Tapir Tunnels OUT
OF SD. Zoo, Plays
In Storm Drain

SAN DIEGO, Cal. Oct. Is UP
Trudy, a pound Malay tapir
tunnelcd her way our Of the san
Diego 200 and played around in
Il storm drain for nearly week
before she was caught and returned
to her cage
Trudy, a long-snouted daughter
of deepest Asia, is nocturnal so
after she escaped she just ambled
around during the dav in the dark
storm drains from 18th Street &c
the waterfront 20 A!ocks distance
and at night came out 10 forage
for food III Balboa fark.
Finally, the keeper 6ot thinking
hard and thOIght what he would
do if ne were tapir. He and a
crew of assistants went to the large
opening OF the storm drain near
the ZOO and crawled INTO il about
10 blocks under the ccIiter of the
city. CobWcbS and darkness stop
ped them before they reached then
objective.
Meanwhile, a sewer gang slipped
down into a man-holc in 4 street
near the waterfront and ran into
Trudy.
As Trudy is allergic to strange
noises of civilization it WAS easy
TO scare her into a large crate at
one opening of the storm drain
Trudy was bit haggard looking
and willingly accepted her first
real meal in 4 week.

.Seapower Will Decide
World S Fate, Knox
Tells Midshipmen
Secretary Tells Academy
Graduates to Be Ready
To Give Your All
By the Associated Press,

ANNAPOLIS, Feb. 7.-Secretary
of the Navy Knox pictured for the
graduating class at the Naval Acad-
en1y today "a slave world subject
TO the imperial will of ruthless die
tators" if control of the high seas
should pass to those who support
the totalitarian theory of govern
ment."
The Navy Department chief con-
graduated the young ensigns on
having the privilege" Of entering
their professional life at time OF
grave situations. Recalling that a
much smaller class had been COM
missioned 80 years ago just prior to
the Civil War, Secretary Knox said:
You are entering upon the stage
of YOUR professional life under the
shadow of another irreconcilable
conflict. This time, the whole world
is involved.
Warning Forces Analysed.
"The forces which are now in
collision throughout the world are
irreconcilable The struggle now
going on in Europe and Asia lies
I, Between those who would make
every human being the chattel OF
the state, with no rights which the
state is bound to respect. and those
who would maintain the principle
of individual freedom and individual
fberty, with the state as servant
Of the free men who create it and
maintain it."
Secretary Knox emphasized the
responsibility of contributing your
: !. if need be, to the defense of your
liaerties."
ITO the right thinking young
--~n," he said. this is not only
possibility, but it is high privi-
se."
Seapower Vital Factor.
!, "Our world of today, to greater
+ gree than ever before, understands
Importance of seapoWer." Secre-
.ry Knox told the Annapolis grad
rtes. CAS- never before, in this
.uggle of two contrasting systems
{, human government. the control
CT the seven seas is vital.
Those nations in the next GEN.
tury who, through seapower, con-
troll the high seas will determine
what the next century's history
shall be. If that seapower is exer-
cised by those who believe in the
democratic form. the world will be
free. If. on the other hand, con-
troll Of the seas passes to those who
support the totalitarian theory of
government, the world will be a
