LESS DRILLING.
Other Forms Of Physical Exercise are
Deemed Best for Midshipmen.

Washington, May 3.-Some radical
changes i'm the methods of physician
training of midshipmen, generally IN
the lines of a reduction of that sort
of work which develops star performers
who need the training least of ALL is
suggested by the special board de-
tailed by the superintendent of the Ma
val Academy.
The board is of the impression that
real advantage would be gained If ply
steal exercises were increased with OPP
portunity to that end by reduction OF
some other work, such as drilling.
1t is evident. it is suggested that the
policy of the Naval Academy will be
that of consistent and compulsory ply
steal exercise along lines individually
prescribed and the hope is expressed
by those interested to extend the same
system to the naval training stations
and t. adopt it ultimately as re-
iuiremcnt aboard ships for both offi
GERS ard men.
