COACH SENDS TEAM
AGAINST old RIVALS
AFTER 80 odd YEARS
(BY Associated Pressl

CHICAGO, Oct 21-It is 80 odd
years from the days that Coach Amos
Alonzo Stage played football against
Princeton until tomorrow when he
sends his University of Chicago eleven
against his old rivals. The interven
ing years have made him the oldest
football coach in the country. In all
this time his first aim on the gridiron
has been to make men,
with the right sort Of coaching you
can make men faster on the football
field than in any other sport" said
Coach Stage in looking back over his
three decades of coaching just before
taking his team east
Football is a glorious game. 1t
calls for the highest in courage and
sacrifice, for the good of the school
and to win. 1t is vigorous game and
in certain sense it is to the glory of
football that men will play the game
in spite of injuries that quite often
do come.
Athletics Recognized.
"One of the chief developments of
the past so years is a recognition of
the worth of football and of athletics
people see that they are worth while
IN developing our boys physically,
mentally and morally.
We shall never get the best grade
Of coaches, in my judgment, until the
coach is made member of the facul-
ty. He needs to be set above the
necessity of immediate winning of
games. He needs to have the ideals
Of an educator. He should not have
his job depend solely on winning
teams. | think this has been the
cause of much of the poor tactics some
coaches have employed
First on Faculty.
! Coach Stage himself strikingly H.
Illustrates the revolution that has taken
place in the coachs position in the
college world, for he was the first
| coach to be made a member of the
faculty of his institution. When he
was invited to come to the University
of Chicago at its opening in the fall
OF 1892. he was made at his own re-
quest, head of its department of ply
steal culture, and athletics.
Coming west in 1892, Stage arrived
In Chicago after the western football
season had opened. Only Is men an
swered his call for the team. and he
had to play backfeld position him
self. His position at Yale was end.
! The first games of the University o.
Chicago, which tomorrow perhaps ar
rives at its highest pinnacle of football
recognition in being the first western
team to break into the eastern trio o
Yale, Harvard and Princeton for
home and home series, were played
against Chicago high school teams.

Shaw, Garvey. Mehre, Anderson, Kiley
and Carberry are regular track or
basketball men as well as powers on
the grid. So far the weakness of the
team has lain in the quarterback posi-
ton, but improvements are looked for
here and upon their being made may
depend the success of the season The
famous Notre Dame forward pass is
not any less formidable than it used
to be, but improved defense against
it must be given much consideration.
All of these things are going to be
tested to the utmost in the struggle
with Army on November 8. This an
nual battle has reputation for being
both classic and classy; with the Army
in better shape than ever and favored
by great opportunities for scouting,
the Polo grounds ought to see mix
up worth remembering. Nebraska and
Indiana are also expected to call out
everything that Coach Rockne has.

trains will bring the Army cadets to

Some must block the forward pass,
Some must dive beneath the mass,
But he who holds his well-known
feet
Is harder than 'em all to beat,
While he who tracks the tickle ball
Will rarely even get call.
