studied aviation from the prectl-
cal standpoint.

Europe. 1t took us II days TO
cross the Atlantic. We landed at
Cherbourg and spent eleven days
in France. 1 learned more French
in that short time than l had IN
all my previous years Of study in

Off To Germany
From France they Travelled to
Kiel, Germany. In Berlin the
German midshipmen gave them a
dinner. Douglas sat next to two
men who had been to Douglas and
Juneau on the Emden cruise several
years ago After spending three
days in Oslo, they went to Scot
land
Forty days out of the year, the
midshipmen are allowed vacation.
In the five years Douglas spent in
Annapolis he visited 80 states.
The last part of the speech,
Douglas declared, was directed es-
pecially to the boys-he said he
would speak to the girls individu-
ally! He urged the boys to be-
come interested in the Naval Aca-
deny, as the finest opportunity
open anywhere. The Delegate for
Alaska can appoint three boys to
West Point and three to Annapolis.
The examination can be taken
right in Juneau. A boy can enter
the academy without cent and
come out with $1,000 The govern
ment pays the fare from the boys
home to Annapolis, sos a month
besides board and room.
In conclusion, Douglas urged that
the Freshmen and Sophomores plan
their curriculum with a view to
the Naval Academy requirements
and that they try for an appoint
ment.

yesterday afternoon of his life and
experiences at the Naval Academy
Douglas first described the town
of Annapolis, which has a popula-
ton of 10000 with $4,000 of that
number being negroes. The Naval
Academy is not part of the town
proper but is located at Fort Sew
ern. The first class of six increased
to about 1000. Nothing in the
laws prohibits a girl from going
to the Naval Academy but Douglas
doesn't recommend that any girl
try it.
The campus at Annapolis is the
most beautiful in the country with
the exception of West Point which
is much older campus. Bancroft
Hall is the largest dormitory in the
world housing $500 midshipmen,
having three miles of corridors and
20 acres of floor space, besides a
tailor shop, laundry, store, kitchens,
ten bowling alleys, rifle range, den
fist and meat market.
Academy Routine
The Academy routine is strict.
All midshipmen must be up at
6:15 a. m, and in bed by 1000 p.
m. There are three classes a day,
one hour each, followed by one
hour of study after each class.
From $3.50 to 4:30 in the afternoon,
what is known as drill" the men
may turn out for rowing, sailing,
gym, machine gun practice.
There is a five hour study period
every day during which no man
may enter any other persons room.
Athletics play a prominent part.
Every boy does his best to make
some sort of team, with fencing.
football, baseball, soccer, swimming,
water polo, indoor and outdoor
rifle, wrestling and boxing among
the sports from which he may
choose.
Biggest Thrill
The biggest thrill of Annapolis
life, according to Douglas, is the
summer routine. Two summers are
spent cruising and the third in
aviation training. During his first
summer, Douglas went for cruise
