John Langan, president of the ath-

Will remain in charge of all athletics
at the Hilltop for the remainder of
the year, taking the place of Vincent
L. Daley, former supervisor of athlet-
les, whose resignation is in the hands
Of the board today.
The Information comes from the Hill
top. where it is announced that DaiIey's
resignation will in no way affect ath-
letic policies already adopted for the
year. Everything is expected to move
along smoothly with Langan at the
head Of affairs, backed up by the
athletic board, which consists of Father
klroy and the various managers OF
the athletic teams.
Following the announcement of the
former football captain not to return
his resignation comes as no surprise.
Athletic affairs at the Hilltop are in
good shape and, while Dailey's with
drawal will not affect the present plans,
his going is generally regretted.
Dennfte plans are announced by Pres
tdent Langan today The athletic board
VIII meet on the first of the month, at
which time Dailey's successor will be
appointed. For the remainder of the
Year, however, affairs will be entrusted
to Langan. The new man to be ap-
pointed will take charge next fall at
the opening of college.
To Announce Coach.
At the next meeting the football
coach for next season will be an
nounced, and there is every indication
that the man to be selected will be
chosen for a term of years.
Football will be placed on a better
basis" said President Langan today.
We have gotten tired of having to
select coach every year, and We will
sign up man for term of years.
The man chosen will be rendered a
three or five-year contract
Frank Gargan will be back with the
football team There is little question
of that" continued Langan, ''and we
have every reason to feel that con-
tfnued success will follow the team. Z"
Rumors flying thick and fast as to
Dsfleys SUCCESSOR have named Langan
as oeing the supervisor, but the present
head of the athletic board states posi-
lively that he win in no way be con-
Hected with athletics at the Hilltop after
juno.
At the present time all coaches for
the year have been appointed and mat
tiers are in lip top shape. Daley is
leaving with the highest regards of the
university and the best wishes of STU
dents and faculty. His record at
Georgetown has been brilliant.
Record Brilliant.
AS member of athletic teams at the
Hilltop Daley has been best known
perhaps. but his scholarship record is
one which has been unquestionsbly as
brilliant as any former honor man at
the university. Winner of medals for
scholarship standing and debate, he was
in the front rank of Georgetown best
students.
Daley was captain of the football
team for two years, an honor never be-
fore falling upon a Blue and Gray
player. Twice victor hand running
over the University of Virginia football
eeam DALEY had charge of last years
championship eleven and steps out with
the best of records behind him.
