Food Committee To Report Today

After nearly a month of verbal conflict over the food situation in the civilian Houses, the Student Council has succeeded in improving the menus of the dining halls and will issue a statement on its findings following their meeting tonight.

After preventing a probable food-strike by the student body by arranging an open meeting between House dining hall officials and student representatives in the Adams House Common Room, the Council proceeded to investigate the dining halls and University food books.

Given Publicity

John W. Ellison '44, who headed the council subcommittee on the food investigation declared last night that although the project received "some unfavorable newspaper publicity," it got the "popular support" of most of the people concerned at the College.

The only complaint which has not as yet received any action from the University is the matter of inter-House dining privileges. According to the Council Committee, this privilege has been withheld from the students by the University in order to encourage the individual's making friends in the House in which he lives.

Council officials are still in hopes of the reinstatement of this privilege, however since it is known that at least one civilian House Master is in favor of it. The food situation constitutes the first student Council investigation this summer. Those Council members who served as the Council food sub-committee include William W. Dunn '46, Maurice M. Osborne '45, Robert W. Regan '46, Paul D. Tibbetts '45, and Ellison.
