students ate only one
Continued good service and good food plus the new policy permitting dancing, is expected to make the Hawks Nest the favorite student hangout.
pancake and preferred jelly to syrup. So now pancakes are 5 cents each with syrup extra, instead of two for 20 cents.
Already the Hawks Nest is averaging 3500 to 4000 customers a day. This week service will be expanded to include chili, soup and sandwiches.
Customers may now select their own bread, rolls, and butter, thereby speeding up the line.
The Union altogether has between 5 and 6,000 customers a day. Between 700 and 800 students eat their noon meal each day in the cafeteria, a few less in the evening.
As in meat purchasing, the fruit and vegetable brands bought are those which give the highest quality at the best price. Almost as large a problem as planning the menus, selecting and pricing the food, is that of obtaining enough help to run the cafeteria and Hawks Nest.
Miss Ruth Munroe, food director, welcomes any suggestions on how to further improve service and the available room for improvement, she said.
Few eating establishments go to so much trouble in selecting food as the cafeteria. This week-end a "cutting" will be taken. Sample cans of the products of various canneries are delabled and the contents blind tested.
Paul Arrowood, S.U.A. president,
said that Herman and his Herd who are scheduled to play at a dance in Manhattan next week, wanted a stop in between. Herman, Arrowood says, prefers to play for college students.
Last year the S.U.A. had Harry James and his band here. However, more than two months were available for advertising and publicity.
The S.U.A. operating board obtained the approval of L. C. Woodruff, dean of men, to have the dance and secured extension of closing hours for women attending the dance until midnight.
The admission is $1.50 a person.
Spectator tickets are 75 cents.
Herman will bring his full 16 piece orchestra which includes seven trombones, four trumpets, drums, bass, and piano, and also featured singers. Herman plays the clarinet
Less than a week remains before Herman's Herd will be here. Plans have been made for skits, an agent for each organized house, posters, and advertising.
The orchestra began in 1939. It first featured Dixieland blues but gradually changed to modern jazz. The type of music he presents is ever-changing to meet the tastes of the public.
His orchestra is one of the few which have won the approval of a classical composer. Igor Stravinski wrote "Ebony Concerto" especially for the Woody Herman orchestra. It was first played in Carnegie hall.
Publicity costs and rental fee for Hoch auditorium must be paid out of the money S.U.A. makes on the dance.
Dr. Cloy S. Hobson, associate professor of education, has been elected chairman of the state commission for the improvement of elementary teaching.
The 20-member committee was appointed by the state superintendent of public instruction, Adel F. Throckmorton, Miss Opal Jane Kennedy, principal of Pinckney school of Lawrence, is another committee member.
Educator Named Committee Head
In recent years Dr. Hobson has been directing a graduate seminar to determine criteria for evaluation of public schools.
