ROOMAN TO COACH BROWN.

Since Gammons. who acted as head
coach for the Brown team during the ear
ly part OF the season, left the squad TO
go south with the Boston National league
club, the Brown nine has had practically
no coach, and the consequence is that
very little team work has been devel-
oped.
This IL serious fact, and a man was
needed at once TO bring this very essen
tial requisite about and yesterday IL was
announced that Rodman. the former var
Sity first base-man, would take charge
OF the team during the remainder OF the
season.
The news was greeted with much pleas
ure on the part OF the undergraduates.
and all are unanimous in the opinion that
"a wiser selection could not have been
made.
Rodman is well fitted for the place and
will undoubtedly bring the team up To a
high degree OF perfection.
