YOST BELIEVES
PRESENT DAY
GAME SUPERIOR
After Twenty-seven Years Of
Coaching He Thinks Game Is
Greatly Improved

Chicago, Feb. Coach Hurry Up
Yost of the University of Michigan
has joined the ranks of hat group of
coaches who believe the present day
football teams are superior to those
Of a decade or more ago, when Drawn
was the chief requisite for college
gridiron player All things being
equal, the average university or col
lege team of today would administer
a beating to the average team of ten
years ago, in Yost's opinion.
The Michigan mentor, who has COM
pleted twenty-seven years of coaching
experience, declared today that the
present style of open play on the grid
iron is more satisfactory in any way
than the old bucking tactics. He said
the modern game, with it's varied play
was more interesting to player and
spectator alike and had had much to
do with the increased popularity of
the sport.
1.-The new game has all the elements
of the old, with number of interest
ing new features thrown in," Yost
said. at provides an opportunity for
use of brains on the part of each
player that the old style of contest
did not. Present day teams also are
better coached. This is necessary be-
cause squad that has not been drilled
in the forward pass. both on defense
and offense, is lost
Coach Yost said that the present
football rules would stand for years,
declaring the game was perfection ex.
cept for few technicalities that even
tually were to be smoother out.

de Wolfe, also better known as Miss
Wfnifred Shaunessy-Hudn and as
Natacha RambOva.
The cOlorful tale of a Mexican mar.
riage was repeated with embelish-
ments today in the court of ]. Walter
Handy, Justice of the peace, where
Valentino was hailed to answer to the
complaint charging him with bigamf.
The complaint was based on recOrGs
here and at MeXicali Those here
showed that Valentino divorced Miss
Jean Acker in January. Those at Mex
icali showed he wed Miss de Wolfe
Shaunessy-Hudn -Rambova there on
May 13. The authorities here held
that the Mexicali marriage was big
amous because Valentino had re-
Treceived only an interlocutory decree
in his divorce case, which will not be-
