At ONCE
BY George A. Simpson

phasized Fred Rice, veteran
Catholic University basketball
coach, whose Cardinals grapple
with the Naval Academy five
this afternoon at Annapolis,
Nd, at 2 80 o'clock.
1.-The main fault with my team this
year is that the players lack conf
dence. They're always looking over
to me for instructions and college
basketers should be trained to meet
situations as they arise on the floor
They must think fast and be on their
feet.
"A coach must have men who can
use their own judgment. AS far as
the game itself is played, a coach,
except for making suhstitutions and
lecturing to the players during the
halves, can go home. Situations
change frequently in basketball and
the players must be prepared to meet
such changes.
"NO matter how defined pro-
gram a team may carry into the
game at the start" added Rice,
"the players must be able to
think for themselves on the
floor and handle their own prob
lens.
"And another thing is that my
present team doesn't take the game
seriously. This may be due to the
fact that the players are green
and have little college experience.
We have strong defense, but
sadly need a better working
offense."
Rice took time out to admit that
he was actually undecided as to his
starting lineup against the Mid
shipmen. He has been using va
rious combinations in the practice
sessions for the past two nights, but
is not satisfied with any.
He minated that the team would
begin with Capt. Tut" Amann
