Draws Students To A. A.
READY-DESIGNED CULTURAL CENTER
for Saline-folks is shown on display above at the
University of Michigan College of Architecture
and Design. The .elaborate-looking model was
constructed by two students in .the class of Professor Joseph Albane . . . and was designed by
them after a study of the community of Saline
with an eye to learning wljat type of building
would best.suit Salinians' cultural needs.
The model in all likelihood would be available for Saine to use as basic design for any cultural center the community might wish to build.
Only hitch is that the forward-looking model
was designed for the future Saline . . . when it
reaches a population of 15,000.
. Chances are that the structure's cost would
be prohibitive for Saline at its present population level.

If you're farming or thinking per cent more efficient.

economists at Michigan State
University think the f arm ""situation will be like in 1965.
The economists expect an expanded economy ih 1965. They
forecast a steady increase in
population, high economic activity, continued price supports
and a- continuation of the cold
war. They also expect an increase in the efficiency of the
American worker and an increase in "average real income
per person of about 20 per cent.
From .these assumptions, the
economists make these predictions:."Crop and livestock-yields
will be up about 21 per cent-
Food production will also be up
21 per cent but, non-food farm
products will be down 5 per cent
from current levels. Consump-,
tion will be about 20 per cent
higher far food products and
about 3 per cent higher for non-
foooV produgts. 13_e problem, of
surpluses will still plague farmers and average prices will decline about 8 per cent.
There will be 15 per cent fewer farms in Michigan and-the
oneslieft will be 20 to 25 per
cent larger. However, t&ey^will
If Michigan farms do not increase at-all in "size and offici-' over the top.
ency as farms in theTest of the
U. S. are expected to. do, the return to the Michigan farm operator for his labor and management could decline to about zero.
The economists present this
challenge to Michigan farmers:
They must make all the progress,
they know how to make. They
must adopt all the techniques
that they can to increase efficiency. Research must be continued and its application must be
speeded Up.
If Michigan farmers meet this
challenge, the outlook for their
future is far _j.6m dismal, believe the M.S.U. economists.
James C. Hendley, chairman
of the drive, expressed his appreciation for the generous contributions made to the drive,
and to the many volunteers who
have worked towards the success of the campaign this year.
He expressed the hope that all
