think it would be good business for
the employees of G. S. Hepburn to

its success. I'm suggesting you go
through with your plan - minus
two little details. Instead of selling
the stock to the employees at an in

exactly the price you paid for it.

NHcKY's MERRY CHRISTMAS
CHAPTER TX

It wasn't very Merry Christmas for Carol as she and Mary climbed into Bills ancient car and headed for the hospital. Bill, in his Santa Claus suit, seemed less downheart- cd than last night. He'd get another job, he assured them, and show Mir, AeTrick that somebody else would trust him.
 Mary, too, was lifting herself above her troubles. She had the promise of 0 job on January and was happy about 1t.
 And Nicky was going to be all right. The hospital had given her a favorable report just before they started.
 It should have cheered Carol,
 But it didn't.
 Nothing could. Not as long as pearborns was being ruined by MT. Herrieks mismanagement and Andy was sitting calmly by, unaware of the tragedy of 1t,
 No, the sight of lighted trees and burning candles choked her. Wreaths of mistletoe left her un- moved. It was Christmas every whsre-except in Carols heart.
 she forced Q smile to her lips when they entered the big, brick building of the hospital. She must be gay for Nicky's sake.
 quietly, Bill pushed open Nicky's door and peered in. Were too late" he whispered.
 Tge stood aside and they all stared at the darkened room lighted by tho huge Christmas tree already decorated and sitting beside Nicky's bed.
 Carols surprised eyes moved to the figure bent to the floor near the tree. The figure strAightened. It was Andy Dearborn. He was put. ting together the pieces of track for an electric train.
 Andy said, "fIello, Carol. Hello, Mary. Merry Christmas" He nod ded cooily to Bill.

looked trivial beside Andy's lavish ones.
 It was difncult for any of them Co find something to say, Finally Carol gave Nicky their packages but her good wishes stuck in her throat. She smiled and patted his hand.
 "Jiminy-geel Thankst" The boys expressive face told an appealing story. "What Q Christmas this turned out to bel"
 They watched him open the gifts. Then Carol went to stand above Andy. He was just starting the new train.
 "The doctor says Nicky will make it now" he said aside to her,
 "I'm glad" She mustn't lot his affection for the boy encourage her to forgive him. The whole affair, indirectly, was Andy's own fault, He should have been able to see through the sham of Mir, Herrick long ago. Yet even the accident hadn't opened his eyes,
 When Andy left, Carol turned re- belllously to Bill. "You see, Bill9 He planes you, too. Mir. Herrick has seen to that. You ought to 60 to Andy yourself, Make him listen to your side of the story.

 Carols right" Mary added. "You ought to see Andy, Bill"
 They had forgotten Nlcky. He said, his eyes thoughtful, "Aw, they don't think it's your fault, do they MT, Bill?"
 They all looked at the boy. Bill shook his head. Carol said, You aren't to worry about it, Nicky,"
 Impetuously, Mary said, "Bill got fired for 1t, Nlcky."
 "Firedp" His eyes widened. "But Jiminy-gee, Mfr. Bill al'ays took care of everybody He wouldn't make an accdentl"
 "Thats all right, Nicky," Bill as- sured him. "T'he only thing that matters is your getting we'll"
 We may tire him." Carol said Wed better go"

 She saw his jaw tighten. He could be stubborn when he chose She felt obligated to see that he went Saturday night It would be good for his self-confldence.

Newton, Mass, Feb. 27 - U.P0 Graduate Manager John P. Cur ley said today that the perfect combination" for a successor to Frank Leahy as Boston College foot ball coach would be a young fel- low who already has acquired some reputation but who still is on the way up in his profession"
 Curley said he honestly" was going into tonight's meeting of the graduate board of athletics with an open mind and no one candidate as my choice.
 Credited two years ago with se- curing Leahy, then virtually un- known line coach at Fordham, Cur lev said circumstances were differ ent this time.

Wesleyan Hoopmen Suspended d For "Poor Condition

Middletown, Conn, Feb. N.- (UP)-Three members of Wesleyan University's basketball team, includ- ing Co-Captain Johnny Kay, were under suspension today for breaking training rules.
 Kay, Bob Nicholson and Tommy Whalen were suspended by the phy- sical education department before the team left for Wi1liamstown, Mass, yesterday to play Williams. Wesleyan lost the game, 34 to 31, after holding the lead through most of the encounter.
 Physical education officials and students in the past few days have complained the team was not in condition, and lost games after holding the lead through most of the playing time.
 It was not known whether the suspensions would hold through the rest of the season. Two important games will be played within the next six days. The Trinity game will be played Saturday and Univer- sity of Connecticut Wednesday.
