NAME RUSH
 HEAD COACH
 AT PRINCETON

Princeton, N. J., Jan z6-yoln H. Rush, '98, of Cleveland was yesterday appointed head coach of Princeton football. Rush will have full su- thor4ty and will begin his work for next season at once.
 For thirteen years he has been a.tll+ letic director at the University School in Cleveland. where he developed such gr1diron stars as SpFackling, the Brown quarterback; A9a1. TScoviI, the Yale halfback; Hogsett All-AmeFica end and Captain of the Dartmouth team last year. Gordon, a, Brown star, and Barrett, the Cornell quartsrbaclS- These are only a. few of the Elaen who have made notable records in college after graduating from Rush's teach ing
 A unique feature Of Rushs appotnt- rnent is the fact that he never play ed football while he was an under graduate in Princeton. He played the game before entering, but devoted his athletic efforts to track in col 1ege. He still holds tine Princeton record of g 4-5 seconds for the hun dred-yard dash. In spite Of hts lack Of collegiate football experience MT Rush has been remarkably successful with his university school teams.
 Mir. Rush.s appointment gives him power to outline the entire policy of the Tigers campaign for next sea son. and he will also name his own assistants, with the help Of the ad- yisory football committee.
