CLEVER GRYD COACHES STILL ARE IN EMAND BY WALTER CAMP. This is 2 day of many upheavals in| the foot ball world, IKJ! i!’II Epite of gome suggestions that the power of the coach be curbed, the search for competent coaches goes on just the same. It must bs borne {n mind that the pozition of head coach iz no sinecure.

A surgical opegation has been performed and it is expected that this will alleviate the trouble. Gray. who won the quarter mile for Georgetown in the indoor games last week, was almost unknown to local followers of track sports. In reality he Is a veteran peroformer, one of his notable accomplishments having been running second to Earl Eby, former of the show. Kilbane's trip will be mainly for pleasure, although he and Zelmef and Grayber will give _exhibitions _en route, and perhaps Kilbane and Bu- gene Criqui, the clever French fight- er, will get together. Criqui is ready and walting. and all that seems to be required is for the feather champion to make good his announced desire to mingle with the Parisian. All champlons, _even including Dempsey, talk as Kilbane talks when it comes’ to discussing the load that goes with a title. Dempsey says he loves his title and all that, but may- be he wouldn't be as sorry as some for the opening game. Better do at once if you want a seat.

Its relay team in the Hopkins games was & distinct disappointment, and its two- mile combination in the Georgetown games was not the usual Virginia four, by any means. Only two men have shown the typically good Vir- ginia form this winter—Bohannon and Baker. Bohannon was about the best quarter-mile runner in the south last year, as he was capable of doing the distance in fifty seconds. It was rather amusing to followers of track sports in the meet in Baltimore when it was observed that Bohannon had a twenty-vard handlcap in the quar- ter-mile.

And incidentally Lanigan turned out one of the greatest quints of his career, From now on Lanigan will de- vote his entire attefition to track. One record In the Sodth Atlantic In- tercollegiate Athletic which is likely to be shattered this vear is the shot-put. Last Friday night in the Georgetown meet, Beers of University of Maryland put the shot a little more than forty-two feet. The South Atlantic Intercollegiate Athletic Assoclation record is forty- ihree feet three inches, and if Beers on a board floor, with a big leather- covered shot, is able to get a distance Detter than forty-two feet, it certainly ems that when he gets on the und with a good foothold and a small®brass shot on which he can get a better grasp he should easily {ncrease his distance beyond the present mark.
