CLANS and already Coach Frank Hays is
laying plans for next year. Football
was resumed at G. b. c., this fall, for

Hays assignment as coach was any

In his array Hays failed to find one
man even fairly acquainted with the
fundamental principles of the game. He
was compelled, therefore, to start in at
the bottom and by the time he reached
the first rung of the ladder the season
was over.
