YALE MAKES CHANGES
Jones and QueaI Start Work in
Football and Cross-COuntry.
Preparation for Present Season Most
Elaborate In History Of College
Little Change Looked for
In Rowing Policy.

Two changes in Yale's coaching sys-
tenn went into effect with the report
ing OF fall squads for athletic train
ing. In both football and cross-coun-
try work permanent paid coaches have
been installed. In football, Howard
Jones, the new permanent coach, has
many players at Nantucket, and in
cross-country running, Billy Queal, the
professional champion, has most OF
the prominent candidates for the dis
lance team daily working out over the
hills near his home in New York
state.
The need of a revision In both the
football and cross-country teams
training has been seen by the new
resident coaches, and the preparation
for the present season Is the most
elaborate in the history Of the two
sports at Yale.
Yale has not heretofore installed a
permanent coach in either of these
sports. In football a head field coach,
changed from year to year, has been
named and no continuity in system
has been secured.
In cross-country work, John Mack,
the track athletic team coach, has
had charge, but his duties as football
team trainer and as track coach have
prevented his giving much attention
to the cross-country fall season. I'm
der Queds coaching Yale distance
men last spring made the best show
ing In the intercollegiate In years,
and it is now felt that there will be a
chance for a Yale victory in the cross
country team run this fall
Yale has reelected two captains of
losing athletic teams for another sea-
son, Bud" Snowden of the crew and
Jack" Blossom of the baseball nine.
Blossom was a member of the junior
class last season, but was completely
upset by losing the Harvard series and
consequent championship, and stated
that he would not return next year,
although reelected captain. He has
changed his mind and will set the
squad to work soon after college
opens, In two weeks. He will reap
point as his coaches Frank Quinby,
who has been coach for two years, and
Bernie Tommers. who had charge of
the pitchers last season. Yale has
had wonderful material the past two
seasons, and the same nine that swept
everything before 1t in the early
games last spring will return, with
hardly an exception, for another year.
Captain Snowden has not indicated
his coaching plans, but 1t Is under
stood that another trial Of the English
stroke will be made. Snowden has
been in Europe the past summer, and
one report is to the effect that an Eng
lish coach will come here this fall
to spend the entire season in drilling
the crews.
Little change Is looked for in the
Yale rowing policy because Of the fact
that Snowden was committed thor
oughly to the English system Of coach
ing last year, and it is thought thai
little change will be made in his ad
visers. the committee which SHAPED
Yale's policy last year. Prominent
among them are Averlll Hartman O.
New York city; Fred Allen of Bos
ton, chairman of the committee
Payne Whitney OF New York city. anC
Alfred Cowles OF Chicago. Hartman
was an undergraduate and was heaC
coach last year. 1t is not expected
that he can give time for continuou
in connection with the Hartman
estate, OF which he is one Of three
heirs.
