FIRST UUNIOR NATIoAL TITLE (| | Probably it will be some time before Princeton solves its football coaching problem, created by the virtual ouster of Al Wittmer after | the Tigers' most disastrous sea- son. ‘The volunteers, of course, have been cut in full force to help settie the matter. The hotel lobbies were full of suggestions during the gath- ering of gridiron clans in New York over the holiday week. Successful Princeton coaching graduates such as Charley Caldwell of Williams were quickly nominat- ed for the big job at Old Nassau. There was talk of recalling Bill Roper, whose political sagacity per- haps led him to retire a year ago, before the storm broke all over Princeton. Harry Stuhldreher, driver of the Four , Was mentioned. If the Tigers go beyond their own fold for a new head coach the chances are the choice will be D. ©O. (Tuss) McLaughry, the upstand- ing, fine-looking coach at Brown university. McLaughrey Eyed McLaughrey’s personality and methods are universally well-liked. His successes have seldom been sensational, but they have been satisfactory, or what “Rym” Berry of Cornell calls “just right"—“not too good to be a handicap, nor bad enough to call out the anvil chorus.” If a selection is made within the ranks, it may fall upon Johnny Gorman, former quarterback and now the Princeton freshman coach. The inside dope is that Gorman is very well liked, but that no action will be taken until a number of policies - are settled.
