scrimmage, the frosh set the
varsity back as the varsity tried
to gain ground through use Of
plays sprung from the formation
taken after the shift of the eight
units. AS a football man, I felt
that the shift, complicated as it
is, was a bit too much for the
type of material available to the
coach. I made mental note and
decided I'd mention the matter to
the coach, after the scrimmage.
At the conclusion of the rough
work, the coach joined me and
we strolled back to the gym. On
the way I recalled the mental
note I had made, relating to the
complicated shift, and I said to
the coach:
coach, I notice that you're
using the Hanley shift. Don't
you think, Coach, that this
eight-man shift is bit too COM
plicated for your team? Don't
you think that it sort Of stops
your team?"
The coach responded:
"HeIl, no! 'Tain't the eight
man shift that bOthers us. No,
indeed! If you want to know
the truth Of it, it's that 11-man
defense that stops us!"

high, It's chief obstacles, are on the
schedule this year. The Navy
meets Penn State at Annapolis on
February 5, and closes it's sched.
ule against Lehigh at Bethlehem
on March 6.
-Four Other Matches
Four other matches are on the
schedule, which covers an unusual
range of territory. North Caro-
lima, wrestling at Annapolis on
January 80, is another Southern
team, with Pennsylvania on Feb
ruary 13, and Harvard, on Febru.
ary 20, as other home matches.
The home season will end Febru.
ary 81, when Nebraska will send
its hardy team to Annapolis. its
first meeting with the Navy grap-
piers. The match promises to be
one of the high spots on the
Navy's winter season.
After a preliminary cut, the
team has been reduced to 80
members, just an average of four
at each weight. Dick Rogers, 118
pounds. Steve Mann, 155 pounds,
and Heber Player, unlimited, are
the veterans of last year.
Did Not WreStle
John Merryman, also an 155-
FOUNDER, who did not wrestle last
year on account of an injury, has
been elected captain, so that there
are two good men at the weight.
It is possible, however, that either
Merryman or Mann may make the
next higher or lower weight. Nor
man Kleiss, who wrestled one bout
at 1875 pounds last year. is also
available.
At ITS pounds, two football men,
Ray Dubois, captain-elect of the
eleven, and Alphonse Minvielle, a
guard, are contending. At 155
pounds, Jack Dyson, John Carl
son and Dick Johnson are the
chief contenders. Bailey, Conrad,
Abeel and Harmon, all new men,
are working for honors at 126
pounds.
The outlook is for a strong and
well-balanced Navy team that has
a reasonable chance of taking the
Eastern leadership this season.

GA6 dyOUI'
I gathered the camera-man and
we started for the campus of the
colored college. We arrived a bit
early and spent half an hour
browsing around the campus, an
astonishly beautiful campus, at
that.
It was early in the season, but
the team had been hard at it for
about five weeks. Inquiries
around the campus elected the
information that the colored
school expected it's best team in
years, but in the very first game
the highly-touted eleven had gone
down in defeat, much to the sur
prise and chagrin of the student
body.
The two of us strolled over to
the gym and introduced ourselves
to the graduate manager. He, in
turn, introduced us to the grid
coach, an affable colored gentle
man with a keen sense of humor
and not at all upset by the fact
that his highly -touted team, that
is, highly-touted by the student
body, had gone down in defeat in
the opening game. On our way
to the practice gridiron, the
coach explained his teams loss in
logical fashion, laughingly refer
ring to the incident as of no par
ticular Importance.
Ten minutes after our arrival
at the practice gridiron, the
coach called his men together and
sent them through their PAGES.
After a grass drill of some 10 to
IS minutes duration, he ordered
a signal drill, which lasted about
80 minutes. Then he called on
the student-managers to bring
forth head-pieceS and explained
there would be Commute Scrlm-
mage.
The cameraman got pictures
of the teams stars and a couple
of action shots of the scrimmage.
In the meantime, made notes
on the various players-backs,
tackles, ends, etc.
I noted that the team used the
Northwestern shift, developed to
such a high degree of perfection
by Dick Hanley, when that great
coach was at Haskell Institute
and afterwards at Northwestern
University, Evanston, Ill.
This Northwestern shift calls
for the shifting, in unison, of
eight attacking units. It is not
an easy shift to master, and to
develop it a coach must work
long hours to perfect his men to
take their steps in the shift with
military precision.
