make a decision tonight at

Meanwhile however, there is lit
tie possibility that the Panama
iunket will be Cancelled. Contracts
have been signed and arrange
ments have been completed that
should see the Key Wcsters wing
their way to Panama next week
to face the Canal Zone champions.
The delay in vaccinating the
squad was caused by reluctance
on the part of officials to risk a re-
action that may hamper the
ConchS' performance.
Yesterday was the first day
the squad could possibly have
been vsecinated due TO their re-
auIar football schedule. Reac-
! ton from the vaccine is said to
result five or six days after in
