~ LABOR rs PLENTIFUL
Two Score Of Unskilled Workmen Can
Be Secured in a Minute

Labor is plentiful in Minneapolis at
present, particularly Of the class known
as common labor. Two score Of men can
be secured in a minute at the state
employment bureau in the courthouse,
as there are that number about the
Office all the time waiting for some
thing to turn up. Most Of the men are
good strong fellows straight from the
harvest fields or railway work. There
is little or no skilled labor available,
but plenty of men who are willing to
go out, and do a hard days work.
Female help Is also plentiful, not
domestics, but dayworkers: Five or
six Of these can be secured in a few
moments, FOR like the men, there are
that many at the Office all the time
awaiting patiently for call to come.
Day workers were in great demand last
month and the labor bureau was unable
to fill all the applications, but the house
cleaning season is over and the need for
day-workers has almost ceased.

STUDENTS PUNISHED
Example Is Made Of Alleged scaIpers Oh
+ ~ Football Tickets.

Acting on evidence tending to show
that Charles A. Frantz and DuWayne
Davey students of the University Of Min
nesota, were guilty Of ''scalping'' football
tickets, the faculty council has recon-
mended the suspension Of the former for
a year and the denial of registration to
the latter. The evidence was introduced
by students who had investigated the
scalping prior to the Wisconsin football
game. 81
F'rantz is a student in the law depart
ment. The faculty Of that department
has not yet acted upon the recommends
ton Davey is not officially a student,
tho he has been studying in the engineer
ing department. The Recommendation for
denial Of registration in his case has not
been acted upon.
With this example set and the ruling
mad by the faculty council that scalping
shall be regarded as an offense against
the university it is believed that there
will be little trouble Of this sort next sea-
