These players, who took part in the Washirigton game, will graduate in June: Carney, captain and left guard; Mathews, center; Walker, right tackle: Brown, right end; Me- Kee, quarterback: Devens, left half- back; Cullen, right halfback; Barche fullback: Bailinger, halfback; Viewes, tackle. All but the three last named started the game. The Navy, in fact, antieipates a stronger line than it had this ¥ Por several positions, notably th ends and tackles, such a keen compe- tition is expectsd that there should be difficulty in picking excellent reg- ulars and substitutes above the usual grade. Lentz {s expected to fiil the place left vacant by Carney, with Powell, Chillingworth and others as co testunts. — Lsvensky, on the other side, will be available for two more years. Zuber, the crew man, slated for center. Hutchins is anoth; candidate with all the physical re- quirements, Clyde and Shewell, tackles, ‘hoth have another yeargand Brant, a very promising man before he was injured, also will be back. Three very high- grade men from the plebe team, Wickhorst, Olsen and Kirk, however, are likely to give the oldér players a hard run. The situation as to the ends is even more satisfactory. Taylor will re turn and Stolz, who played regularly until he broke his leg, has another year. The plebe -ends, Hardwick, formerly captain of Virginia Poly, and #pecht, were very high-gra flangers, while Bernet, Caldwell and others, substitute varsity ends, im- proved rapidly. and should be exoel- lent performers next season. A great amount of work will have to be done to get the backfield in shape. Shapley, probably the best ground gainer on the team in 1823, and Flippin will be the nucleus. The latter is the best line hitter on the Navy squad, but will have to ove, come a tendgney to getting mixed on lays. P orsberg, Query and Hearst, of the varsity substitutes, will return, while Albertson and Lewls were the most promising backs of B squad. The plebe group, however, furnishes a long 1ist of promising backs, includ- jng Hamilton, Maloney, Campbell, Celdwell, Hubert-Jones, Born, Eck Condra and Organ.

Basket Ball Tips What is the correct method of pass- ing a boll? Answered by DANNY McNICHOL, Former Unmiversity of Peansylvania captain and captaln of the ali-Amer- fean basket ball team. Characterized by many mpo; weriters as ‘“the greatest basket ball player of all time” From experience and observation, I would say that the two-handed pass is the correct method of passing a basket ball. The one-handed pass can be made longer and sometimes with the greater force, but this ad- vantage is easily overcome. First of all, I would say that a “lob” or “dropping” pass is practical so few times in a game that we will assume all passes made on a direct line. It seems to me that a two-handed pass is much more accurate, can be made much quicker and the player is a lot more securc in possession of the ball at the time of passing. With this pass the ball can be received and passed in practically the same motion. # This pass is very easily mastered and is made with the ball secure in both hands, passed from the chest with a wrist and elbow motion to- gether with a slight motion forward to get the weight of the body back of the pass.
