~ bers of the third class at the
~ Naval Academy, taking part
in varsity sports for their
first season, have made a record this
Winter which has never been excel
led by class at such a stage in its
course
The particular star is Ray Thomp-
son, Baltimore youth, who is the
leading scorer of the intercollegiate
Swimming Association UP to this
point. in the season, winner of every
event in which he has taken part
and establisher of a new intercol-
legiate record for the 50-yard free
style.
other members of this class who
have made the varsity in the first
season are: Fred Ashworth and
Jahncke, sprinters: McCampbell,
fancy diver; Morton and Jordan,
breast stroke: Bert Davis and Berto-
let, middle distance swimmers.
Probably the next distinguished
athlete of the class is Elliott Lough-
lin, from Philadelphia. Loughlin, q
forward, was high scorer on the ex-
cellent basket ball team this season.
He is also a brilliant tennis player.
In fact, the basket ball team was
at the beginning Of the season al
most a third class aggregation. In
addition to Loughlin, there were
three regular members of the team
from the class. They were HASTEN,
center, and Bedell and Hagemeister,
guards. About midseason the latter
resigned from the academy.
Charles Curtze, a Pennsylvania
midshipman, Is easily the star OF the
Nays crack gymnastic team. Head
Coach Mang, who has developed
many champion gymnasts and lead
ing teams, believes that CurtZe is
sure to be the best all-around per-
former who has represented the
Naval Academy.
Among those who have represent

ting team this season have been
Ralph Styles, lis pounds; Garrett
