Once called the Athens of America,
Annapolis today more strongly re-
sembles Pompeii. She is practical
ly deserted city.
There are a few persons left in
the old town, but if tickets to the
Army-Navy game on Franklin Field,
Philadelphia, this afternoon were as
easily procurable as railroad tickets
between the Ancient City by the
Severn and the Quaker city on the
Delaware, there would not be cor
poral's guard left in the town. As it
Is there is possibly between two and
three thousand persons out of the
towns population of 1900, who
have moved to Philadelphia for the
day.
Many of these went yesterday to
avoid the rush of the special trains,
which started to puff and pull and
draw out of the station at an early
hour this morning.
The young future admirals who
will yell themselves hoarse in encour-
agement of their valient warriors
this afternoon, were the first to get
away. At tbs they formed in two
battalions in front of Bancroft Hall
at the Naval Academy. Commanded
by Lieut.. G. w. Steele and led by the
Naval Academy Band, gaily playing
the old victory song, the Anchors
Aweigh," they proceeded into An
napolis and up College avenue 70 the
station.
At Bladen street the first battal-
ion. commanded by Lieut.. J. NJ.
Enochs, turned 70 the rignt and
marched to It's waiting Baltimore &
Ohio special train. The second bat
talon, in charge Of Lieuts. Steele
and Poteet, continued 60 the West
street station Of the Washington.
Baltimore and Annapolis Electric
Line, where It's Pennsylvania special
was waiting.
No time was lost in entraining.
Each MILDLY carried a blue ard gold
megaphone 70 help drown the Army's
noise and hurl with greater force the
old Navy yells across Franklin Field
this afternoon. Every MILDLY also
carried big blue and gold pennant,
with an anchor and a star embla-
zoned thereon. On the Pennsylvania
train was Pullman or two for Off
GERS. The bigger part of the Navy
contingent left on the next train fol-
lowing the MILDLY special over the
two roads. My lady fair was there
in all of her glory. Between excited
chatter over the game, and worry
some fussing at glad gown she
fervently thanked the weather man
for clear skies and prayed that the
few clouds might not thicken up and
bring on rain. The big golden chrys-
anthemums on many blue gown
would only bloom the more with rain
drops on it, but what If that Merry
Widow chapeau should get damp.
Oh, Heaven forbid!
Other trains followed over each
line and each was well filed. Thoss

period ended with the ball in Navy's
possession in midfield.
When the fourth period opened
Hamilton was sent back into the
game in Elmer's place; Clay made
two yards on the first play; Navy
punted to Army's 15-yard line; Hyatt

and the leather went to Navy.
Dalton carried the leather to Army's
27-yard line by mighty dash through
left tackle; Rodes made one yard

more through left guard; from the
30-yard line Dalton booted the pigskin
squarely over the bar. Score,

line and Clay carried it back 20
yards. Navy made four yards
through center. Navy penalized Is

Gilchrist was hurt, delaying the
game.
Play was resumed, Gilchrist re-
naming in the game. Dalton punted
to Army's 30.yard line and Hyatt
was downed without gain. Follow
ing an exchange of punts, Dalton re-
covered Deans onside kick on Army's
45-yard line. Dalton was hurt, but

Rivals Arrayed To-Day Franklin Field

Of the towns citizens who remained
behind are few and far between, but
they are loyal to the Navy even If
they did not get coveted pasteboard
to admit them to Franklin Field.
There is plenty of blue and gold
shown on coat lapels in Annapolis
even yet.
Down at the Naval Academy bare
corporal's guard of officers remained
behind to keep the official side of the
work there going. In Bancroft Hall
there were one or two unfortunate
youths who were restricted and could
not attend the big game, and at the
Naval Hospital and sin the Midship-
mems sick bay were a few others.
About the homes of the officers in
Sampson, Upshur and Rodgers Row
there was utter stiffness, however.
Out in front of Upshur Row, deep in
the middle Of the big gridiron, were
a bunch Of Navy Jrs" who were TOO
young to go to the game, but who
nevertheless ase footballists Of no
mean calibre and who some time in
the future hope to tread the golden
path Of today's Navy players.
II was shortly after ] 80 when
the persons who remained in Annap-
oils began to gather about The Cap
ital Office. When the announcement
that Navy had come on the field
was flashed over the leased wire
between this Office and the press
stand on Franklin Field, there was
a loyal h00rah. From that time on

