Submit Names for
New Badger Coach

Madison, Wis.-The choice of foot
ball coach to succeed John K. Richard,
who resigned from the coaching staff
of the University of Wisconsin yester-
dav because of the press of private
affairs, is occupying attention OF the
student body and alumni. Several
names have already been brought for
ward with assurance that they are to
be considered by the athletic council
when it makes a selection.
Talk turns first to Jack Wilce, head
coach at Ohio State university, an Old
Wisconsin man, who has developed
winning teams for the Buckeyes. 1t Is
suggested that he might be connected
with the new university hospital here,
devoting his time in the fall to football.
Coach Richards is recommending
James Brader, for three years tackle,
on the Badger team. Brader gradual
ed in 1921 and has since been assistant
coach. Guy S. Lowman, baseball coach
and coach of the 1918 Wisconsin, team.
"Cub" Buck, one Of the Badgers
greatest tackles, now coaching the
Green Bay Packers, is another prom
inently mentioned. He was offered the
position at Indiana university this past
season but declined.
Howard Hancock, captain Of the 1917
team, and noted tackle, now coaching
at the Oshkosh Normal school,sis well
up in list of possible selections, He
has been turning out strong teams at
the teacher training institution, and
is we'll known here.
The athletic council announces that
it is to consider thoroughly the ques-
ton of a new coach and viii probably
not come to decision for some time.

CORONER INVESTIGATES
DEATH OF CONTRACTOR
Calls Jury to Investigate Death of John Larsen
Who Was Killed in Motor Accident
On Saturday Afternoon.
Conflicting Stories as to Who Was Driving the Car
at the Time of the Accident Cause Coroner
to Reopen Case Today.

John Larsen, aged SO, long promi-
nently connected, with the building
trades of Kenosha as mason contrac-
tor, was fatally wounded on Saturday
afternoon just before five o'clock, when
an automobile in which he was riding
left the road and crashed into tele-
phone pole at the croner of Grandview
avenue and the Geneva road. Fred
Hansche, 901 Lyman avenue, personal
friend of Larsen, was in the car with
him, but he escaped without serious
injuries. Hansche had bad cut on the
head, severe face wound and several
bad bruises on his body, but he was
able to get out of the wrecked automo-
bile and go to telephone and call aid.
Larsen died at the Kenosha hospital a
few minutes after he had been taken
to the institution. He never regain
ed consciousness, His limp body
was found in the front seat of the car,
almost covered by the wreckage of the
car, and it was with difficulty that the
body was removed from the twisted
wreckage. An examination at the Han
sen morgue, to which the body was
taken, showed that Larsen had suf-
fered a fracture of the skull, two bro
ken jaw bones and many other severe
bruises and abrasions.
Hansche Tells His Story.
After the body Of Larsen had been
removed to the morgue Hansche was
taken to Police Headquarters, and he
told the story of the accident. He de-
clared that at the time of the accident
Larsen had been driving the automo-
bile, and that he was unable to say just
what had happened. The statement
that Larson was driving the automo-
bile was not in keeping with the state
ment of people who were among the
first to reach the automobile after the

Fathers and mothers lived through
all the experiences OF their early
lives and are inclined TO laugh at
modern fear. as regards germs and
illness. The truth is. our parents
were lucky to survive the conditions
which made the death rate so much
higher than it is today.
In New York city thirty years ago
the death rate among children of
five years and under was four times
as high as it is today. This decrease
is a wonderful record in the saving
Of life. While there are many fac
tors having a bearing on the i'm
provement, the chief reason. in my
opinion, is the better food, particu-
larly the pure milk, which the chill
dren enjoy today.
