would he chosen. and the cleo
tion was unanimous. There was
a decided sentiment at the Naval
Academy that Mckee was not
only entitled to the basketball
captaincy on account of his work
in that sport. but that his serv-
ices in athletics generally made it
proper that he should lead team
in his final year at the Academy,
which will be next year.
Mckee acted as captain of the
team practically the entire sea-
son, Iecause of the continued in
disposition of Warren Parr. He
was the heaviest point-scorer of
the squad, caging the ball from
court under varying conditions,
and in shooting from the foul
line. he is rated among the lead
ers in that department Mckee is
