IN speaking Of Joe CaEtiIlon and his

lets loose this piece of language:
Mr.. ]. Cantillon arrived in town this
trip with more ready-to-wear athletes
than he can clothe at one time. Joe
landed with twenty-six. and two have
since reported. As he carries but eight
cen uniforms. there is a stringency in
the wardrobe department. While the
eighteen ere disporting on the grass, the
other ten, in plain clothes, mingIe with

isn't sure about anything. they are com

NAVY WILL PLAY
HARVARD ELEVEN
MiddieS' Schedule Announc-
ed Yesterday Hardest
in Years.

ANNAPOLIS, Aug. 2o.-Naval foot
ball authorities have completed the
schedule for the midshipmen's team for
the coming season. II includes twelve
games. all of which will be played on
the home grounds, with the exception
Of the Army game. which viii be played
on Franklin field, Philadelphia, on No
vember 90
The most important change in the
schedule is the substitution Of a game
with Harvard for the annual Princeton
match The midshipmen play the Grim
son on october 19. a date that has here
tofore been given to the Tigers. Wander
bilt. one of the strongest Southern
teams, will be met for the first time.
West Virginia is another new opponent
for the middies.
The Navy still hopes to arrange a
game with Princeton, but there seems
little chance for the meeting. Swarth-
more and Pennsylvania State have No
+ vember dates, while Lafayette, after
lapse Of several years. will meet the
/ middies in October.
/ The schedule follows:
! October 2-Navy vs. Western Mary
land
/ October 6--Navy VS.. Dickinson.
/ October 9-Navy VS.. Maryland Agri-
/ cultural College
! October 12-Navy VS.. Vanderbilt.
! october 16-Navy vs.. st. Johns.

This is considered the hardest schedule

Negotiations were carried on this wear
with Princeton and the University OF
Pennsylvania, as well as the colleges
with which games were arranged. These
t~o universities were unwilling TO take
the trip to Annapolis and meet a team
