The break came, he says, because the university presldent cbjected to the way the coach | * handled the team on the field, es- pecially in the matter of mflkmg substitutes. Howley lifted the Browns from! seventh to third place in one sea- son, but the Front Office didn’t like his choice for shortstop, among/ other things, so Dan is now manag- ing the Cincinnati Reds. Howley has the expert mechanic’s knack of knowing how to take an old machine apart, replace the'worn out gears with new and startle the folks with his results. That's the way he put fresh life in the Browns and he is doing the same thing with another seventh-place outfit. The fans from Fountain Square won't know the Reds when they troop out on the opening day wita Bob Meusel and Harry Heilmann among the newcomers in the line- . up. 7 \ » It is even more difficult for a basketball team to dash through a season undefeated that it 'is for a football team to maintain a clean slate. For one thing, a college court five tackles anywhere from 25 to 40 games a season, which places a severe strain upon any gquad of talent in a game that is rough, tough and fast. It's something to shout about therefore when a team such as Ar- kansas drops only four games in four years of championship com- petition. The Razorbacks have won the Southwest Conference crown four straight times and in 1928 came through their schedule un- beaten, running their winning streak up to 21 games last winter. Seven members of the Champion- ship squad are on hand again, in- cluding Captain Wear Schoonover, who handles a basketball with the same skill he did forward passes on the gridiron. —————— NO KANSAS CAPTAINS LAWRENCE, Kas, Jan. 9—No more captains will be elected to lead athletic teams at the Univer- # sity of Kansas.
