Washington, Feb. 20.—The campaign for national preparedness will enter on a new phase in consress next week, when in all probability bills providing for increasing the army to an extent| never before contemplated in time of peace will be introduced in both the house and senate. The house military committee will begin tomorrow its final review of the measure tentatively agreed upon last week and which, it probably will be taken Thursday, but it will require several days for Chair- man Hay to prepare a report to ac- company the 5 The senate committee agreed today to insert only a_general provision for | federalization of the national guard in its regular army reorganization measure, leaving the task of putting this legislation in final shape to thei joint conference cmmittee, to which the two bills will gzo. By this action the senate committee made it possible to_bring out its biil also next week. Before the ho naval committee, Rear Admiral Knizht continued today his recommendation that every facili- ty’in the country be employed to has- ten construction of a fieet equal to those of any two nations except Great Britain. American policies such as the Monroe doctrine, Asiatic exclusion, control of the Panama canal and the open door in China, he declared, con- stitute a great and growing threat of war unless adequate preparation to uphold them are made. BRITISH INSTRUCTIONS TO ARMED MERCHANTMEN. Must Not Fire on Submarines Except in Self Defense. London, Feb. 29, 9.14 p. m—On the eve of the date set by Germany for the beginning of her new submarine cam- palgn_against armed merchant ves- sels, Lord Robert Cecil, minister of war trade, has issued a statement giv- ing the British view of the status of such merchantmen. This statement, which is in answer to queries whether merchantmen have been instructed to take the offensive against submarines, says: “The British view has always been that defensively armed merchantmen must not fire on submarines or on any other warsips except in self defense. The Germans have twisted a passage in a document taken from a transport which they sank into meaning that merchant vessels have instructions to take the offensive. This is not so. “The passage in question, which lays down a maximum distance beyond which merchant ships are advised not to fire, must be read in conjunction with another passage which makes it perfectly clear that merchant vessels must not attack unless a submarine shows unmistakably hostile inten- tions, REPRESENTATIVE TILSON’S ADDRESS ON PREPAREDNESS. Introduces Bill to Supply Government With Guns and Ammunition. ‘Waishington, Feb. 29.—Representa- ive Tilson of Connecticut, of the house military committee, addressed the house today on a feature of the pre- paredness plans on which he has dwelt at length in committee hearings. Back- ing up his remarks with exhibits from varfous arsenals, he said that while there were hundreds of gun and am- munition factories in operation in this country, none but government plants were prepared to produce the weapons end cartridges needed by the Ameri- can army. A bill to provide for the manufacture of epecial tools and fixtures to make the necessary changes In privately- owned machines has been introduced by Mr. Tilson. H eestimated it would cost from $15,000 to $20,000, but de- clared that unless such a step were taken the country could not supply within a’ year the guns and ammuni- tion for a single great battle. With the fixtures on hand, he said, a month would eee an amply supply produced.

In addition to Meredith, last years champlonship quartette was made up of Don Lippincott, Joe Lockwood and Frank Kaufman. Lippincott has grad- uated, while Kaufman has not yet rounded into form. ILippincott's place has been taken by Tommy Lennon,who hag been showing wonderful form as an indoor runner. Lippincott was han- dlcapped last year by a pulled tendon and was always afrald to run himself out. Lennon has proved himself a faster indoor runner than Ldppincott, and if he can do as well on the out- goor track he will strengthen the team. Coach Orton believes that Lennon will be able to do 49 seconds. Right now he is planning to work Lennon in the 220 and 400 yard dashes. MYSTIC TRIMS PROVIDENCE. In Fast Basketball Game—Score 37 to 22 (Specfal to The Bulletin) Mystic, Feb. 20.—The fastest game of basketball played in Mystic took place Tuesday evening in Columbus hall, when the Providence team ap- peared before the Mystic bovs. This is the first one from out of the state to come to Mystic this® season and their coming so highly recommended brought out much enthusiasm among the basketball fans of village. At 8.15 when the teams started to play it was evident to spectators that Mystic was up against hard propo- sition and pldyed well. At the end of the first half the score was 13 to 13. When the last half started Mystlc did fine work and scored many times. The final score was 37 to 22 in fa- vor of Mystic. The lineup: Mystic, Providence.

He proved to be none other than Frank Hinkey, head coach of Yale until the hurried advent of the late Tom Shev- 1in, and since that advent, serving as scout for the Ell eleven. “By the way, Frank, how was it you were so sure Princeton was about to punt?” I inquired after we had exchanged greetings. “By means of the simplest and sur- est method in the world — watching the position of the players’ feet,” was his answer, and then, as Princeton had regained the ball, he proceeded to use the team to illustrate his method of prognosticating the coming plays. “Notice on this play that the feet of the Princeton left guard and tackle are pointing almost straight ahead, while on the other side of the line, the feet of the men are turned outward. Thé team has arranged itself in the same kick formgation, but with the feet of the gua. and tackle In position for a quick start and I'll gamble the play will be a rush through the left side of the line.” And a rush through the left side of the line it wa: “Here comes a punt,” Hinkey re- marked, as the Tiger team agaln took the kick formation. “See, the feet of every man on the line are turned out- ward.
