EUTAW HOUSE Potters Mills SPECIAL DINNERS FOR SMALL GROUPS For reservations call Center Hall 48-R-3 -BEALS DRY Money-Growing Trees Precluded By Contraptions Money never did grow on trees and it looks like it never will with the modern trend toward contraptions. Members of the Agriculture Ex tension Service are using money “growing” on wooden arms to ex plain economics to farmers and foreign exchange students. This leaves the trees out for good. To teach the theory of supply and demand in a more parctical, rather than theoretical, manner, the Extension Service uses rub ber money, stage money attached to weights and small bundles to symbolize production. •%'rl H The demonstrations tend to make lectures more interesting and easier to understand. The ex tension service staff finds enter tainment facilities advantageous in drawing crowds to its pro grams. The service teaches or help's farmers throughout the state who are interested in practical infor mation concerning their prob lems. The supply and demand demonstration was originated to explain the 30 per cent increase in beef prices last year. Demonstrations are particularly helpful in teaching the American economic system to foreign stu dents. By adding weighted money and bundles to opposite sides "of a swinging arm, the students can get a visual picture of the situ ation. Unfortunately, the Agriculture Extension Service still hasn’t per fected a tree that will produce the money as well as balance it. NCAA Head —■ (Continued from page four) arships providing room, board, books, tuition and laundry. “The grant-in-aid idea has not taken up North,” he said,, “be cause officials there tell us we simply have a dual system of as sistance—one of them under the table.” Moore said "there is no cheat ing" in intramural sports pro grams in colleges, and that per haps the colleges would turn to intramural programs instead of intercollegiate competition. Commissioner Bernie Moore of the Southeastern Conference, at Birmingham, declined comment on the NCAA president’s talk. +~klaue CU e 5 I^eciclij for JUNIOR WEEKEND! Party this weekend?
