MIDDIES WORK SECRETLY.
Coaches EndeavOring To Strengthen
Offensive Play Of Navy Eleven.

Che practice of the Naval Acad-
emy football squad yesterday after
noon took place on a remote part of
the field and was as nearly secret as
pc ssible.
There was no playing under regu-
lar game conditions, but numerous
formations were tried with opposing
players, so that the team men got a
considerable amount of work. The
coaches are making a special effort
to develop a more varied game and
are trying out end runs and vario Is
plays based on the forward pass.
With the exception of left end and
quarterback there is not much doubt
at present about the filling of posi-
tions in the lineup, barring accident.
There are several candidates for
quarter, and both Overesch and In
gram are fighting it out for the place
on end, with the chances about equal.
Both were used part of the time
yeste rday afternoon.

CLOSING OF BRIDGE
AROUSES CITIZENS
Meantime Academy Officials De-
cline to Help Matters.
HOLD CONFERENCE TODAY.
Commissioner Walton and Frank DuvalI
Get No Encouragement From
Superintendent Gibbons.

Officials of the Naval Academy to-
day made it known that under no cir
cumstance would they permit of the
opening of the lower gate in the Ok
lahoma section of the Academy
grounds, if such request should be
made in view of the pending Difficult
ties over the College creek bridge.
As told in last nights Capitol, the
County Commissioners have directed
the closing of the bridge to traffic on
and after Occober .22, because the
War Department has refused to grant
an extension of time in order to COM
ply with the regulations of having
40-foot draw span, and furthermore
because the county feels unwilling to
bear the expense that would be in
Cured the reby, inasmuch as the State
Roads Commission will eventually be
compelled to take over the structure
as part of the State boulevard from
Baltimore to Annap Ills, as provided
by law.
A multitude of protests have been
lodged with the County Commission
ere since that action, looking to clos
ing the bridge to traffic entirely.
The county officials are exerting every
effort possible to overcome the stu
alton. Today Mr.. James A. Walton,
commissioner of Annapolis, and Mr..
Frank M. Duvall, a resident of near
ST. Margaret's composed committee
that waited upon the naval officials.
The object of their mission was to
learn that if 1t should be found neces-
sary, would the Academy authori-
ties consen to open the King George
street gate, and issue passes to light
vehicles and pedestrians to pass
through the naval reservation in or
der to get to the city and return.
Messrs. Walton and Duvall discussed
the matter at some length with
Commander j.. K. P Pringle, officer
in charge of buildings and grounds.
and his assistant, Lieut.. Commander
r. G. Berry.
After the proposition had been
laid before them, the two officers
conferred with Superintendent j. H.
Gibbons, who, ii is stated, said that
he would decline to consent to the
request, if made.
1t is understood that the matter
will again be carried before the
War Department at Washington to
secure an extension of time.

AND MARYLAND GAZETTE
MADE ANOTHER GREAT HIT.
MyrkIe- Harder Company Again
PIeases Large Audience at The
Colonial Theatre.

AS the days Tor rather nights go
by the Myrkle- Harder c jmpany play
ing a weeks engageme nj at the Colo
nial Theatre continues to grow in
popular favor. Last night comedy
worth while, The Girl in Wait
ing" was presented.
One thing can be said of all the
Myrkle- Harder plays, they are clean.
wholesome and altogether devoid Of
anything coarse, vulgar or unrefined.
Last nights play was clean-cut,
wholesome comedy, full OF fun, and
interest, as well. Miss Myrkle, in
the title role, was sweet, dainty and
winsome, and the step from the char
aeter of pathos and emotion of the
night previous, to the character of
the comedienne, gave ample scope for
display of this young actress versa
tility.
Mr.. Bertin, as George Hemmings,
the man who believed the reforma-
tion of criminals his duty in life, fill
ed a part unlike anything he has
previously attempted, but rose to the
emergency and was excellent at all
times. Mr.. Dempsey again did good
work and indeed all the cast de-
serve commendation.
1t was a great comedy we'll pre-
sented by capable company at pop
ular prices, and the Colonial Theatre
management is to be congratulated
on furnishing such good entertain
ment to the public this week at
prices within the reach of every
body.

is under the efficient management of
Mrs. Henry c. Campbell.
Instead OF the conventional fish
pond,a beautiful pine tree laden with
gifts for children attracts the little
ones with its air of mystery and sur
prises. This is the design Of Miss
Mary Adelaide Moss, who is also the
dispenser of the gifts. Tonight is
the last night of the supper.

The scenes Of drunkenness on
the streets of Delaware City last
Saturday night were disgraceful
beyond description. Soldiers and
civilians, white and colored, in
state of intoxication, presented a
spectacle which should bring the
blush of shame to the cheeks of
every respectable resident of the
town. These scenes are becoming
so frequent that they call for i'm
mediate action ON the part of the
proper authorities and of the COM
munity in general. No arrests are
made, nothing is done to prevent
this lawlessness and vice. Habit
ual drunkards and minors are
getting Intoxicating drinks-some,
where, and the law is being
violated with impunity. The time
has come for the law abiding
citizens OF Delaware City to arouse
themselves from their apparent
apathy and stamp this thing out.
The good people of the town must
get together aud invoke the males
ty of the law for the punishment
of those who disturb the peace of
the community and make it unsafe
for decent people to be on the street
when the bars disgorge the votaries
of Bacchus. An efficient organi.
cation for the enforcement of law
is the demand of the hour. With
our numerous Churches it should
not be difficult matter to find
those who will take the RESPONSE
bility of this unpleasant, though
necessary obligation. This should
be attended to without further
delay.

eral ownership and control of wire
communications has not been dis
closed.
/" The expense involved in the
purchase of privately owned tele-
graph lines would be staggering.
But means out of the monetary
embarrassment seems to have been
suggested to those who favor COVER.
nment ownership by the idea that
the government, through the ex-
tension Of the parcel post system,
may acquire the express business
of the country through furnishing
competition which the private
companies will not be able to meet.
If the government is able to get all
the express business oh taking of
the weight limit of the parcel post
and making rates with which the
express companies cannot compete,
why should not the government
get control of wire communications
by acquiring and utilizing long
distance telephone lines to COM
pete with the telegraph companies

ments formed part of long special

New York Times early in October:
Notwithstanding efforts at pro
found secrecy, it has become known
here that the Wilson admins.
tration is engaged in preparing the
groundwork for legislation looking
toward government ownership Of
the telegraph lines of the country
The policy, it is said, is intended
to be more far-reaching in its effect
and to include Federal ownership
of all the wire systems of the coun.
try, if the policy ever is carried
into effect. Just how and when
