LAFAYETTE TO BE UNVEILED IN FREDERICK REBEL MDSHPHAN BECONES ENSEN Zirkle, Who Refused Commis- sion at Graduation, Changes Mind and Takes Oath. Midshipman Earl Blair Zirkle of Kansas, who declined to accept his commission recently, changed his mind, and after Secretary Wilbur di- rected the superintendent of the Naval Academy at Annapolis to swear him in as an ensign, he took the oath. Zirkle had been carried on Navy rolls as an extra midshipman and made the cruise with the practice squadron this Summer in that rank, although his classmates had the rank of ensign. He indicated on his return from the crnise that he had changed his mind and was ready to accept his commission. Awaited Wilbur's Return. Naval Academy authorities, ho over, deferred action until Secretary Wilbur retucned froma trip to the | West Coast, and the order directing | wearing In of Zirkle was issued . Wilbur's divection.

The Secretary’s action was based to some extent upon the report of the commander of the battleship New York, on which Zirkle made the cruise, which id Zirkle had been well conducted and efficient while aboard the ship. Zirkle will serve as an ensign for at least two years. Should he resub- mit his resignation from the naval service at the end of that time, it probably would be accepted without question, as he was refused permis sion to resign this year only because the stipulation to which he -ommitted at the time he entered ti : serve two vears after STEEL SLIPPER BUCKLES Polished and Restored to Look New By Experts in Our REPAIR DEPARTMENT SALVATORE DESIO Jeweler, 926 F Street F Street, Bet. 9th and 10th *THE*AUTUMN -OF*TWENTY - SIX" Saks” PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE AT SEVENTH SATURDAY A Really Big Sale of Men’s USHERS Fine Low Shoes!
