Snow
Forecast
Tonight

One OF the earliest snowfalls on
Detroit weather records was pre-
dicted for tonight on the heels Of
a sharp temperature drop.
The possibility of a decline TO
freezing was contained in the
days forecast. The mercury will
be at the low of the season, ii
was said. In the most severe pre-
vious drop the thermometer hit
81 degrees.
Small hope for suspicious
weather for football games was
held in early reports. Cold, inter-
mittent showers were expected
throughout the day.
Snow tonight would give De-
troit an experience already re-
corded in upstate cities. Lansing
was the latest point 10 be touched
with a light snowfall last night.

Since the usual procedure in pass

copy which he can study and TO
have the ordinance read three times
before passage, aldermen thought
there was an effort at too much
speed Monday evening. They or
dered the proposal placed on frs,
reading and plan to study proyi-
sions before the council convenes

Main points in Ann Arbor's milk

amended in 1884 and 1898, include
the requirement that all milk and
