REVOLT 111 PRINCETON
ON COACHING SYSTEM
Students Demand a Permanent and
Independent Official; Fitz
patrick Is a Favorite
Special to The Telegraph
Princeton, N. J., N'ov. 18. —The pop
ular insurrection against the Princeton
football coaching system which has
sputtered for a few days and then died
annually at the close of each Unsuc
cessful season since 1911 has made it»
appearance again and is assuming
commanding proportions.
The demand is lor a permanent and
independent football coach for the
Tigers to replace the committee super
vision that has proved so ineffectual
for the last few years.
The season of 1914 has ended in dis
appointment for Princeton, but its fail
ure may even prove to be a benefit to
the Tigers by forcing an early settle- ;
nient of the problem of coaching.
There is no personal resentment in thv
anti-committee agitation. Many be
lieve that Pennfleld. unencumbered by
an overruling committee, would have
been more successful than he was as o 1
mere foreman in the execution of ;
plans that did not always meet with j
his whole-souled approval. The year i
was one continuous experiment and a j
costly one as it resulted.
Princeton would not have to look
far for a man to fill the position as j
permanent coach. Keene Fitzpatrick, i
physical trainer of Princeton athletes, j
for several years, lias been suggested i
and agitation favors him with Tom
Wilson, guard on the 1911 champion- |
ship team, as his first assistant.

WEDNESDAY EVENING,
CAPTAIN TALBOT RESTING AND DISCUSSING TACTICS BETWEEN QUARTERS
This photograph shows Captain Talbot of the Yale football team resting and discussing tactics on the field
een quarters in the game. Since the period of rest is fco short under the present rules, there is no time to
over new tactics in the dressing rooms. The Yale men wrapped themselves in blankets and lay down in
of the spectators. Then the coaches had a talk with the captain about the methods to be used in the latter
of the game.
CENTRAL HIGH TEAM
TO GIVE TECH A FIGHT
Saturday Schedule Includes a Num
ber of Final Scrimmages
in College Circles
Evidence of real school spirit came
yesterday when a hundred or more
Central high students watched the
varsity eleven at practice, and cheered
the players at intervals. In the opin
ion of the Central students, the an
nual local championship game Is not
going to be a cinch. The poor show
ing by Central this season has to some
extent been discouraging, but strong
hope is pinned on Central coming
back strong on Thanksgiving day.
Central expects to win at Wilkcs-
Barre on Saturday and the champion
high school team of the coal region
will not find the Central eleven an easy
proposition. New tactics will be em
ployed Saturday at Wilkes-Barre, and
the change promises to be a factor in
the big game on November 2li.
Tech is working hard for the game
with Steelton at Island Park on Satur
day. Coach D. Forrest Dunkle had
two hard scrimmages yesterday,
switching his players at intervals, and
introducing a number of new forma
tions.
Tech expects to go against a much
stronger Steelton team than has been
in ,evidence since the season opened.
After this" week the maroon and gray
will change their practice grounds,
and all training will be in secret.
In college circles a sensational wind
up of the season is looked for. The
Yale-Harvard game next Saturday is
the important battle of the year. Most
of the college schedules will end Sat
urday. WWln there will be important
battles on Thanksgiving day btween
c< liege teams, they are annual battles
and do not figure in championship
honors.
Bucknell: On account of the frozen
condition of the Hucknell campus the
coaches gave the few regulars on the
field and the substitutes a light signal
practice and then sent them to the
gymnasium, where a number devoted
a lot of time to basketball practice.
Coach Cockill will give a number of
the regulars work on the basketball
lloor instead of sending them out on
the football field for scrimmage work,
i Gettysburg: The crippled Gettys
. burg squad yesterday resumed work
for the remaining games of the sea
son. The hard play of the Bucknell
game completely used up the men and
| Coach O'Brien excused them from
j practice yesterday. McCullough suf
fered a badly lacerated hand and will
, not return to the line-up until the
i latter part of the week. Attention was
j centered upon interference by the
hacks ami upon tackling, both of
which were poor in the Bucknell
game.
I Lebanon Valley: Coach Guyer has
j notified all of the varsity men at Leb
anon Valley College that they will not
| be required to come out for football
j practice any more this season on ac
jcount of the schedule being played,
jAs the second team men have two
j games to be played this season, most
iof the varsity players have signified
I their intention of helping the scrubs
I get into good condition for the coni
( ing contests.
Dickinson.—As most of the Dickin
son College football team is in good
shape physically. Coach Harrington
put the squad through an extremely
hard and long practice. The line, al
though showing improvement, does
not yet satisfy Harrington, and recelv
jed several special drills in blocking
I and charging.
• Indians: Since the Carlisle Indians
land Dickinson College resumed atlile
! tic relations by placing a football game
lon their schedules, which event will be
! played here on Saturday, considerable
j local interest has developed in the
| prospective battle. As the Indians and
: the collegians have frequently prae-
I ticed together both are pretty well
I aware of the other's tricks.
Penn State: For the first time in
three weeks, Penn State's varsity was
able to work with its regular line-up
this afternoon. With the rounding up
of the cripples Hollenback tried out a
new backtield combination that so
well satisfied him that he said he
would stick to it for the Pitt game on
Than -sgiving day. Higgins played
fullback; Clark, left half; Yerger,
right half, and Captain Tobin, quarter
back. This arrangement puts Welty
and James to the bench.
Six-day Grinders Show
Both Class and Speed
New York, Nov. 18. Rapid-fire
sprints that almost overlapped held
cyclists in the six-day race at top speed
for more than an hour during the
night and carried the new record near
ly fifteen miles in advance of the old.
To-day fifteen of the eighteen teams
that started whirled over the big bowl
at Madison Square Garden.
The record for the fifty-sixth hour
was 1,150 miles and 9 laps made by
Thomas and Ryan In 1912.
ACADEMY SEASON ENDS
Losing live men this year put a
crimp in the success of the Harrlsburg
Academy football eleven. The Acad
emy won two games. In total scorea
the Academy scored 25 points and
their opponents 90. Coach Tatem Js
pleased with the work of the team.
Few players on the team will grad
uate this year and next year's squad
will open strong.
(iUS WEI,SCII IS IMPROVING
Chicago, 111., Nov. I.—lmprovement
was noted to-day in the condition of
Gustave Welsch, the Carlisle Indian
quarterback who was injured in the
Notre Dame game here last Saturday.
It will be three or four weeks, how
ever, before he will be able to Join
his teammates at Carlisln.

WILSOX PREDICTS BRIGHT
BUSINESS FUTURE FOR V. S.
Special to The Telegraph
Washington, D. C. ( Nov. 18.—In a
letter written to Secretary McAdoo
congratulating him' on the opening of
the new federal reserve banks, Pers»-
dent Wilson takes an optimistic view
of the business future of the United
States.
The President's letter of hop'e and
confidence in the business situation
was written in response to a note from
Secretary McAdoo announcing that the
new national hanking and currency
system had been Inaugurated.
Perhaps the* most significant por
tion of the President's letter is that
which refers to the railroads. There
is a suggestion that he sympathizes
with them in-their effort to obtain per
mission to advance their freight rates
in his statement that they are affected
not so much because their business is
curtailed as because their credit is
called in question by doubt of their
earing capacity. "No doubt, in the
light of the new day. with its new un
derstandings," says the President, "the
problems of the railroads will also be
met and dealt with in a spirit of can
dor and justice."
