Commander Hawley of the United

in the clutches of a garrulous cabby who

quarterback yarns for the next year
Commander Hawley was graduated at
Annapolis in the class of '6S. and during
his thIrty-one years of active service has
visited every place on earth except the
north and south poles. v,

The new Hartford is to be used as
training ship, and will proceed from San
Francisco around the Horn to New York
