LOSE CLOSE GAME

Tech High School. of Washington
handed the team of Alexandria High
School the second defeat of the season
Wednesday night by the score of 20
to 10. Both teams played what is
generally called an air-tight game,
but the endurance powers of the vlS-
itors proved to be too much for the
Alcxandrians.
From thirty seconds after the first
whistle, when Blues Pettitt sent
one through the corded cage, Alex
andria led unit! the last two minutes
of the play. The first quarter ended
with A. Fl S. on top of the 4 to goose
epr" score. In the second quarter
; xandria kept up the good work.
L ding it with the score s to /, Petit
and Dreifus having Gagged one each
during this period.
The second half started off with
pep. Petit was in form, CARRYING
the ball the full length OF the floor
several times and then dropping it IN,
Tech also came back strong after tn"
rest and made several field goals.

The dawn of yesterday marked an
anniversary of keen interest to near
iy 100000 American men.
Fifty-four years ago--on Feb,
ruary 1G, 1865 a little group OF
fourteen men sat in stuffy room in
New York City, Twice they voted
on matter they had been debating
for weeks. On the second ballot, the
now almost-forgotten fraternal or
der of the "Jolly Corks" was dls-
banded. And the Benevolent and FRO
tective Order of Elks was born.
The first membership report in the
archives Of the Elks is dated Decem-
Der q, 1868. New York Lodge NO.
/, the Mother Lodge of the Order,
was then it's only lodge. There were
rs members on the rolls.
The fifty-fourth anniversary OF the
Orders birth shows membership OF
more than 181 900 Elks in more than
1,4OO lodges that dot the United
States of America. At Anchorage,
Alaska, the farthest north Elk lodge
stands amid almost polar ice and
snow. Elk lodges rise at Brownsville,
Texas, and Key West, Florida-farth-
est southern points of the continental
United States. Our Canal Zone has its
lodge at Balboa Heights. Our island
possessions are starred with Elk
lodges at Manila in the Philippines,
at Honolulu and Hilo in Hawaii, at
Guam, and at San Juan in Porto Rico.

MAY ABANDON
FORTIFICATIONS
IN PHILIPPINES
War Department Believes
Islands Will be Protected
by Pacific Treaty
FORTS PRECLUDED
Radical Cut in Armed Forces Will Aid
In Administration Economy Pro-
gram.

Washington, Feb. lT.-Military de-
Tense of the Philippines may be COM
pletely abandoned by the United
States even before ratification of the
four-power Pacific treaty.
The step is known to be under con-
sideration in the War Department. If
it is carried out under pressure for
further reduction of the strength of
the army, the garrison which has been
maintained in the islands for defen-
sive purposes ever since the first
American troops landed under Dew
ey's guns in 1898 will be cut to no
more than police force to support
the authority Of the insular Gov
ernment.
Should this policy be finally adopt
ed it will be based on the contention
that the treaty guarantees the secur-
ity of the islands from attack by any
signatory power and that they should
be left to the protection of interna-
tional good faith.
AS an evidence of its own complete
good faith such action by the United
States, it was said, would have strik-
ing emphasis. The possibility of ag-
gression against the islands by any
nonsignatory power is regarded as so
remote as not to deserve considera-
ton.
In any event, it was said yesterday,
the provisions of the naval limitation
treaty setting up a status quo agree
ment as to defenses of the Philippines
or other islands covered by its terms
prevent establishment of Notifications
adequate to repel an in%s1|ar bent on
occupation of Manila. Already, in
anticipation of ratification, both the
army and navy have ordered ship
ments Of mines and anti-aircraft guns
scheduled to be added to the Manila
defenses stopped en- route.
The War Department also has re-
scinded orders for bombing squad
ron of airplanes which would have
added materially to the strength of
the Philippine garrison. This action is
regarded by army men as of particu-
lar significance. since military thought
as to the possibility of preventing
with comparatively small force, any
landing of hostile troops in the islands
has lately been leaning strongly to-
ward the conclusion that much might
be done in this way with aircraft, but
not with any mobile army or fixed
