NAVY PREPARES FOR
ANOTHER VICTORY
Will Endeavor to Make Its
Fourth Straight Win From
Army This Year.

ANNAPOLIS. Nd, Sept, pa four.
| time win over the Army" is the slogar
at the Naval Academy today coaches
Howard and Reilly stating plainly thai
the Navy will start the campign to.
Ioorrow with all but two regulars q
last years victorious eleven on hand.
With the arrival of Big Babe Brown
by many critics selected as All America
guard, and several more regulars and
substitutes the Navy football sdual is
prctieaIly completed TO-DAY and will
start the regular practice tomorrow
Captain Gilchrist, All America end Is
fit and ready as are all of those who
are showing up.
The game next Saturday with the Uni:
versity of Pittsburgh Is the first con:
test OF the season and coaches Howard
and Reilly will have their hands full
with the candidates from now on until
the end of the week getting ready for
Joe Duff's big team which yesterday
rompcd away with the Ohio Northern
University by 67 to 0.
Nearly all of the men have taken on
weight since last season and il will
require something like two weeks Of
the hardest sort of work before the
team can be gotten in first-ciass shape.
The plebe eleven is likely to be almost
as heavy as the varsity and should
send US a good many stars for the early
season.
Dug Howard, who will direct the
Navy team this season as he has for
the past three years is not particularly
enthusiastic at this juncture. Coach
Howard has. had the experience of past
seasons !, Campaign 70 ga by, and
argues that the Navy team is starting
out too well to be assured OF success.
knowing that the Navy works well
under handicap the coach is not at
all optimistic, even though the candi-
oates look good at this juncture.
Jim Reilly, the former Yale halfback
ard coach of last -year's Washington
and Lee team, is new here but has
rapidly become popular. He is bust
recovering from appendicitis, and while
weak will be in good physical shape
shortly. Reilly's success with Wash
ington and Lee last year makes him
especially fit for the work cut out tor
him here this season.
The other coaches will not arrive
until later in the season and not until
the strength of the eleven is known be-
yond a doubt. Something like Il
hundred candidates will report for the
first workout tomorrow.
All nine of the football veterans Of
last season who are available this year
are at the Naval Academy today.
Brown. the big guard, and Ingram, left
end, being the last to report. The
others are, Captain Gilchrist. right end !;
Ratston, right tackle; Perry, center:
Howe, right guard: McReayey and
