HOW TO TELL WHETHER
T IS RIGHT SIDE U P
"THANK YOU" MASKS ARE NOW
BEING MADE AT ANGELL
HOUSE
Masks with "Thank You" printed
in the upper right hand corner are
from Angell house. These two words
enable the wearer always to cover his
mouth with the same side of the
mask.
It is desired that every S. A. T. C.
man have a mask but not all can have
them unless the girls are willing to
make them.
Yesterday 17 University women
helped to make masks. A conservative
estimate records between 300 and 400
finished already and the entire 4,000
are expected to be completed in a few
days. For the last two days the An-
gell house has been open until 10
o'clock in the evening. The new quota
of Red. Cross supplies is being held
up until the need for masks is satis-
fied.
Reserve Men to Go Into Barracks Soon
The engineering and medical re-
serve men are to move into barracks
soon. The exact time is not as yet
definitely known,.
Mechanics Quartered in Union
Seven hundred army cots have been,
stored in the Union building. It is,
intended that some of. the new me-,
chanics will be quartered there. For
the present Co. 9 has its quarters,

NEW PLANS MADE
FOR CONFERENCE
New plans are being made for the
Vocational Conference this year. Last
year it was found that few girls had
time to go to so many lectures in
succession. This year there will be
about three meetings a quarter. The
first quarter will begin next month
and three speakers have been secured
to talk on "Opportunities for Women
in Nurses Training Schools.", The
second meeting is on "Industrial
Openings," the third on "Social Serv-
ice" and the last on "Opportunities in
Law."
The. attendance at the meetings was
not all that was expected last year
and it is hoped with' the new plans
for the conference that the Univer-
sity women will take advantage of the
talks and personal conferences. Never
'before have women played such an
important role in business life and it
ought to be the desire of every girl
to be acquainted with the opportuni-
ties in 'her sphere.
NAVAL SHIPYARD AND DRYDOCK
BUILT AT SAN RANIERI, ITALY
Messina, Sicily,- Oct. 16.-The com-
munal council and the chamber of
commerce have approved the agree-
ment for the use of the drydock and
for erecting a naval shipyard. Both
will be taken up by a stock company
organized and promoted by Giuseppe
Orlando of the Leghorn shipyards.
The naval shipyard will be erected
on the San Ranieri shore and will
have four sets of stocks. Three will
face the strait and one the harbor.
Signor Orlando has undertaken, on
behalf of the society, to lay the keel
of the first steamship within a year
from the signing of the agreement.
The present drydock will be 4evot-
ed to making repairs and expediting
work of exceptional importance.
The company agreed to present the
government within six months a tech-
nical and financial plan, similar to
the one recently adopted for Na-
ples, to build a new drydock to ac-a
commodate the largest ships afloat.

DETROIT TO FINISH
SENATORIAL
RACE

New York, Oct. 16.-Allen A. Tem-
pleton, Frank W. Blair, and Thomas
P. Philips, chief campaigners for
Truman H. Newberry U. S. N. R.,
Republican candidate for United
States senator from Michigan, were
freed today from an enforced decision
here in a federal investigation of the
primary campaign of last August.
The three men were momentarily re-
manded to the custody of the United
States marshal, under which they had
escaped confinement in jail last Fri-
day for refusal to answer questions
before the grand jury was dismiss-
ed. However, Judge Clayton accept-
ing their individual responsibilities
to the extent of $5,000 to appear in
court when summoned without the
formality of bail, released the de-
fendants for 20 days. Meantime their
counsel, Martin W. Littieton, will take
the case on appeal to the United
States Supreme Court.
Will Return to Direct Campaign
Templeton, Blair, and Philips, chair-
man, treasurer, and publicity director,
respectively, of the Newberry commit-
tee, announced that they would re-
turn at once to Detroit to direct the
campaign of their candidate against
Henry Ford, the Democratic nominee.
Detroit, Oct. 16.-When the voters
of Michigan go to the polls in the
November election to decide the sen-
atorial contest, they will bring to a
climax a situation almost unparalleled
in Michigan political history.
Henry Ford, choice of President
Wilson, and carrying the endorsement
of the Democratic organization de-
spite his announced intention of hold-
ing himself free from all party obli-
gations, will have as his Republican
opponent, Truman H. Newberry, com-
xnander of the third naval district,
and secretary of the navy, iq the sec-
ond Roosevelt cabinet.
slid dot 'Work folr Nomination
Mr. Ford declined to make any ef-
fort to win nomination at the primary,
while Commander Newberry likewise
took no personal part in the intensive
drive in his behalf. Both maintained
the same attitude after the primary
had returned Newberry the victor on
the Republican ticket and nominated
Ford on the Democratic.
Interest centered on the senatorial
contest from the moment Ford an-
nounced that at President Wilson's

The great wedge of the Allies in
Flanders is being gradually extend-
ed eastward all along the front of at-
tack. Thourout, at the head of the
railway leading to Bruges, and nu-
merous villages to the south have
been taken, while Courtvai, the junc-
tion point of the railway to Ghent, is
almost entirely surrounded. Large
numbers of prisoners and many ad-
ditional guns have been captured.
British Nearing Lille
To the south of this region the Eng-
lish continue successfully their ma-

ject the capture of Douai and Lille.
The British are within two and one-

DR. JOHN A. WESSINGER,
City Health Officer.
Dr. Wessinger explained that this
order does not include the public
schools or University classes.
Predicts Course of Epidemic
in r. Wessinger's opinion the epi-
demic will remain the same for about
four or five days, Although the num-
ber of influenza cases will decrease
and the nupiber of cases of pneumo-
nia will increase. After that time he
looks for a great failing off in the
total number of cases.
Despite the fived eaths among S. A.
T. C. men, army authorities are op-
timistic and believe they have the
epidemic under control. Only six new
cases of influenza and four of pneu-
monia were discovered yesterday. A
few rien who were convalescing had
relapses. Twenty-nine convalescents
were discharged from the hospitals
yesterday and will be assigned to
light duties today. Sergeant-Major
Fischer announced that about 50 more
men who have recovered from the dis-
ease will be discharged from the con-
valescent infirmaries and hospitals
today.
He also announced that S. A. T. C.
men will not be compelled to wear
the face masks while in their bar-
racks.

request he would accept the nomina-
tion if tendered him. He did not spe-
cify whether he would make the race
as a Democrat or a Republican, and
his name went on both ballots at the
primary.
Both Parties Make Charges
Both candidates came in for severe
griticism at the party conventions of
their opponents. The democrats met
first and party leaders scored the ex-
penditure of slightly more than $176,2
000 by Newberry's supporters in the
primary. Republicans meeti g the fol-
lowing day countered with the charge
that Ford opposed war and was an
unbeliever in the American soldier.
Next in interest to the senatorial
fight is a proposed constitutional
amendment extending suffrage to
women. The amendment was endors-
ed by both Republican and Demo-
cratic conventions and an active
campaign has been conducted in its
support,
Republicans are confident they will
re-elect the entire state ticket, head-
ed by Governor Albert E. Sleeper. The
Democrats, however, have a full slate
in the field, and are determined to
make a strong fight for every office.
Their candidate for governor is John
W. Bailey.
