SPORTS. Little Booming Sports at Wisconsin : Dempsey May INSTALLS A NEW SPIRIT AT BADGER INSTITUTION Washingtonian So Busy With Varied Affairs That He May Eventually Have to Turn Coaching of Foot Ball Team Over to Lieb. BY LAWRENCE PERRY. NEW YORK. March 18.—It looks as if the future‘'head foot ball coach at the University of Wisconsin will be Tom Licb, Knute Rockne's right-hand man and head line coach at Notre Dame. Lich has gone to Madison as assistant foot balt coach to George Little and assistant track ¢ i to Tom Jones, Lieb having been a weight man at Notre Dame. . George Little, a Washingtonian who, in addition to coaching foot ball, is director of athletics at Wisconsin, is a busy man. It is not believed that he will be able to shoulder the duties and all the responsibilitics of teaching foot ball for more than a vear or two longer. In the time that has been at Madison he has shown what,a man of vivid personality, unflagging energy, cnthusiasm and initiative, can do. e has in «l a mew athletic | - spirit in the 2 univers BASKET BALL GAMES.
