In a game filled with errors, the base
ball coaching class won the flirt irame
of the Twilight baseball league and
stopped out Into first place by de
feating the representatives of The
Summer Xebraskan, 9 to 4. Backed
by poor support Lefty Williams de
serves credit for holding the point
tally down as low as it was.
The newspaper team looked good
the first inning. Not a baseball class
man reached first and only three of
them got hold of n bat. When the Xe
braskan men got to bat, Tonkinson
started a three run scoring offense
with a two base hit Patton brought
Tonkinson in and was in turn snored
by a hit by Williams. A poor fielding
chance enabled Waite to hug second
and Williams to score. Waite was
called out on third when he took a
long loadoff. r
That Is when the baseball class
started things. Making easy hits
which were fumbled by the Xebraskan
representatives the baseball men tal
lied five runs. Rosen brought in the
first followed closely by Johnson, Max
well, Dan and Dial.
The Xebraskan failed to score In
its half of the third while the base
ball class sent Colson and Rosen
across for counters. Colson's tally
was the result of a long drive to cen
ter field which was muffed and rolled
far enough back to allow him to circle
the plates before its return to the
fit-Id.
Again the Xebraskan men failed to
score and the baseball class tallied two
runs, one by Lewis and another by
Iial. In the first of the fifth Lee
crossed the plate on a muffed infield
drive. It looked like a rally but
Matxke was called out at first and the
pame was over.
The score by Innings:
Baseball class 0 5 2 2 09
Summer Xebrakan 3 0 0 0 14

College Women Shun Marriage
The following is taken from The
Michigan Daily, official paper of tho
University of Michigan. Its scope is
general of college graduates and pro
vides an extremely interesting study.
It also proves conclusively the false
ness of the statement that women go
to college "just to catch a man."
Why do college graduates persist In
shunning marriage, when by so doinj
they impede the development of racial
quality? The answers seem to be
conditioned upon human whims and
shortsightedness, but convicting cvi
dnco in the form of reliable statistics
prove that such a condition exists.
Prof. A. Franklin Shull, of the zoo
logy department has procured from
various official sources, data which
demonstrates the timorous, anatagonis
tic, or indifferent attitude which col
lege people take toward assuming tho
marital vows. Other figures which fol
low are credited to a work on Applied
Rugcnics, by Poptnoe and Johnson.
The percentage of marriages over
the entire country has increased
fttcadily during the last two decades
Subsequently the birth rate has in
creased. It has also been noted that
people marry at earlier ages than they
did twenty years ago. To the casual
observer this may seem satisfactory,
:but a close scrutiny discloses an
Alarming absence of marriages and
pirths among the people whom we
may assume to be superior to the
average.
Whether college grucuales may bo
classed as superior individuals might
be disputed, but in the following data
they have been held up as such.
Wellesley College Figures
Let us first glance at the record of
Wellesley College. The percentage of
all students who marry within ten
years after graduation is 35 per cen.
Forty-nine per cent of the graduates
marry within 20 years.
At Mount Holyoke college, the old
est in the country of institutions for
the higher education of women, t.ie
number of graduates marrying, do
creased from S5.4 per cent to 60 per
cent, over a period of 50 years. Those
who decided to remain sinslo in
creased from 14.6 per cent to ."0 per
cent during the same period.
Bryn Mawr's figures show only 165
out of 376 graduates, from the senior
classes of 1SS8 to 1900 inclusive, who

in the art gallery. The gallery is
collegiate rank courses leading to de-Kopen daily from nine to five and vis-
tors are welcome. There is no admis
sion for this display.
Another forward stride leading to
the construction of the University of
Nebraska memorial stadium will be
made today when members of the
alumni association stadium commit
tee and a group of architects will meet
to work out more definite plans toward
tin? structure.
Plans are already well under way,
many of them having been completed.
C. U. Chowins, general superintendent
of the university before his deathjtast
week, did much of the preliminary
work on the stadium plans.
Kllery Davis and John Latenser,
well known architects of Lincoln, will
have charge of the designing for the
stadium. Ellery Davis' work in cou
nt ction with the new state capitol
will long bo remembered. He was
given mention as the leading architect
cf Nebraska and his design was re
garded as one of the three or four
best submitted by the best architects
in the country. Latenser's work has
also been attracting much attntion
from leading American builders.
The office of the superintendent of
grounds and buildings of the univer
sity will have charge of drawing up
the plans. Their services are beinf
donated to the stadium committee.
Regents Buy Ground
The board of regents has agrwd to
purchase the additional ground which
will be needed tor the new structure
providing the money for the actual
construction of the stadium is pro
vided by student, alumni and general
subscription.
Actual construction of the new
stadium will not start until after the
completion of the 1922 football sea
son. This decision was arrived at
when it was learned that it would b
impossible to-sufficiently complete the
new structure so as to have a proper
place to play the fall games.
Some trouble is being experienced
in regard to the track field. Tearinr
up of the present field will leave the
track squad without a place to train.
Just what steps will be taken in this
regard remains to be seen but at pres
ent plans call for the stadium con
struction to start late this fall.
It has been suggested that the Lin
coln high school track might be se
cured for the varsity tracksters. The
high school has used the university
field for football purposes for year';
and it is probable that a satisfactory
agreement might be reached between
the two institutions in regard to a
joint use of the new Lincoln high
track. The Cornhuskers would be
under a slight handicap but use of
that field would enable plans for the
new stadium to proceed more rapidly
than otherwise would be possible.
