ISC Accepts
NCAA Invite
To ICC. Meet
The Iowa State college athletic
council has reconsidered and ac
cepted a bid to compete as a
representative of the fifth district
in the National Collegiate Ath
letic association's western playoffs
in Kansas City, March 24-25, ac
cording to an announcement by
Athletic Director George Veenker.
The council had decided Monday
to turn down the bid because of
the possibility that the Cyclone
team could not be held together
until tournament time. The offer
was renewed by the NCAA selec
tion committee, however, and the
council decided to accept the sec
ond bid.
J. A. Foster, teacher at Michi
gan State, recently proved his do
mesticity to one English class. To
fill the dead-pan silence following
the words: "Are there any ques
tions?" he explained in answer to
questions about his dirty hands
that he had peeled a bushel of
peaches the night before.
