Orville Drown, formerly commis. sioner of the District of Columbia Council and now a member of the troop committee of Troop 8, has offer- ed the troop a flag set if it scores 200 points in_the advancement contest during February. The boys are plan- ning to make Mr. Drown “shell out.” When the scribe figured out the troop standing he found that 25 per cent of the troop is first class, 65 per cent second cl; and 10 per cent ten- derfoot. This is well above the aver- age for an ideal troop.

Hanlon and MAe(‘hnn‘k‘ Robert White, and Lieut. Patrick Hill and Mechanic Joseph Carroll set out in two Army planes from Bolling IMield several days ago for Fairfield, | Onhfo. Both planes were forced down by fog, in which they became confused, and for mome time struggled in the skies above this city to get their bear- ings. Though one of the planes land- ed upside down on the John R. man farm, neither of the flyers was injured. A heavy snow made it diffi- cult to pick desirable landing space, but probably softened the shock of the uneven ground when the landings were finally made. Both planes were | 4 500n on theif way. 10,802 MONTH ALIEN GAIN Net Figures Given for December, Germany Leading for Europe.
