campaign for this fall has been map
ped out and will be conducted under
conditions radically different from
those prevailing in past years. For
the first time in the history of football
at Syracuse the entire sport will be in
charge of an advisory council modelled
somewhat along the lines of the Cor
nell system
The members of this council have
not been appointed as yet. but 1t is I'M
derstood that the men will be selected
from those alumni who have been
prominent In football at the university
In past years. The question of a coach
for the eleven next fall also came up
for decision and De Forest Cummings,

Cummings will act as head coach and
will have the assistance of an advisory
board of coaches. who will supply
members for active field work The
new move really means graduate
coaching. for which both alumni and
undergraduates have been agitating
for some time.
