The next year Lee McClung, after-

An incident of Hinkey'S tac1turn ulS-

Will be remembered that the teenn8

was very bitter, and during the game
there was considerable slugglng, IN
which department the members OF each
team broke about even.
Joe HalloweI, a Harvard tackle, re-

broken nose, and shortly afterward
Fred Murphy of the Yale team was

Warner to Leave Carlisle.
From an authoritative source II Is
learned that Glen Warner coach OF
athletics at the Carlisle indian school,
had resigned his post and would quit
at the close of the present gridlron
season.
Warner, according to the informant,
goes to either the university OF Pitts
burg or Minnesota, where he will be
in charge of football at the same sal
airy paid him to coach all branches OF
sport at the government school.
There is probably no better Know
football or track coach than Pop
Warner. as he is Familiarity known
Used to Be ut Cornell
The loss Of Glen WarHer to the red
skins is sure to be keenly felt. he
always turned out a football eleven
ranking with the best college teams
in the country and was wonderfully
! successful in handling and developing
athletes.
Before going to Carlisle, Warner was
at Cornell, where he made name for
| himself as a football player. He went
20 Carlisle in 1901, and has been there
ever since, except for two years when
he returned to Cornell to coach that
team.
No better football strategist ever
lived than Warner. His plays, which
r,ade the indians a team to be feared
were adopted by other coaches, and
Warner was regarded as being just a
few years ahead of other gridiron mem
