some German girls continue to make
tirroads in the American forces in
Germany, despite the standing order
issacd two years ago that enlisted men
who married here would be returned
Ito America with their wives on the
next transport.
E,cry transport with returning
Itroors carries its quota of newlywed,
land whenever troop train leaves
Coblenz for Antwerp, the port of en-
barkation, the flower shops do q
splendid business, their customers be-
ing chiefly Germans who desire to be-
stow flowers upon the departing
brides, full of anticipation and hope
for Il wcr derful existence in their new
homes across the Atlantic.
MOI" than 1000 American soldiers
have married in Germany during the
last two years and ten months, ac-
cording to estimates of American Of
flcers and German civil officials. Most
of the men and their wives already
have been sent to the United States.
! Many soldiers who desired to mar
ry and remain in the service on this
side. took great pains, officers say, to
keep the facts from becoming known
generally. Officers say some Of the
soldiers took their prospective brides
into unoccupied Germany. and were
married there. most of these events

they are quick and clear-thinking, too.
Sometimes they seem fearfully ag-
gressive. and the next minute they are

statesmen are so approachable. There
lis not much pomposity here in Amer

PAID COLLEGE SPORTSMEN

FOLLOWERS OF conference football are watching
with deep regret the result Of the football game
between two small Illinois towns. great deal OF
betting had taken place in past years between the
two towns The game had always been square with
home talent representing each town.
At last the sport fell into the hands of gamblers
Every man in the two towns virtually became a
gambler The first town bought University OF llli-
nos players Gamblers in the other town hired
husky 1rfshmen from Notre Dame. The Nore
Dame players won.
In all probability the gamblers of each town
promised the players enough for a single game to
pay expenses for entire year in college. Anyone
who has ever experienced the hard-bit life of col
ege boy struggling to make ends meet knows wha,
4 temptation this became.
The boys of both schools have been outlawed
Their standing with the student bodies OF the two
schools is gone. They not entirely to blame.
There should be some law that would make it pos
sble to imprson men who corrupt collegiate sports
Resolved down to the final analysis, sport in the
two universities dealt severe blow by gamblers.
Any form of gambling ruins sport.
