Ann Arbor Excels
In Sale Of Stamps
Ann Arbor may well boast of the
success in all her undertakings of
bringing the war to a successful term-
ination. The Thrift stamp -sale bears
out this statement, and is one of the
many ways in which this city is tak-
ing the part of a much larger one.
Reports have been circulated
throughout the country of a record
sale of Thrift stamps in Chicago some
weeks ago, being greater relatively
than the sale in .New York, St. Louis,
and other large cities. The best week
in Chicago shows that the Thrift
stamps and War Savings stamps
amounted to almost $3,000,000, which
makes approximately nine cents to
the individual.
A similar comparison between the
$6,000 sale in Ann Arbor last week
with the 20,000 population shows that
the averag'e per individual in this city
is'more than three times that of the
amount in Chicago. According to Post-
master Horatio J. Abbott, in charge of
the drive here, the results are proving
to be very gratifying, and the figures
are even greater than is expected
from a city larger than Ann Arbor.
Among the persons who have help-
ed to establish this record are the
students of the University. Stamps
are being sold in almost every bus-
iness house and office on State street,
and in numerous parts of the cam-
pus buildings.
Union Play Holds
Rare Distinction
"Let's Go!" is to hold a unique place
among college operas.
It contains no drinking, smoking,
or athletic song, and the words, "col-
lege" and "knowledge" are not to be
found rhyming with each other. More
than half of the numbers have no
reference to Ann Arbor or the Univer-
sity.
Fred Lawton, '11, co-author of "Ko-
anzaland," has contributed a couple of
lyrics to this year's opera. A. J
Gornetzky, '19L, well known in cam-
pus musical circles; has composed
some melodies which are slated to
make a hit. The majority of the mus-
ic is the work of Earl V. Moors, '12.
William R. Mills, ex-'18, co-author
of the music for "All That Glitters,"
is helping in the orchestration of the
score for "Let's Go!" He is enrolled
in the ordnance course which is to
open within a few days.
RAILROAD CONTROL
TO OUTLIVE WAR
Washington, March 5.-Government
control and operation of railroads
probably will continue for 21 months
after the war.
A tentative agreement fixing that
timer limit was reached late today.
The railroad control bill now stands
as a compromise for the two years
proposed in the house bill and 18
months in the senate.
Complete adjustment of differences
in the measure is expected tomorrow
in view of intimations that President
Wilson would not object to the senate
provision which gives him power to
initiate rates, but retains authority for
their final review by the inter-state
commerce commission.

WHAT'S GOING ON
Universities Wreak
Athletic Relations
Chicago, March 5.-The break in
athletic relations between Northwest-
ern university and the University of
Minnesota was made known last night
when Minnesota called off a basket-
ball. game slated for March 18 at
Evanston. The break was the indirect
outcome of the blizzard of Jan. 11, it
was explained today. That night Min-
nesota's basketball team enroute to
Evanston for a game on Jan. 12, was
snowbound in Milwaukee and the
game was postponed. Differences as
to where and when the game should
be played led to the resultant rupture.
GERMANY SHORT OF MALE
LABOR, EMPLOYS WOMEN
New York, March 5.-Germany has
been extremely short of male labor
this winter, according to German
newspapers. The. latest official labor
statistics published show that there
were only 56 applicants for every one
hundred vacancies for male workmen.
The market for female laborers show-
ed for the first time since the early
days of the war an oversupply, 108
applicants being registered for every
hundred positions.'w
The Prussian state railroads alone
employ over one hundred thousand
women in various capacities from
section hand to railroad conductor.
Before the war there were barely ten
thousand women on the payrolls of the
state railways, employed largely as
scrubwomen although they were also
found in the telegraph department, as
clerks in various bureaus and some-
times as crossing tenders.
Minister von Breitenbach, head of
the Prussian Ministry of Ways and
Communications, said that if the war,
continued the number of women em-
ployed would increase even further in
order to release more men for the
colors. He stated in the Leipsic Illus-
trated Zeitung that the women labor-
ers had in general proved fairly satis-
factory, attributing this in part to the
fact that the use of trousers had been
made compulsory, and hinted that
skirted employees in the traffic depart-
ment and on the roadbed would have
been far less efficient.

WOMEN TO REPRESENT SEVEN
UNIVERSITIES IN DEBATE HERE
Reports from five of the seven uni-
versities entered in the interstate
Northern oratorical league mieet state
that two of these schools have chosen
women to represent them in the meet
held in Ann Arbor this month. The
Michigan finals which will be held at
8 o'clock Thursday evening in Univer-
sity hall will be the sixth final held.
The Northern oratorical league was
organized under the direction of Prof.
Thomas C. Trueblood of Michigan, who
is now in Australia giving addresses
the proceeds of which are given to the
Red Cross.
For.several years after the organi-
zation Michigan won first place but
for the last fev years of its existence
this school hasJ en unable to secure
a first. Last year Ralph M. Carson,
grad., was awarded second place in the
interstate meet. The Northern orator-
ical league is regarded in forensic cir-
cles as one of the strongest organiza-
tions of its kind in the country.

U. S. OFFICIALS SEIZE
GERMAN WIRELESS OUTFIT1
New York, March 5.-Wireless ap-
paratus, sufficiently powerful to com-
municate with Germany, which was in
the possession of Richard Tfund, at
one time manager of the German
plants at Sayville, New York, and
Tuckerton, N. 3., was seized yesterday
by federal officials it became known
today. The outfit was found in a room
\in a tower of an office building at 111
Broadway. Wireless was disconnect-
ed, it could have been set up in half
an hour, experts declared.
The raid was made by the U. S. mar-
shal, an army intelligence officer, an
army wireless expert, and other gov-
ernment agents.
Tfund is said to have made an ex-
"Planation concerning the presence of
the apparatus in his laboratory but
the nature of it has not been disclosed.
Dancing Friday and Saturday nights
Camp Custer, Mich., March 5.-The
report circulated by newspaper re-
porters that non-college men were do-
ing better work at the third officers'
training camp than college men, was
denied here in official circles today.
Statistics show that three-fou'rths of
the men training in the officers' camp
are University men.
Among the leading ten men in gen-
eral army efficiency in the field artil-
lery battery for future officers, four
are former students of the University
of Michigan. They are: C. C. Ash-
baugh, '16, Lee O. Case, ex-'18E, H. C.
L. Jackson, ex-'18, and P. C. Lovejoy,
'16.
