Hamilton 10 Move Up
To Director S Post,
Succeeding Taylor
By Froncis E. Stonn

The Naval Academy's coaching
policy, one of the most widely dis
cussed sports topics Of 1947, prob
ably will undergo q change within
the next 12 hours when Rear Ad-
miral James L. Holloway, jr., su-
Iperintendent at Annapolis, is due
to make an announcement based on
the recommendation of former
Navy athletic stars who met as
special panel in a two-day session
last week.
The Navy will drop its policy of
using officer coaches in the top spot
is most likely, although Admiral
Holloway declined to comment this
morning. II is expected that Capt.
Thomas j. Hamilton, who returned
to the Academy to coach in 1916
and 1947, will be elevated to the post
of director of athletics and charged
with the task of hiring a civilian
head coach for 1948.
Taylor Due to Go to Sea.
Capt. Edmund (Whitey) Taylor,
present director of athletics, is due
to receive orders for sea duty in
June and Capt. Hamilton had been
groomed as his successor even be-
fore he began his present tour of
duty at Annapolis as head coach.
Who the civilian coach might be
Is matter of speculation. It had
been rumored that Jim Tatum of
Maryland might be approached, but
this Il. believed unlikely. The names
of dozen crack coaches have been
mentioned in earlier unohdcial par
leys, including that of Frank Leahy
of Notre Dame.
The last civilian or professional
coach" at the Naval Academy also
was Notre Dame graduate, Rip
Miller. He now is line coach.
Meeting last Monday and Tues
day as members of Admiral Hollo-
ways special panel were some of
the most glittering names in Nays
sports history. They included Rear
Admiral John E. (Billick) Whel-
chel, Rear Admiral Edward c. Even,
Capt. Frank Ward, commandant of
Midshipmen and president of the
Naval Athletic Association; Donald
w. Walker, president of the Naval
Academy Alumni Association; Capt
Taylor, Capt. Robert Pirie OF the
Executive Committee of the NAA,
Capt. Henry H. Caldwell and
Comdr. Slade Cutter.
C<uls~J r~r oLS~~ Co4r-
They studied the coaching situa-
tion at Annapolis and presented
their recommendations to Admiral
Holloway. The latter said at the
time he believed an annual meet
ing of such a group would be bene-
f1cial to all Academy sports.
If Navy hires a civilian coach, is
expected, the Academy will be an
swering criticism of the present Off
cer-coach policy, a criticism which
developed strongly during the last
two seasons, when Navy won only
two games, lost 15~and tied one.
The criticism was not directed at
Capt. Hamilton, one of the most
thighly regarded coaches in the
tcountry, but at the policy of return
ling an officer from sea duty, football
rusty, to compete against profess
sionals.
Capt. Hamilton was unavailable
for comment. 1t was stated that
he was out of town and was in

With Andy Kostecka's collegiate

Hoya First String to Start.
Tommy O'Keefe, who with Corley
started his court career at Notre
Dame under Hoya Coach Elmer
Ripley, who was on loan to the
Irish, has filled in for Kostecka and
scored Is and Is points in his last
two games as starting center.
The only common opponents OF
the teams to date have been the
Quantico Marines and Richmond
Georgetown beat the Marines, 61-54
at home, and the Spiders, 64-54, in
Richmond, without Kostecka, while
the Colonials edged the Marines

Richmond, 1858. It's bet your

edge, if there must be one, to George

to their record of II victories

why they should be favorites, while
Georgetown has won only seven
out of Is.
