CRITICISM BACK
OF RESIGNATION
OF COACH WELSH

Pullman, Wash, Dec. 26.--
Criticism of the Washington
State college football teams rec
ord durilg the 1922 season in
which ono conference game was
won, is believed here to have
been a factor in the resignation
of Gus Welch, Cougar coach for
the last four years.
Coach Welch was handicapped
during the past year by lack Of
experienced material but he held
to his policy Of developing men
rather than victorious football
teams.
My ambition has been to turn
out real men, men who will make
desirable citizens, as well as t.
turn out satisfactory football
team" Welch said after his resig-
nation had been announced. =
believe the development of man
hood should be considered of pri'
mary Importance by any football
coach, and that the development
Of championship team should
be of a secondary consideration
The win at any cost coach is moi
an asset to any institution"
Future plans Of Coach Welcl
have not been announced, though
he is to be married January /;

Julia J. Carter, daughter Of Con
