It is also the same sort of thing
that certain of our Olympic Off.
cials criticize Germany for doing
with its athletes. 1t is no secret
that Germany, in its desire to win
at the Olympic games in Helsingfors
in 1910, and thus create fuel for
the Nordic supremacy business. has
subsidized great many of its ath-
letes and placed them in strict and
rigid training for the events of a
month and year from now.
While not acquainted with the
rules and regulations of the naval
academy I believe that Hunts mid
summer vacation from duty aboard
battlewagon is a bit unusual. It
is on cruises that middies learn
the practical side of sailoring: put
into practice all the theories they
have pounded into their heads lin
the class rooms on the Severn.
There Is another side of 1t. too.
There are thousands of young men
who would love to attend the
academy on scholarship from the
government, with a fine education
and career provided them free of
charge. 1t seems absurd that a
young man being thus elucated
should find tennis so important
that he is willing to put aside all
else for the playing of it.
Suppose all the midshipmen and
sailors in the academy and the navy
were treated as generously as Hunt
What a fleet we would have! Can

NEW YORK. Aug. 5. (UP)-The
leave of absence from his ship given
Midshipman Joseph Hunt in order
that he might try for place on
the Davis cup team smacks of over
empasis of sport to this department
The summer cruise is a vital part
of a naval academy cadets educa-
ton, and the fact that Hunt has
a good forehand and strong net
attack seems a ridiculous reason
for excusing him from maneuvers
out on the broad and pitching
Atlantic.
But excused he was, and sent off
to Southampton to get his land
legs and bid for place on the
American team that will defend the
Davis cup against Australia in Sep
