1 TJUBLIC sentiment, or a wavo of liystcrla call it what you will reinstated
t ' Robert C. Folwell na conch of tho University of Pennsylvania football team
vt for 1917 Tho action,, taken by the fnculty commltteo on athletics Inst night 1"
rertorlng Fobvcll's name to tho lint of desirables cither kIiowb that tho members
, sWero convinced that they had acted hastily or the nttltudc taken ly the press and
KjyV P.uMlO was too much for them to combat. It Is possible and very probable that
B" ""'ittna faculty renresentntlvoQ hllKvoM nt tlrot thnt thov hml liiUrn the tirotier stand.
R . $maa Folwell should be dismissed. Perhaps tomo talcs of alleged wild escapades
f r t reached them nnd no doubt they thought that tho younper members on the team
would be stained morally -If they were utility of theso digression. At any rate.
th commltteo imagined It had a good case against tho coach, and It Is to their
credit that they were broad-minded enough to change their ruling when It was
proved that they were wrong. The meeting was held behind closed doors In
Doctor Ooodspeed's ofllco and lasted more than three hours. All of the members
were pledged to secrecy, but It wna learned Indirectly that they seemed to bo
rather for than against Folwell when ho appeared to stale his aide of the case.
Only a few questions were asked and the nnswern apparently were satisfactory.
,Tho result was that FoIwcII'h name wan restored to the list, and the only thing
that wilt prevent htm from coaching tho team next fall Is his resignation. And
Folwell aald today that he would not resign.
Wishes of the Public Have Been Respected
ALL the world loves a winner, and Philadelphia feels the same as the world.
Xi After years of tad, moroso experiences at Franklin Field the public at lust
found real enjoyment when Folwell took charge of football affairs. Instead of see
ing the team draggeM through tho mud and walloped unmercifully by all comer,
they witnessed a high-class, powerful, spirited cloven defying its conquerors of
the past and winning a few football games an In tho days of yore. It was a graml
nnd glorious feeling, and tho fear of a return to conditions of 1912 to 1915 caused
every ono to arise on his hind legs and roar. Football li the national sport after
tho world'aserics, nnd not only H It popular with the University men, but tho
other sport followers In Philadelphia a:i well. The public must be entertained by
some active amusement and the gridiron game fitted In nicely. Vhlhiilelphlnns turned
out loyally to the games last year nnd tho swelled receipts of the athletic nosocln
tlon prove It. For that reason It was up to the authorities at I'enn to give heed
to tho wishes nt tho public or run tho risk of having Franklin Field assume tho
joyful and busy appearance of Shlbo Park In December.
Folwell's Ambition Was to Coach at I'enn
realized his ambition when he was appointed head coach last year.
There was no haggling over terms, nor did ho insist on a long eantraot.
Instead, he took what was offered him and signed a ono-ycur contract confident
that he would succeed and be reengaged for tho following beason. For eight years
,the Penn coach had yearned to come back and do something for his alma mater.
He had been humiliated and virtually drjvcn from the field tho first time he applied
for some kind of a position nnd wanted to prove that a mistake had been made. It
was in 190S, the year after ho captained tho team, that Folwell learned that lie
was not wanted at Penn. lie appeared ou the field ono day and approached tho
head coach.
"1 would like to help out a little this year," he Mid. "1 know that I can be of
assistance In coaching tho backtlcld men, but If you don't want mo there any old
job will do. 1 will work with the scrubs or the freshmen, but tho main thing Is
that 1 want to be out hero and doing something."
Folwell was turned down In all nf his requests, but It pioved to be the best
thing that could have happened. Lafayette lo.it her coach and Folwell stepped Into
tho Job. What he did there Is history. He beat Penn and Princeton and when he
left the Maroon and While team was considered ono of the best in the land. Then
he wont to Washington nnd Jefferson and what happened there Is more history.
Yale and every ono else waa beaten with the exception of a questionable victory
bcored by Harvard nnd n rexerse at the bands of, Pittsburgh. No matter what
hlo critics say, Folwcll's work at these two colleges stamps him ns a wonderful
coach, and Fcnn's record last year la the convincing nrgument. Theso teams were
