Az. VIII Be Ensiigns in June
Senior lNidshipnlen Confident

Z The outlook OF the graduating class
Of the Naval Academy at Annapolis has
been changed decidedly since Gen. Per-
shing, speaking unofiiciaily in benalf
of Secretary OF the Navy Denby. told
the first classmen Friday night that
there was now every probability that
the entire class Of 535 men would be
commissioned as ensigns in June, ac-
cording to one OF the midshipmen of
that class, who was in Washington yes
terday, discussing the possibility of en-
tertng the Shipping Board service with
high officials of the board in the event
that he should not be commissioned.
Up until the time that Gen. Pershing
made this statement. that once more
brought the hope of a seafarfng life In
the Navy back into the hearts Of Uncle
Sans neophite officers. the upper class
men had become reconciied to the belief
that only 200 had a chance of remain
ing In the service and that those un-
fortunate enough not to qualify In this
number Immediately must start looking
for some life work as civilians. Now
the feeling of security has once more
settled down over the Academy because
the members are convinced that Gen.
Pershing would mot have held out any
suca hope to them II it were not an
actuality.
Doubtful About Staying. 81
According to the upper classman in
teryiewed- yesterday. who asked that
his name be withheld, the principal
problem that now confronts the mid
shipmen is whether or not it would be
advisable for them to remain in the
service. facing the conditions of a small
Navy brought about by the arms con-
ference, with the resultant assurance
that promotion among naval officers wiz
be extremely slow. The midshipmen
bark back to the time when a Junior
lieutenant wore a full beard and a
senior lieutenant was rather dubious OF
further promotion before his retirement.
and the offers of employment ashore
that have been held out to many OF
them have made them stop and medi-
tate seriously over the question.
During the past few months" the
midshipman said, "since 1t was under
stood that 900 or more of the middies
would be left high and dry without

scided that Lester and George
were tied for honors.
More than 200 boys entered the
