The progr am of the evening was an address by Dean Riggs of DePauw University. His theme was "What DePauw Urriverslty Means to Greencastle” ami he touched also upon what the community means to D<— Patiw, and stressed the desire and intention ol the university for the closest and friendliest possible relations between the

two.

Dean Riggs spoke first of tincultural value of DePauw. Last year there were 57 musical programs open to the public. These were mostly free. The dean sirid we were inclined to take our talent for granted. Dr. Thompson and others of our fai • ulty are musicians of national reputation as performers and composers. The public has, also, student talent in band, orchestra, choir-, voice, organ and piano recitals as well as plays and inter - pretivc dancing. For those who > njoy sjioi'ts the DePauw athletics are available Radio station WORE functions 8 hours a day, six days a week. The facilities of this station are open to our community. Local news, “Around the Town,” “Town and Gown," “Greencastle Schools pn the Air," "Rural Roundup" “Chamber of Conunerce” and “Moments of Meditation” being programs of int .'rest to all. The townspeople are welcome to make free use of the college library with no red tape involved Enrolling for special courses in the university Is also open to anyone. Dean Riggs spoke next of the professional services rendered the community. Projects and surveys by student, participation of faculty and faculty families in church, civic and social activitres. cooperation with Red Cross, tire health program and law enforcement. DePauw afforda meeting places for large groups not connected with the university; and Greencastle benefits from the vast publicity programs of DePauw, which FMM hM every -tale and foreign countries. Our community is also publicized by national groups which meet from time to time on its campus. DePauw is a financial asset to Greencastle. The extent of this is perhaps not fully appreciated by the community. Our post office and railroads and bus lines profit. The 375 persons working for DePauw, as faculty and in other capacities, receive In salaries and wages $850,000.00. Most of this money is spent in Greencastle. Of the 375 employed, many own homes here The total expenditui lor DePauw tor one year w

about a million and a half dollars. As much of this as possible is expended locally. Breaking down these figures is interesting. In 1949-50 DePauw students spent $233,000 in Greencastle. Laundry and cleaning for men was $38,000.00, for women over .$15,000.00, DePauw men spent $29.(»00.00 on movies, mak ing the amount the girls spent on movies too small to notice. Women buy $15,000.00 and men buy $9,000.00 worth of gifts in Greencastle in a year. Cosmetics is about equal for the sexes and runs between eleven and thirteen thousand for a year. Flowers, however, arc where the men score $13,411.00 spent in one school year by DePauw swains. The restaurants of Greencastle were patronized by DePauw men and women to the tune of $77,000.00. Married students spent $24,000.00 in one year for groceries, and were no doubt able to walk home witli this produce in a few oversized paper bags! These figures could go on indefinitely. The university is anxious to see the town prosper' industrially and in every other way. Any gro ,p of people is more than the individuals who compose It. That is the value of anil excuse for organizations. A school, a (Tub, a community has a tone a feeling that can be recognized DePauw appreciates the Greencastle community and hopes in return to create for the town a tone of moral, spiritual and cultural value. Tip Toppers Club Mel with Mrs. Goodin On the afternoon of Jan. 22, the Tip Toppers eiub met at the home of Mrs. Janies Goodin with Mrs Wayne Sinclair as assistant hostess. The meeting was opened by tire president. Mrs. Wayne Sinclair. New book for 1952 were passed out. The creed was led by Mrs. Noble Allee. The history of the song of the month “Keep the Home Fires Burning" was read by' Mrs. Hamid Cox and -sung in unison by' 12 member s. Roll call was "A New Years' Resolution”. A safety Miggestroil on fire was given by Mrs. Chester Hutcheson. The Outlook lesson was given by Mrs. Jiunes Goodin. The lesson on "Cute and Repair of Eeletrrcal Equipment” was given by Mrs. Earl Allen and assisted by Mr. Kobe! Zeigelman Jr. Dues of 1952 were payed in. It was ■voted to have "Secret Pals" In the dub. Tire social and visiting period consisted of a contest given by Mrs. Cloyd Allen and won by Mrs. Chester Hutcheson. The hostess served delicious refreshments Tlie next meeting will be with Mrs. Harold Cox Kcb. 19. and toll call will be a Valentine exchange. Everyone bring a Valentine.

EMPLOYMENT I P INDIANA POLLS. Jan 25 (UPt Nonmamrfacturing employment in Indiana last month stood at 706.H00. the highest ever- reported. Tire Indiana employment security division said today the figure represented a one per cent increase over the same month in 1950. However, manufacturing employment was estimated at 585,900, a little below a year ago. Figures showed that 1,292,700 persons wer e employed on nonagrirultural jobs Dec. 15, a small gain from November to December and reversing a two-month trend.
