The following was clipped from the Sunday Philadelphia Record: “ANNAPOLIS, Mbp., Jan, Naval Cadet, A. J. Cruse, of Pennsylvania, of the 4th class, who was dismissed last year for refusing to inform on a cadet ¢ with hazing, and who was re. appointed, has again been dismissed from the Academy for direct disobe. dience. He asked for Christmas leave and was refused. He took it, leaving the Academy on Christmas evening, and did not return until Sunday, Decem- ber 27." Upon furtheg inquiry it was learned that the above statement was correct. The young man is from Bellefonte and this is his second and, without adoubt, his final dissmissal from that institu. tion. It will be remembered that he was sent home about a year ago for re fusing to inform upon some of his class. mates who had been engaged in hazing. His reappointment was obtained after much difficulty and it was hoped that it would be a warning not to disobey orders in the future. During the past year Andrew made a noble record in the Acaderny, as he stood at the head of aclass of some eighty students and could lave kept that position in his class had he remained. It is a great mistake for the young man with such ability to recklessly throw away the opportunity of his life. Such is the case, and it should serve a warning to other young men. a A , | to the aa} would | for the purpose of callinga haltto |T the | teachers of this county and the public. | Was it Murder?
