tention on the less philosophical
problem of scoring touchdowns in

of Mississippi.
Frank Mccormick, athletic director,
alone pursued his investigation of
system employed Saturday by North
western in maintaining scouts in the
elevated press box who communicated
their observations by telephone to
coaches on the sidelinc bench.
Mccormick Monday regarded the
practice as "unethical' as he had Sat
urday, when he ordered the telephone
disconnected in the fourth quarter
just before Minnesota scored to de-
feat the Wildcats Z to 0. But Tuesday
he took the position that 1T wasn't
very serious although new to me-"
Coach Dick Hanley of Northwest
ern. said he had used the system for
some time, that assistant coaches
from the vantage poilH of the press
box kept him informed of the ply
steal condition of his players. He
said he saw nothing new or unfair in
the practice
Mccormick appeared to be disturb
ed because his department had not
been asked permission to set up the
telephone circuit The university
ticket bureau approved its installation
but this agency is under another uni
vcrsity department.
Mccormick said when he had COM
pleted his investigation he will submit
his findings to Kennth L. Wilson,
Northwestern athletic director. He
denied reports he would file a protest
with Major John l.. Griffith, Western
Conference Athletic commissioner.
Other Big Ten coaches besides
Hanley said they saw nothing 'un-
ethical in the practice with Coach
Harry Kipke of Michigan, undefeated
this year. explaining that he had con-
sidered adopting it but that his team
has been getting along pretty we'll
