NEW YORK, Sept. 30.—New York
fan* have always admired the gen
•raNhlp of John J. McGraw, manager
! of the (Rants, and they give to him
without atlne full laudation for b'ing
ing together, in hia devious ways, an
aggregation of the present two-time
rhamplons, but none is remiss In
praising Hugliey Jennings, “Napo
leon'* Chief of Staff.
Hughey Is now considered a gen- j
ulm* New Yorker by the throngs that
tun filled the Pol* (Grounds nearly all
lesion Two years ago the rabid fol-1
, lowers of the (Hunts were a little
frigid to Jennings when he moved his '
baggage from Detroit and transplant-j
ed his grass picking habit and his
itlrring "E-yah” from Navin Field to
Harlem.
There was much talk then that Mo-
Craw wus preparing to retire from j
the active management, having ac- j
quired a part ownership in the club, I
and some of the funs were skeptical. I
notwithstanding the record Jennings
made w*th Detroit, winning three pen
nants there in 1907, 1908 and 1909
Moll raw kept on but Hughey dis
proved that old uduge about “too
many cooks."
Jennings was not n total stranger
to the older organization. In his ac
tive days he played with Baltimore,
I Brooklyn and Philadelphia, in the for- i
mer place with McGraw when the lat-1
ter was the best third baseman in
captivity Like McGraw, Jennings

ARMYELEVEN STARTS
SEASON TODAY W!
A DOUBLE-HEADER
The West Point Cadets will swing
into action on the gridiron on The
Plains up the Hudson today, but the
midshipmen will not make their debut
until Saturday of next week. The
Pointers are booked for a double
’ header, the opposing forces being
Springfield Training School and I*e
hannon Valley College. Navy's initial
toe will be Western Reserve.
News coming from the Point is to
the effect that Army expects to put a
representative team on the gridiron.
,A large squad has been at work and
there ia keen competition for the sev
eral positions.
The naval lads are rapidly rounding
into form under the tutelage of Head
Coach “Bob" Folwell and his staff of
assistants. Scrimmage has been the
order of practice every day thiß week
and a hard workout is scheduled for
this ufternoon. The Varsity team, aB
at present constituted, is both heavy
and fast and there is every reason to >
believe that the middies will have a
formidable combination.

LAUNCH MOVEMENT FOR
"BACK TO SCHOOL” HERE
_ J
Rotary Club Gets Behind Project
To Bring Delinquent Lads
Together
TO STRESS EDUCATION
The Rotary Club of Annapolis has
taken up in behalf of the city the
"Back to School” movement and a
campaign is to be launched among
young boys similar to those being
waged In many cities throughout the
country.
Such a campaign has for its ob
ject, prevailing upon boys who have
left elementary schools of learning
after completing the work of the
eighth grade, to return to school and
complete the four years of high
school work. There are scores of in
stances of the sort right here in An
napolis and the Rotary Club plans tp
lend every possible efTort to carry the
local campaign to a successful con
clusion. Boys leaving school after
finishing grammar school work are
teyond the pale pf the regularly em
ployed truant officer in a community,
hence the idea to better the standard
of education among the youth.
Committee Of Three Named
The lp|tßl Rotary Club has appoint- j
ed as a committee to further the proj- !
ect Rev. Edward D. Johnson, rector
of St. Anne’s Church; George W. Nor- 1
ris, county agent for Anne Arundel
county, and Oscar Dawes. The coun
ty school authorities are lending their j
co-operation in the campaign, as it i >
from these officials together with
school principals that the names of
delinquent school boys can best be se
cured. Tentative plans of the local
committee include arranging a “get
together” meeting at a supper to
which all boys who have not return
ed to complete their education in the
city high school will be invited. This
will probably be held along about the
middle of October. Speakers will be
secured to impress more firmly upon
the youths the tremendous advantages
of better education and to advise them
to return to school.
The campaign will be directed en
tirely to the situation here in the citj.
The work in other cities is meeting
with success and it is felt that the
movement will also gain fa\pr here.

FRENDS ELEVEN 27 TO 0
Exhibiting a powerful attack, Severn
School ran roughshod over Friends’
School, of Baltimore, yesterday, win
ning 27 to 0. The game was played
in Baltimore It was a content be
tween two green elevens, but with the
winners having so much the advant
age in weight that, although the
Quakers fought gameiy, they were
unable to withstand the charging of
the rival line. • Severn got off in the
lead in the first period, when, with the
bqcks each taking the ball in turns, a
steady t march down the field was
made on line plunges. In the second
quarter the Friends’ team rallied but
was unable to gain with any consis
tency.
Hubbard, with several long runs,
; and Turner, with his usual all-around
i playing at center, were the stars for
Severn, while Van Antwerp also
showed well at quarter. Shepherd
; and Thomsen were the stars for
j Friends’, making several long gains
; by means of the forward-pass route.

Issues Statement To Public
On Eve Of “Fire Prevention
Week," To Be Generally Ob
served Throughout Country
LIST OF DON’TS THAT
SHOULD BE FOLLOWED
Firo Prevention Week will be ob

ing thy coming week and In ennnee
tion with same City Fire Marshal
I George T. Basil calls the attention of
; 'he citizens of this community to the
grave results of carelessness and ig
j durance which go hand in hand as the
l chief causes of our huge fire waste.
“If any need of observing Fire Pre
vention Week is required, it resides
j n the most recent estimate by the
1 Actuarial Bureau or the National
Board of Fire Underwriters of last
year’s contribution to the national ash
heap $485,000,000,” says Marshal
Basil. “Only once in the 156 years
of this republic has this stupendous
figure been exceeded and that was in
i 1906, the year of the San Francisco
conflagration. The present burning
rate in this country is $923 a minute,
Ahich constitutes one of the heaviest
! drags on our economic progress. If
's is allowed to continue at that ap
nalling pace the country will, as time
! ’oes on. find itself seriously handi
capped in competing with the other
1 nations of the world.
“In addition to this appalling loss
if $485,000,000 in property, lament
able though as this enormous finan
cial waste is, it must never be per
mitted to obscure for one moment that
other and immeasurably higher sac
rifice; the wanton destruction of pre
cious life, for which each or us, to
the exact measure In which he is neg
lectful and unthinking, stamlß ulti
