FOUND IN FOREST
WanderS With Moro Chief,
Deserted by All But Four
Followers.

BY the Associated Press.
MANILA, February A dispatch
from Zamboanga to the Daily Bulle-
tin today said Datu Tahil. rebellious
Moro chieftain, and his fourth and
favorite wife, Princess Tarhata Hiram,
Illinois University graduate and niece
of the Sultan of Suiu, both of whom
recently figured in a meeting with
the Philippine constabulary on Jolo
Island were found roaming about in
n forest on Mount Naligay, Island of
Sulu.
Tahil and the princess fled from
their intrenchmeEts on Jolo Island
after the presence of the royal per-
sonage had prevented for several days
an attack by the constabulary on Ia
hills followers.
The dispatch said Tahil and his
princess had only four followers with
them and that they now do not have
the sympathy of the Moros. 1t was
reported that both refused food and
shelter and that the princess was i'll
of exhaustion. IT was believed they
would surrender soon. Tahil is want
ed on a charge of sedition.
Datu Jailani. another Moro chief

be planning an attack on Jolo, princi-
pal city on the island of that name.
Jolo inhabitants were much excited,
despite lack of confirmation of the
report.
officials today explained that the
reason for the killing of six Moro
women by the constabulary in an at
tack on Tahils fort after his escape
was that they were dressed like men
and not distinguishable as women.

w YHILE a general impression
vAi seems to have got around
wv that Georgetown is likely to
have an easy game with
Lafayette tomorrow. Coach
Lou Little of the Blue and Gray looks
upon the contest in almost any light
but that. 1t is Little's opinion. based
on reports from his scouts who have
watched Lafayette. that the visitors
will present an exceptionally strong
eleven, and that Georgetown will
have to move at a faster gait than In
any of its previous contests to crown
its banner with victory.
About half the people I meet" says
Little, seem to have got the idea
from somewhere that we are in for an
easy game with Lafayette. From in
formation have been able to gather
from our people who secuted the
games Lafayette played recently, espe.
cially the one with Penn State. it
seems to me there is little real reason
for such an impression. Lafayette
has a lot of good foot ball players. just
about as good as ours, and how it ever
lost to Penn State last week the way
it did we have not been able to figure.
"You know. Lafayette made more
first downs than Penn State did and
was a much more consistent ground
gamer than Penn State. And. what is
more, Lafayette will have in the game
against us tomorrow two or three
men who have not been in the last
two games on account of injuries.
Mike Wilson. for instance, is back at
halfback and is one of the best backs
in the East.
''The way the game shapes up to
me. 1t seems that whichever team
gets the jump at the beginning will
come near winning. II we get going
in the first few minutes, I think we
will win, but If Lafayette gets the
under way, we are going to have our
troubles, and plenty of them"
Georgetown has been working out
against Lafayette plays this week,
the freshman team having been using
the Eastonians' offense. The first day
or so of scrimmage found the plays
troublesome to the Blue and Gray
varsity. but since that they have not
gone so WELL
Two backs and a tackle from last
are back in the Georgetown lineup
and may start the game. If they do,

that led to their suspension two weeks
ago.
Georgetown ought to be somewhat
stronger against Lafayette with them
in the lineup than it was in the West
Virginia contest. provided, Of course.
they measure up to the standard of
their last years play.
Chimenti and Wilson, who were
picked at Lafayette as regular half
backs at the beginning of the year,
will be in the lineup tomorrow. Both
really are fine players, and If at their
best should give Georgetown many a
troubled moment. Shellenberger, who
has been at halfback, has been shift
ed to quarterback for tomorrow's con-
test. It also is possible that Atkinson,
big end, may be back at his regular
job in place of Sherwood, sophomore,
who has been holding down the posi-
ton during Atkinson's injury.

TECH AND CENTRAL
ARE FACING TODAY

Topping the schoolboy foot ball card
today was the twenty-fifth annual
Tech Central game, always a big fea
ture of the season, which was to start
in Wilson Stadium at 3:15 o'clock. The
contest was expected to go long way
toward settling the public high title, if
It does not actually do so.
Tech will be striving to even the
score against Central as over the
quarter-century stretch the Blue and
White has won 10 and lost 8 games
and Tech has won and lost TO- There
have been five ties. Each team has
scored exactly 145 points against the
other.

not do so until Spring, when he ex-
poets a number of capable oarsmen
will come out for the sport. He says
that a match may be staged in May
between the Navy Plebes and a crew
picked from the Central and Western
squads. This race would be in addi-
ton to the annual Central-W Western
contest.
Among the Central boys to exhibit
particular promise this Fall is William
Matthews. 200pounder standing

fine future and is the best prospect