successful and Folwell was tho coach. Need more be hnid?
Team Did Not Pan Rough Football
IT HAS been charged that Folwell taught rough football -taught his men to win
at a'ny coat and never consider the feelings of their, opponents. It also was
aid that the Penn players Ubod rough language on the field and played dirty
football. The writer If you will pardon .the personal stuff saw the Penn team
In action twice last year, not ns a spectator, but as n referee, nnd there was noth
ing In tho actions of the players that bore out these accusations. Penn played hard
football, but It was not rough. Against West Virginia there was no trouble, al
though It waa a very eln;,c battle, and at Pittsburgh nothing could bo said against
the' conduqt of the men. Other gridiron officials noticed the same thing, which
proved that there was no foundation for tho charges. The players themselves
say that Folwell helped them momlly rather than dragged them downward, and the
head of the student Young Men's Christian Association bad nothing but praise for
Folwell's work from a character-building viewpoint.
. V .
F)LWELL will meet with the football commltteo in a few days nnd discuss next
fall's contract. When this Is over, he will lay plans for the Wonting season.
This little trouble will spur him to greater efforts and there Is no doubt that
Fenn will be an Important factor in the football world before the 1917 season is
over.
Boxing in New York Now Seems Doomed
GOVERNOR WHITMAN'S statement that the Frawley boxing law should be
repealed In New York showa tho handwriting on the wall. In a short time
the pugilistic game will bo ns dpad as the proverbial doornail and the huge flock of
boxers now working that Stale will drift to parts unknown. It was a great game
While It lasted. It was tho Mecca of the gents with cauliflower ears and split
lips. Money came easy nnd the promoters and managers, grew wealthy It a sen
sational boxer appeared In some out-of-the-way corner lit was shipped to New York,
where ne soon annexed a healthy bank account nnd lived tho life of ease, provided
hj had the proper manager. But the game was too good and tho overzealous
promoters proceeded to kill It. They killed It once before and failed to profit by
the lesson. Cliques were formed and affairs were run with an iron hand. Certain man
agers wero favorites. Utherj couldn't break In with a stick of dynnmlto. The
band, known ns the "Forty Thieves," rodo slipshod oxer everybody. Then came
'the charges against the head of tho boxing commission by men who aro said to
have wrecked 'the gUmo nine cara ago. Dirty linen was put through tho wringer,
and when it enme out it was Just as dirty as over. Charges and counter-charges
were hurled back and forth until tho Governor grew disgusted with the whole
proceeding and made his statement that the law should be repealed. Internal
strife will ruin anything, unci tho anxious promoters over In Gotham noon will
feel it in the bankrolls the only place they can bo hurt. It should bo a lesson to
the Philadelphia moguls. There Is some friction nt present, nnd If this goes on
perhaps the game hero will suffer the same fate. All wc ask Is that If the goose
that lays the golden eggs Is to bo Kllleu, Ktu u qiucKiy. uon i ie u uio n lingering
' death.
Anent the Weil-Known Strike
IT BECOMES more evident every day that much of tho strength attributed to
Duvo FuP.z and his strike movement Is Mroply the result of a general cutting of
salaries and r.ot becnuse of any loyalty to the fraternity. Comparatively few of
the players who have declined to sign contracts are satisfied with the salary offered,
ori tiav nr nirnnlv holdlnrr out for more money. It may also bo taken for granted
$- that some of those who claim to be standing by the fraternity nre really using thnt
for an exjeuso and will come to terms the minute the club which owns them crosses
-' the calloused palm with sufficient gold. Within a few short weeks virtually all
F; the players will either come to a compromise wun ineir urnus or see ino nanny

You can't get the fullest
enjoyment from smoking un
less your cigarette is also
COMFORTABLE.

reason why so many men are
selecting Fatimas for their
steady smoke. Because Fatimas
are found to be truly comfort
able not only to your throat
cisarettes

and tongue, but AFTER smok
ing, also. Even if you happen
to smoke more than usual,
Falimas never remind you of

Turkish blend of tesferi-pure
tobaccos takes care of that.

cigarette can be.
