Four Years at Harvard Too

Floyd L. Strawn.
cts all off with college now.

Its all off with college now
| Such was the expression today Of Floyd
| L. Strawn, the twenty-year-o son of O.
| C. Strawn of 1915 New York avenue
northwest, who eloped to this city from
Frederick, Nd, early Saturday morning
with nineteen-year-old Zoe Anderson,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. William Ander-
son, and was married by Rev. Paul A.
| Mcneil of Concordia Lutheran Church.
The young man graduated from high
school last spring and had planned to
enter the freshman year at Harvard
within a few days to study mechanical
engineering. Friday night he went to
Frederick and met Miss Anderson at her
home which is in the outskirts OF Fred
erck The young folks had a few min
utes of spirited conversation, and the
young man then returned to the town to
spend the night in one of the hotels.
The young girl got permission from her
parents to spend the night at the home
of one of her girl friends. About B
o'clock Saturday morning Strawn APP
peared at the girl friends house, where
he found Miss Anderson ready to meet
him. They boarded a train and came to
this city. A marriage license was pro-
cured and within short time they were
man and wife.
Send Mother Telegram.
The first intimation the girls parents
received of the elopment was telegram
saying: "Floyd and were married here
today
When o. c. Strawn, father Of the young
man, heard of his sons marriage, he
promptly gave him place Of employment
in his business.
Young Strawn said today he first met
Miss Anderson while camping near Fred
erick early in the summer. 1t was case
of love at first sight. At first they plan
ned to get married when the young man
completed. his college course, but the
thought of waiting four long years was
not agreeable to either of them. After
considerable bordering they decided the
best thing to do would be to elope and
be married right away.

formations. In 1906 a frenzied public
ascribed all the fatalities and injuries Of
the foot ball season to this style of at
tack. 1t is a somewhat natural fear.
therefore, that the coming season should
produce a bigger class OF injuries than
usual, and if it does the new rules, par

souls should remember that the line at

were due to a player being hauled and
and this force coming in contact with one
OF two men on the defense. In such a
collision it was inevitable that some one
should be hurt. The two rules are likely
to neutralize each other as far as the
added danger is concerned.
For the first time since 1905 it looks as

Too Hot for Foot Ball.

Because of the unusually hot weather Of
the past week it is a question: whether or
not those colleges which got the jump on
their rivals in the matter Of preliminary
practice will have profited as much as
they expected. The Princeton team open
ed its formal practice Monday under
a broiling sun. with temperature Of 1O1.
The same intense heat handicapped foot
ball practice everywhere in the east The
greatest care has to be exercised in work
ing green men this early in the season
and under such unfavorable weather
conditions.

Princeton proposes to follow as near as
possible in the footsteps of w. w. Roper
and his assistants. who turned out the

actual field work will be in charge Of
Head Coach Cunningham, Wilson and
