Sec. Wilbur Says
Losses Prove
u. S. Navy Is Alive

Washington, Oct. 24-(AP)-When
accidents cease in the navy, the
people should know the navy is dead,
Secretary Wilbur declared today in
an address before the convention
here of the Congregational church.
Reviewing the recent series Of ac-
cidents to naval vessels, the secre-
tary declared the navy must func-
ton daily in time of peace as we'll as
in time of war, and that this necess-
arily involved dangers that must be
faced.
1--WE have had collisions between
submarines while both have been
submerged" he said; I'VE have had
collisions between submarines and
surface vessels afloat. The recent
disaster to the Sol illustrated that
no matter how careful or expert the
crew of submarine may be, an
overtaking ship may sink 1t.
There are risks to be assumed In
time of peace. Ships must be moved
in fog on dangerous coasts in time
of peace it they are to be so moved
in time of war. Airships must be
flown in time Of peace in conditions
under which they will be compelled
to fly in time OF war.
The United States navy Is . living
entity. It lives and moves and has
it's being. 1t is subject to the usual
hazard OF life We do not live upon
the principle that we seek 100 per-
cent security, but that we accept all
the hazards incident to our reason
able activities"

New Hampshire and
Mass Aggies Strongest
N. E. Grid Conference

Storrs, Conn, Oct. 24.-(AP)-
With the exception of New Hamp-
shire, which tied Springfield 1910,
every team in the New England COL
lege conference won its game yes
terday. Massachusetts, Aggies over
whelmed Norwich, 54-19, Maine
downed Bates, 1871, Connecticut Ag-
gies tripped Tufts, 80. and Rhode
Island turned back City College, ~
z. New Hampshire and Mass Aggies
are undefeated to date. though the
Granite State record is marred by
the tie contest with Springfield yes
terday.
Despite this, however. New
Hampshire should rank with Massa-
chusetts and these two elevens ap-
parently are the best in the New
England conference. They do not
meet this year but the result of the
New Hampshire Connecticut Aggies
game to be played at Manchester,
N. H., November Z. ana the Mass
Aggies-Springfield game, to be play
ed at Springfield, November 70,
should give a fair index as to
whether the New Hampshire or the
Mass Aggies can be considered the
best conference team. If Connecti-
cut defeats New Hampshire, M. A. C.
will take top honors by virtue of a
1870 victory over the Nutmeggers
last week, especially II Massachu-
sets can turn back Springfield later
on. On the other hand. If the rug
ged Granite staters overwhelm the
Connecticut team, and Springfield
manages to defeat NJ. A. c., then
first llonors must go to the New
Hampshire team.
The Connecticut Aggies. which last
year defeated every conference team,
is out Of the running this season,
having sustained defeats already at
the hands of Mass Aggies and Maine.
Two conference games with New
Hampshire and Rhode Island have
yet to be played by the Nutmeggers,
however, which il won will consider
ably improve the standing of the
Storrs team.
Maine came from behind yester-
day to defeat Bates 1861, in a game
that showed that the Pine Tree
staters could stage strong come
back after their gruelling game with
Dartmouth a week ago. Dixon,
Names right guard. looks like the
opportunist OF the year among the
linemen of the conference. Yester-
day he recovered a blocked kick and
ran nifty yards for a touchdown.
duplicating his feat of two weeks
ago singlehanded he blocked a Con-
necticut Aggies drop kick and ran
seventy yards for the only winning
touchdown Of the game.
Rhode Island took advantage OF
the breaks yesterday and aided by
brilliant work on the part of Brown
and Donnell in the backfield, turned
back c. C. N. Y. AS a contender for
conference honors. however, Rhode
Island was eliminated by 800 de-
feat at the hands of New Hampshire
earlier in the season.

AUTO CRASHES INTO
BRIDGE NEAR SASSER
w. E. SAWYER PAINFULLY IN
TURED IN AN ACCIDENT
SUNDAY NIGHT.

Mr.. w. f. Sawyer, travelling rep
resentative Of the CheroCola Co., OF
Columbus. was painfully but not Sc
riously injured about / o'clock Sun
day night, when the Hupmobile road
ster which he was driving, crashed
into the iron bridge about mile this
side of Sasser.
Mr.. Sawyer, at the time OF the acct
dent was returning to Dawson Tor
the night having been to Vidalia. He
was going at a fair rate of speed when
he was blinded by the glare from the
lamps of an approaching auto. He
struck the bridge, which is consider
ably narrower than the road, with
great force, throwing himself against
the windshield and received severe
cuts across the forehead and a deep
cash across the knee.
After checking the bleeding of the
two wounds with handkerchief the
victim of the wreck placed his auto
mobile, cushion in the road and waited
an hour and half, when a passing
car brought him to town, where med
ical attention was secured, Several
stitches were necessary to close the
wounds.
This is the second bad accident at
this bridge within the past twelve
months.

EPWORTH LEAGUE ELECTS
NEW OFFICERS FOR YEAR
Several Members Lost by School
Graduation in June.

On Sunday evening, July 10Th, the
annual election of Epworth League
officers occurred. A nominating COM
mittee. composed of Charles Wall,
chairman, Martha Lamar and Roderic
Lee, submitted the following ticket to
the league:
President, Coker Riley; vice presi-
dent, Pauline Hill; Era agent, Virginia
Peddy; recording secretary, Louise
Bridges; corresponding secretary,
Charlie Lewis; superintendent first
department, Josephine Hunt; superin
tendent second department, Sadie
Beasley; superintendent third depart
ment, Frances Clay; superintendent
fourth department, Lucille Minis. The
officers were elected as a whole.
The league has a great loss to ex-
perience this year, since it is losing
some of its most capable and faithful
leaguers. Some are beginning their
college careers and others have trans
ferred their membership. Those to
leave are Charles Wall, who has been
a most faithful and efficient president;
Martha Lamar, who has made an eX-
cellent first department superintend-
ent; John Shields, former vice presi-
dent who has aided the league in
many respects; Roderic Lee, Era
agent, who was untiring in his eff
forts; John McGregor, Harvey Smith,
Dorothy Hill and Martha Rauch, who
were all capable leaguers. Elizabeth
Simmons and Harry Simmons trans
ferred their membership to Savannall.
We are not going to allow this great
loss to daunt our courage, but are
going forward under the capable lead
ership of Mrs. c. A. Harris, superin-
tendent, and Brother Wright our
mascot.
Not only is the senior league going
to be a gold seal league next year,
but it is going to assist Mrs. E. M.
OVERLY, efficient and faithful junior
league superintendent, to make her
league a gold seal league. We are go
ing to accomplish much this year by
working and praying. Watch us mount
the top!
Good, better, best,
Never let it rest
Til your good is better
And your better best.
