DR.. Wilmington
GIVES WISCONSIN
HOPEDR VICTORY

University of Wisconsin is already
INDUCING in high hopes for football
success next fall, with the, appoint
ment of DR.. Paul o. Wilmington, Ho-
nolulu boy and later Harvard star,
as head gridiren coach, Announce
ment of the selection brought the fol-
lowing comment in the Madison Demo
crat: ge s~.s.s. =. Il .-.=. ...*.
The choice of Wilmington for di-
rector of the 1916 Badger gridiron
sport was received with much favor
by students and alumni who have
followed carefully the football -situa-
ton since the resignation of William
]. Juneau. DR.. Wilmington, comes
to Wisconsin with a most successful
athletic record and highly recommend
ed by Harvard authorities where he
has been associated with Percy
Haughton, head coach of the Crimson
team for the past two seasons. ...3
In selecting Wilmington as head
coach of football, the Wisconsin ath-
letic authorities were convinced that
he is a master of the Harvard foot
ball methods which have been SO sue
cessful in the east; and that he will
bring to Wisconsin the Harvard sys-
tenn of athletic management which is
recognized as the most perfect organi-
cation now in use by any university
in the country. The fact that he is
not an alHmnus of any university
competing in the. big Nine" confer
ence is also a point in favor of the
Harvard man. u ="
In announcing Withington's ap-
pointment, Regent E. M. Mcmahon,
chairman of the special athletic COM
mittee, made the following state
ment: -: tsEt,s@~s -. -.
paul Wilmington is not only the
strongest man in the field when JAIL
desirable qualities for a man for this
position are. taken into consideration,
but so Tar as we are able to learn,
no stronger man could be brought to
Wisconsin, that no man gives better
promise of fitting into the yWiscon-
sin situation at the present time and
briefly for the following reasons:
He has. a most mastery concep-
ton of the highly, successful coopera-
tive system of football coaching at
Harvard of any man available. He
has the highest of recommendations
from Harvard men whose official pc,
sition and contact with the Harvard
situation enables them to speak with
authority. In addition to having
qualifications superior to any other
men considered, he is not an alumnus
of any of the universities or colleges
competing with Wisconsin in the ives.
tern conference He will best fit into
the general Wisconsin athletic situa-
ton, being not only an effective and
scientific individual coach but also a
leader who will welcome and secure
the cooperation of the best available
coaching talent. incIuding some of
our own recent players, and who will
be able to form into successful and
permanent system our own hitherto
scattered forces"
