Ross said, But this is not an in
crease over the 1928 records. Wo-
men between twenty-six and thirty
actually had less luck In gaining
husbands during the leap year than
women of the same age last year,
Ross said.
Ross figures showed that women
over the age of thirty-six were no
more fortunate in attaining the mar
tial state than women in the same
category have been in years gone
by. He drew the conclusion that
they either shirked their opportun-
tiles for leap year proposals or
found their selected men unrespcn-
