C. CAMILTON (United Press Staff Correspondent) NEW YORK, Jan. 8. The recent request of University of Michigan athletic officials for a place on the football schedule of Chicago univer sity doubtless will have a wonderful stimulating effect on western foot ball. It will be haid for Chicago to decide to drop one of the teams she is now meeting in annual games, but the natural rivalry that exists between the Chicago eleven and the Maize and Blue will overcome any objections that may arise. In the southern section of the West ern conference, Illinois and North western are now the favored schools for games with Chicago. They have been fixtures for years. Illinois, rep resenting the state wherein Chicago's big college i3 located, is the most natural rival Chicago could find. The Banie may be said cf Northwestern, for Northwestern is located just out side Chicago and is large enough und important neough to furnish plenty of opposition for the bigger school. Minnesota and Wisconsin have sent teams to Chicago for years, and their coming always has been considered among the important events of the year in Chicago athletics. To drop one or the other of these would mean the loss of a big game, but the addi tion of Michigan in place of one of them, not only would give Chicago a bigger contest, but would resurrect the ancient feud that existed between Minnesota and Michigan football elevens. That would be to the bene fit of the conference in general. Chicago's best chance appears to be in lopping off Purdue, which now has an annual place on the schedule. Pur due hasn't amounted to much as a football team in the big nine for sev eral years, and her appearance on Stagg field means little to Chicago football followers. There are certain teams in the Western Conference which are situated so as to be better rivals of Purdue than Chicago. Only the importance of Chicago has made the Purdue games profitable. A switch here probably would be of benefit to Purdue. However, both Wisconsin and Min nesota are large enough pnd are suf ficiently dignified to allow the Chi cago game to slip from the schedule. With a view to strengthening the western schedule in all parts it might be that this would be the step taken. Lane county Is planning on doing much winter road work. . SWEDISH LEGATION IN WAR. TIMES (United Press.) WASHINGTON, Jan. 3. Sweden's Washington business is manifold and many times troublesome. W. A. F. Ekengren, the Swedish minister, su pervises two institutions; the Swedish legation, and the Swedish office where the remnants of Austria-Hungary's business is transacted. Quiet Austrian clerks, three of them, keep books behind drawn blinds in the offices assigned to Austrian affnirs; a modest red brick building on Eigh teenth street, directly across the street frftm Secretary Lansing"s home. Swedish affairs are directed from an apartment house legation some blocks away, at 1820 N street. In addition to these offices, the Swedish government maintains an economic delegation in Washington at 1325 Eighteenth street, where Axel Robert Nordvall and Dr. H. Lundbohn have thc-ir headquarters. They are in America to secure foodstuffs for Sweden and have assured the Amer ican government that no foods ob tained here will be used for (iermnn export trade or to release other products for German use.
