New England Gives Consideration To Coming Campaign Problems;
 Three States Are Doubtful Now
Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts May Be Swung On Hinge of "Wet" Tide = Republican Managers Express Confidence Their Party
 Will Be Victorious In November.

Boston. Sept. R-Going about its political chores with a native deliberation. most of New England is just now beginning to give seri- ous attention to the national issues which awakened many other sec tions of the country to activity two weeks ago.
 Except for Maine, where the state election takes place next Monday. none of the states of this north easternmost group has fully emerg- ed from that preliminary stage of the campaign in which state tickets are selected, and local alignments perfected for the test in November. But already certain visible signs point to Massachusetts as the focal point of the impending struggle. and to prohibition and economic stabil- ity as the issues to be kept most insistently before the voters.
 All Are Republican
 All six of the New England States have been voting for republican nominees for the presidency with all most unbroken regularity. Two of them, Maine and Vermont. have long since come to be regarded as strongholds of confirmed republican, ism. New Hampshire is looked upon with hope by some democrats, who take historical comfort from the fact that Wilson carried it against Hughes in 1916. but no republican leader classes it as even debatable in 1928. Of the six. this leaves Connecticut, Rhode Island and Mas sachusetts, all of which. at this

STEVENS STARTS HIS
 FOOTBALL COACHING
Yale Graduate Will Begin First Year at New
 Haven

New Haven, Sept. (UP)-Yale goes back to another experiment ill graduate coaching of football Sept. 76, when Marvin A. Stevens, '25, takes over the position of head coach held since 1921 by Tad Jones.
 Not since the World War has the Eli eleven been drilled by a grad uate. Graduate coaching had not proven entirely successful but when the veteran Jones announced his final retirement, Yale athletic au- thorities turned to Stevens as a combination of their ideals-a grad uate and a sound student of foot ball.
 More than GO men are expected to report to Stevens September IA. according to a statement today by the Yale Athletic association.
 The chief problem of the coaches was believed to be in developing ends to take the place of Scott and EishWick who have graduated. West and Grille, substitute ends on last years squad probably will be given d try as will Linehan. Hare and Sncad, wingmen on the 1927 fresh- man eleven.
 With Captain Mix Eddy, tackle. Green, guard. and bud Charlesworth center-all first string men-return- ing to the line and a wealth of sub stitute line material, Stevens should have little difficulty with that de- pertinent.
 Johnny Hoben, quarter. Garvey and Decker are returning to the backfield. Reports have been cur rent. that an injury to Hoben's shoulder may prevent his playing this year but he is expected to re- port.
 Garvey, by virtue of his perform ance during the last games of the 1927 season when he made Yale forget the loss of Bruce Caldwell. is almost assured of place. Decker will compete with Lampe. Saunders. Hubbard and McEwen, former subs, and Dunn, former freshman back.
 Billhardt. Switz. R. Hall. Cruick- shank and Weiner will be available at quarter should Hoben's injury force him out. Another possible quarter is Ellis a former Exeter sprinter. who was unable to play last year because of an injured knee.
