B. or herself the break? Now V. goes to Tech, so that explains the whole thing. ..._.. .Will the “Quart Squad” please teach their members how to control temper, especially when in public. Shot Riley I should teach you a few lessons in love, and everything for you would be lovely... Will Shot continue to type Guilford. .Would it be personal to ask H.
