receive the benefit of the instruction
Under the system. every midship-
man is assigned to certain sports,
becoming a member of the varsity,
class or company squads. There are
class and company competitions in
each line, and the latter, in particular,
bring out great many midshipmen
who have had no experience at all in
competitive sports. The competitions
are keen and much interest is aroused
as they progress.
The system has been put in oper-
alton for the first time this Fall.
When fully working, the present
scheme will have 1874 of the 1878
midshipmen in the field as a daily
average. Some, of course, must al
ways be absent because they are on
duty, not in physical condition or
for some other reason.
With the system not yet completely
in operation, largely because the full
equipment has not yet been obtained,
there has been a daily average of
1900 midshipmen actually engaged in
sports, their distribution being as
follows: Foot ball, 500; soccer, 45O;
rowing, 2S9; tennis, 142; cross coun-
try, To- hand ball, 80.

the WHDle service WOuIu uItlindtelA
and practice at the Naval Academy
For Winter sports the employment
of a daily average of 1920 midship
men has been outlined. They will be
assigned as follows: Basket ball 235:
swimming, ISL; wrestling, 224; box
ing, BIS; bowling, as gymnastics.
291; water polo, 100.
Spring Program Heavy.
A particular effort will be made 70
have every midshipman participate
in some out-of-door sport in the
Spring and 1918 will be assigned, the
quota for each sport being as fol-
lows: Lacrosse, 52S; rowing, S64:
field and track, 507; tennis, POS; hand
ball, 104; cross country, 147; base ball,
235.
The most important factor in the
new system has been the inaugurs
ton of the series of contests among
the eight companies of the regiment.
This has brought into active sports a
far larger number of midshipmeu
than any other movement and it is
having the finest results in incul-
eating the athletic spirit in the large
majority of midshipmen and develop
ing qualities which will be of great
value to them as officers.

ASK SPECIAL ACT
TO SEAT E. W. COLE
IN u. S. CONGRESS
Population Allows for Ex-
ira Representative But
He Isn't Recognized.

The passage of a special act pro-
viding for the seating of +. w. Cole of
Austin as OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES for
the State of Texas in the Congress of
the United States will be sought at a
hearing set for Tuesday, March Is in
Washington. according to Coles at
torney, Judge J.CF. Carl of San An
tonic.
The passage of this act is being
sought by Judge Carl in the interest
of +. W. Coles claim 10 seat in the
House of Representatives of the Con
gress Of the United States as repre-
sentative-at-largc from the state of
Texas which has been ignored.
Coles claim is based on the new
census figures of 1920 which give
Texas a larger representative popula-
ton than she had in 1910. He has not
been allowed to take his seat how
ever because Congress did not pass
an apportionment act n 1920 provid-
ing for additional representatives in
states where the population has in
creased as it did after the census of
1910.
The 1920 census figures showed a
larger representative population and
in May. 1922 Cole went before a
regular meeting of the Democratic
State Executive Committee and made
application in due form. to have his
name placed on the ballot to be voted
on in the primary elections. He sub
sequently was practically unanimously
nominated in the primary election
NJ al -, ., ii
His election was certified by Gov
ernor Pat NJ. Neff of Texas and the
certificate filed with the clerk of the
House of Representatives in Congress.
The clerk has refused 70 file this GER
tificate or to recognize tine claims Of
Cole. The appointment o; a secretary
and other privileges to which members
of Congress are entitled also have been
refused.
The duty to take census is made
mandatory in the constitution and
while Congress may pass laws to en-
force the constitution it has no power
TO pass law or fail to pass a law
which would deny a right given by the
constitution in the opinion of Judge
Carl.
Judge Carl argues that Cole should
not be deprived of what he calls n
right by the constitution through the
failure of Congress to pass an appor-
tionment act following the last cen
suS.
Judge Carl stated Thursday that he
would leave for Washington probably
several days preceding the day of the
contest
