Tomrily Slusser played the leading roles. Standing on his own 28-yard line, Mikelonis heaved a thirty-five yard pass to Knapp; who was downed in his tracks on the Muhlenberg 32- yard line.

They, therefore, feel that if the debts of the store are paid by the proceeds of their contemplated sales, the rightful creditors of the store will be paid. On the other hand, they maintain that the crediors of a pri vate individual should not be paid by this sale, inasmuch as the whole thing is based upon the fact that the notice of separation of the two enterprises was not published in the public press a sufficient number of times. In order that the goods may be ob tained by the committee at as low a figure as possible, the . committee plans to solicit the cooperation of every bookstore in town. - They will be asked to refrain from bidding the materials in. The committee is hoping that this cooperation will be accorded them. One member, however, said: If this cooperation is not given us, there is bound to be some excitement. I am sure the College ctudents will' not want to miss that."
