Who Stole lgorThe Beast JOHN C. BENTLEY. In the stealthy darkness of last Sunday evening, some foul fiend, or fiends, kidnapped Igor Rogues- pierre, prominent dog-about-town, from his quaint kennel behind the Beta house. John Anderson, Beta president, announced the kidnap ping early last Monday, and stated that several clues were left lay ing around. Police were notified immediately, and a city and state wide dog hunt got under way. Investigation Going On. Police Chief Jonathan Fladd- foud after making a thorough in vestigation revealed, that several persons were under direct suspi cion, and that these persons were being watched day and night by detectives. He also said, "From all Indications, this looks like a pro fessional job. Too many loose clues were left laying around." Beta pledges were set to work cleaning up clues, and it is sus pected that the kidnappers will have a few clues to clean up them selves. The thieves that purloined Igor evidently made their way up the alley running directly behind the Beta house, and under the cover of dark spirited the savage beast from his lair while he slept. From the looks of things, it was evident that Igor put up quite a struggle before being overcome. However, police were baffled by the com plete lack of finger or foot prints. Any Information leading to the apprehension and arrest of the foul perpetrators of this dastardly crime will be amply rewarded. Please report any suspicious per sons or acts, or any further infor mation that you might have to John Anderson, president of Beta' Theta PI. i I s i-)4. -(-.) 4 A IGOR AND FRIEND
