At that time he stated that the' policy of engaging Seiler to act as consultant of record on quotations on group hospitalization could be set up in such a way as to benefit a particular company.

Copies of a letter sent by Seiler to Business Manager William Landis, indicating recommended procedure, were distributed to board members.

MUSIN" N' MEANDERIN" (Continued from page 1) oiks who like to collect dais will be extremely pleased to know that inaugural kinds come in sterling silver and solid bronze. The dif­ ference is $40. The first inaugural plate in U.S. history measures^ inches in diameter, made of sterling silver. The cost is not so great ~ $150 - but don't send without sales tax. And to top off the offers is one for the official inaugural license plates which may be used through the month of January, 1973. The going price for two matching plates is $15, an improvement over the state plates until you use your mathematical talents and realize the usage time makes them a bad buy. As you count up your pennies to see which items you can afford, don't get carried away. There's a limit of one to a customer. So we sit back and anticipate a rush to the rtiails, smugly viewing our own souvenir in­ vitation. It will have to serve as our one and only invitation to importance. This column will soon be forgotten, but the in­ vitation will forever recall our "almost" touch with American History in the making. K.A.F.
