Cup for Highest Batting Average
Goes to Premier Slugger of Fiji
Team.
The trophy cup, presented annually
to the player having the highest bat
ting average in the Fraternity
league, was won this year by Alva
Grout, the batting demon of the Fiji
team. Grout, who is red headed and
hails from Ireland, has the happy
faculty of meeting things squarely.
In eleven times at bat, he managed
to hit six times, and his hard drives
to center field were the sensation of
the game. The cup, which changes
hands annually, will be presented to
Grout as soon as his name and aver
age have been engraved upon it.
The batting averages of all the
players, who were at bat the requi
site number of times to enter the
race are as follows:

EDUCATION AND MOTHERLY
SACRIFICE COMPARED
Statistics recently published of the
University of Cincinnati have caused
wide newpaper comment because they
appear to indicate that students as
a class are comparatively poor. The
figures, for example, show that 45
per cent of the matriculates come
from families whose income is less
than $1,500. Even a small family
cannot luxuriate very extensively on
$1,500 a year in a city the size of
Cincinnati. Another ratio extracted
by the statistician is the fact that
40 per cent of the students in Mr.
Taft’s town come from families
which rent their homes. In view of
the prevalence of apartment houses
in eastern cities this fact may not be
so significant, although Cincinnati is
not so much an apartment house city
as several others.
But a strikingly interesting propor
tion disclosed is the fact that 19 per
cent of the students are fatherless
and are being aided in their college
course by widowed mothers. This
suggests conjecture as to whether
mothers, more generally than fa
thers, believe in the value of college
training. Certainly the help of sons
who are old enough to attend a uni
versity is more needed, as a rule, by
widows than by fathers.
rerhaps the conditions in this par
ticular obtaining at Cincinnati would
not be borne out by records of other
colleges, but it is a fairly safe haz
ard that general statistics would ac
tually show a greater proportion of
orphaned students In college than is
found among boys of this age out in
the world. Certainly the biographies
of men who have achieved more or
less success in this country, are suffi
ciently replete with instances of
those who have obtained their edu
cation under such circumstances to
warrant the conclusion that the sit
uation at Cincinnati is fairly repre
sentative of college life.
If this be true, therefore, does it
mean that mothers more than fathers
have faith in higher education, or is
it only another illustration of that
superior spirit of self-sacrifice in
motherhood which the world has ever
been ready to concede?
To Celebrate 75th Anniversary.
The University of Michigan is
planning to celebrate its 75th anni
versary. The celebration will be
elaborate and enthusiastic.
