ing the week assigned.
There is little doubt but that a bet
ter balanced program will be arranged
for the next indoor event for the
committee as well as the players real
ize the unfairness of the arrange
ments which were made for this one,
as well as the fact that much larger
galleries would have turned out had
there been more variety in the eve
ming events.
From the spectators standpoint
program consisting of both mems and
Women's matches is more of a draw
ing card than one entirely of women
or entirely of men. However, this
is Washington's first tourney of this
type, and as in all other first times, ="
it has been more or less experimental.
The experience gained by mistakes
in this viii be used to good advantage
in promoting the next Indoor affair.
Capitol Athletic Club officials have
announced that the class in dancing
limbering and stretching, which has
been held each Monday night at 8
O'Clock at Wilson Normal School will
be held on Thursday nights at the
same hour and place in the future

A number of inquiries concerning

MAY. RAISE OBJECTIONS
Feel That Midshpmen Should Not Be Called Upon

NNApOLIS, January

A NNAPOLIS, January IA. -
" Naval people in this section
a continued to be aroused by
A the continuous flocling of
college foot ball stars to the
Military Academy and are giving seri-
Gus consideration to the course which
is to be taken in relation to the
matter.
There is 4 strong feeling that the
Naval Academy should not he called

Against team which is not com
posed of men developed at their OPP
ponen' institution, but which has
been organized largely from PLAYERS
who have become foot ball stars at
othe" institutions
In e,d'tion to a number of line
men fror other colleges. these backs
from Their institutions were in the
squad OF the Military Academy last
season:
Hewitt, Pittsburgh; Wilson, Penn
State Harding, Davis and Elkins:
Murrell, Minnesota; eagle, Louisiana
Southwestern, and Dahl, Allegheny
College.
Two Will BE Lost
Os these. Hewitt and Harding will
graduate in June. and as the Military
Academy has adopted the firSt-year
rule, there viii be no recruits from
other colleges for the 1927 eleven.
However, Wilson, who has been
named captain, will be playing his
seventh year of varsity foot ball, three
at Penn State and four at the Mill
tary Academy.
The big year for West Point, how,
ever, if the published statements as
to foot ball players to enter it are
correct, will be 1928, when it will
have these former college backs
available:
MurreI, University of Minnesota.
eagle, Louisiana Southwestern.
Dahl. Allegheny
Kaer, Southern California.
Kelly, University of Montana
Marks, University of Chicago
The first three are now cadets at
West Point and will have three more
seasons there. The other three, ac-
cording to newspaper statements,
have accepted appointments to the
Military Academy. If they enter
they will be eligible to play under the
rules there in 1928.
Condition Is Unusual
1t is pointed out that no team ever
had such an array of foot ball talent
from other colleges. While some in
this group are from small colleges,
every one had a notable reputation
before entering the Military Academy.
eagle was a brilliant running and
passing back, the highest scorer in
the South one year, while Dahl had
played three years a. Allegheny Col
lege and had established himself as
the greatest player that institution
ever had produced
Murrell was good enough to dis
place Hewitt, former Pitt player and
captain of the West Point team. |
Marks was captain of the Chicago
eleven last year and was a strong
player on weak team. The poor |

DON'T BUY UNINSPECTED
NURSERY FRUIT STOCK

A. G. Ruggles, state entomologist
warns against the purchase of nursery
stock that has not been inspected
and certified by duly qualified state
officials. Information has been OBJ
tanned that many uncertified plants
were sold in recent months, particu-
larly small fruit plants such as straw
berries and raspberries. According
to Mr.. Ruggles many of these unin-
spected plants are diseased and unfit
to plant. Each year several paintings
are refused a state certificate on &C.
count of disease. Purchasers are
urged to avoid the buying of plants
that have not been inspected owing
to the risk of spreading insect pests
and plant diseases. The selling of un-
inspected plants is illegal.
