Kerr, the leading ground
gamer with 55 of Penn States
267 yards, made the important
first downs and the touchdown.
Maryland came out passing
after Penn States early score.
Betty selected Gary Collins, Ev

first three receivers, and Mary

Steps are being taken to cor

Actually, city officials and

stood when the census was taken
this year.
Mayor Allie Povall, speaking
to the Rotary Club Tuesday, said
even though the unofficial count
shows a decrease of 1896 people,
the actual loss in figures is due
to the fact that the Balance Due
