WISCONSIN 3
ECKERSALL 6

Wisconsin 8, Eckersall 6, was the
score chalked up around Madison by
enraged students and supporters of
the cardinal on Saturday as a result
of the football game between the
Universities of Wisconsin and Mich
gan. Outplaying Michigan in every
department of the game Wisconsin
was obliged to swallow a defeat dose
of six to three. The six points award
ed to Michigan by Referee EckersalI
came as a result of run made by
Rockwell, after it was believed by
practically everyone at the game that
the ball was dead and the runners
down. Even Michigan players admit
ted that the ball was dead.
Taft, Wisconsin fullback, again
starred as he did week ago against
Illinois He Outpunted Kipke, Michr-.
gan's touted full back, and aside from
his great work in this department Of
the game, played brilliantly both in
running with the ball, passing and
tackling He certainly has surpassed
all full backs in the conference this
year.
A summary Of the gains made by
the two teams shows that Wisconsin
made one hundred more yards than
Michigan in scrimmage plays, gained
Sc more yards in passes, made 10
first downs to Michigan's a; record
that is enough to win any football
game but the one Saturday.
1t was with difficulty that the
referee, Eckersall of Chicago, was
escorted from the field without rough
handling AS it was, he received one
crack in the face before he could b.
rescued.
Never again will Eckersall referee
q game in which Wisconsin takes
part, Director of Athletics Jones Of
Wisconsin is quoted as saying after
the game.
So unfair did the touchdown given
Michigan seem that many at Madison
who had bet on Michigan to win paid
their wagers to Wisconsin support
ers declaring that it would be nothing
short of grand larceny to take any
money from Wisconsin hackers.
Eckers all, in a statement today, ap-
pears to be trying to place the blame
for his decision on Mumma, the fiel0
judge.

Formed by waves of long ago,
Stand stately, strong, immovable,
With autumns leaves aglow.
The mind that framed them is sublime
The hand that painted them supreme.

THREE CHILDREN
TO One MOTHER

The mother who brings as many as
six children into the world overdoeS
her position in society and becomes
at least so per cent failure.
This statement was made before the
closing session of he midwest birth
control conference in Chicago by DR.
Dorothy Booker, psychologist at St
Marks hospital in New York, and
noted writer on medical subjects, who
bases her opinion on observation dur
ing years of medical and social well
fare work.
"Bears Six, Sacrifices Six"
A mother by giving birth to six
children lin one way or another, sacri--
fees the lives of at least six others
through lack of proper knowledge or
application birth control measures, 80
DR.. Booker told delegates to the CON,
ference.
The normal healthy woman is cap
able Of having just about three chill
dren without detriment to herself or
to them, she said.
After the third child the infant
death rate increases alarmingly The
fourth child and those thereafter will
probably be started in life with some
physical handicap thaa will afflict
them throughout life. Then, the moth
er becomes a physical failure herself
for having a child is greater ordeal
for a woman than prize fight is for
a man. Yet, children are horn casu+
ally, with no thought of physical prep
aration where prize fighter trains
