In Baltimore Harry B. Wolf, prom

OCTOBER 27 DATF
SET FOR “NAVY DAY”
Definite plans for observing “Navy!
Day" October 27, at the Naval Acad
emy have not yet been made. Every
day is "Navy Day” within the walls
of the institution and as yet no spe
cial observances of the date have been
arrang'd for.
The Secretary of the Navy, Mr.
Denby, has been invited to attend the
fcanqoiet to be held in Baltimore on
that date, when a naval parade will!
be given earlier in the day.
First hand information about the!
service by the men who direct tlie j
Navy’s activities is to be broadcasted
by radio for the sakes of the many,
families throughout tlie middle west'
who have sons in the Navy and no!
very definite knowledge of Navy life.!
Arrangements have been made by j
the Navy Department and the West-!
’.nghouse Electric and Manufacturing 1
Company whereby the broadcasting j
station “WJZ’Vat New ark, N. J.. will I
set aside one night a month to be|
known as “Navy night.” On this;
night the Navy will be represented j
by distinguished officers as speakers.
A concert w-ill also he furnished eitli-j
er by a navy yard hand or from some'
ship that may be in port.
The idea of having prominent na :
val officers speak directly to the peo
ple by means of radio is to give them
a better idea of the large amount of
work the Navy is called upon to do
in timrj of peace as well as to estab
lish a closer relationship between the
Navy and the inland centers of popu
lation.

Naval Academy for the trial of sev
*ral midshipmen, was in adjourn
ment today. It will 11* reconvened 10-
morrow, it is expected. Superintend
ent Wilson has designated Lieut. Hor
ire I). Clarke as counsel for Robin
ion.
Trial of Stuart II Hawkins, of
Springfield, Mass., on charges of al
'eged hazing of Ralph It. Pearson, or
'he fourth class, was completed late
yesterday afternoon, and the record
tnd findings will go to Superintendent
Wilson, the convening authority. The
guilt or innocence of Hawkins hinges
on the point of whether or not his ef
forts to teach Pearson the “Big
Hand,” part of an athletic yell, was in
the nature of an unfriendly act, or an
unauthorized assumption of authority”
by Hawkins, the latter being classi
led as "hazing” under the act of Con
gress. Pearson testified at the trial
that Hawkins dealt him a blow in the
hack with the first, shook him by the.
shoulders, and also swore at him
while at “mpsa” table. Hawkins flat
ly denied this, saying that lie merely
tried to teach Pearson the cheer None
of 11 witnesses examined supported the
testimony of Pearson.
The board detailed by Superintend
ent Wilson to investigate hazing in all
forms continued its probe today.
Another Cinter Arrc-t
Still another midshipman has been
placed under arrest and sent to the
station ship Reina Mercedes, presum
ably on charges (if hazing as develop
ed by the board of investigation ap
pointed by Superintendent Wilson,
which has been in session daily. He
is John B. Gilmer, first class, whose
home is in Kentucky.
l’enrson Testimony Unsupported
Uncorroborated testimony of Mid
shipman Ralph B. Pearson, of Pell
City. Aly., member of tho fourth class,
that Stuart Ik Hawkins, (if Spring
held. Mass., a first classman, struck
him a blow with his fist and used foul
language to him, and a flat denial en
tered by the accused, formed the main
points in the trial of Hawkins yester
day afternoon. The trial was complet
ed before the court adjourned, and*
the findings and verdict will he for
warded to Superintendent WilJJfy jftir ) i
review.
Three Specifications In C harge
The specifications contained in the
direct charge against Hawkins werfe ‘
that he subjected Pearson to “indig
nity, hardship and oppression.” The
offense, it was alleged, was committed
at “mess table No. Ill*,” in Bancroft
Hall, some time between Oetob"r l
and 11, but the date was established
more closely in course of testimony
as between October 5 and 7, at sup
per. Midshipman Pearson testified
that Hawkins asked him a question
which he could not answer, because
he did not quite understand it, where
upon Hawkins came over to his seat
at table, dealt him a blow in the hack
with his fist, and shook him by the
shoulders with the remarks “
you. I'll, shoty you how toikeep your
I ears open, and teach you, hfcw to act.”
Answering a question put by the
Judge Advocate or prosecutor, Lieut.-
' Coqj.. A. Murphy, witness said he
felt ‘humiliated by the act, and later
on said hie was “seared” to say any
thing because he did not know what
the consequences might be.
Tried To Teach Him Yell
It developed in course of the trial
1 that Hawkins had assumed the role
of instructing Pearson as to how ta
give the “Big Hand.” which is part of
a cheer given players on the football
field, the rhythym of which Pearson
seemed not to be able to learn.
son admitted this phase of the matter,
saying that ne wanted to learn the
cheer, but on cross examination re
mained steadfast that Hawkins had
struck him a blow with his fist and
applied the remarks stated above.
Prior to this incident, he said "he had
