Tomorrow

ANNAPOLIS, April with the
spring season of sport not yet at
its full cry, baseball, lacrosse and
tennis are on the Nays card for
the present week. 1t will also
mark the end of the spring work
for one detachment OF the foot
ball squad, and the beginning Tor
another.
The nine meets the Albany club
of the International League on
tomorrow and Boston College on
Saturday, all on the local dls-
mond.
The lacrosse team will have its
most difficult job up to that polnI'
when it tackles Princeton in the
Tigers lair on Saturday.
Netmen Due LetdOwn
After the Harvard contest, the
tennis men should have a letdown
when they meet the Havertord
players on the Navy court. -,
In its losing games against
Dartmouth and Vermont, the nine
has given the lo'al contingent
little grounds for the hope that
it will make an improvement over
last season. Infield work has been
ragged and the hitting weak. or
the pitchers, only Bob Hale has
shown even fair promise up to this
time.
On the other hand, the lacrosse
team, coached for the first season
by Dinty Moore, the successful
mentor at st. Johns for some
years. shows signs of good season,
but will have a real test when 1t
meets Princeton Friday.
Always a Leader
For some years past, Princeton
has been one of the leaders in
the sport and has an impressive
record of straight victories against
college teams.
With their spring practice over,
a number Of football men have
turned to lacrosse, and greatly
strengthened the squad. Among
the number are Sneed Schmidt,
Frank Case and Fay WillSie. lead
ing backs, and a detachment Of
powerful linemen which should
make great defense players.
Football practice for A squad
men, which has continued for four
weeks, came to an end Saturday,
and practice for B squad men will
continue for a like period.

Escape From Devils Island"

Cast-Victor JOry, Florence

In this smoothly told and ex-
citing story of life in the French
penal colony on Devils Island
and the narrowing experiences OF
several prisoners who try to es-
cape, the dramatic possibilities
are clumsily handled. The at
tempts at escape are crudely
shown, exciting situations are
portrayed with little realism and
the acting is unconvincing thru
out. There is a widespread inter
est in this penal institution, but
unfortunately the picture never
realizes the opportunities offered
by the story. Adults and young
people.

Huge Texas Ranch
Seeking Hunters
Continued from Page u

make a thorough investigation.
McMurray let it be known that
he had taken three men into Gus
tody in connection with the hunt.
He obtainer permission for un-
armed groups to search the ranch.
The men IN Constable Cakes
group planned to be gone three
DAYS and to explore one small
corner of the vast property, pre-
sumably that part which heirs
of the ranch's founder decided to
the state as a game preserve. but
over which they held control.
The disappearance famed the
resentment of residents who hate
the big ranchers because of their
power to dictate much of the poll
tical and economic life in southern
Texas.
Residents demanded an explana-
ton of the role of two game war
dens who patrol the preserve. The
Wardens are armed and have Or
ders to prevent poaching. The war
dens are on the ranch payroll, but
are commissioned by the state.
The yigilantes anger also was
famed by reports that eight men
have disappeared while on hunt
ing expeditions on the ranch dur
ing the past few years.
One resident quoted warden
as being under orders to shoot any
poacherS. Serious trouble between
the gathering mob and the va
queros on the ranch was believed
averted by the attitude of Mrs.
Luther Blanton, wife and mother
of the missing men.
Two wrongs don't make a right,
she warned her neighbors. Il don't
want any more bloodshed."
Her other son, Frank, echoed
this plea and added:
I'VE have no hopes for finding
them alive, but we do hope and
pray that we might recover their
bodies"
