The football outlook around the
east this year is unusually interest
ing. Yale occupies the spotlight. not
because IL is expected 10 clean up
ehis fall, but because Frank Hinkey
IS back To coach Old Els pigskin
warriors The prospect OF this for

team there this year is very doubt
fnl. The task is too great in the
minds OF football critics.
But the Hinkey spirit as it is re-
Fnenl bered by ones who saw that IA
Enous star in action in. the OLD days
IS something TO be reckoned with and
Ehe seemingly impossible may be ac-
complished. Hinkey's efforts, at any
rate. will be closely watched
In the preliminary work to date,
Hinkey has tried out large number
of candidates. His policy seems to
be that every man who reports is
going TO get a chance. He seems TO
want TO see for himself what mate
rfaI he has on hand. Only the three
players who wereregarded as regulars
are available for Hinkey. They are
Captain Talbot, Half Back Carroll
Knowles and Quarter Back Aieck
Wilson.
HInkey is being assisted at present
10y Dr. Billy Bull, who has charge OF
all the kicking candidates; doc" Cor
nish who is directing the quarter
hack asplrants. and Billy Marting,
who is showing the centers the fine
points.
