THE WOLVERINES MUST PAY UP

BUTCHER SUES THEM FOR BILL OF 4$40

Boys Claim Steward Collected Money to Pay All Their Bills And They Are Not Responsible

Pay up or miss the family Christmas tree! Those are the alternatives staring the University Wolverine club in the face, for they were this morning served with summons returnable in Justice Gibson's court Monday, Dec. 21. A local butcher has a bill against the organization for $40, and A. J. Sawyer, jr., the meat man's counsel, adopted the above plan to incline the students toward a settlement.

The Wolverines say that they paid their steward enough to square up all bills and. they have refused to settle with the disgruntled butcher. On account of the difficulty there is deep and bitter dissension within the organization, in which the steward is the principal figure.

Unless Attorney Sawyer agrees to set the case over, as he will not do, he says, it is either settle or break into their vacation for the Wolverines.

The organization is a co-operative affair, the members paying a certain amount to the steward. who defrays the joint expenses. They were concerned last year in publishing the Wolverine magazine, a student publication, which was this year combined with the Ann Arbor Labor Union Record.
