Belief That n Professional, Possibly O'Dea,
VIII Assist at New Haven.
Since the overwhe lining defeat OF Yale's three
crews by Harvard at New London. many influ-
entail graduates of the New Haven university
have had informal talks over the future policy
to be pursued in rowing Affairs Some OF them
have said that Head Coach Galaudet should
be- permitted to continue in charge OF the crews
for another year at least. 40 that he might have
every opportunity to put his ideas into effect.
Others have declared that the Yale Navy should
extend an invitation to Robert ]. Cook to re-
sumo his former duties as coach. giving as a
reason that in the past al OF Yale g aquatic sue
There y a strong feeling. however. that neither
Gallaudet nor Cock will have charge OF iale's
coaching next year, but that the work will be

absolute power that Courtney Of Cornell holds.
At New Haven there is a strong sentiment
against profession Al SIN in any form. but it is
deemed absolutely necessary to have some as

-
Yale advisers. James A. Ton Eyck Of Worces-
ter father Of tho American amateur champion
sculler. would no doubt make an excellent
assistant coach as he is veteran and has had
much experience in coaching tours and Fights
at Worcester.
There is still an undercurrcnt of feeling
among certain influential graduates against
Bob Cooks return, and it is said that the latter
is aware Of the TACT and for that reason will
make no move % get back his old place. which
he filled purely out OF loyalty to his alma mater
and not for, financial consideration. The
coaching OF this years Yale crews by Gallaudet
aud others lacked systema attic organization.
This was shown by the work OF the crews dur
INK the races on the Thames. and a group Of
Yale men who saw the triple defeat were heard
by THE SUN reporter to remark:
The coaching and training is all wrong
and something must be done before another
year"
When it was suggested that Cook should

available men will he carefully considered
within the next few months 1t may be that
Gallaudet will act again with either O'Dea or
some other professional as assistant. but no.
body will make prediction to this effect.
