Since most of the* latter go out

The Executive Committee aft

complete deadlock on its decisioh
about the Twilight league, but will
meet again Monday to decide the
advisability of having this popular
league again this summer.
The Twilight League has been
shelved temporarily pending the
action of the Executive commit
tee because the operation of the
league would conflict slightly with
studies during a regular semester
of school. In the past the league
has operated during the regular

Several merchants including Ag-

The Twilight League will be
conducted independently from the
