NEW YORK, ~. Y, Aug. S.-Al-
though nearly two months must elap3e
before the candidates for the Eastern
varsity football teams begin to assem-
bic for gridiron practise. coaches and
managers are already preparing for
the coming pigskin campaign. Foot
balls are being distributed among tie
players for use during the vacation
period and those who will have charge
of the squads are taking stock of the
material available for big autumn
drives on lime-scored fields.
In the case of az least two of the
big university squads this preliminary
activity is made necessary as the re-
suit of complete changes in the coach
ing system and personnel for the conl-
ing season. Both Pennsylvania and
Yale will enter the football arena this
fall with a new coaching corps in
charge of the teams and the playing
of the elevens under these mentors
will be watched with more than the
Usual interest by both those affiliated
with these universities and the gen.
Cral football fan.
Tad Jones at Yale
At Yale Tad Jones, who signed q
three-year contract last winter, Will
he head coach He will be assisted by
Trainer Mike Sweeney, Arthur Brides
end several other well-known Yale
Players of the past, with Walter Camp
occupying his old-time position of adj
visory coach and strategfst. Jones, 1t
is hoped by Yale men, will prove to be
the Moses to lead the Eli football
clan into the land OF gridiron victories,
q place which the Blue has seen but
| from afar in recent years. .......
Pennsylvania is in somewhat OF
similar position and has selected Rob-
crit Folwell as the coach to bring again
to Franklin Field the girdiron glory
which in former years was assoclated
With the Red and Blue elevens. Fol-
well, like Jones, has some excellent
material to begin work with and VIII
be assisted by Charley Wharton and
By Dickson. as we'll as other former
Quaker players of repute. II FolWells
record as coach at Lafayette ard
Washington and Jefferson can be
taken as a criterion, Pennsylvania will
be a gridiron opponent to be treated
with great respect during 1915.
Leary at Harvard
At the other leading Eastern insti.
tutions where football is accorded
strong support there will be little
changes in either the coaching stats
or the system in vogue during the past
few years. Percy Haughton will not
he able to devote his entire time 20
the Harvard squad during the early
| norton of the autumn, because his
duties as president of the Boston Ma
tional League Baseball Club Will re-
uuire much of his attention until ABOUT
the middle of October. Leo Leary is
| expected to do much of the prel1ml-
nary coaching, assisted by Charley
| BrickIey and other Harvard stars Of
| yesteryear.
SPEEDY" Rush will again be in
charge of the Princeton football des-
| tiny, assisted by a larger squad OF
graduates than was the case a season
| ago: This will be Rush's second year
| v it'll the Tigers, and judging from the
progress tite team made uncer his in
! struction last fall the Tigers should be
! formidable on the gridiron this au'
tumn. At Cornell DR.. AL Sharpe Will
face the task of developing another
Red and White team capable of play
ing a game along the lines of Cornelfs
championship eleven of 1915. Dart
mouth will also depend upon Frank
Cavanaugh to maintain the high stand
! ard of the Hanover team of the past
! few years. Glenn Warner will be back
| at Pittsburg and Foster Sanford at
Rutgers, in addition to several other
! coaches who have succeeded in putting
| small colleges in prominent places On
