WRAY LIKELY TO
BE PENIS COACH

CAMBRIDGE. Jan. 14.-James
Wray, coach of the Harvard oars
men since 1906 may be the next row.
ing instructor at the University u
Pennsylvania. That a certain ele-
ment in Harvard's aquatic circles has
never quite reconciled itself to the
introduction of professional coach
is no secret. Consequently all hands
have not been pulling together al
though Wray's success at Harvard
has been most wonderful.
An old Penn varsity oarsman,
member of the Pennsylvania Rowing
Club, a sort of auxiliary organization,
which has a majority membership
on the Penn rowing committee, was
in town over Sunday, and stated that
his organization is very anxious that
Wray should be the successor TO the
veteran Ellis Ward. who will round
mt this season an almost unbroken
term of service since back in 1879.

His face. wreathed in smiles. he ex-
claimed: Gee, I'm lucky guy
His eyes rested upon a calendar as

the thirteenth day of the year, 1918,
dawned on him, but frankie now has
a bunch that the thirteenth is his
lucky day Burns is already claiming
