Mentor Setup
What appeared as a beginning
of student demonstration of con
cern over the College football
coaching situation sprang roots
last night at a meeting of Skull
and Bones, senior hat society.
Other evidence of student con
cern took place on campus last
night with the appearance • of
tags worn by students and labeled
"A Big-time Coach fo,r the Big
time 'College."
Theme of the Skull and Bones
meeting revolved around what
was termed a "need for a higher
paid football coach than .one
drawing $6,000," and a need for
"the proper big-time coach to
fill that post." Skull and Bones
men attending the meeting,
called' by Morton Snitzer, presi
dent, unanimously endorsed the
double-pronged appraisal of, the
football 'coaching satiation:. •
Snitzer declared,, ."Indications
are that the coaching situation
is critical and deserves' active
student concern if Perin State is
to amount to anything •in foot
ball, and if the, College is to at
tract a, coach ho will in • turn
attract the best high 'school foot•
ball talent."
Indications were; late- last
night, that the Skull and Bones=
inspired student• action in the
matter could . boast supporting
student concern in other quar
ters. Ted Allen, all-College
president, said that Harry Kon
dourajian, 'junior class president,'
had placed the subject- of a new.
football coach on the agenda of
Thursday's AU-College Cabinet
meeting. "Obseryers pointed out
that manifestations of student
concern might snowball to Other
organizations on campus.
At the Skull and Bones meet
