Radical Changes Sug-

approval OF the Navy Department.
Sea-GOing Officers Wanted.
The board recommends that the six
departments be consolidated into three:
that more sea-golng officers be placed in
responsible positions in the faculty; that
more practical and less theoretical
knowledge be pounded into the heads
OF the midshipmen: that less rhetoric
and literature and more practical knowi-
edge OF handling men and ships be
taught; that no more graduations be
made under four years; that the study
OF electricity as a necessity to handling
guns and turret mechanism be declared
paramount to engineering. and a special
department be created for this study
alone; that the present textbooks IN
mathematics are obsolete and new books
should be written; that a department of
physical training should be established:
that the civil authorities OF the State
OF Maryland and. city OF Annapolis be
prevailed upon To extend better moral
protection over the average 800 boys
who enter the Academy from the train
ing schools in the Maryland capital,

KEMP EN- ROUTE
TOFOREIGN PORT.
LATEST THEORY
Former Chief Clerk of
Police Depar tine mt
Thought to Be in
South America.

A clue was obtained by the police
today which leads to the belief that ].
Arthur Kemp, the alleged defaulting
chief clerk of the Police Department.
is on his way to South America In
spector Boardman was informed this
morning that a man answering the de-
scription OF the missing clerk was hang
ing around the water front in Balti-
more last Wednesday--th day he board
ed n Baltimore and Ohio train for that
city.
This man was very nervous and ex-
cited, and made inquiries at the offices
of two or three steamship companies.
1t is said that he was seen boarding a
''fruiter'' bound for South America.
The police, however, feel certain that
Kemp went to Philadelphia after stop
ping an hour or two in Baltimore. That
is as far as the police have been able
TO trace him. 1t is possible that he
might have returned to the Monumental
City and engaged passage on one Of the
ships that sail daily for South American
ports.
Edwin 3. Hesse. the newly appointed
chief clerk, took the oath of office yes
terday afternoon, and this morning as
sumed his official duties. The work of
examining Kemp's accounts is still be-
ing pursued. and it is expected the exact
amount of the shortage will be known
in a few days.
