Miller Will Stage Game Saturday
and Hold Contest in Various

Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star
A NNAPOLIS, April 27.-There will be
IA three more weeks OF the Spring
foot ball practice at the Naval
Academy, which began about the middle
OF March and which has been directed
assistants.
On Saturday there will be a scrim-
mage under contest conditions between
the team which Miller has selected as
his varsity and the strongest opposition
that can be assembled.
There also will be contests for medals
That Will include punting, drop and place
kicking. passing. center passing and re-
ceiving passes and kicks.
The varsity, which Miller has selected
as result Of the work done during the
practice period, is as follows:
Left end, Murray (captain); left
tackle, Brooks: left guard, Shaffer;
center, Harbold; right guard. Burns;
right tackle. Lambert; right end, Miller;
quarterback. Slack: left half, Baumber-
ger: right half, Walkup; fullback, Clark.
While Miller expects to use this line
up in the first game Of the Navy sched-
ule next season, some changes are pos
sible. For instance. Cutter. who is do
ing only light work on account Of a bad
knee, will probably go to right tackle.
There also is much uncertainty as to
the guards, though Burns, regular right
guard last season, Is now playing the
position. Much good material for guards
has developed during the practice,
among the leading candidates being
zabriskie, Springer, Vogel, Arnold and
Johnston.
Chung Hoon regular left half. lost
most Of the early practice. and Miller
states frankly that Baumberger has gone
ahead Of him and is likely to start next
season. Miller also is much pleased
with the work of Walkup the big boy
Of the backf1eld and the best blocker on
the squad. Clark, at fullback, also IS
fully meeting expectations and Is doing
particularly good punting.
