the main undermining point Of this

and then follow his instructions. L

I Now that football Is no longer in season
and therefore has hibernated for an
other season we have some things that
should not be forgotten such as: LOUIS

members OF the B.A.A.A. were guests
Of this organization at a banquet two
weeks ago Monday. e.. Also there were
many protests on the jackets we re-
ceiyed last year; just see Ernie Mayors
as he Is on the jacket committee.
