letic authorities OF the Naval Acad-
emy. Selection of the date comes aft

of the battle. Army officials having
the choice as TO site, having pre-
viously selected the grounds of the

NAVY OARSMEN WILL
NOT DEFEND TITLE IN
POUGHKEEPS|E CLASSIC

The Naval Academy crew, two
years in succession winners OF the
Poughkeepsie race, 10th times lower
ing the records for the course. will
stay out of the big even, this year
This has been stated emphatically by
Rear Admiral Henry b Wilson, sup
erintendent of the Academy. apropos
of the fixing of the date for the race
as June 2S.
1t is pointed out that the Naval
Academy is an occasional entrant in
the race. rather than a regular one.
In 1921. il entered and won. and there
was no intention OF entering the nexi
year. However. the Navy was urged
TO send its crew. and Admiral Wilson
consented that it should do so in or
der to defend its honors. but made IL
clear that they were not TO be expect
ed another year.
Tie objection on the part of the
Academy authorities is that the entry
makes it necessary for the oarsmen tt
lose a considerable portion of the
summer practice cruise. and, in many
cases, the same youths would lose
two or more summers.

HEALTH COMMISSIONER
FLAyS LIMITATION ON
MEDICINAL LIQUOR

Coincident with publication of fig
ures showing that influenza again is
becoming epidemic throughout Mary
land, Health Commissioner c. Hamp-
son Jones yesterday bitterly criticised
the prohibition regulations which
place a limit on the number OF whis-
key prescriptions allowed individual
physicians.
He voiced the protest despite the
fact that Acting Prohibition Commits
sioner Jones, of Washington, has an
nounced that in sections where in
fiuenza is widespread physicians will
be permitted TO exceed their quota OF
100 prescriptions each three months
There should be no limit" de-
elared DR.. Jones. IF members of the
medical profession cannot be trusted
not to abuse their prerogatives. their
licenses should be taken away from
them
Il am not passing upon the ques-
tion OF the medicinal value OF whis-
key That is aside from the point. I
consider any attempt OF that nature to
limit the prescription powers of ply
sicians as unwarranted and a refiec-
tion on the profession"

rector for the Maryland district. re-
vealed that there is plenty of liquor"

NAVY TOSSERS HAVE
ROUGH GOING AHEAD

Excepting only the final game
against the Military Academy. the
most interesting period of the basket
ball season at the Naval Academy is
at hand. the games against Penn Uni
versity. on Wednesday, and George
town, on Saturday. promising real
treats 10 sport lovers. There are
special reasons for expecting the
hardest kinds of battles in beth of
these contests.
After the Nayy's one-point defeat in
Philadelphia, in connection with the
circumstances of the game. the mid
sEipmen are keen to reverse the re-
suit of the first contest. And hy the
steady Improvement the team has
shown. their hopes probably will be
realized.
Georgetown appears on the Naval
Academy schedule for the first time in
a number of years. Considerable feel
ing attended the most recently played
games. and it was the general feeling
that the teams could not get along to-
gether and had better not meet. 1t is
believed that a better spirit pervades
10th teams and their friends now, and
that the game. though expected to be
hot one. will be played in a sports
manlike manner.
