...question next arises how any teams are to be supported from the general fund if subscriptions are abolished. As a matter of fact the total amount collected in subscriptions last year was $9,115.94. If this is subtracted from last year's surplus it leaves but $2,524.53, an amount hardly sufficient to pay the amount due on the Stadium, and at the same time to carry out the various necessary improvements, such as reclaiming the rest of Soldiers Field. It must be remembered, however, that last year the surplus was unusually small and that in average years a reserve...
...supply and only a few of the smaller applications could be filled besides those of the season-ticket holders. The management is hoping to get some extra tickets from Yale, in which case those applying for one and two tickets will be supplied first.

The other story in this number, "The Woman Who Wasn't," is no more nor less than it pretends...
...authorities are really in earnest and mean that speculation shall stop, the blacklist must be published. A vast amount of effort was expended this year in detecting speculation, and if it is not to be wasted, the results must be made known. The moral effect of merely depriving a man of his privileges is no longer sufficient. The only way in which those who contemplate using privileges for personal gain can be brought to their senses is by publicly disgracing those already caught...
