Charlottesville. Va, October 10
Hedley McNeer Bowen. of Freeman. w.
Va, the sturdy captain OF the varsity
football team at the University OF Vir-
ginia. surprised his friends yesterday
by eloring to Washington with Miss
Mary Irvine Blonton. formerly OF the
university. but more recently of Lex
ington. where she was residing with
her mother. Mrs. Sallie Blanton. Miss
Blanton came to Charlottesville on
Monday to visit her sister Miss Eliza
beth Blanton. and yesterday afternoon
was Joined at Main Street Station by
Mr.. Bowen. They took the local train
for Gordonsville, and there awaited
Ho. 4. the fast train to Washington
The young couple was accompanied to
the capital city by Mr.. Bowen's friend
and fraternity mate. John Dibert, of
Hollidaysburg, Pa, and they were
married at o'clock in the Presby-
terian Church, of which the Rev. Wal
lace Radcliffe is pastor.
Mr.. Bowen was taking special
course in the law school. and had been
a student in the university for the
past three sessions. He WAS one of
tho most popular men in college, hav-
ing been prominent in athletic social
and fraternity circles. He played at
end on the varsity football team for
one of the best punters in the South.
Following close upon the announces
ment of the marriage of "red" Bowen,
captain of the Virginia football eleven
came the news to-day that he had re-
signed from college. and that a new
leader for the team would have to be
chosen. The election OF his successor

quite blow to the football squad, as

an experienced punter. Bowen has been
doing all the kicking for the past
three seasons. and no attention has
been given to developing other play

The most interesting incident of cir

to avail themselves of the opportunity,
is the arrival and unloading OF the
circus paraphernalia and the animals.
There are 600 beautiful horses with
