El'UliNii'b i' Ai>JUlULN CliNTilK Co-op Manager Back From Vacation; Says Prices Low Here Returning to his work last week after the first mid-winter va cation in his life and the inspection of five major southern college co operative stores, University Co-op Manager M. F. McClain said that no store was underselling and only one was equaling University Co-op prices. This includes such things as notebooks, paper, etc. Stores using the dividend system, and di viding the profits among the stu dents, are selling at prices consid erably higher, he said. Stanford, with approximately the same enrollment as the Uni versity, does a textbook business about twice as great as the Co-op, McClain said. This may be ae accounted for by the fact that more students own their own text books rather than doubling and tripling their ownership of a book, he said. The well-organized reserve book system at the University also plays its part in bringing down sales, McClain said. UCLA, although not to such a great extent as Stan ford, does a bigger textbook busi ness, he said. The “unusual” California weath er and the basketball team were topics brough up by the Co-op manager several times. He en joyed, he said, telling the Californ ians that he saw more snow in two weeks in California than he had seen in Oregon in five years. There was even one inch of snow in Palm Springs, the famous winter resort. The dust storms, he said, did a great deal of damage in the citrus fruit belt. California students and ex-Web foots arc very proud of the basket ball team, think they will play in the championship playoff, but are a, bit puzzled by the score in the Oregon State game. McClain met many former stu dents and faculty members. Among Lhe ex-faculty members was Dr. John Bovard, former dean of phy sical education here, who is in the best of health and enjoying his teaching at UCLA, McClain said. Dean Hale of the USC law school, jnce dean of the University law school, was another with whom McClain visited. -j— cleared out of the room.

At times utilizing agility and grace—again disporting themselves with artis tic awkwardness, they won the confidence and enthusiasm of their audience.
