He won it anyway, bind ing the wrist tightly and favoring it throughout his routines. Unfortunately the wrist could not be brought around in time for the Nationals and he had to forego the tournament until this year. Speaking of next week's East erns, Valentino said that he tires himself out practicing before a meet. So he will go into competi tion "cold"—without any practice. Well, at least there have been no fire-hydrants this year. Not yet! Council To Repair N. Atherton Street State College Borough council Monday night adopted a resolu tion to have the Department of Highways widen and improve N. Atherton street. Final improvement plans are not completed yet but will be subject to council review when finished. George E. Nagele, dis trict engineer, said complete plans would be ready soon, and that the project would probably be started this year. Council took this action to wid en the highway after a request by College Heights school par ents that steps be made for the safety of the children in that area. PAGE SEVEN
