FOR HARVARD
GRID POST

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Dec. s.
Eddie Casey was officially out as
Harvard football coach today and
Adam Walsh. former Notre Dame
star and present Harvard line
coach, was being doomed by the
Harvard Crimson, undergraduate
publication, as his successor.
Although it had been generally
known that Casey intended to re-
sign after one of the most dis
astrouS football seasons in Har-
wards history climaxed by a 4 to 0
defeat by Yale, Director of Athle-
tics William j. Bingham did not
disclose until last night that
Casey's resignation had been acted
upon at Monday nights private
meeting of the athletic committee.
Others mentioned as possible
successors to Casey are Hunting
ton R. cTack") HardWick, for
mer Harvard end and halfback;
Lou Little of Columbia: Andy
Kerr of Colgate; Gus Dorais of
Detroit; Jesse Hawley. former
Dartmouth coach and Harry
Kipke of Michigan.
Casey. a member of the class
of 1919 and an all-American back
after brilliant career at Natick
High School and Exeter Academy,
succeeded Arnold Horween as
mead coach in 1881. Casey's first
year as varsity coach was most
successful, Harvard defeating
every opponent. including Army,
except Yale. Over a four-year
period, Casey elevens have won
20 games, lost IL, and tied one
in 80 games.

Sherman Missed Chances
To anyone in the audience

rounds that the fight would be a
terrible thing. Sherman decorated

tative left that travelled in sec
tionS.
Any fighter trained in the rudi
ment of boxing could have timed
that left and countered with a
right to the head or body that
would have whitfield Hughes down
to matchstick dimensions. Hughes
proved he could take punishment
when he faced Kid Frattini who
battered him to a fare ye we'll
at the Auditorium. The officials
made grievous mistake in
identity and declared Hughes the
winner. But there must be limit
to endurance: even to the endur
ance of Cowboy Hughes.
The only excuse for a boxing
commissions existence is to safe
guard boxing. Muggsy Morris, the
referee, might have taken action
and lightly tossed the fighters out
of the ring. The members of the
commission might have tossed
them out and declared the thing
no contest.

PREXY GRIFFITH
CASTING FOR
PITCHER
BY FRANK BUCK O'NEILL
Times Staff Writer


The time has come to chat OF
baseball with the winter meetings
just around the corner. The mid.
winter meetings in New York will
be of interest to Washington fans.
for Clark Griffith probably will
take at least one rubber band off
part of the Boston bank roll and
buy pitcher or two or three. He
may do business with the Boston
Red SoX who want to do business
for an infielder and especially for
a first baseman. He might get an
outfielder, possibly from the
Yankees.
Last summer this space carried
the note that Ben Chapman
would welcome a change of uni.
form. The Gotham press turned
sour on Chapman last year despite
the fact that the Alabama boy hit
over 300 and was busy stealing
bases. There would be little weep
ing over stories bidding goodbye
to Chapman up there where the
dim bulbs soon fade out of Broad
ways picture.
Chapman would be a great guy
for this club if he could be got
ten for price within reason. He
can get that extra base on
single behind him, he can cover
ground, throw and steal. He is
a burgalr on the paths, There is
no man on the 1884 club-no out
fielder whom this writer would
keep at the expense of acquiring
Chapman. That goes for Manush.
Manush, incidentally. hit in 80
runs to 86 for Chapman, but he
had good lead in points on the
New Yorker.
Those Contracts!
We are going to see some in
teresting maneuvers this winter
when the Washington contracts
are mailed to the players. Some
will be signed. Others will bounce
back merrily when the outraged
players read the figures, which
common gossip has it, will be
written with safety razor blade.
Earl Whitehill, at present with
the tourists in the Orient, made
a public statement that Septem.
Der that he would not sign un-
less he received a substantial
increase in salary next year. He
didn't choose his words and
didn't pick his spots to make
his statements. He just laid it
on the line.
According to rumorS emanatlng
from sources said to be close to
the club, Whitehil( will be of.
fered contract at reduced
salary. and if you know the tenn.
peramental Mr.. Whitehill, you may
imagine what effect that will
have upon his nervous system.
So merry battle is on.
Different Portlands
There is another factor to
consider with Whitehill. and that
is that he likes Bucky Harris
when in Portland. Yes, sir;
when Harris is in Portland, Me-.
and when he, Whitehill, is in
Portland, Ore. The Yankees need
a left-handed pitcher to replace
Pennock and Russell Van Alta,
Whitehill would gladly join the
Yankees. So it may be White
