able to find a man on whom it feels
that il can with some degree of safety

Actually when schools look around
for head coaches of foot ball they ex
ercise more care than they do in
looking for men to fill any other place
on their staff. A popular and sue
cessful foot ball coach can be worth
his weight in gold to a college if he is
the right type of man. and on the
other hand an exceptionally success
full coach may be the most undesirable
man on the campus from an admins
trative point of view In short, if a
coach influences students in the right
direction he is worth far more than
his salary, no matter what that may
be; if, though, he influences them
wrongly. he is a great detriment to
the institution with which he is con-
nected. no matter how successful he
may be in turning out teams. And
sometimes this is the true explanation
of why a coach loses job, despite the
fact that he seems from the outside to
have been successful.

NEW YORK. January 27.-The

conclusion of a lengthy meeting of

itself to pay $4,350,000 by October 1
