TACKLED SOME BEEF
st, Johns PLAYED A Plueky Contest And
Held George Washington To A No
Score Game

Although greatly outweighed and
playing on a strange field, the lucky
st. Johns College aggregation held the
husky George Washington team down to
a no-score game at American League
Park, Washington on Saturday after
noon. The field was wet and soggy
seriously handicapping fast play and
causing many fumbles.
One of the prettiest plays of the
game was that of the st. Johns boys
when they gained % yards on a fake
forward pass, carrying the ball around
George Washington right end. Good
work by the back field. however, pre-
vented touchdown. Melville. of st.
Johns, attempted to punt and booted
the pigskin into the back of his team
mates. Otherwise he played a splendid
game for the Annapolis team, partic-
ularly on the defensive. George Wash
ington had difficulty handling punts,
and lost ground through their failure tc
retain the ball. At no time did George
Washington appear dangerous, while
the Annapolis boys were at all times
speedy ands quick to follow up their
advantages. A sloppy field slowed up
the backs to great extent and pre-.
vented fast playing.

ADVOCATE ROAD LOAN
Governor Crotbers Hears Big PIans-To
AK State Loan OF $4,000, 900 More.

Governor Crothers states that he
will recommend to the next Legisla-
ture another loan of SIS, 600, 600 to be
used to complete the system of State
roads now outlined.
Baltimore's share of the new loan,
he thinks. would be $1,000, 000, or
one-ffth of the total. Figures are
given to show that the money repre-
sented by the proposed new loan
would come largely from Baltimore.
The recommendation for the new
loan will bring before the Legisla.
ture the whole question of the roads,
the Roads Commission, the efficiency
or inefficiency of the commission and
the fairness of the proposition to
Baltimore.
Governor Crothers has said more
than once that the State road system
is to be constructed by money raised
from three classes of people-to
wit, those who drink whiskey and
beer, those who inherit fortunes and
those who ride in automobiles. His
meaning was that the money to pay
interest and sinking fund on the
5000, 900 loan was to come from the
high license in Baltimore city, from
the collateral inheritance tax and
from the automobile license.
The Constitution requires that
whenever a loan is created the Leg
islature must levy a tax sufficient to
pay annual interest and redeem the
principal within fifteen years. The
amount levied for the road loan in
1908 and 1909 was small. and while
a tax was actually collected it was
given to the public schools and the
money required for the road loan was
taken from the general treasury
presumably from the sources the
Governor indicated.
For 1911 a tax of 1-2 cents will
be levied for the road loan, for 1912
IL cents, and an additional one
half cent for the $1,000 900 highway
loan of 1910 for the Baltimore-An-
napolis boulevard. The tax for the
SIS, 900, 900 loan after 1912 will be 6
cents each year until maturity. A
tax of 6 cents will produce $3.50, 900
year according to the assessable
basis for 1910, which will be ample
to carry the 5000, 900 and pay it at
maturity.

A BEWITCHING CARMEN
Bizets Opera Given CIV AbOrn Grand
Opera Company Al The Colonial
Theatre

To see ourselves as others see Us
was the privilege of some in the au-
dience who, on Saturday night, heard
Bizet's opera Carmen" sung by the
Aborn English Grand Opera Company
at the Colonial Theatre.
Carmen, as a play, not an opera,
was given here a few years ago by
local amateurs, including many of the
society folk of town and Naval Acad.
envy, and Annapolis is quite familiar
with GARNER" for this, if no other
reason.
The Aborn Opera Company is COM
posed of good voices. The chorus.
both male and female, is we'll bal
anced, and there are few, if any,
strained voices in the cast. The
chorus is evenly balanced and it sings
in harmony and with tunefulness and
sweetness. The quintet of voices,
including Frasquita and Mercedes,
friends of Carmen, the smugglers
Dancairo and Remendado and Carmen
herself, was beautifully sung, and
was one of the gems of the evening.
Carmen is one of the most bewitch-
ing Carmens we have ever had the
pleasure of seeing and hearing sing.
She is of the typical brunette, Span
ish and gypsy beauty, type, flirtatious
devilish, bold and daring, and the ia
nous cigarette girl of stage and other
history, both wins and sings her way
into popular favor with the audience.
Miss Louise lie Baron is charming
and possesses a voice of wide range
and exquisite culture.
Domenico Russo, as Don Jose, was
acceptable, although not graceful.
He has a sweet tenor voice and his
high notes are very effective.
AS Escamillo, the toreador, George
Pickering was well cast, and his
song "The Tereador." did cause a
phlegmatic Annapolis audience to
enthuse, and give him an encore.
As the peasant girl, Micaela, Miss
Edith Helena, is dainty and sweet
and her beautiful voice rang out clear
and bell-like, with pleasing effect
Miss Helena also received round of
applause, and shared the honors
gracefully with Miss lie Baron, as
Carmen.
The Aborn Opera Company is good,
and is worthy the liberal patronage of
allmusic-lovlng people.

ARMY SWEPT LEHIGH
Cadets Storm Their Visitors AT Foo
ball

At West Point Saturday afternoon
the Army football team swept the LIE
high boys before it and showed
them under by score of % to 0. The
visitors never had a chance and never
threatened the Army goal. Because of
a wet field and drilling rain there
were many fumbles, the majority of
which were recovered by the cadets,
who were thus enabled on several oc-
casions to storm the visitors goal line
for points.
Brown was a star for the Army, and
both he and Dean thrilled the specta-
tors by spectacular runs. Hyatt, the
Army quarterback, handled the punts
in good shape, but Dean early in the
game fumbled considerably, although
the Lehigh ends were too slow to take
advantage, and the Army always re-
covered the ball.
Lehigh tried the forward pass only
twice. but used the delayed pass for
several good gains until the Army
solved it. Rouse, the Lebigh left end,
PLAYED a star game. The playing was
almost enirely in the visitors territory.

Midshipman Spiller Resigns NAVY Or
Account OF Sea Sickness

) Midshipman o. L. Spiller, of
Texas, is the latest embryo naval Off
Ger to give up the sea because it
doesn't agree with him.
Midshipman Spiller has rendered
his resignation on the ground that he
is habitually subject to seasickness,
and accordingly naval career has
lost all its charms for him. The ap-
plication was accepted Saturday by
Rear Admiral Nicholson, as Acting
Secretary, to become effective No

Midshipman Spiller graduated from
the Naval Academy in June, 1909.
In July he was assigned to the ar
m bred cruiser Maryland on the Pacific
coast, on which ship he has since re-
manned. He was appointed to the
Naval Academy from Texas, his ma
tive State, in May, 1905.
