Football Coaches.

There Is a wizardry about
successful football. coaches. The
great players ire not necessarily
the great coaches. The man who
can tear a line to pieces is not
necessarily the owner of mental
equipment TO make him the mas
ter OF football strategy. The
football coach must be u great
teacher. a great inltiator, a mas
ter@of discipline, and one who
wins reverence from his men.
After that, 1t is all easy enough.

acted here within the next few days.
The murderer S loyal wife viii
plead fer him with Governor Rich
ardson, the only power that now can
save Kels from the gallows. Her
plea will be in vain, it is almost
certain. Governor Richardson has
emphatically declared several times
hat if Kels is sane on January 4
he must hang for the cold blcoded
killing of Ed Mescrvey.

her as she makes the last plea for
her children and her husband.
