The turnover, representing ap- proximately 20 per cent of the seventy-one colleges and universi ties canvassed by the Assoc Press is the largest on record in the East. 1t is conspicuous for the reason that the shifts involve such out- . standing institutions as Harvard, Princeton, Pennsylvania and Rut- gers. Thirteen head coaches, who took hold of their jobs in 1930, hold over for a second term. No sharply defined causes cover | the ing ans ton vard have retired giving way to younger men of the same schools, Al Wittmer and Eddie Casey. | Pennsylvania’s drastic athletic reorganization resulted in the dis- placement of Lud Wray, last sea- 'son and the engagement of Harvey Harman, graduate of Pop Warner's school of football at Pitisburgh and coach, until this year, at the Uni- versity of the South (‘“Sewance.”) The average coach’s life seems a short and not so merry on2, on the basis of the statistics furnished the Associated Press. The average tenure of seventy-one coaches, in- cluding the 1931 season, is four and one-quarter years along the Eastern battle fronts. These figures do not bear out the assertion in the Carnegie Founda- tion’s Bulletin 23, in 1929, that the “length of the tenure of the coach, especially the head coach at foot- ball, is increasing.” The bulletin indicates a tenure of 4.72 years of eighty-two coaches at that time. Only four of the 71 Easlern head coaches for 1931 have served more than ten years. CARDINALS SEE NEW PROSPECT l “ST.
