Wage Hike Works for Guard
The $10 a month raise granted state prison and reformatory guards last summer has had its “hoped for” effect of keeping them from quitting for defense jobs, Warden Alfred Dowd of the State Prison said today. He said that only a very few prison guards had quit since the raise went into effect. He added also that many of the guards were holding onto their jobs in the face of the higher pay in defense industries because of the security which tHey expebt from the merit system which is to go into effect in the state institutions within the

BAN ON GRID TICKETS
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8 (U. P.). —The American Federation of Labor today asked the War Depart-
ment to investigate the refusal of University of Washington officials at Seattle to sell to the teamsters’ union football tickets: which the untiion intended to distribute to service men. President William Green of the Federation described the attitude of the university = “incomprehensible, unless it is based on anti-union prejudice.” . Green said that the teamster union locals had planned to. buy 3500 tickets to each of the University of Washington’s football games and give them to commanders of Army camps in the vicinity for free distribution of soldiers. He said that the university set aside that number of tickets for sale to service men, but refused to sell them to the n. “1 don’t see how {he officials of this university can justify their refusal to permit Army draftees to attend these football games free of chargé,” Mr. Green said. “It would be a shame if the prejudicés of a few reactionary professors would re= sult in depriving the boys called to serve the nation of a chance of enjoying a football game.”

Harry E. Elder, registrar, expects betweln 600 and 700 freshmen. Many of them are expected to take advantage of the three-year gradua-

More than half the students are expected to earn all or part of their expenses during this year, and Prof. A. C. Payne, director of Indiang State's N. Y.
