OF Ruth and the stories OF huge sums
paid him have spurred the i~maginatlons

it Is noticeable that the suburban towns
around hig cities are producing their
share. The cities themselves are not.
1t may b because the city boy has
too many other interests and will not
devote himself TO the game. But an
even bigger reason that city boys ara
hot coming into the majors may b:
found in the fact thai the growth OF
s&hc cities has robbed the kids or their

Yale Celebrates Jonss's Return.
Yale Is juhilating. with cause. 9
the agreement which brings Tad Jones
back To take charge OF the Yale FOOT
ball activities for the next five years.
The discomfort and perhaps the aefeat
of Yale last fall was largely due TO De
lief that Jones should have given more
,ime 10 the team. How a man or his
standing can give up his business m
forests and devote himself entirely to
creating a team is hard TO figure. The
sacrifices must be immense. and that
Jones is making it shows that he is
determined to give everything to Yale.
The fact is that Yale has gone through
two bad seasons chiefly because Of the
enort To make good in a hurry. al
ways shall believe that Sharpe would
have brought the team up had he been
given time. He had one year. and that
a year of reconstruction, and 1 believed
il a mistake to change. Jones took
charge late. and an effort vas made to
make up lost time by driving the tea"1
hard. No team could stand 1t. Jones
had even less time to make good than
was granted Sharpe-ahd that he failed
Is not to be wondered At.
Nor should the entire blame for over
driving tho team be placed upon him.
His assistants and volunteer aids from
grad ranks helped in the driving. II
Yale and Mr.. Jones will listen to out
sid advice. II would be that the gates
be closed against too jealous helpers
next fall. Incidentally. the odds for the
big three games next fall changed
quickly when Jones announced his ihten-
ton Of giving Yale all his time.
