PONCHO SHORTAGE
FELT BY S. A. T. C.
No longer can the self-sacrificing
civilian grumble that the Army gets
all the pleasures, and sometimes ne-
cessities, which are denied him. Many
a student who sold that old rain
coat to "Smuck" or some other of his
following now staggers about the
campus under the weight of a rain
soaked overcoat, and envies the sold-
ier his rain coat. Now things are dif-
ferent.
The S. A. T. C. man must make his
"overcoat, O. D., one (1)" serve as a
protection from both cold and rain, for
no longer are ponchos, the "buck's"
rain coat, obtainable. All shipments
of ponchos are sent overseas, and Ann
Arbor must suffer with the rest of the
camps. Fortunately there is no
shortage of overcoats and the S. A.
T. C. possesses just a sufficient num-
ber of ponchos to keep the members
of the guard dry in rainy weather.
Condemned Belgians Pardoned
Amsterdam, Oct. 24.-According to
a telegram from Brussels, the govern-
or general of Belgium has pardoned
all Belgians and neutrals in Belgium
and Germany who were condemned
by military tribunals. This pardon
does not include those convicted of
common crime.

MA9JOR GOMBER[ SPENDS
FEW DAYS IN ANN ARBOR
FORMER FA('ULTY MEMBER NOW
STATIONED I1 PLANT AT
CAPITOL
Major Moses Gomberg, formerly a
member of the faculty in the chem-
istry department of the University,
now of the ordnance department in
Washington, D. C., is spending a few
days in Ann Arbor.
Major Gomberg left here the early
part of last summer and immediately
was given an important appointment
in one of the largest government lab-
oratories in Washington. He has re-
cently been promoted to the rank of
major in the ordnance department. He
is now inspector of explosives and his
wlork consists of visiting the munition
plants to inspect the manufacture of
shells and explosives.
His territory covers all of the
northeastern part of the United States.
He does not travel west of Chicago
or in any of the southern states. Very
little of his time is spent in his office
at Washington. The major was lately
sent to Lansing, and not having been
home since his appointment in Wash-
ington, he chose this opportunity to
visit here. Before going to Washing-,
ton, he worked on mustard gas pro-
duction in the University laboratory.
His departure from the University was
rather unexpected and deeply regret-
ted.
Daily want ads bring results.

TEUTONS FLOOD BiELG~IUM

(Continued from Page One)
out the entire triangle from Slavigny
to Montcornet. They have taken all the
railroad lines in this region. The
Germans are strongly counter attack-
-ing, but the French have warded off
their efforts to regain the lost terri-
tory, and in turn have gained ground
south of Montcornet, one of the prin-
ciple railway junctions in this re-
gion.
North of Grandpre and north of
Verdun, in the sector lying between
the Meuse river and north of the
Argonne forest, the Americans have
cut more deeply into the enemy's line,
despite the continued extremely heavy
use of machine guns and artillery by+
the Germans. American aviators are
dropping bombs behind the enemy
lines, while enemy airm.a are return-
ing the compliment by bombing towns
inside the .American front.
20 MORE MEN NEEDED TO FILL
QUOTA OF NAVAL UNIT HERE
Michigan students fray still enlist
in the S. N. T. C. as there is an open-
ing for 20 men. Anybody is eligible
except members of some other mili-
tary or naval reserve, but students of
any college not in some reserve, may
enlist regardless of college. There has
been an extension of time to Oct. 30,
because of the fact that men in the re-
serve are not eligible as was formerly
assumed. The present membership in
the S. N. T. C. numbers 480, 20 more
being needed to fill the Michigan
quota.

MILITARY COUNCIL TO CIVE
LAW OF ARMISTICE TO HUN
(Continued from Page One)
will define the conditions under which
Germany may secure relief from the
incessant hammering of the victori-
ous Allied and American armies.
No one here today would undertake
to forecast the probable time of a
decision on Germany's plea. It is
known, however, that the supreme
war council already has given the
matter the most earnest considera-
tion.
General approval of the President's

reply to Germany, and of his action in
transmitting Germany's request to the
Allied governments, was voiced here
today in official and diplomatic circles.
