ternoon, Princeton University is un-
der quarantine for an indefinite time.
No student will be allowed to leave the
town even for a week-end trip, and all
cases of sickness, however slight, will
receive immediate examination for
fear that the disease may spread
among the students and faculty.
Eric Brunnow was 17 years old. He
was the son of Dr. Rudolph E. Brun-
now, a member of the university staff.
He is thought to have contracted the
disease in New York, where he spent
a few days before the opening, of the
college year. He first reported ill to
the university physician last Wednes-
day. His illness was considered slight
at the time, but on Thursday he was
sent to the university infirmary, and
Saturday the disease was diagnosed as
infantile paralysis. Dr. Dinneman im-
mediately summoned Dr. George
Draper of the Rockefeller Institute
from New York, and anti-paralysis
serum was injected Saturday evening,
but without effect. Drunnow died in
the infirmary shortly after, noon.
Brunnow had been living since the
beginning of the college year in fresh-
man dormitory. He was removed,
however, to the infirmary as soon as
his case became suspicious, and, it is
hoped, before the contagion spread.
The quarantine at the university has
already gone into effect. No student
will be allowed to leave the town,
even when he has no regular engage-
ments with the university. Those
young men who are in the habit of
spending week-ends in New York and
elsewhere will be forced to remain in
Princeton for a few weeks at least.
Since Monday morning all students
who have even the most trivial illness
have been asked to report immediate-
ly to the university physician for ex-
amination and the closest care will
be observed to locate and segregate
all suspected cases immediately.
Just what effect this quarantine will
have on the engagements of visiting'
athletic teams from other colleges is
not known.
Princeton's first football game is set
for Oct. 21, at Princeton, with Lafay-
ette College. That game will possibly
be called off. The next game is with
Dartmouth, also at Princeton, on Oct.
28. Other games on the schedule are:
Bucknell, at Princeton, on Nov. 4, and
Harvard,'at Cambridge, Nov. 11. The'
Yale game is set for Nov. 13.

purchases carefully for adulterations
and short weights. Among the prod-
ucts recently brought to the notice of
the department are butter and pota-
toes.
The bulletin is as follows:
"We have discovered that cold stor-
age butter is being shipped into Mich-
igan from Chicago to several large
creameries. These creameries freshen
the butter by manipulation and are
able toaincorporate a certain amount
of extra water thereby increasing the
weight of the butter. Normal butter
should not contain to exceed 15% or
16% moisture. By this manipulation
process we have taken samples of but-
ter that show 25% moisture. Forty
cents a pound is too much to pay for
water and a final warning is given all
creameries that this practice must
cease or prosecutions will follow. We
also find that large numbers of oleo
and butter prints are an ounce shy on
the pound which is a practice which
must be stopped.
"The high price of potatoes has
brought out numerous violations of
the Short Weight law. The law re-
quires sixty pounds as the weight of
a legal bushel of potatoes. A peck
should weigh 15 pounds. We have
taken up samples that show only 12
to 13 pounds to the peck. Consumers
are asked to insist upon having full
weight when buying potatoes:
"In Southern Michigan potatoes are
being shipped in from the states of
Maine and New York and being sold
at the car door for $1.50 per bushel.
In parts of Northern Michigan pota-
toes are selling for less than $1 per
bushel. There is no reason why Mich-
igan potatoes should not be used in
Michigan.
"We would ask all co-operative po-
tato growers and sellers associations
to send to this department their name
and address. We would also like to
receive the names of all dealers and
other buyers who desire to buy po-
tatoes in car-load lots in northern
Michigan. In this way we can put pro-
,ducers and consumers in touch with
each other and thus furnish a market
for Michigan potatoes in Michigan."
U. OF M. CLUB HAS BULLETIN
Cleveland Alumni Organization Issues
Sheet of Events and Notices.
The University of Michigan club of
Cleveland is publishing a bulletin, as
occasion demands, in the form of a
news sheet, the first issue of which
appeared Ocober 9. Its slogan is
"Every member a reporter, send in
your item NOW."
The sheet is to embody the usual
notices, post card and otherwise,
which have heretofore been necessary
for the secretary to send out to the
members of the organization. By a
little more ambitious and compre-
hensive announcement it is possible to
attain the same practical result at lit-
tle or no extra cost and to include
other features which, it is thought,
will be appreciated.
The first bulletin contains announce-
ments of smokers, meetings and enter-
tainments given by the club, names of
officers installed at recent elections,
personal notices of doings of Cleve-
land Michigan men and the football
schedule for the season together with
comments on the work of the team.
Those who have charge of the pub-
lication are Charles T. Harris, '75, di-
rector of publicity; Guy M. Wells, '14,
managing editor; Virgil B. Guthrie,
'10, news editor; Elroy M. Avery, '71,
humor editor, and John R. Kistner,
'13L, auditor.

Local Factories Filmed Yesterday
Several local factories were filmed
for the municipal movie yesterday. To-
day a few scenes will be taken at the
Michigan Central depot, after which
only the M. A. C. game will remain to
be photographed.

BOOKS ON WAR NO
LONGER READ IN S. -A.
Buenos Ayres, Oct. 17.-The only
people in South America who are still
reading war literature are the English
residents. The statement is made on
the authority of the management of
Mitchell's Book store, an institution
which supplies a large share of the
reading matter consumed by foreigners
in Argentina and the entire South
American east coast.
Even the English are said to be
showing a declining interest in the
struggle and the bulk of what they
buy is light in character or consists
of impressionistic accounts of particu-
lar events. They are steering very
clear of heavier "stuff."
The rest of Mitchell's patrons, espe-
cially North Americans and other neu-
trals, are declared to display every in-
dication of being deathly sick of the
whole subject.
' The situation 'is pronounced in
marked contrast to the earlier days of
the war, when there was no demand,

for a long time, for books on any other
subject.
The rule does not hold as applied
to current fighting, the daily news-
papers having found that their clients
want to be kept strictly up-to-date on
all happenings. The proportion of war
news which they publish is consider-
ably larger than in the United States.
There is, in particular, a strong news
paper demand for official "communi-
ques," of which North American read-
ers, at latest accounts, seemed to be'
growing tired.
There - is more or less grumbling,
however, concerning the amount of
space devoted to the war by European
weekly and monthly publications, and
a consequent preference is being
shown, by those who can read them,
for those from the United States.

ENROLLMENT TOPS '15 TOTAL
5944 Students Register in University
Up to Saturday Night
Enrollment figures of the University
up to and including October 14 show
the total enrollment at that date to
have been 5,944, distributed as follows:
College of Literature; Science and the
Arts, 3,106; College of Engineering and
Architecture, 1,472; Medical school,
321; Law school, 375; College of
Pharmacy, 105; College of Dental
Surgery, 346; Graduate school, 266,
and Homeopathic Medical school, 52.
Enrollment figures were not taken
at this date last .year, but on Nov. 1,
1915, there were 5,821 students en
rolled in the University. Another count
is to be taken November 1 of this year,
wnen an accurate comparison may be
made. The present figures, however.
show a substantial gain over last year.
These figures do not include double
registration, car the Saturday classes
in Detroit and other cities, in which'
about 300 students are registered.
The total registration of the 1916
summer session was 1,793, as com-
pared with 1,678 in 1915. These fig-.
ures show a gain of 115 students for
this year's summer session.
The total registration for the school
year of 1915-1916, including the sum-
mer session, was 7,214. While it is
impossible to tell accurately what the
enrollment will be this year, present
indications point to about a 7,500 total,
a gain of almost 300.
