CADETS CRIPPLED
WITH BIG GAME
ON FOR SATURDAY
Local Eleven To Journey To
Chestertown For Annual
Fray With Rivals
FOR TRIP BY STEAMER

In the very beginning of the season
the jinx appears to have settled him
self to roost for a while with the
eleven of st. Johns, for series of
accidents have disabled enough mem
bers of the squad to give rather a
blush outlook for the first game of
the season with Washington College,
Chestertown.
This setback Is viewed with partic-
ular regret by the college men and
hackers of the team in view of the
fact that the first game is one that
will figure in the State championship
race. IT. will take place at Chester
town Saturday.
Last weekend the game scheduled
with Virginia Military Institute was
called off no account of the numbe!
of men on the team who were broken
up. The latest accident came yester-
day when Athey, one of the heaviest
men on the team and big prospect
as tackle, broke his collar bone He
will be out for the balance of the sea-
son. Besides this loss, Brown has a
broken hand; Kirkpatrick and Kelso
have bad ankles, and Monkey has a
sprained shoulder. Batty, star tackle
of the past two seasons, Holland and
Voelcher, old backfielders, were pre-
vented by old injuries from starting
the season.
According to the custom OF the
cadets, the entire student body of ST.
Johns will go to Chestertown to see
the game on Saturday with Washing
ton College. For this purpose the
steamer Susquehanna has been char
tered and plans made for the accom-
mediation OF the cadets and all who
wish to make the trip with them. The
boat with its party of football fans
will be equipped for an enjoyable pas
sage across the bay. Inla's orchestra,
of Baltimore, which furnished music
for the college hops last season, has
been engaged to supply music for
dancing on the boat both going and
returning
The cadets have left nothing undone
to insure the pleasure of the trip, and
many Annapolitans have declared
their intention of accompanying the
team.
An advertisement of the excursion
appears elsewhere in this issue of

Admiral Scales Says Haz-
ing Will Not Be
Tolerated

Concerning the alleged eXis.
tence of haxing mt the Naval
Academy. Rear-Admiral A. II.
Scales, Superintendent, this
morning made the following
statement:
SThere are no secrets about
anything which goes on ut the
Academy. Hazing in any form
will net be tolerated and | In.
yestlgate any reports ON the
subject which l receive from
any source. AT the very begin
ming OF the scholastic year l
let the mldshipmen officers
know my position on the mat
Ter and insisted that they
should be vigilant 10 prevent
anything OF the sort taking
place.
81 will not permit any haz-
ing ut the Naval Academy.
However, the unfortunate cases
which have occurred In the last
few days have nothing to do
with hazing. They have
been Investigated most rigidly.
1t seems that, by coincidence,
three eases of nervous trouble
have occurred at short inter-
walls. These are not unusual
among youths subjected to
rigid discipline for the first
time.

The Issue Must Be Met

THE Boston police strike raises issue
that goes to the bottom OF organized So
ciety in its power to maintain government
of law and order. under which equal rights
preserved 1t is not strike to uphold
the right OF unonizationt but goes beyond
that and seeks to enforce recognition of the
right OF afiliation with the American Fedora
ton of Labor, with which the organization
has united. Thus its ultimate purpose is to
, strengthen a movement which would ire
mendously weaken government Of, by and for
the people, and substitute therefor govern
ment OF. by and for classes.
To those who have watched the strenuous
efforts made since the outbreak Of the war 10
bring all labor unions into the fold Of one
organization, there needs argument TO
prove the purpose toward which organized
labor is driving. The threat Of sympathetic
strikes by all organized bodies affiliated with
the American Federation OF Labor in Boston
to enforce the demands Of the striking po-
licemen sufficiently indicates the strong
weapon held in reserve to win the strike and
at the same time proves tho objective of such
afiliation.
The striking policemen have been public
employees, trained and paid to protect the
public against the forces OF disorder And
yet they propose to hold on 10 these positions
of responsibility, continue to draw pay from
the public, but to make public protection sec
ondary TO that Of the interests and ambitions
OF lnduStrlal classes with which they have be-
come associated.
Thus. to enforce their unreasonable de-
mand, they have gone strike and left the
city at the mercy OF lawless forces, which
nave not been slow 10 take advantage of the
opportunity TO inaugurate orgy of looting,
facilitated by Indictment to riots, in which
hundreds OF thousands Of dollars Of property
losses has already been sustained. En-
courased by the reign of disorder, notorious
crooks from other cities are reported to be
coming into the city by every train.
The issue raised by this strike is one OF
portentous Importance. If the public cannot
depend upon the duly constituted authorities
Tor the protection to which it is entitled un-
der the law, government has reached sorry
pass in this country. And IL organized So
ciety is not SO constituted that it may compel
the protection to which it is entitled by the
means already provided, the quicker it awak-
ems 10 its defenseless position and sets about
remedying conditions which leave il at the
mercy OF anarchy, the sooner will it safeguard
itself against menace that is steadily grow
ing more serious Let the issue be met cner-
geticaly before it gets beyond control.

Following the announcement OF the
plan OF settling soldiers in communi-
ties on the unused lands OF the United
states II has been commended by some
mat the plan should be extended to

In behalf of this extension OF the
plan IL Is argued (a) that Increased
