ANNAPOLIS, June 25.-While
the fields and gyms Of most Of the
colleges are tenantleSs this sum-
mer. athletics will be in full swing
at the Navy, and contests held in
many of lines Of sport.
BY the time the big new plebe
class approaches its final number.
more than half of the middieS
will be at the academy, and teams
in various lines representing that
class and the second. whose mem.
beers remain here during the sum-
mer for practical work, will meet
outside teams in many lines.
While the opponents Of the local
teams will not be representatives
of colleges, but club teams with
which the Navy has no special
rivalry, there will be some good
matches during the season, and
there particular importance will
be in the practice which the com.
ing Navy athletics win have and
which will be greatly to their adj
vantage when the regular season
comes around.
Show Promise
Members of the second class had
their first season of varsity ath-
letics last year, and while only
few made varsity teams, many
of them showed much promise,
and the training they will get this
summer, for the most part under
the varsity coaches, should polish
them off so that they will be USE
full players next season.
Summer athletics also serves to
give a first line on the athletes OF
promise in the new plebe class
This wear, with a class which Will
number about 900, many Of whom
havu made some reputation in
sports before entering, the new
middies will be watched with par
ticular interest, and those likely to
develop into varsity men will be
spotted and given a start.
Attention viii be given to row
ing, and crews will be formed from
each of the four companies, the
season ending with a race for the
class championship. This will
afford an excellent start in the
aquatic sport, and members Of
the varsity squad belonging to the
second class will assist with the
coaching.
Football in August
Football practice will start for
the fourth class toward the latter
part of August, and, though there
will be no regular practice for the
second classmen in advance Of the
date set for the report of the
whole squad-September 8-play-
