A. & P. Celebrates
80th Anniversary

Celebrating its 9Oth birthday, the

Pioneer in modern methods OF
mass distribution, the A & P has
been the leader in developing
Twentieth Century techniques for
distributing quality food at low
prices. From the birth of the or
ganization just before the Civil
War, its main objective has been
tC reduce consumer costs by elini
mating unnecessary steps in dis
,ribution.
The A & P chain was estao-
lished IN 1859, Wnen George Hunt
illgton Hartford, tall bearded
young man from Maine opened the
doors Of his first red-fronted store
il Vesey street in New York
city. Today the stores are familiar
sights throughout the country and
play an important part in the daily
lives of millions Of farmers, pro-
ducers and consumers.
Based on a policy C cutting oper-
atlng costs and passing the savings
to the consumer, the first store en-
joyed an immediate success. At that
time tea was selling for 81 per
pound, but young Hartford pur-
chased the entire cargo Of one ship
and cut the price to 30 cents q
pound.
Adherence to the policy Of eco
Monty, developed by the elimination
Of all in-betWeen costs. stimulated
public demand for additional stores
which were opened in steadily in
creasing numbers. In the first ten
years Hartford opened ten stores
and by 1874 he was operating 25
units. Today the first red-front
store of Hartford's has grown into
the Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea
Company, operating thousands Of
units in SO states and the District
Of Columbia.

Deacons Are
Determined ] Q
Win Saturday

Wake Forest, Oct. 19.-Fired with
the incentive of going into ,heir
Duke game next week with out
one defeat against them, and ihe
likelihood of the Devils having The
same record Wake Forests Demon
Dcacons will be giving their nigh
est all against an inspired Western
Maryland eleven here on Gore
Field Saturday hight.
The kickoff is scheduled Tor 8
o'clock and the game will mark
the end and climax Of Wake For
ests homecoming day.
Besides the fact that Saturday IS
homecoming here at the Baptist IN
stitution, and that victory over
the Green Terrors would push their
seasonal record even with Dukes,
probably the real reason Coach
Peahcad Walkers boys viii De
doing their dead-level best to come
out on top this week is to aVen8e
the humjiating 20-l3 defeat handed
them last year by the Terrors.
To members Of the Deacon squad,
never has loss been more dis
couraging loss that suffered at the
hands of the Marylanders in 1888,
even including the 36-6 triumph by
the Tar Heels three weeks ago.
Press notices had blown Wake
Forest stock to the skies and the
writer's in Baltimore weren't ques-
tioning the outcOme-Wake Forest
was sure to Win-but what bother
ed them was how many points the
Deacons would score in so minutes.
But after it was all over and the
dust cleared from the field, the
score board was challled up 2O-13
in favor Of the Terrors.
Advance notices this week are
again placing Wake Forest in a
highly favored role, and judging
from the games already played by
the two teams to date rightfully
so. But you can wager your bottom
dollar that Captain Pate and Dea-
ION company will be an entirely
different outfit (although the faces
are practically the same) this Sat
urday night from the one that lost
10 Western Maryland last year.
It's true the Deacons are sup
posed to win, but its not going to
