One young bruin headed straight for the executive offices, deserted in the confusion. Hot on his trail fol lowed the local animal-catchers. They cornered the bear in an empty room and closed in. The bear also closed in and succeed ed in tearing off the better part of Woodward's trousers. But finally, persistence was reward ed and the bear was subdued. Elated at their success, the boys put out after the other bear, who after a merry chase eluded his pursuers. . The captured bear was placed in an auto and transferred to the Hill. All who doubt the veracity of the mighty animal catcher's story may see the evi dence chained in a garage in the rear of the Phi Delta Chi house.
