tom Of training that Will develop speed

very interesting story of how he
loaned fost TO University of Pitts
burgh team during that season. when
pittsburgh played the University of

that Pittsburgh won. and Mr.. Trench
ard says that Yost won the game all
by himself In those days there were
few eligibility rules. and Mr.. Yost was
required TO stay at Pittsburgh only ten
days before the game. so as TO be
eligible to play. In this day such :,
thing would be condemned as crime
against college etiquette. but then it
was all right. Mr.. Yost the next year
coached small college team in Mis-
souri,. and then found his way to
Michigan assistant coach
After leaving West Virginia Mr.
Trenchard coached the University Of
Pittsburgh in 80 and 'aS and Washing
ton and Lee in 90 and 1909. Since
