Ordinance For Board Issue

1t has also been suggested that the
Council avail itself of the authority
vested in the act of the Legislature
OF 1922, by providing for bond issue
of 100000 or as much thereof, for
improvements TO the water plant. The
city officials are known to have fav-
orable leanings to such a project. In
fact City Counselor Hugh r.. Riley,
who is a member of the Board has
proposed a joint committee of the
Water Company directorate, and the
City Council to draft a special ordi-
nance to cover a bond issue. It is
pointed out that there is annie time
to provide for a bond issue election
to be held at the time of the regu-
lar Municipal election in July. In
other words the bond question could
be placed on the ballot to be passed
upon by the electorate at that time,
thus avoiding the necessity and ex-
pense that would result from holding
a special election.

Difficulties Overcome

Several months ago, Rear-Admiral
Henry b. Wilson, superintendent OF
the Naval Academy. was much averse
to the naval oarsmen entering any Of
the outside regattas. aside from thas
on Lake Carnegie last week. the chiff
objection being interference with ;nelr
scholastic and professional routine tk
work. This was particularly the casa
as to the varsity going to Poughkeep-
sic, as the trip means the loss OF n
month from the summer practice
cruise But as the season progressed.
the varsity, after defeating Pennsyl-
vania and Massachusetts Tech on the
Severn. and then disposed of both
Harvard and Princeton In the beush
on the lake, became such a potent fac.
tor in the matter OF deciding coIlegi-
ate supremacy on the seas. that the
naval authorities could hardly turn n
deaf ear to the renewed invitation
from the stewards OF the Poughkeepsie
Rowing Association.

To Be Transported To Ships

Hence, Admiral Wilson set to work,
and the way will be cleared by which
the oarsmen will be transported 10 the
battleships Of the cruising squadron
Immediately after the regatta. The
middies have previously entered var
sity and second crews in the Henley,
but this regatta comes in the midst OF
annual examinations for the upper
classmen, though it does not encroaeh
upon the Plebes, who have fewer schol-
astic tests than their elders.
That the middies again have an e..
cellent chance of landing intercolIegI-
ate honors is generally believed here.
Certain It is that young Glendon, the
mentor, has done wonderful work i'm
developing powerful crews all down
the line. Both his varsity and Plebe
crews have demonstrated their ability
in fine shape by the early season VIC
tories, and many believe that the var
sity, stroked by Lucy" Bolles, captain
and the only veteran in the boat, is
quite the equal to the all-powerful
combination of the last three years
that swept everything before 1t, in
Guiding the worlds championship at
the Olympics.

GIendOn To Point Pupils

Glendon will begin at once to point
his pupils for the two big regattas, al
though the varsity still has another
race on home waters, and 50 has the
second varsity. These will be with
Syracuse on Saturday next. Syracuse
had originally planned to bring along
Freshman eight also, but this has
been abandoned, so the Navy Plebes
will have to be content with engaging
in brushes with the other MILDLY
eights in the final polishing up for the
Henley regatta.

Baseball Team In Slump

Two defeats in row-by West vir-
ginia and Washington and Lee-would
appear anything but encouraging to
the Navy baseball outlook with the an
nual battle with the Army Cadets now
only three weeks removed. The slump
Of the team is chiefly in batting, this,
without discounting the stellar twirl-
ing Of Wood, Of the Mountaineers, and
McCallum, Of the Generals, for the
work Of these two hurlers was the best
that has been witnessed here this sea-
son. Another setback has been the fact
that Kelly, the veteran hurler, has
been compelled TO work in the last
three games, and it seems to have
been little too much for him to mas.
ter, and he has been hit hard.

Rust sat opposite the sheriff in a
smoking coach on a train. He leaned
over, complained that the leg irons
were too tight, and as Sheriff Fulker
stopped to loosen them, Rust brought
his manacled wrists down on the
sherif's head, knocking him uncon-
scious.
Still handcuffed, Rust reached down.

him through the heart. Then he
