fBy Telegraph 10 The Tribune. !

New Haven, April 3.-John W. Field, OF
the class of IL. was selected to-day as head
coach of the Yale football team for next
season. Field. who earned his 'Y' in his
sophomore year, played right halfback last
fall, and his remarkable defensive work
was one Of the features of the games with
Princeton and Harvard. His home is in
Washington.
The announcement of a head coach has
been long delayed owing to the fact that
there was a break in the custom of choos-
inS a coach. Captain Daily, OF last seasons

Invitation to coach the Williams College
eleven.
The appointment Of Field as head coach.

of appointing the captain or some member
OF the team of the previous season as
coach, has been strenuously opposed this
year by the older graduates among whom
