NAVY TO HAVE CREW
IN OLYMPIC TRY-OUTS

ANNAPOLIS, Nd. December 90
Although Il date toward the close of
the school year would have been pre-
ferred by the Naval Academy to the
selection of June 1914, the intention
of the Naval Academy is to send a
crew to attempt to qualify to repre-
sent the United States. as the institu-
tion did successfully in 1928.
The academy officials would have
preferred a date toward the close of
May. so that, in case it lost, the mem
bers Of the crew would have been able
to start on the practice cruise. which
leaves Annapolis during the first week
of June. However, they will rejoin
their ships as soon as possible ii the
race is lost, but if they win they will
return to Annapolis to prepare for the
contest.
Dick Glendon, jr.. has as promising g
material this year as his father had
in 1920. when he developed a crew
which won the Olympic championship
for this country. Six of the regulars
of last year are available agaiu. five
of them having rowed together on the
plebe crew of the previous year.

know and play doubles better than
we do?
3. If so. why is it"

}. Is this aggressive attack the re-
suit of one man at the net when his
side is receiving service?
6. Should players be encouraged TO
team up together and play in many
tournaments?
