Sends Out 25,000 | Football Letters to Alumni and Friends Twenty-five thousand letters to Northwestern alumni and other follow- ers of Purple football contests will be sent out from the office of Edward B. Davidson, cashier this week. These letters will give all informa- tion concerning tickets and will con- tain other data regarding the coming football season. A plat of the field showing the seating arrangement and all exits will also be placed in the let- ters. Among other things the letters state definitely that orders for tickets will not be considered until September 2. Prospective purchasers of the paste- hoards will gain nothing, according tp Mr. Davidson, by sending in their or- Aars ahead of time. All reauests for tirkets received before September 2, will be placed together and will be answered irrespective of the date they were received. Euthusiasm is running high among those in charep of ticket sales this sea- con. The rapid progress being made on the stadium coupled with the increased interest in the ponular fall sport nres- ages, according to those at the head of affairs, a season which will easily break all sales records. Numerous deoartures from former methods of handling sales are an- nounced by the university. Hine of the most important in the eyes of the offi- cials is the sale of 10.000 season tickets at $14 a piece. This will give a larae ~uwmber of fans an opportunity to oh- tain unusually cood tickets at each contest at a nominal cost. . These tick- ets will be good for six games. A great demand from manv auarters has alreadv heen made for these sea- son tickets. Thev are expected to be anickly sold to alumni who have been clase followers of Purple football teams for years. Numerons Bie Ten schools have adonted this season ticket plan with reports of great success. They assure the fans of fine seats §t every import- ant contest without the usual last min- ute effort to obtain tickets. The same seat will be used throughput the sea- son. A season football book will also he iesved this vear to students in the Chi- caon professional schools. This book will be only for the footahll season. In the past these students have been forced to take their chance on seats alone with the public. Despite the great increase in capa- citv of the stands over previous vears, officials alreadv believe that a sell out will be made on the more importazt contests. Little trouble is expected in filling the big stadium for all confer- ence games, while a taxed canacity is exnected for the Chicago and Notre Dame eames. Four thousand tempor- ary seats will be erected at the ends of the field for these two games. Give Bridee-Shower for Couple Soon to Be Wed Mr. and Mrs. J. G.
