Billy Evans Says

Coach Charley Moran who, with
the aid Of "Bo" McMillin, "Red"
Roberts and few other stars, put
Centre College on the football map,
seeks new fields to conquer. Recent
ly he signed contract to coach
despite the fact that only
b year ago he was reported as having
b .five-year contract with Centre.
Perhaps the financial inducements
offered by the eastern school caused
The Centre authorities to permit him
10 tear up the five-year clause.
Centre will miss Moran. In all
probability Charley will miss the at
nosphcre and environment of Cen
ire. Who will be the greater loser
remains to be seen.
The. little southern college first
BUMPED into prominence in 1915

The most cherished victory in the
annals Of Centre was the 6 TO win

touchdown of the game His play
that afternoon won for him ma
tional reputation, place on every
critics AllAmerican eleven and a
prestige that made it possible for him
TO get an $4,000 a year salary as
football coach at Centenary College
in Shreveport, La. McMillin has been
very successful as coach. Unlike
many star players he continued his
Gridiron success as a. coach. Now
he is being picked TO succeed Moran.
The work of Moran at Buckncll
will be watched with interest. For
several years Bucknell has failed to
come up to expectations on the
gridiron. 1t is hoped Moran will
again bring that institution to the
front.

VET STARS CHASE AS
EQUAL OF GEORGE sISLER

George Sisler. who will manage the
badly through as an active player.
Sislcr, when at the top o; his
game, voted the most valuable player
in the American League. suffered an
eye affliction that mas apparently
finished him as a player.
Of course Sisler has hopes that he
will be able to play, but even if he
does, it is a good bet that he will
no longer be the peerless George.
There is certain to be lack Of con-
fidencc that will affect his play.
In baseball two first bascmen stand
out AS the greatest of all time,
George Sisler and Hal Chase. Who
was the greater?
If Il vote Of the American League
players, familiar with the ability of
the two, was taken, it would proba-
bly, be fifty-fifty.
Despite the admitted greatness of
Sisler, the veteran stars of the Arner-
lean League cannot forget the re-
markable feats of Chase, the player
who really perfected the style of
play that is now standard with first
/ basemen.
As matter. of fact SisIcr can do
only one thing batter than Chase
bat, and the margin is rather slight
! In the field it would be utterly i'm
| possible to ask any player to excel
Chase. He was, the perfection Of
