War Work Committee
Wants the Panthers
To Meet the Navy

ANNAPOLIS. Md, Nov 25.-The
united war work committee has asked
that the football teams of the Naval
Academy and the University of Pitts
burgh play for the benefit of the fund
either on November 80 or December
7, and Admiral Eberle, superintendent
of the Academy, has suggested that
the game be played at Annapolis
If it is arranged here an admission
charge will be made, the first time
such a thing has been done in the his
tory of athletics at the Academy. The
game would be sure to attract a great
crowd from Baltimore, Washington
and other nearby points.
The committee suggested that the
game be played in New York, but Ad-
miral Eberle is unwilling for the team
to leave Annapolis. There is per-
manent stand at the Naval Academy
grounds which seats 1900 and tenn
porary stands which will seat about
5000, while several thousand more
spectators could be given standing
room.
The football players will not break
training, but will rest a day or two
and resume practice with great zest if
another big game is arranged.
