on Annapolis Fields.

A NNAPOLIS, Md, May 29.-Teams
= of the Naval and Military Acad-
emies will meet Saturday in three Of
the five regularly scheduled sports be-
tween the two-track and base ball
at Annapolis and lacrosse at West
Point.
The starting time of the two events
at Annapolis has been fixed so that
it will be easy to see both of them.
The track meet will begin at lis
and should be over in two hours. The
base ball game starts at $3.50. y
While the Navy lacrosse men are
reasonably confident. the Army team
has a somewhat better record and
must be outfought to be defeated. On
the other hand. the Navy should have
a slight margin In the track meet,
while the base ball game, with both
teams lacking an effective pitcher,
looks like a tosS-up.
The Army leads in base ball, II
to IL, and it has won seven track
meets to the Navy's two. The Navy
leads In lacrosse, having won six
games, lost one and another was a

spring forth from his den in a double

handy tractor, would lead the field rae
ing over q series of gasoline pumps
and fences built of canned salmon.

hibition tomorrow should provide as
fair test of hunting horses as we've
seen this year, and the addition Of the
troop rides, polo pony classes and the
special hunt-team course lends further
fancy fillips to the day. Col. Charles

Old Dominion Hunt will do the judg-
ing, and our society scouts report there
will be all manner of foreign ministers,

such to brighten the scene for those
