Packers Deny That They Have Over-

This Year
New York, Oct. 21. - The federal
grand jury today, as a result of a sec-
ret investigation conducted by the at-
torney general's office, returned an in-
dictment against Armour & company,
Chicago packers, and against the of-
ficers of the company individually,
charging them with profiteering in
violation of the Lever act.
The indictment contains 137 counts,
each of which contains a sale of lamb
at an alleged unlawful and unreason-
ably rate. During April, May Sind
June, the meat. it is charged, cost
Armour & company $18.46 per 100
pounds; that the lwest it was sold
for was $23, and the highest $35, all
the sales being made to customers in
New York.
The average net profit to the com-
pany was placed at $6.61 per 100
pounds.
The indictment was reported to Fed-
eral, Judge Hand.
OFFICIALS DENY REPORT
Chicago, Oct. 21.-Declaring that,
"with our lamb business as a whole
shoving a loss it seems a rather bit-
ter joke to indict us for making too
much money," officials of Armour &
company said in a statement, com-
menting on the federal indictments
returned in New York.
"We are at a loss," the statement
said, "to understand these indict-
ments. The reasonableness of profits
cannot be judged by a consideration
of a few transactions. We have made
money through the sale of New Zea-
land lambs, but we did not make
enough on them to offset the losses
we sustained in the sale of domestic
lambs, and with our lamb business as
a whole showing a loss, it seems rath-
er a bitter joke to indict us for mak-
ing too much money."

'ENSIAN TO WAGE
SALES CAMPAIGN
With the aim that every student on
the campus have a year book, the
Michiganensian will launch its sub-
scription campaign Nov. 1. This cam-
paign will last but five days and no
subscriptions will be taken after
Nov. 5.
"We are going to put out a larger
book than has been attempted in the
past," stated Boyd Logan, '21, busi-
ness manager of the Michiganensian.
"There is to be more professional art
work and the space devoted to ath-
letics has been greatly increased; in
short, we are trying to make this the
biggest and best book.
"Illinois with a smaller enrollment
than our school has a sale of more
than 5,000 annuals. Michigan with
her larger student body should far
exceed this mark. It's up to the
students. The more students who
subscribe,the better year book we can
put out." The better the year book,
the moreinfluence the University will
have in the schools to which the Mich-
iganensian is sent, Logan declared.

CO-OPERATION IN
SOCITIES LACKING
Fraternity, Sorority Members Not Res.
ponding to Chimes' Appeal
To be more correct in its statement
about University women not signing
up as rapidly as they should for the
Chimes, the business staff of that pub-
lication stated that the independent
women have taken as many subscrip-
tions in ratio as the men. The soror-
ity women have not responded in the
manner that they should, according
to the Chimes men.
The answers to the letters that were
sent out to the fraternities, stating the
number of men from each house sub-
scribing have not come in as fast as
they should.
If the president of each house would
tend to this as soon as possible, it
would facilitate matters in the office,
the men there state.
DAILY TO PUBLISH
FOOTBALL EXTRA
With the determination to
break all records for the print-
ing of an extra, a special Daily
staff will issue the Illinois foot-
ball extra, which will be on sale
at the close of the game Satur-
day afternoon.
The extra will contain a run-
ning story of the game, a review
of the situation in the Confer-
ence, photographs of the Illin-
ois captain, Depler, Steketee,
Coach Pratt, and a group pic-
ture, the first to be released, of
the Michigan eleven.
In addition to these features
there will also be stories on
basketball, and a digest of the
football situation between Mich-
igan and Illinois sinee their first
game in 1898.
REMT TOO LATE1
200 LOSE SEATS
Tardy Coupons Received for Illinois
Game Forec Students to
Stand
SLIPS FOB CHICAGO CONTEST
ASKED FOR BEFORE FRIDAY
More than 200 students will be fore-
ed to stand up during the Illinois
game because they failed to send in
their coupons with applications for re-
served seats before the specified time,
6 o'clock Friday evening, Oct. 15.
Some of the orders received Satur-
day were filled as long as the tickets
lasted, however.
Approximately 60 per cent of the
23,000 seats in the stands are reserved
for students, and they are held until
all student applications, received on
time, are filled. This year the stu-
dent tickets were sorted out for mail-
ing Sunday, Oct. 17.
Late Applications Returned
Applications which were received
late were returned to the students
with a notice that the coupon would
entitle them to standing room on the
inclined platform at the west end of
the field.
"We regret that it was necessary to
do this," said P. G. Bartelme, athletic
director, in commenting on the late
applicants, "but we had thousands of
applications from alumni which we
could not hold up until the last mo-
ment to see how many more student
applications would straggle in. It the
students would only comply with the
instructions on the back of the blanks
there would be no difficulty whatever.
Students Given Attention
Aplications are filled in the order
of classes, except in the case of
graduatesstudents andstudents en-
tering the University with advanced
credit, who are ranked in accordance
with the number of years they have
spent here. When students of dif-
ferent classes sit together, the applic-
ation will be filled in the order of
the lowest class.
Very few Conference universities
extend as much consideration to stu-
dents in the seating arrangements of
the big games as Michigan does, ac-
cording to information obtainable at
the athletic office. In most cases the
best seats are reserved for outside
sale.
Want Chicago Blanks Early
Mr. Bartelme requests that the stu-
dents mail their coupons and blanks
for the Chicago game early enough to
insure their reaching the athletic of-
fice before 6 o'clock Thursday eve-
ning, Nov. 4.

Illinois game tomorrow, the situation
