IN MEMoRIAM

In loving remembrance of our dear
wife and mother, Mrs. Hester Ann
Turner, who departed this life, one
year ago, December 26, 1929.
Peacefully sleeping, resting at last,
The worlds weary trouble and trials
are passed.
In silence she suffered,
In patience she bore,
Till God called her home
To suffer no more.
Sadly missed by her husband, Isaac

An occult paper truly claims that
every man is where he is by the law
of his being; the thoughts that he
has built into his character have
brought him there-that in the very

out of harmony with their sur

NAVY PLEBE SQUAD
is REDUCED TO IS

ANNAPOLIS, Md, August 3o.--A
squad of IS, II backfield candidates
and 23 for 1.-THE line, is the first selec-
ton of Johnny Wilson, from his big
detachment of plebes who are trying
for the class team.
Practice has indicated that there are
a number of promising running backs,
but Wilson has found them deficient in
blocking and other elements of back
field work. And Wilson Is directing
practice along these lines. Many big
fellows are candidates for forward
positions, and line of unusual weight
for first-year eleven is indicated.
Among those who reported today
were Hampson, the big punting back
from Severn School, Maryland inter-
scholastic champions last year, and
Denenhower, q 200-pound linenan.
Another candidate for the plebe team
is Chung-Hoon, fleet Hawaiian, also
back on the Severn School eleven last
year.
Knute Rockne Notre Dame foot bali
coach, watched the practice this after
noon. He came to Annapolis to confer
with the Naval Academy officials ovef

played at South Bend on October II.

contests.
Several of the games scheduled have
the added flavor of intersectional in
terest. Maryland, which has been CIV
ing Yale frequent upsettings, goes to
New Haven on October 4, instead of
late in November as In the last few
seasons. On the following week end
Virginia plays Pennsylvania on Frank
lin Field for the first time in six years
washington and Lees game with West
Virginia comes on the same date Duke
goes up to engage Villanova on Oc-
tober "a.
Maryland has an unusual combina-
ton of games for late November. First
Navy is met in Annapolis on Saturday.
November %, then Johns Hopkins is
played in the Baltimore Stadium on
Thanksgiving day and to wind up the
week the Old Liners start out for Nash
vile, where they engage Vanderbilt two
afternoons later.
AS If these three games within week
were not enough, the Marylanders again
wait to close their season until Deem
Der 8, when they play Western Mary
land In Baltimore. Curly Byrd has
prospects for strong team, but even
though 1t may get through the early
part of the season with success 1t can
naEdly nope TO sail safely over the rough
places near the end of the voyage.
North Carolina also has a hard row
to hoe, though Chuck Collins does not
have to put his charges through such
quick combination as Maryland must
face. But on five successive Saturdays
the Tar Heels must take on five of
the strongest teams in the South.
With the possible exception of the
Carolina eleven, Virginia Tech and
Maryland are generally regarded as
having the best prospects in the South
Atlantic States, The Tar Heels 20 to
Blacksburg on October and then re-
turn home to entertain the Old Liners
on the next week end.
Then follow in order three Of the
fastest combinations in all of Dixie.
Carolina plays Georgia in Athens on
october Is and Tennessee in Knoxville
on October "a. With hardly time to
catch their breath they must be at
home to Georgia Tech in Chapel Hill
on November l.
If North Carolina can get over those
five hurdles without tripping there1l
be no one to deny the right of Coach
Collins to the title Of Miracle Man"

STRONG BACKF|ELD
RELIANCE OF NAVY
Expects Attacking Power in
Spite of LoSSeS-Counts
Heavily on Hagberg.

A NNAPOLIS, Md, August 30.--For
~ the success Of the Naval Acad-
n envy foot ball team during the
coming season, the coaches are
relying greatly upon the between-sea-
son work which has been done 10
develop backs to take the place OF the
valuable players lost through gradua-
ton.
Three of the most important meIIl-
bers of the backfleld last season must
be replaced. The list includes Joe Cliff
ton, powerful fullback; Art Spring, the
most reliable running back during most
Of the season, and Joe Bauer, versa
tile and experienced player.
However, the serious blow dealt the
squad by the graduation of these play
ers and the necessity of breaking in
others for their places were realized
during the latter part Of last season,
and steps were taken to meet the sit
uation.
A big, powerful back was needed to
take the place of Clifton, great de-
fensive player and smashing line hitter,
Such a player, it is believed, was found
in Hagberg, who had done his playing
in the line.
HaSDerg SHOWS PrOm1Ses
Hagberg, who weighs 100 pounds and
has strength and activity, was tried
out in the backfleld the latter part of
last year and showed promise.
The coaches express confidence IN
him and believe that he will prove the
same kind Of a support to the line as
Clifton.
Fortunately, Kirn, who is stiIl avail
able, developed finely as running back
toward the latter part of last season
and will be expected to take the place
of Spring as the Nays outstanding
runner with the ball.
Dale Bauer is likely to do much the
same kind of work as his brother Joe,
| though not so large and strong. How
ever, he is an excellent passer and run
ner and good defensive player. 1t Is
also possible that Castree may be in
Guided in the first string backfield.
Cannon Is Experienced.
The veteran of the backheld is
Johnny Cannon, who will have his last
season as Naval Academy player and,
| it is hoped, his best. Cannon, who
made fine showing In 1928, was handi-
! capped by injuries last season.
A fine runner and pasSer, Cannon
also has a good foot ball head and may
direct the playing of the team In the
big games.
Though circumstances may cause
changes in the program, the present
plan is to form the first string back
field from a group of five-Gannon,
Hagberg, Kim, Bauer and Castree.
In view of its heavy schedule, In
which the high points are games
against Notre Dame, Maryland, Ohio
State, Southern Methodist, Princeton
and Pennsylvania, the Navy has hne
string of reserve backfleld players.
The list includes Davis, Antrim, Erck,
McCracken, Tschirgi, Camp bell,
Braught, Williams, Binns, 10th, Hurley
4 Konrad, Fleck, Samueis and Others

bers in Virginia, North Carolina and
Maryland
North Carolina leads the list with
nine games listed against members of
the Dixie loop-V. p. l., Maryland,
Georgia, Tennessee, Georgia Tech,
North Carolina State, South Carolina,
Virginia and Duke. Virginia will play
seven, Duke. Maryland and v. P. 1.
each six. and North Carolina State v.
M. I. and washington and Lee each
five.
Labor day will be real day of work

Kentucky Is FavOrite.
The eight Conference teams in the
South Atlantic sector have listed is

In addition there are two games with
Clemson, South Carolina and Wander
bilt, and one each with Georgia, Georgia
Tech, Florida, Mississippi A. and M.

The criss-crossing of members within
Virginia, North Carolina and Maryland
is knitting this double quartet together
more closely than ever before. Duke,
the most recent addition to the mem
bership, Is taking on several additional
foes
Virginia recalls the days of more
than 80 years ago, when Trinity was
one OF her most feared rivals, by going
to Durham for game on october 4.
On Thanksgiving day Duke and Wash
ington and Lee begin series which
may some day rank high in public in
terest, along with the traditional Vir-
