coach Expects Work Done in
Spring and Winter to Help
Condition.

ANNAPOLIS. Sent. 15.-The main
squad Of Naval Academy football play
ers will report for practice on Septem-
ber 20. Though they will have but two
weeks to prepare for the opening game
which will be against Georgetown on
October ., 1t is believed that a we'll
, prepared eleven can be put in the field.
This belief is based on the number
Of experienced men who are availa BILE
and the unusual amount of work which
was done during the winter and spring
in preparation for the work Of the. fall.
Then, the services of an unusually large
number of likely men in the new clasl
are available.
Early last winter as many Of the
football men who were available took
up light practice, while others were
engaged in some other line Of athletics
which kept them in condition. During
the spring. a number Of the football
men rowed or played baseball or la
crosse. but as the different sports fin
ished their season, the football men re-
ported to Lieut.. Jonas Ingram, the
head coach. for football work.
Toward the close Of the season, he
had the entire football squad for some
time. AS soon as the new class formed,
the football men worked out twice a
week, and for three weeks past daily
practice has been the rule. Thus, the
squad is more ready to get down to
real football than any previous squad

runner with the ball.
Naval coaches have followed the
policy Of using all backs, except their
quarters, at any position behind the
line. and they should have no difficulty
