RECORDS SHOW COLLEGE

While the University of Delaware
student of today may, with moder-
ate economy. spend year in college
for about $500, which is exclusive of
tuition. free to residents of Delaware,
and $3.50 year to non-residents, and
deem himself or herself lucky that
such a log figure is charged. the cost
OF college education fifty, or one
hundred years ago. in the same in
stitution was so low as to excite
wonder at the comparatively small
number who took advantage of it.
But there were some drawbacks,
even privations, in those early days
that would cause the modern student
to look askanee.
Take the year 1847, for example.
According to records that have come
to the knowledge of the committee
that is preparing for the Centenary
of the University on May II, IL and
IL. next the cost in that year for
tuition. room-Tent, fuel, and Incl
dental expenses was $6S. Board
could be had at from $1.25 to 50 per
week. or 40-week year at not more
than $50. Laundry cost $12 to $50
a year, and one terms books cost

ton. lodging, and incidentals cost in
that year $3.50, while board would
average $3.50 a week, or $40 for a
40-week year. Thus, one might
spend year at Delaware College
for perhaps 1925.
But even in 1870, students bathed
where and when they could. White
Clay Greek nearby offered facilities
that were rather fearsome in the
dead of winter. In fact, the institu-
tion had no general heating system.
and individual stoves were used in
the rooms. As to lighting, every
student had to bring his own lamp
and supply of coal oil.
And, with Inadequate heat in the
winter, with rooms unbearably hot
or perilOusly cold by turns. there
was a contrast in the summer days
when the small rooms were like
little infernos."

Restores Ancient Glory.

DRoFFEssIoNAL debaters like
Sam Spero. Joe Luthos and Dan
Skenopolas will be hurrying from
group to group, holding stakes and
melting combat. There are angry
shouts and earnest whispers. The
profits from a million quick shines
are riding with Christopher Theopohi-
los. alias Jim Londos. the honey
voiced and scholarly strong man who
put Greece back in the sports atlas.
Not SO many years ago. Greek
wrestlers ranked along with
Turks, Magyars and Lithuanians
in the estimation of the mat
public.
There was no son of Athens or
Sparta or Thebes to support the
glory of his country and WOO the
silver from those Hellenic cash reg
isters. As q matter of fact. Greek
wrestlers were held in very low repute.
It's told of Bull Montana that he
broke long string of honorable de-
feats on the mat by refusing to go
to the tank for Greek. The Bull,
before he went to Hollywood and got
rich. used to tour the length and
breadth of the Nation, losing wrestling
matches and collecting a modest pit
tarce for the job. But one night he
was matched with an Argive. and his
Neapolitan temperament broke loose.
II will not tank for Greek"
said the Bull to his sponsors.
He won the match from the local
boy and left town few yards ahead
of a delegation of citizens armed with
rocks and used razor blades. He
went back to his diving ways, but
his sponsors never forgot the episode.
They became more careful in the
selection of the Bulls opponents.
