MICHIGAN ANNOUNCES
NEW COACHING POLICY

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Aug 3I.-Au-
noUncement OF the coaching staff for
the University OF Michigan's 1919
football team reveals a definite
change in the policy OF the athletic
board OF that institution. Psrt-time
coaches are being eliminated. Their
places are 10 be taken by men who
will devote their entire time to Michi-
gan athletics.
For years Michigan hired special
lists in each branch OF sport. These
men knew but one sport and could be
hired out q few months OF each year
The rest OF the year they had TO MI
in with another occupation, a situa-
ton that was seldom satisfactory.
The new policy Of keeping men the
year round will do away with this
difficulty.
Carl LundgFen, the varsity baseball
coach, IS the newly appointed assist
ant TO Head Coach F. II. Yost this fall
Lundgren will pay especial attention
70 the backfield candidates. While a.
the University OF Illinois Lundgren
played four season on the varsity
eleven as halfback. He is attending
the Illinois school for coaches this
summer.

A coward can smile when there's
naught to fear.
When nothing his progress bars.
But 1t takes a man to stand up and
cheer
While some other fellow stars.
''It isn't the victory, after all,
But the fight that a brother makes.
The man who, driven against the
wall,
Still stands up erect and takes
The blows of fate with his head held
high,
Bleeding and bruised and pale,
Is the man who'll win in the by and
by,
For he isn't afraid to fail
Its the bumps you get and the joIts
you get
And the shocks that your courage
stands,
The hours OF sorrow and vain re-
Gret,
The prize that escapes your hands,
That test your mcttle and prove your
worth
1t isn't the blows you deal
But the blows you take on the good
old earth,
That show if your stuff is real"
These lines might we'll be engraved,
not only upon the walls of every
school and college in the United
States, but also upon the hearts Of
all athletes. Jess Willard, for in

John +. Wray. the scholarly spOrJy
editor OF the Dispatch in st
Louis, gives some light on the situa
ton in the following bit written in
his own pet "colyum:"
why has everyone hammer
out for the Giants?" queried q
ran recently. "MCGTaw is
hustling leader. His men fight
hard and try to win and. If they
sometimes become q little loud or
rough, isn't il eXcusable when
men have heart and soul in their
work?
Hasn't the New York club
turned its bank account inside
out to give the club a winner?
Can you say the same thing OF
any club or any club owner st.
Louis has had within the memory
or the oldest inhabitant,"
The answer. 30, lies in a ma
tiOnal trait OF character which
causes everyone to get hot under
the collar when he sees another
trying 10 take an unfair advant-
age.
Fighting spirit is commend
able; but a bulldozing spirit is
not. Also, fans like pcnnant
races, but not bidding matches"
Just As 10 SpOrtSmanship.
"Eosey" Reiter, director or ath-
letics at Lehigh and professor OF
football at the Harvard summer
school, is a great believer in sports
Furthermore, he believes
that certain poems have much to do
with inculcating true sportsmanship
in athletes. He particularly admires
the following poem, entitled "The
Test" engraved in the trophy room
OF the Cornell Athletic Association:
"The test OF a man is the fight he
makes.

The way that he stands on his feet
