What he didn’t say, however, but the probable reason behind his squawk was that the new April date for a continuation of the meeting in New York would be inconvenient for him, as he is accustomed to spending April at his California home.Marshall first made news at the meeting by arriving without coach Dudley DeGroot, which is tantamount to DeGroot being out of a T job. His name has already been ir linked with the vacant Cornell post, t: Although delegates refused com- f ment on the brief adjournment, it is plain that they want to see more f® clearly what the government has in 11 store before making definite plans. cPvlt;Clc:t]
