Yale Razzers
 IakiingShots AtTadJones
By DAVIS J. WALSH


 New York, Nov. 23-The jolly
 old pastime of firing Tad Jones at
 Nale has begun all over again.
 Tad has been let out, his contract
 torn across the middle, for a con
 sideratton, of course. and a new
 head coach all ready to say 1t
 on the dotted line. You don't be

 the fireside at the Yale club. He is several hundred miles removed from the scene of activities at New Ha- ven and therefore knows all about them. Jones, he will inform you, is out; that is, if he doesn't win the Harvard game on Saturday. This done, all will be forgiven-until next year By that time, Tad can get ready to have himself fired all over again. It has become an annual custom like meeting the income tax collector half was and washing be- hind the ears.
 singuIarly enough. the decision to get rid of Jones seldom, if ever, comes up for consideration before the foot ball committee at New Haven. The com mmittee, in fact, is often the last
 It is the Yale alumni that is mimi ica1 to Jones. They contend and with some reason. that he has had remarkable material since he return ed to control Yale football in 1920, yet has had nothing to show for it beyond one victory over Princeton in the three seasons he has coached the team. Wherefore, they gain much satisfaction in firing him every year.
 This time, they feel particularly aggrieved. They travelled down to Princeton in high feather, saw Yale outgain Princeton, lead in first downs by thirteen to five and lose on the scoreboard by 30.
 Princeton Dose Bitter
 This rather sour performance has generated some real activity among Yale men in New York. They are TOW honestly and candidly out after Jones' scalp and there is serious question of doubt as to whether Tad will be able to make his contract stand up for the year it has to run if he fails to beat Harvard.
 Some have even gone so far as to wheedle Greasy Neale, coach at Washington and Jefferson into re- ceptive frame of mind. NeaIe, of course, is quite unaware of the fact They have neglected to inform him that he is to be wheedled.
 As matter of fact, Nea1e probably as near the Yale Bowl as he ever will be unless his Washington and Jeffer- son team happens to come there to play football game. Yale never has had any one but a Yale man at the head of it's football and barring an upheaval in policy and precedent, if we remember correctly, is a grad tate of some college in West Vir- ginia.
 Another New Haven objection would be raised on the score that NeaIe's coaching is a one-man sys- tenn. Others may be tolerated on the premises as suggeters; he bosses. That would be popular around the Tale Bowl; yes, indeed, popular as a fallen arch.
