Coach Is Necessary, Says Vivian Nickalls Philadelphia, April 2&.—"Athletic coaches at the University of Pennsyl vania are doing as much as any pro fessor to bring out the best in stu dents." This is the answer of Vivian Nickalls, coach of the crew, to Assistant Professor Thomas D. O'Bolger's charge that athletic coaches, the "least desirable" element in the University, were back of the movement to have morning classes begin at 8 o'clock instead of 9 in order that athletes may have more time to practice. In a letter to the Pennsylvanian, a student newspaper, the crew coach yesterday said: "I have not written on the subject of 8 to 4 classes before because I con sidered it a matter best left to the undergraduates themselves. Mr. O'Bolger has chosen to write a letter, published In Monday's issue, full of abuse of athleticß and with ground less arguments against the 8 to 4 proposition. "Mr. O'Bolger starts out by saying that the coaches are the least desir able group of men In the University. This I call a most scurrilous attack on a body of men who do as much for the University as any professor in bringing out that which is best in man, promoting high thoughts, the desire to fame and all that makes a man."
