/. Northwestern university will probably make a
complete change in its coaching STAFF this win
ter, Besides the contemnlated~ retirement OF
Dr. HOLSTER. it was reported yesterday that a
successor to Trainer Hempel would be secured
The committee to which was referred the matter
of his. retention has not yet made its official
report, but there was a rumor in Evanston that
he would be allowed to go, and it was generally
credited. This caused some surprise. for Hem
pel's work has been considered satisfactory
=, Gill OF Belot is talked of as his successor.
Fe Is candidate; for the position, and several
members of the athletic board of control think
we'll of him. However, no change will be made
before the first of the year, and possibly not
until early in the spring. "-,
DR.. HOLSTERS report of the finances of the
football team, which will be submitted soon.

dtures by almost 81 900. The greater part OF

The choice of a coach for Northwestern has
been narrowed down to three men, providing
DR.. HOLSTER is dismissed or resigns. These
three men are Wallie Mccormack, G. Foster San
ford and William Bates All three Of these men
have a following in school, but any will
be acceptable to the students body. Since the
decision not to engage any man who is an alum
nus Of any institution in the ''big nine the
friends Of Mclean, Eddie Cochems and even
Eddie Dietz have lost hope. Just now it looks
aa If Mccormack was the choice of the ma
jority. I@.-, r:
