New Haven, Aug. lit was an
nounced by the New Haven Union
last night that Frank Quinby, the
Yale baseball coach, had joined the
staff of the sporting department of
that paper and would begin work i'm
mediately. 1t is known that Quinby
has sent his resignation to the ath-
letic committee of the university to
take effect at once, although his term
as coach has another year to run.
There was friction, It is said, between
the coach and Capt. Lou Middlebrook
of the varsity nine over the exercise
Of authority. f.r "
The announcement that Quinby
stands ready to step down and out ra-
Their simplifies the situation, but many
of Quinby's friends believe it would be
a good thing for the varsity nine if
Quinby continues as coach with all
the powers he thinks necessary to
make the work of a coach tell.
The captain-elect, Arthur Milburn,
Is popular with the players and is
rated as a first class player who will
not stand for lack of unity in any
department over which he has juris-
diction. 1t was stated today that Mil
burn would be very much pleased
with the selection of Bernie Tomm ers
as head coach for the nine. He has
been coaching the pitching depart
ment for a. couple of seasons.

REMARKABLE CURES
OF FRENCH WOUNDED
New PolyvaIent Serum, Discovered
Last March by Two Doctors,
Proves Successful.

Paris, Aug. 11.-What are described
as remarkable cures of wounded
French soldiers have been effected by
the new polyvalent serum, discovery
of which was announced last March
Complete recovery is announced of
men who were terribly mutilated and
for whom all hope had been given up
before use of the serum, so badly in
fected were their wounds.
Doctors Leclainche and Vallee. the
discoveries of the serum, have been
unable up to the present to make more
than two thousand TASKS of it daily
most of which goes to the base hos
pitfalls, where the worst cases are to be
found When it can be made in suf-
ficient quantities to supply the firing
line, where it could be used preventa-
lively, as anti-tetanus serum is now,
it is believed that thousands of lives
can be saved.
The new serum, which may be
roughly described as combination Of
a number Of serums against different
varieties of bacteria, has been put to
practical use only recently. Expert
ments with it were made privately in
Paris laboratory. 1t was then used
by DR.. Bergeron in the Button hospital
and afterwards more widely distrib-
uted.
