NAVY COACHES SAY
NO POSITIONS ARE
SETTLED ON TEAM
Disappointed at Showing of
Backfeld Against Buck
nell Saturday.

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Nov. 12.-The un-
satisfactory work of the Naval Acad-
emy backtield against BuCknell on
Saturday has made the coaches most
uncertain as to the finar arrangement.
1t has been hoped that the four best
men had been picked, and that the
remaining three weeks before the Army
game could be spent in rubbing them
into shape and establishing concert of
action among them, but II Is manifest
that the backfield combination must be
stronger than IL was on Saturday or
an Army victory will be foregone
conclusion. The coaches told the mem
bers of the squad plainly yesterday af-
ternoOn that none of the positions wHG
settled, and that the men who show
ed the best performances would be the
ones that would start the Army game.
There was special disappointment At
the weakness of Captain Rodes and
Leonard in handling punts. Handling
punts had been considered the strong
away off on Saturday. and his weak
ness In this line as well as that Of
Leonard's contributed largely to the
Navy's poor showing.
Nichols will be given a thorough
tryout this week, and by many he 10
considered a more reliable ground
gamer than Leonard. The team would
miss Leonard's punting badly. How
ever, H. Harrison did fair work or
Saturday. as did Ingram and Failing.
All OF these are big men, and two Of
the trio are rather sure of finding
places behind the line.
