FEAR DAILY MAY
NOT COACH
ARMY.
Famous Mentor Anxious to
Continue Course With
Field Troop

Doubts are entertained by fol-
lowers Of the fortunes Of the Third
Corps Area football team as to
whether Major Charles D. DAILY will
coach the team next fall. 1t is con-
sidered probable that the choice will
fall on Capt. Vernon E. Prichard,
who has been coaching at West
Point and was graduated from the
military academy in 1915. He Is
a Field Artillery officer.
Major Daily has recently com.
pleted a technical course at Fort
Leavenworth and Is believed to be
anxious for additional courses or
duty with troops, although it Is
known that he would have been 4
welcome addition to the athletic
authorities OF the area.
Captain Prichard made an en-.
viable record as a gridiron sta.
when playing for the Cadets. wiz
Mertllat, an end, he engineered a
series of passes against the Mid.
shipmen in several Of their annual
games which paved the way to
victory for the Army eleven.
Major DAILY is one of the most
noted of football mentors, having
pas ed quarter and captained Har-
vard before entering West Point

ROMERO KNOWS
HIS HANDS
AREFULL
Next Friday Is Something
More Than just May 9
to Quintin,

NEW YORK, May Cit may not
mean much to some folks, but to
Senior Quintin Romero next Friday
night is something more than the
evening of May 8. On that date
Floyd johnson will aid Tex Richard
in deciding whether Romero is a
real fighter or just a gymnasium
performer.
There is one thing to be said for
Romero: He Is not starting as cas-.
lily as Firpo did a year ago. Firpo
opened with the aged Bill Brennan
and closed with the decrepit Jess
Willard. Johnson may not be a
world-beater, but he is game and
can take more punishment without
laying down than any heavyweight
except Dempsey and possibly Wills.
He has been stopped only twice.

Dcbie Favors Letters
Only For Athletes
Who Study

ITHACA, N. Y, May g.
Varsity football letters should
only be granted to players who
maintain the required scholastic
standard, says Gilmour Dobie,
head coach of football at Cornell.
"There are too many men,. he
said, "who, after winning their
football C, let down on their
work and as a result are drop
ped from the university or put
on probation"
Athletic success, Dobie says,
sometimes goes to the head of
the players, it confers a certain
distinction, and as a consequence,
they fail to keep up their
studies.

A detour of
Wash i n g on

the day before revealed two
brave attempts to welcome
spring, but that bashful bird
was not to be cajoled by any
occasional mattress fedoras.
It's just such freaks of
weather as this that makes
some of US go through the sea-
son with iron derbies instead of
pampas toques.
If we thought tomorrow
would be sunshiny, we'd buy
one, but as tomorrow never
comes and today is always cool
and cloudy, we spend the sum-
nler looking at other peoples.
Washington's climate is such
that the straw skinner season
becomes shorter and briefer
each year. It used to be from
April Is to September 80, but
the public found that was too
long to stretch one hat, so they
changed it by six weeks.
May fifteen to the same date
in September is now the stylish
route for one, two or three
crush hats and the number YOU
buy is largely up to your sense
Of sanity.
Most anything that is light
and timber and can be ruined by
one good shower will suffice for
this ticklish time of year when
one blast of thunder turns milk
into clabber.
There is one other require
ment that is not absolute but
desirable-try to make it as
ridiculous as possible. 1t curls
up in front, don't let it curl
up in back. Leave that for the
elements to do.
Straw kellys are everything
except what they ought to be.
If they were sunproof and rain
proof, they'd be practical. But
as sun turns 'em brown and
water warps 'em altogether,
they are the finest piece of folly
ever enjoyed by poor men.
