that the chances were he'd proba-

day after weeks of speculation, al

west Pacific with his predecessor,
Capt. John E. (Billick) Whelchel.
Hagberg, back at his home in
the Ohio River steel town of Fol-
lansee for a short rest after a
tour of duty as submarine skipper
in the Southwest Pacific, gave
some thought to his new job during
an interview, and then said:

Navy powerhouse to eight victories
in nine games last year, used
single wingback formation with a

JOHNNIE FULTON
IS HOT ON TRACK
By HAROLD CLAAssEN

NEW YORK, Feb. IT. - w -
Johnnie Fulton, San Francisco's
slight runner, has shown plenty OF
determination in winning both his
starts on the Eastern boards this
winter but the youngster has
shown even more determination in
his iousts with the track promo

Right now he is booked for the
Halpln half-mile in the New York

would be punishment enough for

A triumph in Saturdays hall
would place him on a par with
lndiana's Charles Hornbostel who
successfully completed the trilogy
II 1895 and the late John Boricar
of Asbury Park, N. j., who did the
same in 1941 and 1912.
But even if he doesn't win Sat
,1rday he already is the equal OF
such foreign athletes as Paavo
Nurmi and Gunder Haegg, who
came to this country and dictated
the races in which they would run.
Not only has Fulton, At in the

Saying he expects to call the

ed that he knew he'd have to do
some thinking about the line. Six

ineligible because of the three-year
rule.
Nevertheless, the new coach is
inclined to agree with Whelchels
optimistic remark - that Navy is
headed for a big year.
