low. and "a day Off" was given In
which the student was expected to
journey halfway home. meeting al
this point his parent or brother, who
brought with him second load Of the

Monday so as to allow the under
graduate the benefit Of the preceding
Saturday. In times past the journeys
wOulNs often extend to fifty or sixty
miles. The modern student goes home
for "Meal Monday" but he travels
with a week end ticket and has no

Norfolk May Lose Baseball Team.

The Norfolk baseball team will be
disbanded unless attendance at the
games shows marked increase.
This is the statement of the man.
agement discouraged with playing a
losing game. Attendance at the games
has been steadily falling off, the crowd
at yesterdays exhibition numbering
only about fifty.
Sundays game, though one of the
best of the season, saw but handful
of fans on the bleachers, and yester-
days was worse yet.
Norfolk Team a Good One, Too.
It can not be claimed that poor base
ball is the cause for lack of patronage
at the games, for the Norfolk team is
snappy bunch of seasoned experts
and they're putting up as consistent a
game as any team in the state. Bril-.
| liant baseball marks many of the dia'
mond contests that are being pulled off
at the driving park. So it is not for
lack of the real article that the fans
refuse to turn out.
| 1t is said that some of even yester
days crowd were from Stanton and
other outside towns.
Stanton Coming Thursday.
The next local game will be played
on Thursday afternoon, when Stanton
comes for the afternoon. Stanton was
the first team to beat Norfolk this
season, and Norfolk has one back al
them, so that it ought to be thrilling
demonstration.
And unless this game, as others If
the future, are supported as they
ought to be, Norfolk will be minus 6
