HARDWICK WILL
 NOT REMAIN AS
 M|DDIES' COACH.
Wants Sea Duty Officials Silent on Civilians
 Chances

Annapolis, Md, Dec. 1-(UP)- Naval Academy officials were reluc- tant to discuss rumors today that a civilian would succeed Lieut.. Harry (Hank) Hardwick who is mot inter- ested" in another season as Middle football coach.
 Under no circumstances will l continue coaching football next year," Hardwick said. Before this past season began I informed my athletic department officials, that desired to discontinue coaching"
 In The Air
 A representative of the athletic department said Hardwick had "giv- en notice," but Capt. E. w. Mckee, director of athletics, said "the navy athletic association has come to no decision, and any reports of changes in the coaching staff are absolutely unfounded."
 A friend of his said Hardwick de- sired transfer to sea duty.
 Sentiment at the academy was di- vided on the question of officer coaching. The campus buzzed with rumors, one of them naming Jock Sutherland of Pitt to get the job.
 If civilian coach should be chos- en he would be the first since Edgar (Rip) Miller of Notre Dame gave way to It. Tom Hamilton after the 1933 season. Hamilton, who retired to sea duty when relieved by Hard wick in 1887. reportedly is opposed to officer coaches at Annapolis.
