XXIV USC Sponsors Investigation Of High ~ating Costs Here Cafeteria Exposed As Most Expensive Of Places Checked A student of the University of Louisville may eat outside the campus at 25 percent less cost than at the U niversitv cafeteria. This was the conciusion reached by a USC committee, consisting of Kitt Cox and Dave Jones, in-vestigating the prices charged by the cafeteria. Four Restaurants Compared The committee took four restaurants off Belknap campus having similar clientele, and sanitation ratings, and about the same number of persons as the U of L cafeteria. They made a comparative list prices for an average dinner meal, consisting of meat, 2 vegetables, salad, rolls and butter, and coffee. The establisments chosen for study were The Dinner Bell on Kentucky Street; Thompson's Cafeteria on 4th St.; the College Inn on Eastern Parkway; and Miller's Cafeteria on South 2nd Street. Comparative Prices Cited The survey revealed that the average price of a dinner meal at the Dinner Bell was between 70- 85 cents, at Thompson's Cafe, 55- 65 cents; the Cottage Inn, 75 cents; and Miller's Cafe, 55-75 cents, depending upon the choice of meat. Miller's also sells meal tickets at $4.75 for $5 of food on a weekly basis. However, the investigators discovered that 'prices were 25% higher at the U of L cafeteria. The absolute minimum price for the average dinner is 83 cents, the By LINDSAY ALMAND Cardinal Co-Editor average price usually being about $1. The individual prices at the U of L cafeteria are as follows: meat (the cheapest) 35 cents; vegetable, one at 12 cents the other at 15 cents; salad, 10 cents; coffee, 5 cents; bread, 2 cents per slice; butter, 2 cents. The total is 83 cents, the absolute minimum. The minimum price at establishments off campus is 55 cents, while the average is about 75 cents. Unlike other restaurants operating on a profit basis, the University cafeteria is, in theory, to be a non-profit section of the University. The cafeteria operates at a bare overhead: it pays no water bills, is exempt from restaurant taxes and property taxes, is maintained and kept up by the University. It is paying its help, consisting of 22 employees, the minimum wage. Personnel working in the Snack Bar also are employed in the cafeteria. Because of an unvarying number of students who patronize the cafeteria, the investigators pointed out that purchasing for the cafeteria should remain fairly constant. Unlike other restaurants which give service and meals, students who patronize the cafeteria are forced to carry their own trays, and get other items necessary for the meals. ·From this information, Kitt Cox and Dave Jones concluded that, since overhead is at a minimum, prices should be lower. Cafeteria Operates On 105% Kltt Cox requested for an official report of the cafeteria's operations. The report give n to Tom Pfau, president of USC, was as follows: raw food costs 50%, labor cost 50%, net losses 5%. No explanation was given of the factors which cause the 5% deficit. NSA Congress Planned At OS U To Coincide With Ohio Fete The United States National Student Association will hold its Sixth Annual Congress at Ohio State University, August 24 to September 2, in conjunction with the Ohio Sesquicentennial, ac-cording to Richard J. Murphy, NSA president. "The Four Freedoms In Higher Education" will be the theme of this year's meeting. President Dwight D. Eisenhower, MSA Director Harold Stassen, Hunter College President George Shuster, ·and Commentator Edward R. Murrow are among the notables who have been asked to address sessions of the Congress. Student Presidents To Meet The Association will sponsor the annual Student Body Presidents' Conference, August 20 through 23, at the same site. The Reverend Vincent J. Flynn, President of the College of Saint Thomas, has been invited to keynote the meeting of the student body presidents. THURSDAY. MARCH 26, 1953 More than 500 official student representatives are expected to participate in the two conferences. The Congress is to serve as the highlight for the youth activities of the Ohio Sesquicentennial being celebrated in Columbus, home of Ohio State University. Four Attended Last Year Tom Pfau, USC president, Dave Jones, NSA Commissioner, Tim Bornstein, Co-Editor of the Cardinal, and Judy Shelton, News Editor of the Cardinal, represented the University of Louisville at the Fifth Annual NSA Congress last summer at Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana. However, Mr. Pfau failed to divulge the source of the financial report; Mr. George Funk, manager of the University Cafeteria refused to comment upon the situation. Therefore, t h e students reached the conclusion that the financial report is false or the management is inefficient. The student investigators quoted an informed source as saying that the cafeteria maintains its prices at the present level to cater to employees of Reynold's Metals Co. on ~rd Street, and the Buckeye Cotton Oil Company on Floyd, and other nearby commercial businesses. Conclusions Are Incriminating The following conclusions were reached by the investigating committee : (1) that meals can be bought off campus for 25% less than food bought at the U of L cafeteria, (2) that the financial report is obviously not valid, (3) that with the prospect of losing money the cafeteria! would not keep its doors open to the general public as the University is in no position to carry a 5% deficit incurred by the cafeteria, ( 4) and that since the financial report was not given' in good faith, no credit can ge attached to its figures. In view of the information collected, investigators offered several remedies: (1) give the student a reduction between 20-25% or a meal ticket with a reduction attached, (2) employ student help, (3) run the cafeteria expressly for the students and not the public, ( 4) call for an investigation which would be clear and open with no restrictions upon investigating the financial status of the Cafeteria. The USC investigation was sparked by a letter which appeared in The Cardinal written by Kitt Cox and signed by about 30 dormitory students. Dean David Lawrence was in full accordance with the student investigation. Kemper To Discuss Polls On TV Show . "Do Public Opinion Polls Help Democracy?, is the topic for the panel discussion to be held on the "University Today" program over WAVE-TV Monday night from 10 to 10:30. Participating in the panel will be Dr. Raymond A. Kemper, Associate Professor and Head of the Psychology Department at U of L; Dr. Louis Kesselman, Associate Professor and Head of the Political Science Department; Judy Shelton, student at U of L majoring in economics-commerce; and Ed O'Neil, City Editor of the Louisville Times. The panel will be moderated by Dick Wangerin, consultant on audio-visual activities for U of L. The "University Today" series is directed by Bob Franck and produced by Dr. Harvey C. Webster.
