SUBMARINES LEAVE
FOR HAWAII
Lieut.. F. T. Chew in Command
of the ks. 2,2OO Miles With
ont Renlenishinr Snnnlies.

out Replenishing Supplies.
-Four lieutenants of the United
States Navy who were granted
permission by the Navy Depart
ment to attempt a voyage of
1900 miles from San Francisco
to Hawaii, sailed Sunday from
San Francisco. The flotilla of
four undersea craft is accom-
panied by the cruiser Maryland,
naval collier Nanshau, tug Iro-
quois and torpedo boat destroyer
Lawrence.
The attempt of these daring
young officers to establish a
record in the United States Navy
for long distance travel unaided
is of especial interest to the peo-
pie Of Lexington, as one Of the
submarines is commanded by
Lieut.. Frank 7. Chew, formerly
of this city. Lieut.. Chew is COM
manding the K-3, and on this
trip, which will take opprOxi-
mately two weeks, he will have
the pleasure of the bridge twen-
ty four hours out of every
thirty-six.
This type of boat is 100 feet
long over all, seventeen feet in
the beam and of 500 tons dis
placement. The submarines will
win endeavor to make the long
run unaided, with an unreplen-
ished supply of fuel oil and with
out outside aid to their commits
saries. For approximately two
weeks the ships company of
twenty-five officers and men
aboard each submarine will live
in the cramped, restricted quar-
ters of the little underwater
boats, with no exercise save an
occasional turn on the small sea-
swept deck when the weather
permits.

Back Broken by Failing Dirt

Back Broken by Falling Dirt.
Tuesday morning about nine
o'clock, while Frank Renick and
Tom Workup, both colored, were
busy excavating under Morrison
& Son'slstore, Renick was caught
under some falling dirt and bad
ly injured. He was cutting un-
derneath and carried the tunnel
too far when the dirt gave way
and completely buried him.
Workup gave the alarm and
commenced digging, and with
the help of others, Renick was
soon rescued. His injuries may
prove fatal as it is thought that
his back was broken.

In the Wentworth line Murphy
and Lewis showed most talent at
hard tackling, although all the
line worked hard. In the back
field Suppes was responsible for
some spectacular gains while
Fulbright, Minor and Sandford
did some excellent work.
Coach Wikoff is gratifed at the
spirit shown by his men and he
believes that next Saturdays
game will bring forth a much
better brand Of football.

FIRST GAME TO OPPONENTS
ChillicOthe Business College De-
feats Wentworth Ia to 8.

feats Wentworth Ia to 8.
In the first game of the season
with another school Wentworth
was defeated in a bitterly con-
tested game. The Chillicothians.
were a heavy and experienced
crowd and the greenness of the
cadet team enabled them to work
many forward passes and other
plays which might have been
stopped later in the season.
In the first quarter Coach Wi
koff's team kept the ball in the
enemy's territory most of the
time. The enthusiastic rooters
rose to their feet several times
in expectation of a touchdown.
The only score made, however,
came as a result of Minick's sec
ond attempt at a drop kick. The
ball was booted from the 25 yard
line and went squarely between
the posts.
In the second quarter, Chilli
cothe opened up the air route
and were successful in making
many substantial gains on for
ward passes. Their first touch
down, however, was an almost
direct result of a fumbled at
tempt at a punt on the fourth
down by Wentworth, which gave
the visitors the ball on Went
worth's fifteen yard line. The
Chillicothians pushed the ball
over by line plunges and end
runs. This success seemed for
a time to bewilder the cadets and
to stimulate the visitors. The
second touchdown came as a re-
suit of series Of line plunges
end runs, and more forward
passes.
In the second half the cadets
came back with the true
Wentworth spirit and scrappeC
with more determination thar
at any time in the first half. The
visitors were none the less an
xious, and throughout the thirC
quarter the ball see-sawed bacl
and fourth, neither side scoring
The fourth quarter was marked
by still harder fighting on botl
sides but the cadets triumpheC
by scoring their only touchdown
in the last four minutes of play
For the visitors, the line play

did excellent work at carryin,

much ground for his team. Har
tell at quarter showed goo,

RUDDERS OF F:2
BADLY SMASHED
BY COLLISION
Submarine is Due for Longer
Time in Drydock Than AntiCi-
pated; F-3 in Good Shape

So badly damaged is the subma
rine F-2, as the result of having been
rammed by the U. s. S. Supply Sep
tember 5, that she will have to re-
main in drydock a much longer time
than was anticipated while heT
steering and diving rudders are re-
moved and taken to Pearl Harbor to
be Strengthened out.
Today's examination of the F-2 and
F-3 in the Inter-Island drydock, into
which the two under-Sea sister craft
of the illfated "A were floated this
morning, showed the F-3 to have sus-
tained less damage than was at first
believed, while the contrary was the
case as concerns the F-2.
Damage to the F-3 is not SO bad
as we thought" said Lieut.. K. B. Crit

able to finish repairs on her in three
