' LeRoy Duncan, having not yet decided whether or not to leave this in- stitution, the cares of the world being too heavy for his puny shoulders, leaves his favorite seat in the library to Horace Hyman: his ambition and el- oquent voice to Robert Galaher, and his favorite cereal for growing ,children to Douglas McCormack. Viola DeNault leaves a pair of shears to Mildred Dill, just in case she ever has to cut her hair which by the way is the envy of many of the per- manent wave addicts.
