College Graduates
Both of them were college
graduates. Their romance had
begun on the campus several
wears back. Neither of them
was wealthy, but both were in
telligent and hoped for great
things from the future. Nothing
breeds more optimism than
youth on a college campus. Un-
less it's a man who orders a real
hamburger steak in a railroad
station.
In their four years at college.
they were always together. 1t
was understood that they were
to be married as soon as they
received their priceless pieces OF
parchment that signified gradu-
alton. I don't know why. college
diplomas are always called price
less. but 1 suppose it's because
they mean everything one day
and nothing the next.
When they left college, Chey
went through the marriage cere-
mony in the approved fashion.
They might have waited until
one or the other secured a job,
but they didn't choose to hesi-
tate. So the good man said
the words-and there they were,
for better or for worse.
They soon found out that the
world wasn't particularly wor'
ried about them. The positions
they had dreamed about didn't
seem to materialize in any re
spect. In other words. it wasn't
long before they found them.

The decision was reached
after study Of charges pre-
ferred against the eligibility

played on a Jeffersonville high
school team on Jan. 16, 1881, and
was a student in the high school on
both those dates.
The board ruled that Rauth
clearly was ineligible after Dec. 10.
The second charge declared We
Der attended st. Xavier high school
at Louisville for three years from
September, 1924, to June 1927, but
had lived in Jeffersonyille during
that time. He entered Jefferson
vile in January, 1880, but it was
testified there had been no change
in the residence of his parents.
The board ruled that Weber could
not have. become eligible for two full
semesters and was hence ineligible.
1t also ruled him a flve-year man.

and asserted he attended Month
cello Ky) high school from Sep
TENDER, 1927, to Oct. l, 1880. He en-
rolled in JefferSonville high school
on Oct. 8, 1880.
His father and sister continued
to live in Monticello, but his mother
moved to JefferSonville and he made
his home with her while residing in
the Indiana city.

for change as Gin doubt" It limited
at undue influence and then pro-
ceeded to suspend Jeff until June
