A group of young men eating together at tables in a low-ceiling room with school flags on the walls. The young men were known as the "Co-op Boys," a group of 21 students who moved into a little brown house on Mallett Street in Chapel Hill in October of 1941. World War II, rising prices, and subsequent turning over of University dormitories to navy cadets made co-ops first desirable, then necessary. This same image is printed on page 14 of the March, 1942 issue of CAROLINA MAGAZINE, part of a story titled "Adventure in Living: Cooperatives Are an Answer." The individuals are not identified.
