THURSDAY, DECEMBER 24, 1936 CHANGES SEEN IN BIG SCHOOL CONFERENCES Southern, Big Six, Southwest, Rocky Mountain Leagues Notable Exceptions ROW OVER ANDERSON LOOMS Assistant Jimmy Yeager to Suc- ceed George Veenker at lowa State in 1937 New York, Dec, 24.—(#)—The wolf howling business has been picking up along the football coaching front in the last couple of weeks, but it’s still considerably below normal. Although scattered coaching changes are in prospect, most of the schools in the big-time groups appar- ently are going to string along in 1937 with what they have now. Notable among the exceptions are the South ern, Big Six, Southwest and Rocky Mountain conferences, where one or more shifts are already made or in the making. For the first time in 20 years, the Southern conference won't make a single change. Out in the Big Ten, too, all is serene, despite rumors of possible action at Iowa and Michigan. Ivy League Is Sct The East's Ivy league is set, now that Tuss McLaughry has been re- moved from the doubtful list with a new contract at Brown. The Pacific Coast undoubtedly will go into next year with the same lineup as 1936, in Spite of a reported offer from Michi- gan to Jimmy Phelan of Washington. Sifting the fact from the rumor, here's the likely lineup of shifts for 1937: South —Hunk Anderson has been given his walking papers at North Garolina State, but a fight is on to see if they stick; Bull Rafferty has gone from V. M. with Pooley Hu- bert taking over; Loyola of Louisiana has released Eddie Reed. Big Six—The Army's marching or- ders sends Biff Jones from Oklahoma, and gives his line coach, Tom Stid- lam, the job; George Veenker leaves Iowa State, and Line Coach Jimmy Yeager gets his place. Vic Hanson Fired East—Vic Hanson is definitely out at Syracuse; the howling is heard at LaFayette, where Ernie Nevers made anything but an auspicous debut. Far West — Adolph Lewandowski, Montana mentor, will become assist- ant at Nebraska; Spud Lewis is out at San Francisco, as is Gene Murphy at Portland. Southwest — Jack Chevingy already has abdicated at Texas. Rocky Mountain — Otto Romney, pilot at Brigham Young, goes on leave of absence and Ed Kimbell takes charge.

Hanley Fears West Will Bottle Up Kelley San Francisco, Dec. 24.—(?)—If the West plans to bottle up Larry Kel- ey’s work in the East-West football game here New Year's Day, the East team may use a passing attack that will click without the All-American ‘Yale end. Co-Coach Dick Hanley of the east- ern forces said he fears the western- ers “will try to make life miserable for Kelley. That is, they'll guard him a0 closely the poor man might not have a chance to get down the field and catch a pass. We've got'to de- ‘velop a passing attack that will work even if Kelley is handcuffed all after- Doon.” Howling FEW MAJOR COACHING | day. ~ SEVEN CAPTAINS MAP ATTACK FOR ALL-EAST ELEVEN strategy for the Jan, 1 battle.

Schommer, dean of Western Confer- ence football officials, believes that courageous enforcement, rather than change, is the principal need of foot- ball rules today. University of Chicago and for 27 years a football official, foresees much discussion on grid rules when foot- ball coaches meet in New York Dec. 28, The coaches have a committee which can make recommendations to the rules committee meeting held early in 1937. “The forward pass interference rule has caused widespread debate be- cause of the part it has played in de ciding games,” said Schommer. “It's a good, fair rule and it emphasizes, more than does any other regulation, the need for officials who know their business. “The official must know whether the ball or man is being played by the } defending players.” Schommer believes the backfield shift should be watched more closely and that referees should carry stop watches to see that backs hesitate the required second before “break- ing.” In some instances, Schommer said, teams are deliberately coached to violate this rule.

Occupational Deaths Grow With Business Chicago, Dec. 24.—()—Better busi- ness brought more occupational deaths and injuries in industry, the National Safety council reported Wednesday. W. H. Cameron, managing director of the council, said, however, the 5 per cent increase shown at the end of October probably was smaller than increases in employment and man- power exposure to accidents during the year. Council figures showed 1,500 oc- cupational accident deaths in Octo- er. Total accidents for the first 10 months of the year were estimated at 14,500.

The girl was convicted of volun- tary manslaughter in October by @ Hopewell jury which set her punish- ment at five years in the penitentiary.
