Arrangements for conducting
the 1912 hunting program have

TO gaze into the crystal ball and
figure out what's going to happen
IN Western Conference football
circles this year.
Never before in the half-century
of its existence has the Big Tens
nine football teams faced a season
g hectic as the one coming up.
Loss of key-men during the sea-
son, unusually heavy schedules,
lack of transportation. and prac-
tice facilities-there are just few
of the items that have to be con-
sidered, along with the prowess OF
the halfbacks and the staunchness
Of the lines.

Disregarding unknown quaint
ties, the conference teams can be
divided into three groups-those
that have il, those that may have
Il and those that don't. Here's
how they look to us after watch
ing 'em all:
The haves-Minnesota, Michi-

The may haves-Wisco In.
Northwestern, Ohio.
The have nots-Purdue, Iowa,

Excellent chance OF winning the
conference title because OF its
schedule and Bill Hillenbrand. The
HOLSTERS have just four conference
games, Ohio, Iowa. Minnesota and
Purdue. A sweep through this
quartet, which Is far from impos-
sible, would give Indiana its first
championship in history.
GoPHERs PACK POWER
On paper. however. Minnesota
still packs the power. The Co
pliers are the team 10 beat. Hi
nois, Michigan. Northwestern, In
diana, Iowa and Wisconsin are the
teams that'll try to do IL. One may
succeed. but il probably won't
keep the Gophers from a title. The
odds are high that no team will go
through indicated in conference
competition, which makes the
chances of club so much the
greater on a percentage basis IL II
plays six games.
After viewing the conference
schedule and trying to pick the
winner, we can only mutter:
Minnesota IL the team they'll
have to beat. Indiana may breeze
through its four games. Wiscon-
sin IL n great dark horse North

plenty tough. Purdue can't be
discounted. Michigan has Its

 Members of the institute who manufacture both cigars and other tobacco products point out that pipe and cigarete smokers have become accustomed to price variations, are quick to "blame the taxes" then accept the new price.

 Cigars, however, with their wide spread hl price, from one-centers to custom. made imports retailing at over 60 cents, have been maintained on Q rigid price structure since the depth of the depression, the cigar institute emphasizes. Tn levying the new tax the federal government has increased the number of It's own self determined classiflcations from five to seven for revenue purposes. The oPA promises revlsions as soon as experience shows where they are necessary.
 Therefore, manufacturers today are asking the public to be patient for short time longer while the industry is making the adjustments which this "shake-down cruise" proves are necessary to guarantee . completely satisfactory perform ance under wartime conditions.
