"Bob" Folwell to Be Boss
Is Today's Announcement
Philadelphia, Pa., Feb. 11.—There
is a stipulation in "Bob" Folwell's!
contract with the University of Penn
sylvania that he is to have absolute !
control of the football team at Frank- j
ltn Field this year, and is not to be
advised or instructed by any board j
of advisory managers, or anybody
else.
This bit of information was told j
to Penn graduates at a dinner of j
Pennsylvania men of New York and
vicinity at the Hotel McAlpin in New
York by Dr. George M. Coates, whose
assigned subject was "Athletics."
"If Folwell does not turn out a win-'
ning team," said Coates "he doesn't
want to have any alibis. That is his I
own language. He wants to blame!
nobody but himself, and he does not 1
want to shift the responsibility. Wei
were looking for a young man as j
coach this year, because we Wanted !
a man who has played, and coached
modern football, and who under-1
stands the game as it is now played. |
"In getting Folwell we have been i
very fortunate because he has shown I
his capabilities as a present-day coach I
and if he turns out a team at Penn- !
sylvania of the same caliber as the j
teams he produced at W. & J. I think
we shall all be satisfied."

The annual dinner of the Sporting i

Yale officials put the ban on sum

recommend the reinstatement of the
athletes who earned vacation money
last year. Rules were broken, accord

vere in keeping the athletes out of all
sports this year, permits them to hold
their former records.
The selection of Charley White to
referee the Willard-Moran tight has
brought a general expression of ap
proval. His presence in the ring means
that the big fellows will have to put
forth their best efforts. There is no
reason to expect that either Willard
or Moran would simply box. Both
have reputations that must be looked
after. It may be a one-sided battle,
and for this reason the referee must
be a man who has the nerve to end it
when one man is getting all beat up.
