$A$ horizontal uniform glass tube of $100 \ cm$ length, sealed at both ends, contains a $10 \ cm$ mercury column in the middle. The temperature and pressure of air on either side of the mercury column are $31^{\circ} C$ and $76 \ cm$ of mercury, respectively. If the air column at one end is kept at $0^{\circ} C$ and the other end at $273^{\circ} C$, then the pressure of air which is at $0^{\circ} C$ is (in $cm$ of $Hg$):
