Football Tickets Are Counterfeit Proof The counterfeit ticket problem which for years has harassed ticket man- agers of large sporting events has been solved by the football authorities at Northwestern university. The foot- ball tickets to be used at the uni- versity this fall have been made coun- terfeit proof.

When the gate man tears off the stub he can tell at a glance by the medium of the two color scheme whether the ticket is counterfeit. Hand drawings of Dyche stadium and McKinlock campus appear on the face of the ticket, making an unusually attractive design. The pasteboards are already being printed and will soon be in the mail to early purchas- ers of season tickets. Milton J.
