SPANISH INFLUENZA HAS
PRACTICALLY ABATED HERE

._

Only One New
Health Officer
Ann

Case Reported to
- 12 Others ii
Arbor

Spanish influenza is still absent
among the student body of the Uni-
versity. It is claimed there are no
real cases of the malady in the city.
Dr. J. A. Wessinger, health officer of
Ann Arbor, states that only one new
case of the common influenza, better
known as the grippe, has been report-
ed to him. This makes a total of 13
among the residents of Ann Arbor.
These cases are not serious and thus
far the spread has been kept fully un-
der control. The present conditions
continue to indicate and favor the be-
lief that the prevailing malady will
have spent its force before it reaches
this city.
The University health service re-
ports that the general health condi-
tions of the students are good this
year considering the circumstances.
Although cases of colds and grippe
have been numerous, they are by no
means regarded as dangerous. Of the
relatively small number of students
who came to the health service, 30 of
them had the ordinary "la grippe."
All such indispositions, the authori-
ties say, can be easily and quickly
checked providing unusual care and
action are taken by the people.
ARDEN, PLAYWRIGHT AND
ACTOR, DIES IN NEW YORK
New York, Oct. 3.-Edward Pendle-
ton Arden, actor and playwright, but
at times a cowboy, clerk, politician.
newspaper man, theatrical manager,
miner and brakeman, died of heart
failure here Wednesday, after re-
hearsing for a new play.
He was born in St. Louis 54 years
ago. He appeared in support of Maude
Adams in "L'Aiglon" and in the lead-'
ing role in "The Thief" and "The
Whirlwind." "The Eagle's Nest,"
"Barred Out" and "Raglan's Way"
were among his successful plays.

UNION DOING WAR CAMP
COMMUNITY SERVICE WORK
'Ihis year the Michigan Union is
playing a more important role than it
ever has before. Witt conidtions so
unsettled, confusion has likewise in-
cre- sed but students nevertheless con-
tiue to enjoy its services.
The Union serves as a clearing
house for the campus and social ac-
tivities of the city. In this cilpacity
it bears the same relationship be-
tween campus and community life that
the war camp community service bears
between cantonment and community
life.
An executive committee composed
of representatives from the social
agencies of the city, including the
lodges, city clubs, the city Y. M. C.
A., and the churches, will be organ-
ized in the near future.
Bulletins announcing various pro-
grams of amusement will be posted at
Army headquarters.
PRESIDENT OF OHIO STATE
UNIVERSITY IS IN ENGLAND
Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 3.-President
William O. Thompson of Ohio State
University, sent abroad by the United
States department of agirculture, ar-
rived in England the first part of
September. He is head of a commit-
tee organized to study the food con-
ditions of England, France and Italy..
The committee has for its main
purpose the gatherijag of general in-
formation regarding the food produc-
tion of these countries as concerns
the demand upon the United States,
and will render more effective the
work of the leaders of agriculture iua
the United States and bring home to
the farmers the need which they must
meet.
Under this work will come the study
of theuse of machinery and the as-
signment of the labor in farming op-
erations; the livestock situation, in-
cluding the depletion of herds and the
extent to which Europe will eventual-
ly call on us to replenish her herds,
and the seed problem, with the like-
lihood of obtaining seed supplies for
certain things from Europe.

LAW COURSES MODIFIED
BY WAR CONDITIONS
(Continued from Page One)
but attention will be given also to the
general principles and theory of the
subject. The course will include a
number of cases which have arisen
during the present war.
The course in emergency legislation
will cover the selective draft act, the
espionage act, the War Risk, or sold-
iers' insurance act, Trading with 0he
enemy act, and some six other impor-
tant statutes.
Should it be desired by the College
of Literature, Science and the Arts,
the courses in military law and emer-
gency law may also be given for the
benefit of students in the college.
The time remaining may be devoted
to purely professional law study. For
first year men in the S. A. T. C. this
time has been definitely allotted to the
courses in contracts, torts, property
and pleading.
For second and third year students
certain courses are required and oth-
ers may be elected as stated in the
schedule.
Law Courses Omitted
Certain courses in the regular cur-
riculum which in the present emer-
gency may be regarded as of minor
importance have been omitted, but
should any considerable number of
students desire to elect these sub-
jects, application may be made to the
Dean and the course will be offered
if conditions justify it.
Colonel Wigmore, of the Army Gen-
eral Staff, who is associated with the
Judge Advocate General, desires that
as many students as possible be pre-
pared in these courses in order to un-
dertake work in the Judge Advocate
General's department and other e pe-
cial branches of the service.

partment of the navy, has arrivedda;

by his father, Colonel Ambrose Pack
Shortly before sailing from Quebec,
about a month ago, Pack was trans-
ferred from the navy to the naval air
service.

GOVERNMENT'S BILLS SHOW

Millions Spent for Single Items on
Army Bill of Fare and Rolling
Kitchens

United States has spent for army use

sugar; $43,000,000 for bacon; $12,-
000,000 for beans; $9,000,000 for can-

them nearly $30,000,000.

and nearly as many in cantonments
here, and the United States and the
