nounced this week.
“With Lieut. Comdr. Glenn
Killinger at the helm and three
capable assistants in the persons
of Lieut. John Roning, Lieut. Paul
Bryant, and Lt. (jg) Glenn Pres-!
nell, the Pre-Flighters will have '
one of the finest coaching staffs in {
the nation,” Lieut. Comdr. Ing- j
wersen pointed out. “However,” i
he added, “there are many other j
officers attached to the Pre-Flight |
Program here who would be a
credit to any coaching staff in the
country. It was a tough proposi
tion selecting four from so many
with adequate qualifications.”
Coach Killinger succeeds Lieut.
Frank Kimbrough, head gridiron
coach last year who has been
transferred to naval duties else
where. A football, baseball and
basketball star while at Penn

New York Yankees. Prior to en
tering the Navy in 1942, he was
head coach of football and base
ball, and dean of men at State
Teachers College, West Chester,
Pa.
Coach Bryant, who is in charge
of the line, is a graduate of the
University of Alabama where he

ment, and there is a chance that
Lieut. Comdr. Glerin Killinger,
head football mentor, will be able
to field a team that will compare
favorably with the 1942 edition
which won eight, lost two and tied
one.
Thus far drills have consisted
of light work and the team will not
don heavy equipment until some
time next week. On the basis of
past records, prospects look un
usually strong in the backfield and
fair at center and the ends. Both
the guard and tackle spots are big
question marks, and Coach Kil-
’linger is hoping that some aid will
be forthcoming when the 59th
Battalion reports within the next
few days.
At this writing the starting
backfield reads Graham at quar
terback, Gene Sanders at left half,
W. E. Wilson at right half, and
Koslowski at full. Leading substi
tutes include Buell St. John and
Frank Aschenbrenner. Sanders
starred at the University of Texas,
Wilson is a McKeesport High
School (Pa.) lad, St. John played
freshman football at the Univer
sity of Alabama, and Aschenbren
ner attended Marquette Univer
sity where he received Associated
Press Honorable Mention All-
American in 1943,
Warren Anderson, captain-elect
at Colgate this year, and Richard
Sheehan, who played freshman
ball at the University of Missouri,
are the ends; Dale Pulver, Uni
versity of Minnesota, and Kermit
Atkinson, Furman University,
are the guards, and Leland Yager,
late of Rensselaer Institute, and
Austin Gandy, who prepped at
Jones Junior College in Missis
sippi, are the tackles. At center
is Flick.
