FRIENDSHIP that originated

4 n toms rather compact campus
soon will be bound even tighter when
Johnny Baker, Washington-Lee High
School foot ball and track coach, be-
comes brother-in-law of Hardy
Pearce. Central gridiron and track
mentor.
Today Julia Flick, sister Of Hardy's
wife. Marion, announces her engage
ment to Johnny, thus forming another
junction in the careers OF two buddies
who have been inseparable since their
scholastic days.
1t all started back in Arson, Tex.
more than 10 years ago. Pearce. then
a strapping youngster of IT, was bat
tering holes in opposing lines for
Baker, one Of the Lone Star States
flashiest schoolboy backs.
For three years these lads blazed a
flaring foot ball trail through opposing
Texas high school elevens. and at the
same time formed a friendship that
has become more firmly cemented
down through the years.
Deciding to continue their foot ball
activities together, Pearce and Baker
enrolled at George Washington IN
1880. There they submerged their in
dividual brilliance to smooth the path
for three of the Colonials' greatest
gridiron stars-Tuffy Leemans, Zuzu
Stewart and Johnny Fenlon.
Baker, quarterback, was an i'm
portant cog in many of the long runs
made by Fenlon and Leemans. It was
his deadly blocking, coupled with
sensational ball-carrying, that brought
the Colonials one Of their most notable
victories, 1876 triumph over Auburn
in 1888.
While Mig McCarver was the hero
of the fray, scoring two touchdowns,
it was Bakers blocking that made
them possible. 1t was also the shifty
Baker who ignited the spark that fired

ALLEGHANY ABLE
TO MEET INTEREST.
ON SENIOR ISSUES
Payments on Two of Three
Obligations Now Possible
After Three Years.
BY the Associated Press,


NEW YORK, February 1.-The ap-
praisal of Allegheny Corp. bond COL
lateral, made by the Guaranty Trust
Co. of New York, indicated that for
the first time in three years the corpo-
ration would be able to meet interest
obligations.
Allegheny IS of 1914 and the SIS Of
1949, the two issues benefited by the
appraisal of the increased value Of
their collateral, advanced 3 and 2
points, respectively on the New York
Stock Exchange. Allegheny SIS of
1850 were unchanged.
Allegheny Corp, at one time the
top holding company for the Van
Sweringen Railroad System, was
placed in bankruptcy through provi-
sion in the legal agreement of its
three bond issues.
The agreements. or indentures,
stipulated that if the market price of
collateral dropped under $50 per cent
of face value, both the collateral and
interest thereon should be impounded.
The estimates of collateral an
nounced indicated, therefore, that
funds would be released for payment
of interest on Allegheny IS of 1914, anc
the SIS of l949.
Collateral for the SIS of 1914 was put
by the appraiser at s57,836,069, or 1874
per cent of the total issue of S3l AGO.
600. Collateral for the SIS of 1949 of
S35, 5,3l5,1o4 was l61 per cent of the
S2l, ,9000 900 issue.
The collateral for the SIS of 1850
however, was s13,276,236 or only 54
per cent of the s24,500,000 issue. In
the case of the latter issue funds can
not be released for interest payment.
