If Mike Murphy Resigns the Loss is Pennsylvania
Says Kranzein, Veteran Trainers Greatest Pupil

dispatches say Mike Murphy
trainer of the University of Penn
sylvania, is to sever his connection
with the school at the end of the
1911-12 collegiate year. The at
titude of the football field coach
toward Murphy is said to be the
reason for the resignation of the
great trainer. In connection with
this reported break, the following
story, by Alvin Kraenzlein, de-
clared by Murphy to have been
the greatest athlete the world
ever knew, is of interest, as it
shows Murphy as he really is, by
his star pupil, himself trainer of

be whether any transportation company cares to place
Itself in position of blocking Or delaying such program
The Territory should build and control the warves in all
