The Navy football team is hoping senior reserve slotback Eddie Martin, who was stricken with a sudden illness, will recover and rejoin the Midshipmen by the time they open their season against East Carolina on Sept. 2. Martin, who reported to the academy last week complaining of severe stomach pain, has been diagnosed with cancer. The Capital of Annapolis reported yesterday that Martin, now resting at the National Naval Medical Center, was to begin chemotherapy treatment for lymphoma. "Anytime something like that happens, there's no good way to hear it. You could tell Eddie didn't feel well," Navy coach Paul Johnson said.

Kay O'Connor, a self-described "old fashioned conservative lady," recently admitted that she "does not celebrate the enactment of the 19th Amendment in 1920" - a woman's right to vote. "We have a society that does tear families apart," said the Republican legislator, who originally entered the workplace to assist with her daughter's medical expenses. "I think the 19th Amendment, while it's not an evil in and of itself, is a symptom of something I don't approve of. The 19th Amendment is around because men weren't doing their jobs, and I think that's sad."
