Rear Admiral Robert E. Coontz, re- tired, who is to speak at the coming celebrity breakfast of the National League of American Pen Women Feb- Tuary 28 at the Willard Hotel, has had a long and colorful career in the United States Navy. A history of his experi- ences is a cross-section of American naval history and he is preserving it in his new book about to come from the press—“From the Mississippi to the Sea.” He is a graduate of Annapolis and in later years had the honor of serving as commandant there from 1910 to 1911 and going from there to his as- signment as Governor of Guam in 1912- 13. As a young naval officer he served for six years in the Alaskan service, be- coming’ proficient as a pilot in those waters. When the United States Fleet made its famous trip around the world in 1908 he was executive officer on the Nebraska. Some of the high spots in his assignment to the command of the 7th Division of the United States At- lantic Fleet, August 31, 1918; his work as assistant to the chief of naval op- erations in 1918; his confirmation by the Senate as chief of naval operations, October 24, 1919; his appointment as commander-in-chief of the United States Fleet, in which position he served from August 4, 1923, to October 3, 1925; and his final duty prior to retirement as commandant of the fifth naval district, Hampton Roads, to which he was as- signed November 30, 1925. Of great interest, too, will be the dis- cussion of “The English Novel” by Dr. William Allen Wilbur, provost of George Washington University. For some 33 years Dr. Wilbur has been teaching English at the university, first as a pro- fessor in that subject, then as dean of Columbian College and recently as pro- vost of the university. His classes in Shakespeare have been noted and he is considered an authority on literature of permanent value. Mrs. Ambrose N. Diehl of Pittsburgh, who with Mr. Diehl was recently enter- tained at the White House, and who is chairman of motion pictures for the General Federation of Women's Clubs and national corresponding secretary of the National League of American Pen ‘Women, will also be an honor speaker.
