NOT I TO 'MOVE Street Railway Officials Say They Will Not Take New Quarters Going Before Retiring Board Between ten and fifteen navy officers will shortly go before the retiring board for examination. This list includes officeis whom the medical officers decided were not in physical condition to take the last physical test. This does not indicate that all of these officers or in fact any of them, will be retired. Most of the officers who were unable to take the -teat have been paying attention to their physical conditions, and in all probability will be prepaied to take the examination when they appear before the board.

Taken as a whole the officers of the navy have made a remarkable showing in the physical tests. Fewer of them have asfr-ed to be excused than in any previous year.
