Next Wednesday, the u. S.
Naval Academy will observe the
Tooth anniversary of its official
opening on October 10, 1915, when
fifty midshipmen enrolled at old
Fort Severn, Annapolis.
West Point was opened in 1902
but from the time of the establish
ment of the Navy Department in
1898 until 1845 the proposed naval
school was the butt of political
wrangling.
Throughout all those years,
groups of youngsters destined to
become naval officers We're placed
on vessels and learned the hard
way. Some were as young as seven
and eight and they were kept so
busy that they rarely studied.
Several private naval schools ex-
listed but few boys had time to at
tend them.
At periodic intervals, the mid
shipmen came up for examination
before board of naval officers
which sat at old Barnum's Hotel
in Baltimore and dictated promo
tons.
In 1888, Secretary Paulding es-
tablished an eight months coach
ing course, at the Naval Asylum
near Philadelphia. When Chauvenet
became its entire faculty he pulled
the class upstairs out of the base
ment and procured few nautical
instruments. Secretary Henshaw
approved Chauvenet's plan for a
full curriculum but the next Sec
rotary of the Navy revoked them.
And year after year, Congress
turned a deaf ear to the Navy
Department, naval officers and the
midshipmen themselves.
Steam power changed the pic
ture in 1889. Pressure on Congress
increased. But it took George Ban
croft to outwit the Legislators and
put Chauvenet's plan into effect.
In August, 1845, he wrangeed the
obsolete Fort Severn out of the
War Department, selected seven
teachers from the 25 then at sea
with middies (but retained their
full salary appropriation of $685.
200 a year, and opened the school.
Old Fort Severn on Windmill
Point was the site of a mansion
built by Simon Duff in 1720. He
sold the property to Walter Du-
lany in 1853. The Government pur-
chased it and surrounding land in
1903 and it was garrisoned during
the War of 1912. Under Bancroft,
Commander Franklin Buchanan of
Baltimore organized the new
school and become the first super
intendent.
During the Civil War, the school

The original class of 80 mid
shipmen has grown to more than
1000. Magnificent buildings have
replaced the old Army barracks
used by the first Naval Academy
students. But it has never out
grown the old political wrangling
which constantly plaques it.
