Occasionally in the past there
have been classes which were noted
for their fine athletic material, but
up to three years ago, promising
athletes in the entering class We're
grabbed up for the varsity squads,
as there was no one year residence
rule. Never since the new rule
went into effect has there been
so much athletic material in
new class.
That the class averages much
greater in size than the usual
entering class was demonstrated
by the reports of the medical and
physical training departments, and
also by the supply department,
where it was found that the usual
sizes of clothing would not do for
the new class, but that q greater
proportion than usual Of large
sizes had to be obtained.
Members Of the new class
weighing from 100 pounds upward
are present in numbers which are
unprecedented, and In many
cases they have already demon
strated their ability to play foot
ball. There are in the class q
4 half dozen or more who are too
big for the crews, while in the
rowing squad are any number
weighing from 100 to $50 pounds,
with plenty Of strength and
stamina.
One member Of the class Is Paul
Woerner, who played tackle on the
swarthrnore varsity for two sea-
sons. He weighs 192 pounds, and is
over six feet in height. Woerner
can punt regularly around sixty
yards, and he may work In the
plebe baclfield this fall. This would
prepare him to make his kicking
more effective as a member Of the
varsity next season.
Another member of the class who
promises much is Russell Lloyd
4 great athlete from Peddie. He
weighs 205 pounds and is very
active, holding the New Jersey
State records In both hurdles.
LIoyd's position is end, but he may
be used closer in towards the

Los ANGELES, CAL, Aug. o.

ringside at the opening of the new

forum.

huge arena, causing Dempsey to
flush.
Dempsey, looking pale and tired,
made his appearance in evening
clothes and was introduced by Jack
Root, former light heavyweight
champion Of the world, manager OF
the new club.
Tom S. Andrews, formerly OF
Milwaukee, is matchmaker at the
new arena. where thousands were
turned away last night, unable to
get seats.
Billy Gibson, manager Of Gene

day in which he formally claimed
tie world heavyweight champion

Gibbons. His statement follows:

The increasing appreciation by the

Therefore. / am quite sure that II
could not support her and keep a
home on nv earnings. That is, II
couldn't support her as well as She is
supporting herself. When l tell her
that we cannot get married fer at
least another wear or two, she tells
me that if I loved her, l wouldn't
want to wait. I don't want to. but
what's a fellow going to do?
H. H.
Well. H. H., you do have vour
troubles. don't you? and OF course.
the only thing you can do is to talk
things over with this wonderful girl
If She is as wonderful as you think
and We hope for your sake she is. She
will understand, and-perhaps if she
likes her position, she will want to
continue working after the weddino
in order to hasten the happy day. AS
for breaking off because of YOUR small
salary, if money means that much
to her, it would be the wisest thing
that could happen.
You know, H. H., there is no tell
ing what women will do. You think
she hasn't any idea cf how small v.olr
salary is, but I have a bunch that if
she has known you for two years. she
knows more about your business af-
fair than you think she does. Nat
urally she can't tell you about it.
That is your job.
In the first place, there's world
of difference between two &C vo1r
statements. Not being able to sun
port a wife at all, and not being able
to support her in the way she has
been accustomed to, are two differ
ent things. If you are unable to sun
port her, you would be nothing less
than a cad to marry her. But if Won
are able to- support her, even though
it be on a smaller scale, l see no reas-
on why you shouldn't marry her, tell
ing her, of course, just how things
stand. If she loves you, she NAV be

am not advocating that a man
should not marry until he can support
a wife in luxury. In fact, I think a
few bumps will do lot toward bring

take a fortune for couple to marry
on. Marriage, however, does mean
making home, and making home
means a pay check sufficient to cover

IN CASE OF LOTS OF LOVE AND
LITTLE CASH

Dear Miss Flo
| have been going with a wonderful
girl for almost two years. While l
have often talked of marriage, | have
hesitated at an immediate wedding.
Consequently, she believes that / do
not love her-that l. am playing with
her. The fact of the matter is, l am
not sure of myself. I am not sure
that l can support wife, because
my salary is quite small. We have
never talked over the financial end of
the subject, SO l don't suppose my
sweetheart has the slightest idea eff
how small my salary is. I have tried
several times to tell her, but somehow
my courage fails me. l may be rath-
er sentimental, but it seems to me
the question of money should never
enter into the question of love. Then.
too, if she knows how darn small nv
salary is, l am afraid she will want
to break off. She has a very good
position, and while l do not know lust
what her salary is, do know that she
always buys the best of everything.
