MIDSHIPMEN TRIUMPH in
WORLD'SROWING CLASSIC
Crack Varsity Crew Developed
BY "Dick" Glendon This Sea-
son Takes Measure OF Eng
lands Pride Eight In Brush OF
1000 Meters &
BEAT FORMER RECORD
BY NEARLY A SECOND

There is JOY unbounded
throughout the Navy and the
United States today, and partic-
ularly right here in Annapolis,
because, the Navy's eight-oared
shell crew, representing America
in the Olympiad events, or to be
more exact, the crack crew of
Annapolis midshipmen, that at
tanned an enviable record in col
lege rowing races on the Severn
and at the American Henley,
yesterday sent the pride of Eng
land down to defeat in the big
aquatic event at Antwerp. And
not only did the middies achieve
that success, but they also ex-
ceeded the worlds record for
time for 1000 meters, the dis
tance of the course over which
the race was rowed. The mid
dies are entitled to big niche in
the worlds hall of rowing fame.
Admiral Scales Happy
Fine! said Rear-Admiral A. H.
Scales, superintendent of the Naval
Academy, when informed last night
by a representative OF the Evening
Capital, over the splendid triumph OF
the embryo naval officers in the world
classic. News of the victory spread
rapidly about the government res-
ervation, and cheers went forth here
and.-there among the officers of the
station. midshipmeh of the new fourth
class and others.
Hail To @Dickc GlendOn
The laurels attained by the mid
shipmen reflect a large measure of
credit upon Richard Glendon, veteran
coach of the Navy oarsmen. Glen
don's work as a mentor among the
has covered period OF near
ly 20 years, and the Varsity crew
which he developed this year was re-
garded by followers of rowing, as the
strongest that ever represented the
Academy.
That yesterdays race was a Cruel
ling one from the outset, is amply in
by newspaper reports cabled
from Antwerp, race that taxed the
rival oarsmen to the limit The mid
dies negotiated the distance in 2 min

THE PILGRIM MOTHERS.

In this year when our thoughts are turned so
often to the things that were aforetlme, 1t "oulo
be interesting to know much more about the
Pilgrim mothers than the scrappy records, hints
and Incidental mentions which have come GOWN.
But the Pilgrim fathers were not much gwen
to starring their womenfolk or to extolllng them
tlnduly or exalting them i'll any way likely to
turn their heads. And it was mans world
then where the masculine activities lighting,
hunting. hewing timber, clearing fields, build.
ing churches, preaching IN them and chasing
non-confornists out into the wilderness
the things that seemed to count for most. Such
annals OF early days and doings as have been
preserved were written by the fathers, and
about the only thing woman could do to merit
notice was to be born or get married or die.
This generation is making full and splendid
atonement for any lack of attention the women
of that period could complain of; but the sex
had not come to it's own in those days. and what
women thought and wrought and said and did
was taken as a community commonplace and
matter of course. Yet they were helpmeets in
the truest sense, worthy of all praise, heroic,
hardwoltking, resoute, and not the least Of their
claims to the affection and respect Of their pos
terity was the cheerful resignation, not to say
surprising forbearance with which they put up
with the Pilgrim fathers who We're unquestion-
ably as gloomy and rheumy as there was any
justification for.
And yet, as if a presage Of the part that
woman was to play in a republic where, in the
fullness OF time, she was to win all her own
rights and battle with man for his, one of the
most notable of the early Puritan colonists and
one of the most remarkable women of her time
or of any time came to Boston in 1854 set the
colony by the ears and split it up the middle
before she was finally subdued. This was Anne
Hutchinson. nee Marbury and she was Susan
u. Anthony and several other indomitable
women rolled into one. The colony VISA frankly
theocratic, ruled by its clergy, and to these Anne
threw down her gauntlet the moment she got
