(AP) Two regulars on last year's Navy football team former fullback Fred Frarfco from the offensive and erstwhile linebacker Tony Correnti from defense say their successors are a "better all-around squad." Both finished their college careers as Navy juniors with a team record of six victories, one tie and two defeats. Franco had used a year's eligibility at Brown and Cor- Venti at St. Louis before becoming They agree that Coach Eddie Erdelatz seems better off from the viewpoint of material generally.

"This year, there appears to be a substitute ready behind everyone." say Franco and Correnti. "The backfield generally is stronger," predicts Franco whose four touchdowns and rushing gain of 691 yards led the Navy last year. Joe Oattuso, 175-pounder from Clarksboro, N. Is stepping into Franco's running shoes while continuing his linebacking work of last year. "He if a brainy runner and should make the grade on offense," believes Franco.

"At the halves, Bob Hepworth (Derry, N.H.) and Phil Monahan (Burlingame, Ca. are good runners. John Weaver (Wausau, Wls.) also can run as well as pass at quarterback." Coach Erdelatz can call for more speed when the situation demands from two sophomore halfbacks Bob Craig (Altadena, Cal.) and George Thomas (Havertown, Pa.) As for defense, Correnti simply points out all seven on the fronl line are letter winners. Six of the seven were first string in 1952 on a line which ranked second nationally in rushing defense. This Includes Steve Eisenhauer (Sheffield, Pa.) who made All- America last year for playing the center of a five-man defensive line.

The principal source of the all around strength which impresses Franco and Correnti are 13 sophomores who comprise one-third of the squad. Their development as backstops seems to be the key to Navy's success. Step Saver With Eye Appeal OPEN HOUSE THUR. FRI. SAT.
