¢ SPORTS: THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, ’ TUESDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1921 SPORTS. Many Colleges Seek SOUTH ATLANTIC SEVERAL SCHOOLS PLAN CHANGES Catholie U., Virginia, W. and L., Wake Forest, Ran- dolph-Macon, William and Mary, Western Mary- land and Clemson May Be Affected. BY H. C. BYRD. s S fall. coaching blood is Washington and EVERAL institutions in the south Atlantic section, and one or two farther south, are on the lookout for new foot ball coaches fof next Chief among those in the south Atlantic state$ seeking new Lee, and it is desirous of obtaining the services of a good resident mentor, who also can handle one other sport, preferably basket ball. Bill Raftery, who has been coaching foot ball, basket ball and base ball at Washington and Lee for four years, re- signed recently, and it is to fill his is casting about to find a man. Wake Forest wants a new coach. William and Mary is trying to locate 2 man it beiieves capabie of handling successfully its foot ball team. Ran- dolph-Macon is said to be in the mar- ket for just such an individual. West- ern Maryland College, up at Westmin- . Md.. is reported to be willing to 1,500 tor the right kind of a man ach its eleven, and rumor also gone the rounds that St. John's Catholic” University may have men in charge of their squads new when around. Clemson College also seems to be dissatisfied with thé instruction its squad received last fall and is on the alert for a high tvpe of man to fill permanently the job of foot ball and base ball couch. And rumor still per- sists that strong forces at Virginia are intent on an abandonment of the old alumni system of coaching and the installation of the straight pro- fessional system. None of the institutions in the mar- ket for good coaches is in the least stingy regarding salary considera- tions. There is no type of teaching in cducational institutions that is ding as high salaries as the which goes with gridiron - _When an institution like Vestern Maryland, with less than 100 1en in its student body, Is willing to pay $1.500 for a foot ball coach for ten weeks' work, it is not difficult to fizure how high the larger schools Will go to get the right type of men as resident coaches, especially when such men can handle one or two sports besides foot ball. Catholic University has scheduled a foot ball game with Virginia Military Institute for next fall, November 4. 1t will be remembered that one of the greatest games ever played on V. M. L's field was with Catholic Uni- versity in 1916, when the Brookland- crs won by 14 to 12 after a brilliant uphill fight.

December 20.— Efforts to pave the way for ac- ceptance of Harvard's Invitation for a foot ball game in th Harvard stadium October 28, 1922, are being | made by University of California of- ficials here. All members of the California team. which has not been defeated in two vears, are anxious to meet the Crimson eleven. The principal obstacle is that Cali- fornia’s schedule already calls for two trips, one to Seattle to meet the University of Washington November 11, and the other to Los Angeles to meet the University of Southern Cali- fornia October 28, the date offered by Harvard. “Another trip, it is thought, would.cut too heavily into the college work of the players. A final decision is to be made soon. ST. CYPRIAN GRIDIRONERS ARE:AWARDED LETTERS Nineteen members of the St. C: prian foot ball team, colored cham- pion aggregation. have been awarded letters.
