Bicycle and automobile thefts continue to rise at phenomenal rates, although no exact figures can possibly be obtained. At least 56 cars were reported stolen last year and the number of bicycle thefts probably has hit a large chunk of the student body.

Mrs. Tweedy had never forgotten what another horse breeder once told her: "The Princequillos will run all day-and if the races get long enough and the other horses get tired enough, sooner or later they...
