.MIDDIES STOW.
B 0 0 K S AWAY.
A WAIT AR M Y.
By FRANK BUCK" ONEILL

If a young midshipman stood in
class today and said solemnly II
the enemy appeared off his port
bow that he'd fire the starboard
battery, even Rear Admiral Wilson
Brown would forgive him. And
the regiment wouldn't see any
thing unusual in such reply, for
right now they're thinking of air
raids, not enemy fleets.
They're thinking Of regiments
of marching men; men in gold,
black and grey. Men in the colors
and accoutrementS of West Point.
For it's Army-game week at Annap-
oils and the Naval Academy has
gone goofy.
The book of regulations has
been slowed away in duffle bags
until December /. Somewhere in
that book you'll find line that
says directly or by inference that
you can't paint a sheet. That
comes under the heading of de-
struction of property. Why,
everybody knows you can paint
sheets this week.
TIME PUZZLE
How will the squad know that
it's supposed tc beat Army if you
don't wave it in their faces? And
somewhere there's something toI
the effect that you mustn't annoy
the PlebeS. How is an upper class
man to know the exact number of
minutes and seconds between now
and the moment the kickoff
ICONS down the field in Philadel-
phia on Saturday?
And then there's the matter CT
Tecumseh, the good old God of 80
that lets deserving MidShipmen
pass their studies. Maybe it isn't
80. Maybe the figures are re-
verSed, but what ever 1t is. Te-
cumseh will take care of it.

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Nov. n.
Three members of the Army
team which will oppose Navy

Everyone knows that Tecumseh
must have his annual coat of wal
paint. Hang what the book says,
and Admiral, turn your head when
you walk by the old chieftain.
There are rites to be performed
this week that not even the book
of regulations can stop.
MORE FRANKS
Capt. M. F.. Draemel, COM
mandant of midshipmen, would
not be surprised if he found one
of the siege guns that frown over
the south wall, wheeled into his
office before shutdown.
In fact, its good bet that If
he heard the gun rumbling along
he'd get up and find some eX-
cuse to visit Capt. E. w. Mckee.
Not if the gun were drawn by a
span of mules. No, that's out. 1t
would have to be hauled by the
Midshipmen.
The hysteria that grips An
napolis tonight, extending from
the highest Office to the men
about town, will reach its climax
Friday night when a few extra
special rites will be observed
Lieut.. Hank Hardwick will make
a speech in front of the Regiment
Therell probably be bonfire, for
even Midshipmen will be boys on
at least one night year.
Out on the practice field the
squad works behind drawn cur
tains There's no rollicking sport
now. The boys listen to the last
word in instruction from men
who have seen Army play. Most
Of tn squad saw the Princeton
game on last Saturday, and know
full we'll what confronts them.
LAST INSTRUCTIONS
Army marched IS yards against
Princeton, lost the ball but rolled
back to score. Army marched IS
yards against Notre Dame: 100
yards including the kickoff and
scored against the Rollicking
RamblerS.
Yes indeed. Navy knows that
there's work to be done. But Navy
has a team that can play a lot
of football, and as we view the
game through the battles of Army
and Navy against Notre Dame, the
blue jackets have a pretty fair
chance to win.

A Choice "Sedt"

We were given a seat of honor
standing up in back Of a fellow
who didn't think much of the
contest. When a steam shovel
lifted a piece of cliff weighing
twenty tons, he said, 1T isn't
trying"
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1938-11-22
Blue Prints Next

The fellow next to us said,
"the Rockefellers are the finest
people ever kibitzed. I've only
been here three times. Tomor-
row thy're going to show me
the blue prints"
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1938-11-22
Somebody Holding Out

There's a roof over the Obser-
vatiOn platform that protests
the established ganders from
the weather. And in front is
plate glass. The fellow next to
US said, they're holding out"
We asked, "why, don't you
think plate glass is pretty nice?"
he said, Sure. But I want wind
shield wipers."
That's the way the Rookie
fellers treat us ex-college kib-
itzers. As they used to say in
the Army, The none is best too
good for us"
Speaking as Americas favOrite
guest, we rate the ROckefellerS
doubleA on their hospitality.
It's all pretty sweet. If there
are any roadside p rOphets who
want to criticise two steam
shoveIs at once, just 60 over to
Radio City and mention my
name. Tomorrow they're going
to fill the steam shOvelS with
daggers and fight a duel.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1938-11-22

There is some talk that the
Rockefellers are unethical in
giving 'em two steam ShovelS
for the price of one. But that's
the way it is now. And in the
future every foundation digger
will have to give 'em a big
double feature.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1938-11-22

There's nothing like cO-Operat-
ing with the neck-breathers Of
America. The Radio City own
ers know that willing hands
make play out of work. Even
when the willing hands are in
pockets.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1938-11-22

We thought the steam shovel
was trying because its back
tilted up so far the engineer
fell out of the drivers seat. 1t
shivered all over like a cat in
the rain. There was another
steam shovel in the excavation
and we figured why the fellow
thought the first one was dog
ging it. He was sore because the
first shovel didn't pick up the
twenty-ton boulder and toss 1t
for a lateral to the second
power spade.
The Radio City sidewalk
superintendentS are exactly like
the volunteer StrategiSts who
tell football coaches how to win
a game they have lost. Or one
they haven't played yet. Except
the pavement OverSeers are
actually present when the action
Is taking place.
