VETERAN ARRAY MAKES MA Wy BASKETBALL
Wi|S0nDriI|s
Squad for
Debut

ANNAPOLIS, Dec. 17.-With
four of the regulars of last year on
hand, and Bob Ruge, forward OF
the 1884 team, who was kept from
the game last year by injuries,
taking the place of Capt. Carl
Fellows, the outlook at the Navy
is for a definitely better team than
the fair five of last season. Ruge
has been named team captain.
The squad also has been
strengthened by a big group from
the string plebe team of last sea-
son, some of whom look good
enough to give the regulars real
competition.
Vets Of Last Year
The veterans of last year include
Frank Shamer and Alan McFar-
land, forwards; Frank Lynch, CEN
ter, and Bill Ingram, guard. Ruge
is a forward, and there is chance
that the team will become an all
veteran aggregation by simply
shifting Shamer to a guard posi-
ton.
George Ghesquire, however, may
upset calculations by winning out
for a place. He is a big fellow
who played end in some of the
football games and looked like
real player at center for the plebeS
last season.
Frank Lynch, the towering tackle
of the eleven, who was regular
center last year and GheSquire will
fight it out and one may be used
in guard position. Ghesquire had
a season with the Michigan fresh
men before entering the Navy.
Additional Vets
Charley Putnam, a good guard,
and Maurice Rindskopf, a promis-
ing forward, are additional veter-
ans Of last year, while, in addition
to Ghesquire, Bob Gillette, Bob
Laney, Boz Angstedt and Larry
Gels, forwards, and Malcolm Roy
alt, Art Franks and John Dins-
more, guards, are the best of the
plebeS Of last season.
John Wilson, head coach, will be
assisted by Tom Hamilton, his
late chief at football; Marty
Karow, head baseball coach, and
Lieut.. George Carmichael.
The schedule opens with the
University of Baltimore on Janu-
ary 2, and the following additional
games will be played:
January 6, Gettysburg College;
8, Duke; 1S, Western Maryland;
Is, University Of Pittsburgh; 20,
University of Virginia; %, La
fayette; 27, Virginia Poly; 30,
SWarthmOre.
February 3, University of
Maryland; 6, Columbia, at New
York; 10, William and Mary; 13,
Pennsylvania State: 20, Army.
All but the Columbia game will
be played at Annapolis.
