hound that shot his master three
weeks ago, is dead.
All this while Jacks master,
Pierre Ivy Leblanc, has been un-

The accident happened while

hunting trip.
Jack shifted the gun and took out
for the woods. Anthony PLEASANT

HOWE is referring to Handy
Vandy Kirk, his best back - and
Yale's best student in the school
of divinity.
Creighton Miller, all America

one OF the country's most eligible
