Members of Board of Educa-
ton to Urge Appropriation
Through Commissioners.
COULD BE USED
AS DRILL GROUND
Erection Of Stadium In Potomac
Park Part of Plan
Proposed.

The Board OF Education will make a
determined effort to provide a public
athletic field and military ground in
Potomac Park.
II will be urged strongly that the
Commissioners include in their estimates
an appropriation for that purpose. They
will solicit the aid Of organizations and
citizens who are working for the same
cause.
This announcement was made today
by President w. V. Cox, OF the Board
Of Education.
As a preliminary step Mr.. Cox will
endeavor to arrange a conference with
Col. Spencer Cosby, in charge of pub
lie buildings and grounds, to select a
suitable site for the proposed field.
our plans will be just as comprehen-
sive as II seems possible TO put through, >
said Mr.. Cox today.
Stadium Is Favored
There should be in Potomac Park a
stadium Of concrete built after the order
OF the most modern structures Of its
kind. Of course. in size we could not
hope 10 equal those on Franklin Field or
at Michigan University. But the park
for Washington should be as modern as
IL can be made"
There is urgent need for such a field,
Mr.. Cox said. He pointed out that such
a need was not only felt by the puD-
lie school officials, but BY officers Of
the District National Guard and vari-
Gus amateur athletic organizations who
now had no place to hold public exlIi-
billions.
The interest of the board was aroused
by the demands Of the high school ca
diets for places TO give regimental re-
views and competitive drills, and by
the high school football. baseball. and
track teams for places to hold their
games" said Mr.. Cox.
This is one modern civic necessity
in which the Capital is sadly lacking
Mr.. Cox said. and I hope TO make q
determined effort during my admins
tratiOn 10 put IL through"

70 THE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS
OF Anne Arundel County
(COmmunicatedl

Now that the Congressional primary
is over and the Hon. J. Enos Ray has
been fairly nominated as the democratic
standard bearer in this district, and as
the majority shall rule is one of the
cardinal principles Of the democratic
party, he 10 entitled TO the earnest sup
port of every sincere democrat and par
ticularly those who participated in the
primary contest. 1t is dishonorable for
a man TO take part in primary meet
ing and then vote against the nominee,
simply because his favorite in the con-
test was defeated and cannot believe
there are many such in dear old Anne
Arundel. Mr.. Ray is mentally qualified
TO represent us in congress and is an
honest, straightforward democrat, and
as such, believes in the traditions, his
tory and principles Of the democratic
party and what more should any demo
cratic voter demand of his party's
candidate? 1t would be most mortify-
ing should the election be so close in
the district that the vote of Anne
Arundel County should decide it and
elect the republican candidate. 1t is
the duty, therefore, of every democrat
to turn out on the day of election,
Tuesday. November the 9Th. 1910, and
cast his vote for Mr.. Ray;
