DEMOLITION OF WAR
TIME BUILDINGS AT
ACADEMY UNDER WAY

A force of workmen pitched in to-
day and began first steps that will
ultimately mean the removal of all
temporary buildings on the Naval
Academy reservation to meet condi-
tions arising out of the World War
They are engaged in demolishing the
frame structure known as Annex A, .
which is situated close TO the main
entrance OF Bancroft Hall.
This building which is almost en-
tirely of frame construction. is in
three sections, and was erected pri-
marily for the accommodation OF the
several hundred young officers of the
Reserve Force of the Navy, who were
put through an intensive course of
training to fit them for duty in the
regular line owing to the war emer-
gencies. Since, the instruction Of
such class as was abandoned more
than year ago with the signing of
the Armistice. part of the structure
has at times been utilized for pur-
poses of class rooms of the midship-
men. Authorities OF the academy
now find, however. that there is no
further use for it, and after it has
been razed, it is expected that the
lumber and other materials will be
either sold, or "scrapped."
Annex b." similar, but smaller
structure, will not be disturbed for
the present, but ultimately it will go
to the junk heap

TEAM 5 HEADS THE LIST

It was with real interest that the
workers on the Subscription commit

the ~" headquarters Friday after
noon at five o'clock to hear the report
of the progress of the Finance Cam
paign.
Delicious punch was served while
the ladies waited with very natural
impatience for the desired informa-
tion
Mrs Feldmeyer, Campaign Treas
urer was busily engaged in receiving
money and entering names Of sub
scribers in the 1920 Budget Book as
fast as they were reported by the vari-
Gus Team Captains.
A large poster was shown on which
the teams were arranged in order ac-
cording to the amounts collected.
Heading this list was Team No. 5,
Mrs. Charles C. Bramble. Captain and
composed of the following members:
Mrs. w. f. Shenton, Mrs. II. ]. Fenton,
Mrs. c. J. Winter. Mrs. Wade, Mrs.
Meteour and Mrs. r. +. Root.
The ladies of Team have inter
viewed every family of the civilian in
structors residing in Annapolis, and
should feel very proud of well plan
ned campaign, well carried out and
completed.
When the amounts turned in by all
teams to date were totaled it was
found that 9-5 of the Budget had al
ready been raised
This brought forth many express
sions TO delight and all felt much en-
cOuraged.
Since a great many people have not
vet been solicited and the reports from
several teams are incomplete the COM
mittee feels while there is yet much
work to be done, they have every con-
fidence that their goal of Five Thous,
and Dollars will be reached shortly.

WOODS FIRE RAGING
NEAR BODKIN POINT

A big woods fire has been raging on
both sides of the Mountain road near
Bodkin Point, in upper Anne Arundel
county. Residents of the neighbor-
hood are apprehensive that the fire
will approach their homes, and by
building dirt embankments and other
means are endeavoring to prevent the
flames from spreading TO their lands.
The fire has wended its way about two
miles, but hopes are expressed that it
will soon burn itself out. The flames
yesterday were famed by a stiff
breeze blowing in the direction of the
Chesapeake Bay. Automobiles pass
ing along the road are forced to pass
through dense volumes of smoke and
heat.
