BELGIAN ACCORD
RESULTS HAILED
Reciprocal Trade Pact Has
Brought Far More Than
Expected.

Although less than q year old, the
reciprocal trade agreement between
Belgium and the United States has
brought results far In excess OF what
was anticipated. Assistant Secretary OF
State Francis B. Sayre told the WASH
ington Board of Trade at the May
flower Hotel last night.
This was confirmed by Count Rob-
ert van der traten-Ponthoz, Ambas-
sador of Belgium. who pointed to the
long friendship Of the two countries
and pledged his efforts to continue the
peaceful and profitable relations Of the
present.
The occasion was Belgian night"
for the Board of Trade and was dedi-
Gated to q celebration Of the success
of the first European reciprocal agree
ment made by the United States under
the trade act of 1884. Representatives
of the Belgian Embassy staff. the Bel
gian Chamber Of Commerce OF New
York, the United States Chamber OF
Commerce, the State and Commerce
Departments and the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee were among the
honored guests.
Colorful Flag Ceremony.
Preceding the addresses there was
brief, but colorful ceremony OF pre-
senting the national flags Of the two
nations. Two American soldiers, ac-
compa . led by an armed guard,
marched the length of the ball room
under spotlights and then stood at
attention as the orchestra played the
national anthems of the United States
and Belgium.
Belgium was not selected by
chance" Assistant Secretary Sayre
said, Ito be the first country with
which the United States opened nego-
tiations. We knew that the two coun-
tries see eye to eye. An accord was
natural and easy. We stand together
for economic disarmament. the only
pathway to economic peace"
James Gustavus Whiteley, an Amer
ican citizen who has served Belgium
at consul and consul general at Balti-
more for 80 years, was praised by the
Ambassador for his service to the
little kingdom.

Rafting the NAPLES for 173,
Clarence Dondera established a
new high season game record for
the A. & P. League last night at
Lucky Strike. The big string gave
the Sultana team roller both in
dividual marks, as he recently
chalked up 404 for top set.
Dondera's first two efforts of
the night were 100 and 100, which
gave him his second 400 set of
the season.
Joe Mulroe, who 10 years ago
ranked among the 10 leading pin
SpillerS of the city, is burning up

double honors with a high game

Roosevelt Quint
Meets Eastern
In Feature
BY GARRETT WATERS

The high school boys swing
into Act Four of their play, The
Inter-high School Basketball Sc
ries of 1885," today when per.
formers from Eastern, Roosevelt,
Western and Central take the
boards at the Roosevelt and Tech
floors.
The first two mentioned
schools get together at Roosevelt
at $3.50 p. m. while at the same
hour the Western and Central
teams play in the Tech gym. The
Roosevelt Eastern game is the
most important.
The boys have been rushing
the climax of this big drama
since its start a little over two
weeks ago. Usually the suspense
is carried to the very end.
Eastern Dominates Field
But as fate would have it, the
action is about over, the curtain
reached-all because of Eastern,s
overpowering domination over
the field.
Today the ParkerS lead their
brethren by game, victorious
in their two games. Furthermore,
Eastern gained as their rivals cut
down each other.
First, Central doomed as the
teams biggest obstacle for the
championship. The Centr a /
threat disappeared quickly, the
Mt. Plesanters going down to de-
feat before Tech in an upset en-"
counter and again later to an I'm"
derdog Roosevelt five.
Tech Strikes Snag
Then Tech bobbed into the pic
tue as a menace. The Trainers
ran into a Snag shortly after their
important victory over Central by
losing to Western last week.
And now Western. The George
toWnerS have a chance to become
Eastern's newest bugaboo, butt
only chance. That will be known
after today's game with Central.
On what has tranSpired it's Gen.
trails turn to play the deSpoiler'S
role, though without the services
of Will Thompson, star center, it
wouldn't knock many ajar were
Central to emerge triumphant. .,

despite the Riders winning form
against Central last week.

Throughout all day yesterday,

The two wins chalked up by the

he could break out winning

marked his competition.
Tilden will be 43 next month,
February 10. to be exact. He has
been q competitor, amateur and
professional, longer than any ath-
lete in any sport. That Tilden has
the illuminated spark of competi-
ton flaring nightly is evidenced
by the victory over Berkeley Bell
and his walloping Barnes in recent
exhibitions.
Washington is perhaps interest
ed in the California Ethel Arnold

played last summer when she pol
ished off Kay StammerS. British
queen, after that worthy had
romped over Helen Jacobs. With
Mrs. Arnold is the hard hitting
Jane Sharp.
Girls Appear Twice
The girls, Friday night at c. u,
will appear twice, in singles and
in mixed doubles. Both are hard
hitters and Miss Sharp is a per-
feet foil for the court-covering
Mrs. Arnold whose strength is her
ability as q getter.
