NAVY PLANNING
BIG SEASON IN
ALL ATHLETICS
Boxing, Wrestling, Basketball.
Swimming, Gymnastics, and
Fencing Receive Attention.

A NNAPOLIS. Nov. 5.-While
~ football has SO engrossed
~ the attention of the Naval
Academy athletic officials that lit
tie attention has been given so far
to other lines, those having direct
charge of the winter branches have
made some progress in securing
suitable opponents for the Naval
Academy teams, and good sched-
ules' are promised in boxing, wrest-
ling, basketball. swimming, gym
nastics and fencing. In most of
these branches. the Naval Academy
has stood at the top of the colleges
In recent years.
The date Of the annual basketball
game between the Naval and Military
Academies has been fixed this year for
February rs, and 1t will be played at
West Point. Most of the Wednesdays
and Saturdays during December, Jan
uary and February will be allotted a
date, and another trip, besides that
to West Point, during which a lead
ing college team will be played. is
probable.
The teams will be greatly helped
by the permission of the Department
to engage in one contest a year. away
from Annapolis. The gymnastic, fenc-
ing and swimming teams are Lex
pected to enter the final tournament
Of the collegiate body governing these
sports.
The swimming team Is particularly
anxious to meet Yale, and has offered
TO do so either at New Haven or
Annapolis. 1t is believed that the
former place will be chosen. Yale
has held the collegiate championship
for two years, but the Naval Academy
also has had a great team. and will
have two intercollegiate record holders
this year. They are Sinclair. at the
220-yards, and Kanakanui at the t40-
yard distance.
The trip Of the wrestlers will be
to Pennsylvania State, the date being
March IL. Penn State boxers will
engage the Midshipmen at Annapolis
on February rs. For two years, the
Naval Academy has stood at the top
in these sports. though Penn State
was it's closest contender. 1t Is likely
that the intercollegiate supremacy in
the particular line will be settled by
these contests.

TRIPLE THREAT
MAY BE SHOWN
BY FOUR PROS
Watson, BIeir, Robb and SuIIi-
van Star at Forward Passing,
Kicking, and Running Ball.

" backfield quartet that few
teams in the country, profess
sional or otherwise, can say they
possess, and that is four men who

Sullivan--stars of the game, will
exhibit their adeptness at forward
passing, kicking and running the ball.
Norfolk is on deck today for a game
with the Washington pros and comes
up here touted as a strong eleven.
Probably they have seen other teams
and met other teams which have pos.
sessed one, two, or maybe three
players In the backfield who could do
each one Of these tricks well, but
never have they met an eleven which
could rely upon any one man in the
secondary to do the forward passing,
kicking or line-bucking in the manner
of a star.
All honors do not go to the locals,
however. Jack Heating, former
heavyweight champ of the navy will
be on hand to show the fans how an
ex-pug can play guard. Reports from
the Norfolk district indicate that
Heating plays a whale of a game.
He will be opposed by our own Tom
Gormely or Dan Ahearn, each man a
star at his work.
Washington's lineup will be: Pat

Ahearn, left guard; Litlus, center;
Gormeley, right guard; Van Meter,
right tackle; Mccarthy. right end;

HIERARCHY URGES FAITHFUL TO.
PRAY FOR conference

Following, not merely dutifully,
but with full conviction of it's
supreme importance, the expressed
desire of our Holy Father, Pope
Benedict XIV, that steps be taken
to lift the crushing burden of heavy
ornaments from the overburdened
shoulders of the peoples and ma
tions of the world, and gratefully
recalling the fact that the Father
of Christendom first proclaimed
the necessity of united action to
secure this end, we commend most
heartily the spirit and the meas
ures so far adopted by the Presi-
dent OF the United States in sum-
moning the representative of the
great nations to meet in Washing
ton in November to discuss and
carry into effect limitation of
ornaments by all the nations; and
we call upon the Catholic people of
the United States to set apart
Armistice Day, November II, the
day of the opening of the confer
ence, as a day of special prayer
that Gods blessing may rest upon
the conference and that His Holy
Spirit may guide it's deliberations
toward Fastening that era of peace
and goodwill for which the stricken
peoples of the earth hope and pray
and labor"

Foch suggested difficulty.
Probably you are not aware that
one of my brothers is Jesuit" he
said.
To the anti-clericals, of whom Glenn
enceau was and remains a violent
type, that was difficulty, disqualifi-
cation But Clemenceau this time only

are appointed, and all the Jesuits can
not alter it. You will make good Off
GERS for us, and that's all that mat

The Call for Foch.
Friends of the anti-clericals got the
preference in the first days of the
war. They were in the cabinet. in
control everywhere. History will re-
cord that some of them were traitors
to France as to God. Some of these
favorites of anti-clericalism failed on
the field in the most critical hours
Then, once more Foch was remem-
bered and recognized for what he was.
In the darkest days of the titanic
0ln rryhn 1n ,al,
the French people envisaged defeat
and degradation, Foch was called. The
sequel is of the imperishable history
| of France.
Ferdinand Foch was born in the vii
lage of Tarbes, in the Upper Pyrenees,
in 1851. He chose the army for his
profession and had begun his studies
when the Franco-Prussian war began.
He enlisted as a private, but the war
ended before he had any part in the
fighting. He went back to his studies.
In 1891, he was attached to the general
staff. He had the rank of major. In
1895, he became assistant professor,
and five years later professor of mill
| tary history and strategy in the Ecole
de Guerre. 1t was during his service
as professor that he delivered the lee
lures that were published to make
plain his theory of war;"
| Returning to the artillery in 1901,
Foch continued in that branch until
1907, when he was made brigadier
general and selected for the general
staff, but he retained this post for
only a few weeks. 1t was at this
juncture that he succeeded General
Bonnal as head of the Ecole de Guerre.

A DOUBLE CONVERSION
FATHER AND SON ARE CONVERT
ED TO CATHOLIC CHURCH..

Two remarkable conversions were
recently recorded in Western Austra>
liza. as
Rev. Mr.. Moore, who oficiated at
North Freemantle, had sent his son
to a Catholic college. Owing to OBJ
jections on the part of members of
his congregation, he removed him
from it. Then the son went to the
war. Before his return, his mother
died.
While he was away, the son was
received into the Catholic Church, and
wrote to his father stating that he
had news to give which he feared
would pain him. He declared that
he had tried various religious bodies
but had found only the Catholic salts
fed his aspirations after truth.
The son was surprised to learn from
his father that he also had entered
the Church, had studied for the priest
hood, and entered the Redemptorist
Order
