Some Of these days-will 1t be the
closing hours of the one i'm which
Michigan finishes her 1909 schedule?
Fielding Ia. Yost viii quietly drop
the remark that he has decided TO lay
the coaching mantle down. Accord
ing to the BELIEF of his closest friends,
Yost and Michigan are going to part
this fall, after mutual relations which
have been as beneficial TO the school
as the coach. Yost took the Wolver-
ines when they were down, raised the
sport at Ann Arbor To a plane that has
probably never been attained by any
other institution. leaves il with the
most magnificent athletic field i'm the
west TO commemorate the deeds and
successes OF the teams which he
coached and whose popularity result
ed i'm the securing of the funds with
which to equip it.
II is a regrettable feature that, for
the last half of YOst's tenure of office
at Michigan, his teams have been far
below those OF 1901. That such has
been the case goes without saying.
The shortened schedule. the clmna-
ton for several seasons Of spring and
/ early fall practice and training table
were all factors that tended To- cxag-
gerate a condition primarily in vogue
through the sad falling Off in Michi-
gan's football material.
When Yost leaves Michigan, wha;
then? Who will take up the burden
of the man who has always stood foi
the acme of football strategy? I'm
questionably it should be one of the
men who for so many seasons eXem-
plifled the ideas of the great tutor, by
active play ON the field. Many 81
Yost's stars have succeeded as coach
crs The most noted success is un-
doubtedly Dan McGugin. the veteran
guard In all probability he is out o
ithe question. however. Jas he inai
