A belief that the "drys" are insti-

by Herbert jacob, commander of

this" Mr.. jacob said. "If there is
any drinking, I'm sure it's not as
much as they say"

Mr.. Sharpe said he had never
seen any drinking at games and
the charges would have to be proved
beyond doubt before he would be-

"Of course, I'm not a detective.

Hotel ReIoxes Rule to Permit Marine and Dog,
Both Veterans of Pacific, to Stay together
Cunine Scout Wears
Two Rows of Ribbons,
Including Purple Heart
BY NEWBOLD MOVES. JR,

Bogie and Nick are back together
today, and both of them feel pretty
good about it.
When former Marine Pfc. George
II. (Nick) Francis registered yester-
day at the Annapolis Hotel he had
to leave his pal Bogie behind for
the first time In nearly three years.
Bogie is a Marine, too, the wearer
OF two rows of ribbons, including
the Purple Heart with two Oak Leaf
Clusters, but he also happens to be
German shepherd dog, and there
is a rule that big dogs are not al
lowed in the hotel. So Bogie spent
last night at the Animal Rescue
League, II o street NV.
But Nick was lonely and SO was
Bogie, and today Nick went down
and got Bogie. brought him up to
the hotel and asked them to recon-
slider their decision in view of
Bogies record and his promise that
the lion-like veteran would behave
like a lamb. The hotel did recon-
sider-in fact they said they would
be honored to have the dog as a
guest.
Bogie's record is undoubtedly i'm
pressive, even for a Marine. Not
only was he wounded three times,
but he actually has been declared
officially dead by the Corps That
was the time Jap shot him through
the eye with a rifle and then
bayoneted him three times in the
neck. When the Marines found him
three days later, gangrene already
had set in. He was on the sick list
for four months after that.
The first time Bogie was wounded
was on Cape Gloucester. A mortar
bomb exploded few feet from him
and his original handler. Bogie,
knocked out by conclusion. also was
peppered by fragments. His wound
ed master was evacuated to another
island. That was where Nick took
over.
In addition to receiving rife, NOR
tar and bayonet wounds, Bogie once
was badly burned by flame throw
er. He got no Oak Leaf Cluster for
his Purple Heart that time though,
because it was an accident. A play
full Marine didn't know the weapon
Was loaded.
Nick says that Bogie, whose job
was that of silent scout" knew
what the war was all about and
never confused Marines with Japs.
AS matter of routine. he would go
out on patrol with the boys, warning
them of ambushes by pointing like
a bird dog, bristling and growing.
If the Japs ran, he would follow and
maui them. He seemed to like the
game and displayed no nervousness
under fire.

paigns, Bogie wears the Asiatic Pa

Adults Accused.
There have been instances also of
adults purchasing liquor in a pack

But the moving authorities at the
meeting agreed they were 'taxeo

orders up teJ 3 months in length
exists not only here, but in small
towns throughout the country" and
that they couldn't even find stor-
age space to let furniture await

Mr.. Waring, however, brought the
only ray of light when he explained
the Navy already is giving officers
and men packing crates and other
materials when they are ordered
out, and also using Navy trucks
for intermediate hauling.
The moving men then said, and
James F. Rowan of the association
supported them, that if the goods
and furniture were all packed and
ready to be carried down the front
steps transportation might be more
readily available.
Some of the 10000, the Army and
Navy representatives pointed out,
will not have furniture with them,
and they can be written off.
The Navy has always shouldered
responsibility of moving families
and furniture of officers and petty
officers second class and above. The
Army on November l is lifting a
wartime restriction which limited
their personnel, in grades compar-
able to the Navy scale, to only one
move during the war.
OF those scheduled to leave Wash

vast majority" will be personnel
about to be demobilized rather than
being transferred to other stations.
