MIDDIEs. 10: PENN.


At Annapolis yesterday the Naval
Cadets defeated Pennsylvania 10 10 in
a game that was well played from the
naval standpoint. Ii was an utter ruut
for the Quskers, who did not show any
thing like good form. The midd.es play
ed rings around them.
Pennsylvania tale OF defeat Is a woIul
one TO tell. FumOling was one cause and
more general one is that they did not
play hard enough. especially in the see
ond half. Captain Gardiner was unable ~
line up because OF injuries received in
the first period.
Dale's tumble OF punt and Carpenters
capture OF the ball on Pennsylyania's 10
yard line was the direct cause OF the
middies' touchdown. Then Pennsylvania
took a hustle and drove the cadets down
the field TO their 15-yard line.
Pennsylvania's offensive work was
clever. but az the ball neared the goal
line the middies held the advancing foe.
Pennsylvania was forced 10 punt and
Smith got the bau on the navy's three
yard line. the navy punted, and the ball
went 10 Pennsylvania. out of bounds. on
the navy's 25-yard line.
PENNSYLVANIA began another attack Ben
nett went over for touchdown. Gardi-
ner kicked the goal. and the score stood
6 10 5. for McNair failed I'm his attempt
at a goal.
In the second half Pennsylvania did
not shine as she did in the first. Down
the field the cadets took the ball TO
Pennsylvania's 10-yard line. on the next
play. Quarterback Smith was forced in
front OF the line before the ball was In
play and Pennsylvania was given the ball.

against the Quakers.

GOOD ROADS LAW.

Because Legislative representatives
were not instructed by their people
or did not know their sentiments
in respect to good roadside first
good roads bill failed to pass the
Legislature. A second has been in
PRODUCED in the Legislature, and will
probably be passed by that body. We
do not like this later measure very
much-though it is better than
nothing. Instead of putting the
convicts at the disposal of the
counties for road-making purposes
1T will utilize them to crush rock for
road material. Three stations-one
in Tidewater, one in Piedmont and
the other in the Valley-will be es-
tablished for this purpose, and the
counties and cities will be sold the
crushed stone at actual cost. This
scheme will work to the advantage
OF some and the disadvantage of
others. 1t is a financial iinpossibility
for many of the counties in Underwater
to macadamize their sand and dirt
roads-yes, even were the crushed
rock given them for the hauling
away. The western part of the State
can and does use rock, as it requires
comparatively little of it to fix their
already hard road beds. The cities
can afford to use the macadam, and
will be glad of the opportunity under
the proposed plan to get the material
cheap.
What we want is the opportunity
for convict labor to work on our roads
with such material as we are able 10
use. We cannot, to any great extent,
take advantage of the offer OF material
such as will be turned out by the
proposed stations. Such a system
as contemplated will be to the adyan-
tage of wealthy counties and cities
and to the detriment of the poorer
ones.
