NAVY HAS A STRONG
BASKET BALL SQUAD

ANNAPOLIS. December 5.-A very
promising basket ball squad is work
ing every afternoon at the Naval
Academy under the direction of Lieut..
Comdr. Herbert w. Underwood. head
coach. and Lieut.. Harry Deringer, his
assistant.
The season opens next Saturday in
New York against Columbia, and a
fine series of games has been ar
ranged. ending with the Army con.
test. to take place at West Point on
February 81.
Capt. Leggett, fine guard, and
Day. who played both forward and
center acceptably. were the only play
ers lost by graduation. Three regu-
lars, Parish, Craig and Shapley, are
again available, and there is a wealth
of material in the reserves of last sea
son and the strong plebe team.
Craig. when in form, which he gen
orally Is. IL undoubtedly one of the
best long range shots among the col
lege players. Parish Is also an eX-
cellent forward of long experience,
and there is a high-grade forward in
Signer. Hamilton, the foot ball man,
is another good forward. and Shuber
made an excellent record on the plebe
Ave last year.
Shapley, Jones and Graf are in the
running for the guard positions. with
Flippin and, Elliott as excellent re-
serves. 1t viii be close fight among
this trio, as all are we'll up in the
ranks of college basket ball guards.
Coach Underwood's great problem
is securing satisfactory center.
johnson is now playing the position.
He is a fast. active player, but lacks
height. Bernet, the high Jumper. and
Hull. center on the plebe's five last
year. are also candidates for the place.
Bagdanovitch. a member of the plebe
team of last year and a substitute end
on the varsity foot ball team. will
also try for the place and has plenty
of height.

AS far as Roland Mackenzie IL con-

be proud to have him selected as a

parents would not offer objection, al

The match was fred In prone posi-
ton entirely. Regulation decimal tar.

expressed themselves as being much
impressed by the initial performance
of their markswomen and by the gen

which prevailed. Arrangements were
considered for a return encounter, to
be staged at the Central.
Central's five high scores which
won the contest were: Betty Rice, 99;

beat their fair rivals by / point in a
shoulder-to- shoulder contest on the
school range. They collected total
of 496 points to the girls 495.
Betty Amos and Thomas Lyons each
turned in perfect scores.
The girls were allowed the best five
out of six scores. Julia Behring and
Alma Essex were tied with SO for fifth
place. Miss Behring conceded her po-
sition to Miss Essex, as she had won

the medalist; Watts Gum, the run

semi-finalist. who beat Mackenzie
and performed sensationally through

Previous Walker cup teams have
included several men whose records
hardly entitled them to places on the
international aggregation that rep

enough, Dr. Q. F. Willing. a man un-
known in the East. who was selected
on the representations of the Far
