ting, the Nidshipnen won from the North
Carolina Agricultural and Mechanical
College team by the decisive score of z
to / this afternoon.
The game went only six innings. be-
cause the visitors had TO make train con-
nectious. As in yesterdays game with
Randolph the Afiddies had "a little
batting fest in the opening inning and.
aided by the unsteady work of the op-
posing twirler. they brought in enough
runs TO win. In that inning, Sexton gave
two passes, which. with four successive
singles, resulted in four tallies. Sexton
made such a weak showing on the rub
ber that he was shifted 10 center field and
Harris took the box and pitched steadily.
although the locals scored one in the
third and two more In the sixth. The
visitors could not bat when hits were
most needed. and twice they had the
bases filed. but succeeding batsmen were
retired on easy grounders OF pop flies.

"WiddieS' and Tackles.

Capt. Charles J. Badger L. 5. n, the
next superintendent Of the Naval Acad-
envy. suggests that midshipmen should
not suffer the iudignity Of being called
"middies." Similar objections, in other
times. have been made 10 the designation
of enlisted men as 'jackies.' instead Of
the more dignifed appellation Of blue
jackets" It is a habit of many news
papers and people 10 use these short cuts
in nomenclature. without thought that
they carry with them any disrespect for
the young men who are being trained for
the commissioned grades in the navy. OF
those Of the enlisted force.
u would be difficult TO change this habit.
which IS now pretty well formed. but il
may be mentioned IN passing. that the
newspapers and the people who call
midshipmcn "middies" and bluejackets
tackles" undoubtedly have absorbed
those titles from naval officers them
selves. many Of whom employ the terms
with an affection which deprives the OBJ
jects Of them Of no respect Il hardly
can be expected that people outside the
service viii stick 70 the austerer titles
when a naval officer. who may well be
a guide and an example. uses the famu-
lar vernacular. II is largely a question
of getting started IN the right way. but
once started. right or wrong. il is next
10 impossible 20 change a popular habit
Of speech.
