Mid-Year Graduation

Weokens Aeereeotions
For Spring Postimes

VI Sptin tuSiIiiiSS
Although mid-year graduation in
February will deprive Navy of all
its senior athletes it will carry on
with the regular full program of
sports, Comdr. Ward P. Davis, grad
uate manager, has announced.
Nor will early graduation mean
promotion to varsity rank of plebes,
the commander stated. All newcom-
ers at the academy will be obliged
to serve out their year of penance
as fourth classmen before being per-
mitted to indulge in varsity sports.
Navy will escape the tearing
down process in football and a por-
ton of the basket ball campaign.
Navy's football practice will be
affected. however, by an order re-
turning them to classrooms Septem-
ber 13 instead of the customary 30th.
Spring sports programs, as we'll as
all others, will continue to be
mapped out as before.
Some idea of the task ahead of
the Navy athletes may be cleaned
from 1904 sports programs:
