Capt. NaylOr of Fort Leaven-
worth Lectures on Battle
of Gettysburg.

The Wentworth cadets, faculty
and friends of the Academy had
an unusual treat on Monday
morning in hearing Capt. w. X.
Naylor of the faculty of the
staff College at Fort Leaven-
worth, Kansas, deliver an ad-
dress with steroptican views on
the battle of Gettysburg. AL
though Captain Naylor talked
for nearly two hours, his au-
dience sat motionless during the
entire lecture.
He first introduced all the
Generals who took part in the
battle, showing excellent photo
graphs of each and explaining
just what part each took in the
world famous engagement. Fol
lowing this came a series of map
slides showing the movements
of the opposing forces which led
up to the encounter. Before
bringing the forces in contact
Capt. Naylor showed a series of
very interesting views he him
self took of the battle field.
These views well illustrated the
topography of the vicinity and
the strategical points.
The operations and move
ments of the opposing armies in
the battle were next shown with
great clearness. The lecturer
criticised the work of both for
ces from a strategical and tao
tical point of view showing
clearly where mistakes were
made and where good general
ship and foresight were in evi-
dence. His criticism was, of
course, thoroughly unbiased.
Capt. Naylor closed with a few
brief remarks on the advan.
tages Of preparedness and Of
} military training.
, The cadets feel that they were
indeed fortunate in hearing a
lecture of such interest and in
structiveness,

Hits.
KEMPER SCORED FIRST
But w. NJ. A. Came from Behind

Took Lead in Eighth.

The members of the baseball
team departed Friday morning
for Boonville, where they match
ed their wares on the diamond
against their old rivals, Kem-

turned the next morning bear
ing the good tidings of an SO
victory, The account of the
game, as brought back was about
as follows:
Kemper took an early lead,
scoring five runs in the second
inning. This lead gave Kem-
per quite an advantage, but
Wentworth frightened up and
fought and won an uphill bat
tie. Collins pitching for Went
worth, from then on pitched air
tight ball, but his teammates
for five inning were unable to
pound out any runs for him.
The Red and White attack,
however, began in the sixth and
continued throughout the sew
enth. The slow ball of Cen
nings, Kemper's pitcher, ceased
to make the batters swing Wild
ly and the slaughter was on. In
the sixth three runs were driven
out and the same number were
made in the following inning,
which put the Wentworth boys
ahead by one run. The eighth
was scoreless. The ninth, how
ever, was full of action and the
bombardment was resumed, re-
sulting in two more runs. Kem-
per too scored in this inning, but
itw as only one run ant not
enough to do her any good. Furr

honors, each collecting three
hits, although the foramr batted
only four times, while the latter
made five trips to the plate.
Amos was credited with a pair
of singles.
Collins yielded seven hits,
struck out thirteen batsmen, and

On Saturday April Is the
Wentworth track team met the

On Saturday, contrary to P.

considerable rain. All events ex-
cept the half mile relay, how

that the Wyandotte athletes pre-
ferred forfeiting.

the men have been putting in
under the tutelage of Capt.

good advantage on Saturday.
