Norris Williams and Vincent Rich- ards conquered Rene Lacoste and Jean Borotra in straight sets yes- terday. Combined with the singles trlumphs of Bill Johnston and Bill Tilden the day before, this gave America the margin necessary to keep the cup for the sixth straight year and the ninth time in twenty Davis cup tournaments. spells the difference between a championship eleyen and one that does not come through is the human equation. Give a coach a man like Red Grange and if he is a genius in coaching he will build an offense qualified to make the utmost use of the star. This means that he will not only deylse plays for the star, but will train every member of his eleven to fit into the interlocking scheme of those plays. Only in this way will the yalue of the star be realized. TEAGHERS PUT IN TIME CLOCK Bhala, GnICAGL ‘Wail’ of Protest Goes Up From School Instructors. By OWEN L. SCOTT.

Spears at Minnesota. The west in particular is well ac- quainted with Little—the man who acted as chief alde to the famous vet- eran, “Hurry Up" Yost, at Michi gan University for several years. Little became the active head of the grid activities at Ann Aarbor, Yost acting mainly as consulting direc- tor and tactician. Following the close of last season Little was signed as coach of the Wisconsin team. The move, though long rumored, caused a furore. Spears is making his debut in Big Ten coaching cizcles, howeyer. He won his football fame in the east and made a big name for himself as a coach by his work in that section. He leaves West Virginia univer- sity to Till the western job. Dr. Spears won fame as a player while attending Dartmouth. His bril- lant playing at guard won him all- American honors. After his gradua- tion he was called back to Dart- mouth to coach the “Green” team. His success as a coach there drew him nation-wide recognition and a flattering offer from the University of West Virginia. ————_____ If you have me question to ask about baseball, football, box: ing or any other amateur or pro- fessional sport— | Write to John B.