show their unquestionable loyalty to
their sturdy warriors.
When the last West Pointer had
taken his seat in the South stand the
great tiers across the gridiron burst
into roar as the Navy's beloved
lads swung out into the open to
the inspiring strains of the old bat
tie hymn, esAnchors Aweigh." As
they reached midfied they were given
a rousing cheer by their gray-coated
rivals. This the Middies returned
with right good will when they had
taken their seats in the big enclosure
midway of the North stand.
'tBILLY' GETS AHEAD OF MULE.
Billy. diked in all the glory of
his blue and gold blanket put one
across on the Army mule by reaching
the scene of the fray first. That was
to be expected, and he was given a
wild reception due to his rank as the
sailor mascot.
ARMY FIRST ON FIELD.
The Army squad was first on the
field and got a glorious reception as
they trotted cut in groups of two.
The Navy entered almost immediate
ly behind them. To describe the re-
ception that greeted them would be
almost impossible. Tie North stand
simply went into an uproar and gray
haired Adnirals tossed their caps
skyward.
ARMY GETS THE WIND
After the teams went through
the usual preliminaries, the rival
captains were called to the centre
of the field by the officials for the
toss of the coin. The Army won
the toss and elected to defend the
West goal with the wind at their
backs.

SECOND HALF

The Navy already had the better
of the game thus far, as is indicated
by the fact that the Middies for the
most part kept play confined to the
Soldiers territory. Three times they
had chances to try for field goals,
while not once did the Pointers have
the leather at distance to make a
like attempt.
The two teams started the second
half with no changes in the lineup
and Army kicked off to Navy's 40
yard line and Brown carried it fif--
teen yards. Dalton punted on the
first lineup, the Soldiers getting the
ball on their 45-yard line, and
Hyatt, on quick lineup, ran around
left end for short gain. Army
punted to Navy's 20 yard line; Dalton
at once returned the kick to midfield,
where Brown and Merring threw
Hyatt in his tricks; Hyatt punted out
side on Navy's 29-yard line.
Dalton punted to Brown, of Army,
who signaled free catch on Navy's
45-yard line; Hyatt tried for goal,
but the hall sailed wide of the post !;
Navy put the ball in play on her 25-
yard line; Army was penalized
yards for oif-side; Soweli clipped off
FIVE yards on a trick play through
tackle; Dalton punted to midfeld,
where Gilchrist recovered Deans
tumble.
NAvY's SMASHING ATTACK
Rodes made five yards through
right tackle; Dalton made five more
through the other tackle; Dalton then
dove through right tackle for four
yards, and Sowell made it first down
through center. Clay added four
through left guard, and Dalton
clipped three in the same place. A
forward pass from a kick forma-
tion fooled Army completely and
Navy had the ball on the Cadets
15-yard line. Dalton put it five
yards closer when be smashed
through left guard. The same play
er added three more yards through

liantly, however, and from this point
Dalton once more failed at field
goal; Army tried an on-side kick;
Wright recovered the ball in Army's
27-yard line; Elmer took Hamilton's
place at left end; Dalton was thrown
for a loss.
Dalton tried another placement
goal and failed. Army put the ball in

that they finished the season of
1910 with an unsmirched record.
None of their opponents during
the season suceeedetN4 in invading
their goal line, nor were they
scored against at all. Though not
many formidable teams were met,
the record thus established will go
down into Naval Academy athletic
traditions as indeed remarkable.
CROWD EARLYSoN SCENE.
Blowing across the field from the
northwest corner of the gridiron a
piping breeze greatly hampered the
punters of both teams and piled up a
Ieaden gray cloud over the east stand.
Under foot the players could not
have wished for better conditions.
Since the Penn-Cornell game Thurs
day the great broad field had been
covered deeply with straw and this
was raked off this morning. A firm
gridiron-ideal for speedy work was
revealed. 1t was not later than IL
O'Clock when the advance guard of
the great throng began to wind its
way through the gate and settled down
about the great oval to await the
opening of the big show.
The absence of President Taft
and other stellar lights of official
life had little effect, for the lesser
stars of ofiicialdom were there a
plenty. The first of these VITO ar
rived on the field was Commander
r. E. Coontz, commandant of Mid
shipmen, and the official represen-
tative of the Academy. Another
figure picked out quickly BY the
hnnapolitans was the sturdy F. +.
King, father of Navy's i'll captain.
The West Point Cadets were first
on the field. The dough boys formed
on Spruce street shortly before 80
and entered from the East corner,
parading across the field, headed by
their khaki garbed military band.
The word for them to break ranks
had not been given when the Navy
hosts spied Zimmerman at the en-
trance of the West end of the field
Back of him was his band, over the
shoulders of which could be seen the
impatient Middies, waiting their.

II Is q curious fact that the people
most celebrated for love of country
should In a manner be without a Ian
guage-that is, mother tongue. The
Swiss have three official languages
German, French and Italian. About
three-fourths of the population OF the
mountain confederation speak Ger
man, while the remainder divide four
other languages among them, chiefly
French and Italian, these languages
being found, as a rule. in districts In
close proximity to the countries where
In those languages are the principal
tongue. In Switzerland documents and
notices are printed in both the French
and German languages. In the nation

nations Of the president are translated
by an official interpreter and furnished
to the press in both languages.-New
