Finish Job at Rutgers.

Foster Sanford reviewed his work at
Rutgers In the last two seasons in a
speech made at the Metropolitan Club to
a group OF Rutgers men and told them
that he needed at least two ear more
to finish the work that he started.
Whether Rutgers will get its W years
OF finishing of course will depend upon
the outcome OF the campaign being
made by Sanford's friends to obtain
for him the post OF head coach at Yale.
Sanford didn't discuss that matter at
all last night, his only reference to the
future being the statement that he

fame OF Rutgers secure.
Football Is method, not men, said
Sanford early In his address. and to
prove It he old OF his building up Of
the Rutgers team in the last two years.
He said:

fore the close Of one Of the longest meet

came when one of the members de-
clared that Bill Hollenback. Ted Mere

as candidates for the board at It's COM
ing elections. The assertion was based
on the fact that the bylaws OF the as

for the board unless he has been a MEM
Der OF the association for one month
prior to the elections and also that
nominations for the board must be made
"A month before the elections.

been "A member for only about three
