ASA A. JOYCE QUITS
TREASURERSHIP RACE

The hot contest pending between
the Democratic factions of the county
has been lessened AT least to some
extent by the withdrawal of two can
didates. and it is regarded as not at
all unlikely that such course will
be followed by some OF the other cam
didates in the field, especially in view
of the fact that the Organization"
and Progressive" wings each has lined
up solidly behind a slate" of candi-
dates. thereby leaving the overflow to
make their fights independently.
Candidates have until midnight of
August 29. to withdraw their certifi-
Gates of candidacy. and thereby Sc
cure refund of the money deposited
by them to enter.
Those who have Withdrawn are NAH
Ion S. Disney. one of the three can
didates for County Commissioner from
the Third district, and Asa A. Joyce,
of the Fourth district, who was in a
field of six for the nomination for
County Treasurer. The withdrawal of
Mr. Disney, incumbent Commissioners,
solves a big problem that confronted
the Democrats of the Third district.

factions of the party. Except for
Col" James w. Owens, who said to-
day that he is in the fight TO the last,
the other candidates for this nomina-
tion appear somewhat reticent over
the situation and il would be more of
a guess as to what course they will
adopt between now and Monday next.

INSUFFICIENT FUNDS
BAR CONSTRUCTION OF
SWIMMING POOL NOW

Hopes of athletic officials of the
Naval Academy. and the regiment OF
midshipmen. that they would have a
fine new swimming pool within the
next year or so. were dashed by the
formal announcement today that ten
tative plans for its construction have
been abandoned for the present. In
other words. it has been found that
there are other needs of the acad-
emy. regarded as more imperative
now. that will eat up all of the
funds of the appropriations for the
academy. included in the Navy APP
preparation bill, as carved by Con-
gress.
Proposed plans called for the con
struction of a pool more than twice
the size of that now in the Gymnas-
ium. which would have accommoda-
tions for from 1900 TO 1000 specta-
tors. and 100000 will be needed
therefor. But the plans have been
abandoned at least for the coming
academic term. because sufficient
funds will not be available.
