fort to clear up the objections

about three weeks ago his nomina-

that the only thing notiing up his
confirmation is a telegram from some
perconc in Bradentown who request

nomination until they could hle

BROWN MAY NOT Be
IN NAVY'S LINEUP
Middies' Coaches May Save Big
Guard, Who Has a Slightly
Injured Ankle.

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Oct 23-Big John
Brown, right guard and distinctly the
star Of the Naval Academy team, is
likely to be out Of the lineup when the
Navy team meets the Maryland Agricul-
tural eleven On Saturday. Brown re-
ceived a slightly sprained ankle in the
game against Dickinson on Saturday
last, and he has not rounded into shape
as promptly as expected. He has not
been in football clothes this week, and,
although he could probably be bandaged
up and put in the game if absolutely
necessary, it is likely that he will be
allowed to rest until entirely well. He
is far too valuable a man to have any
chances taken of his not being able to
play against the Army. In fact, Brown
has been named by many of the ex-
perts as an all-Amer1can player for each
of the last three seasons. He is a huge
fellow, Weighing about rs pounds, and
as active as cat. Besides. he is a re-
liable placement kicker, and has scored
many points for the Navy team in this
way.
Browns place will be taken by Tex
Vaughan, a strong, lively player, but
not Browns equal as an all round man.
Vaughan weighs about 100 pounds, and
has a keen eye for the ball, very fire.
blocking a kick. recovering a tumble or
intercepting one of his opponents for

Brown, the Agriculturists must be pre-
pared to meet the full strength of the
heaviest and most experienced eleven
the Naval Academy has had in its his
tory.
Yesterday was the first time this week
the coaches have allowed the regulars
TO meet the scrub under conditions
similar to that of a game. The players
went at each other like bulldogs un-
leashed, and the liveliest session of the
season was the result. McReavey. the
big, rangy halfback, continued his good
work, and the coaches were also much
pleased with the showing of Failing,
another big fellow. who was substituted
for McReayey later in the game. The
substitutes behind the line are round
ing to in good shape, and the coaches
are much relieved as there was some
scarcity of good men to relieve the
regulars couple of weeks ago.
