TO HEARTS CONTENT;
WILSON RAISES BAN

The regiment of midshipmen will.
in the future, be care-free as far as
smoking is concerned. No more will
they be forced to HE themselves to
some quiet corner or other secluded
spot on the government reservation
for fear of breaking the academic reg
ulations.- by appeasing their appetites
for drag on cigarette, or pull
on the "old favorite hod,' for Ad-
miral Henry B. Wilson. superinten-
dent, has promulgated an order, re-
voking the former edict which pro-
hibits smoking.
The middies may now smoke in their
rooms or whenever and wherever
they please. except that the Admiral
disapproves OF smoking in uniform
while about the streets of the city.
This 4atter is also applicable TO Off
GERS attached to the institution.
Speaking of the matter. Admiral
Wilson said il is not to be under
stood that he would encourage the use
of the weed by the youngsters. al
though he does not feel that moderate
indulgence will do them harm. He
said he appreciates the fact that most
young men like to smoke. and inti-
mated that he does not feel like treat
ing the big corps of students under
him like doll babies"

DRIVER OF TRUCK, A
MARINE, FINED $500
FOR AUTO COLLISION

A fine of 5000 and costs was inn
Brady today upon Private Nj. H..
Jones, of the Marine Corps. stationed
at the Naval Academy Barracks, fol-
lowing a trial on the charges of reck-
less driving and of operating motor
vehicle while under the influence OF
liquor On the first charge the judg-
ment was not guilty. while the con-
viction was on the other charge.
The arrest was at the instance of
Lieutenant Yancey. temporarily on
duty at the Navy Rifle Range. whose
wife. with woman companion. was
driving a touring car away from the
Range shortly after the noon hour
last Wednesday and. at a sharp turn
leading off from the Remson farm,
was in collision with truck driven
by Private Jones and in which were
five other marines being transported
for duty at the Range. All six of the
marines testified that Jones was
operating the truck slowly and care
fully and that there was nothing
about him that indicated that he Wa
intoxicated in any degree. A hospital
apprentice. who examined him about
forty minutes after the accident, tes-
titled 10 the same effect, as did also a
Navy doctor about two hours after
wards Jones testified that he had
taken two bottles of near-beer about
$50 in the morning while in town
with the mess sergeant doing some
shopping for the barracks, and thai
he had had nothing else to drink
Major Coyle, the commanding officer
testified as to Jones being a good
careful driver and that he was en-
trusted with that service for his
family
The testimony of the prosecuting
witnesses was principally directed 10
the claim that after the collision
Jones acted like a man who was
either drunk or crazy" that he used
profane language in the presence OF
the ladies'. and made threats about
using a knife or gun. All this was
denied by Jones. who testified that he
did not have either knife or gun. and
made no threats of any kind. He saiC

foot launch River Queen" from West
River TO Annapolis, narrowly escaped
being swamped, and about 80 pas
sengers, all of whom had been spend
ing their vacations at boarding

experience. Charles Davis, was pilot
ing the boat. and it was miraculous
that the craft weathered the heavy,
choppy sea. that was rolling.
With the wind. blowing a gale from
the northwest. there was little chance
to hug the shore. and il was with the
greatest difficulty that the colored
skipper" kept the nose of the craft
into the wind. Occasionally the boat
got in the trough of the seas and near
ly swamped. All of the passengers
were virtually terror-stricken. A few.
however. managed to hold their wits
and kept bailing water out of the
boat. and at the same time trying to
quiet others.
Even then. two of the young women
in the party. both from Baltimore,

The shore OF Severn river. on the

suffered aovere cuts and bruises about
the face and body from blows de-
livered by his attackers. Six other
men, charged with the assault, have
been released under $500 each for a
hearing to be held at an early date
before Police Justice William s.
Welch, of Annapolis
The victims of the assault arc John
Benson and Charles LanghOr who
comprised one party. Those held un-
der bail are Marion Labatine, Philip
eph Scuddigo Philip Guglinzzcr.
Later a sixth man. Clement D'Orsi
was taken by Chief Deputy II. Edward
Dove and Deputy Charles n. Brooks.
D'Orsi was left behind by. the others
in the gtaaway The trouble start
ed along about Z in the morning
II seems that Benson and Langhor
reached the shore first and had start
ed out in a boat AS soon as the other
four arrived. II is said, they started a
quarrel. and Benson and Langhor
were invited to come ashore. They
did not hesitate TO accept the def,
and as soon as they set foot on the
beach. first one and then another OF
the four men started TO pummel Ben
son, against whom, ii is said, the
greatest i'll feeling was entertained by
the others. LonghOr, il seems, had
little or no part in the encounter.
Benson was given severe drubbing
by his attackers. and then knocked
violently to the ground, the fall frac-
turing a leg. After the trouble sub
sided. Benson was brought TO tho
Emergency Hospital here by Langhor
in the automobile in which they had
made the trip TO the river shore.
Meanwhile, word had been dispatched
to Baltimore to look out for the four
men who entered their car and start
ed to drive north over the boulevard.
Police OF the Southern District OF
Baltimore apprehonded the men as
they were crossing Hanover Street
Bridge and they were taken 10 the
Southern District police station to
await developments.
Meanwhile. the fracture of Bensons
leg had been reduced and his injuries
were given treatment so that he was
able TO be taken to Baltimore late in
the afternoon and identify the men.
Then the quartette were brought back
to Annapolis and arraigned before
Police Justice Welch, who fixed bail
above referred to pending a prelimin-
airy hearing. The security was fur
nished by d. Klawansky. of Annapo-
lis, and Philip Burman. OF Baltimore.
