NAVAL ACADEMY
BUILDINGS FLAT,
MUCH CRITICISM
New Structures at An
napoliS Declared to Be
Lacking the Artistic.

ANNAPOLIS, Feb 23.-While II is
not denied that the new buildings which
are fast approaching completion at the
u. S. Naval Academy form a splendid
and dignified group of structures. well
adapted in many ways to the training Of
our future naval officers. It is clear that
there have been not a few errors In
plan and construction which detract in
a measure from their perfection.
Strong criticism of the general plans
has been made for the great tendency TO
fairness in the buildings. This is very
evident in Bancroft Han, the main build
ing OF the whole series and the quarters
of the midshipmen. The marine en-
cheering building is another noticeable
example. and it IS true in a lesser de-
gree OF the Academic building and the
smaller structures. Only the fine
chapel, with its stately dome, relieved
the mOnotonOus fairness.
As is to be expected in the largest and
most important building, the great num-
Der of defects in detail center in Ban
croft Han The drainage and plumbing
are unsatisfactory on account OF the low
level. and Il is almost impossible TO
keep the dining room sufficiently dry.
An admitted blCnder was made IN de-
voting the great building originally
known as the LIGHTHOUSE 70 its first pur-
pose. with a floor space Of 100 by sO(
feet, IL was entirely too large for its
work and il was renamed the Seaman
ship building. and the work OF that de-
partment carried out IN IL. II stiH had
vast idle space and It has been decided
to utilize flve-sixths OF It as a gymna-
stun. The alterations are now going
on at the expense Of $4,000 ana TIE
project Of a separate gymnasium build
ing has been abandoned.
