C%herrington May
Coach Track Team
Hewitt Of Nebraska Resigns and
Omaha Man is Considered for
the Place.

LINCOLN. March 2-(speeiall-I. p.
Hewitt. who was elected coach Of the
track team by the athletic board at a
meeting last week. has decided that his
law interests in the west will not permit
him TO accept the offer OF the Cornhusker
mentors and he has requested that they
select another man for the position. The
board has accepted Mr.. Hewitt's reasons
in good faith and are now considering the
election Of Ben c. Cherrington Of Omaha
TO the position OF track coach and he is
practically assured Of the place.
Cherrington is a student in the university,
but has had considerable experience IN
coaching clnder path athletes. Last year he
had charge OF athletics at the Omaha High
school and turned out a track team mat
won the Nebraska state nterscholastic
meet for the metropolis for the first time
in several. That Omaha team. according
to DR.. Clapp, physical director at Ne
braska and formerly track coach, was the
best trained and coached high school team
that has been seen in Lincoln during the
last fifteen eyars.
The Nebraska board believes Chorrlngton
will be able to turn out a winning team
at Nebraska this year and they are in
cllned to let him try the task for this
year. The board would select an eastern
man, except for the fact that It has been
decided to hire an all-year-round coach for
foot ball and track athletics for 1911 and
the board does not wish to pay too much
salary to a track coach for one years ser
vice. In 1911 the Cornhuskers will have an
eastern man to coach all branches Of ath-
letics. The board is now in c~ommunica-
ton with several parties who wish to begin
work with the Cornhusker basket ball team
next November.
The track candidates were called to-
gether yesterday afternoon and given. in
structions about starting training for the
omaha meet. DR.. Clapp had about fifty of
the men gather in the gymnasium, where
he Informed them just what work they
would have to do in preparing for the In
door games. He will give them daily in
structions until the athletic board Officially
selects a track coach. A meeting of the
board will probably be held tomorrow aft.
ernoon to settle the coaching question.
1t was elarned today that Hanson. a
crack high high jumper, would be Ineligible
for the meets this year, because he failed
to make the required twelve hours of uni
versity credit last semester.
