ANNAPOLIS. Md, Nov. 28.-There

Admiral Emory S. Land. chairman
of the Maritime Commission.
Harold Hamberg's name on the
lips of most fans was the closest
they came to food during the game
here. No hot dogs-no nothing
were peddled in Thompson Sta
dunn. The most fortunate people
were the sports writer's, who were
served coffee and sandwiches.
1t was q stirring sight when Army
romped on the field. Nays Sd
and 4th Regiments rose and roared
loud enough to be heard in Balti-

abandoned encouragement, though
deep in their hearts those Middies
on Army's side were enjoying the
afternoon immensely as it wore on.
There was no announced at
tendance and estimates ranged from
1l.700 to 10000. The stadium seats
$4,000. No seats were sold in the
temporary bleachers, but the reg

When the ticket sale closed Fri
day evening Navy had a stable
batch OF pasteboards on its hands,
so 1t invited every uniformed Boy
Scout in Annapolis to attend. The
kids enjoyed the afternoon more
than the Middies.

Approval Is expected soon from Washington for new half million dollar project for. the further de- velopment of Danbury's Municipal airport, WPA Administrator How ard Staub stated today in review ing the progress of the Connecticut WPA's wartime program.
 Enlargement of such smaller fields as the Danbury airport, the town of Windham's airport at Willimantic and the state-owned Trumbull field at Groton is considered of even greater military importance than additional work at larger airports.
 Included in the funds for the new Danbury project is a special allow ance of $235 ,00O for non-labor use. Total allocation of WPA funds for this project is $524,132, while the town of Danbury, as sponsor, has pledged $77,173 more.
 The new project provides for com- pletion of two landing strips already under construction and development of third landing strip. The work includes clearing and grubbing, grading and drainage; only the pav- ing of runways will remain to be done.
 Soon to be submitted to Washing ton is a new project for the town of Windham's airport, for which the CAA has allowed $125,0O0 and the WPA similar amount for non labor use. Plans are also being made for additional work at Irum- bull field, Groton, for which there is WPA non labor allowance of $1OO,OOO.
 Work is already in progress at New Ravens Municipal airport in East Haven and Hartfords Brain ard field and new work is contem- plated at Bridgeport's airport. The airport under construction at Fort Wright, Fishers Island, is nearing completion.
 Among the new projects asked of WPA by the War Department is one to build 8 rifle range, extend the hospital road, provide emergency sand bag protection, construct plane shelters and do drainage work at the Windsor Locks Army Air Base.

 Although the government provides libraries in the larger camps, the small units have no libraries at all, and in most large camps the de- mand for recreational reading far exceeds teh supply.

URGES ELECTION
 OF JOHN MONAGHAN
Secretary of State Speaks at Enthusiastic Meeting
 in Derby

Speaking at an enthusiastic Mon agan for Congress" meeting in Derby last night, Mrs. Chase Going Wood- house, Secretary of the State, urged the election of John s. Monagan to Congress, because he is truly and wholeheartedly in support of Presi- dent Roosevelt's war program and foreign policy"
 Support of President Roosevelt re- quires much more than a spontan- eous "yea" for armaments in time of war, said Mrs. Woodhouse. "If we will look back we will see that it was a Democratic Congress that pushed through the program of re- ciprocal trade agreements which promoted and fostered the hemis phere solidarity so vital to the United States at this time" Mrs. Woodhouse called upon the men and women in the audience, more than 100, to work diligently in the cam paign for MT. Monagan because "he is the type of representative the Fifth District and Connecticut need in Washington in. war time and in the peace that will follow. He has the education and the background required of Congressman and he is capable of serving district which has become accustomed to able representation"
 MT. Monagan spoke briefly, out lining the program of rallies and campaign plans which have been completed, and calling for united Democratic effort on January 29.
 Other speakers included Mrs. Henry A. Hayden, Waterbury; Sen ator Vincent Kiernan, Mayor c. F. Caldwell and Representative Alton Degnan. Derby; Representative Ed ward Clancy, Derby, Judge John J. O'Connell and members of the Ladies and Mems Democratic Clubs of Derby
