Chicago, Dec 5-How long does it take to make a football coach |?
 Well, now that he is approach ing the end of the trail in com pleting his 18th season as play CT, Red Harold Grange would like to spend couple of campaigns under someone like Bob Zuppke, and then try his hand with a col lege team.
 I'm only now learning how to build defenses, and other vital fea- lures of the strategy of the game, ,' says Grange, who broke in as 2 high school back in the fall of 1919, and has since been the Galloping Ghost of Illinois, and the most magnetic single attraction in the history of professional football.
 But I know I'd get the hang of coaching in a couple of years under Zup."
 Listening to Grange. one doesn't wonder why youngster like Frank Carideo, rushed from the Notre Dame campus to the head post at Missouri. Topped.
 The tactical employment of foot ball players becomes a deeper sub ject with each succeeding autumn. There were plays unfolded this fall that would not have been consid- cred, even had they been thought of, a year ago.

 George Halas' reason for rating Carl Brum baugh, of the Chicago Professional Bears, the finest quar- terback he ever saw gives one an idea. .- s.r '
 "Brumbaugh has to have com plete understanding of IA plays and their variations, call the one best fitted to the situation in the what is as important, be master hand in it's execution" explains the Chicago owner and coach.
 Gala Mills appointment to fill the, vacancy left by Milt Olander's resignation indicates that the move to bring Grange back to Cham 'paign has failed. One of the nrl- merous Big Ten rules that is ridic- ulous automatically turns thumbs down on even its own products the instant he turns to football for spaghetti and meatballs instead of three hearty cheers and tiger.
 Everybody who knows Grange believes he would make a splen- did coach, and no one more richly deserves a chance.
 The old Wheaton iceman has devoted his life to football. That gives him the background. Ger tainly, he has the personality, and there is every reason to believe that he has the patience and the punch.
 If he could impart only small part of the hip movement that made him the most phenomenal running back in memory, he would be worth his weight in platinum. Not DctrOit's Year

SIXTEEN MINUTE
 HALVES IN CITY
 AMATEUR LEAGUE
Irish-Americans and Nau- gatuck Emleralds Meet
 Sunday

The city amateur basketball fans should see plenty of fast basket ball with the new league time rul- ing put into effect last night. The change in time calls for two 16- minute halves instead of the four teen minute periods that have been in use for the past two weeks. The system adopted last night is in accordance with the newer estab- lished rules in basketball and will serve to speed up the games with out the disadvantage to the fans watching the contest when it steps every few minutes in time-out pe- riods.
 An interesting slate has been arr ranged for Sunday with the Tri- bunes and Thomas club in the opener and the Brooklyn A. C.. meeting the Sacred Hearts in the second frame. The main attrac- tion at o'clock brings together the Irish-Americans and the Nau-' gatuck Emeralds, plus the dissen- tion between the players who are to participate.

We'll folks we predicted a scram- ble last week, but the actual re- suits far exceeded anything we could think of. You see there are now six teams fighting for a first and second place which are ali that count) and two points cover the pack of six. The three leaders, who were tied for first are now in second and third place ties and the dark horse, Steck, came up from 4th place to the top.
 With ten teams in the league 1t would be possible for the 9th team to win out in the next three weeks.
 The boys showed up in full strength last Friday and the firing from all sides commenced at once. One curious happening was a 40 first game tie between the teams of Connie Peppin and Dick White. On roll off White won.
 Anderson's team lost 4 points to Flammia, Colvin's team lost 3 points to McLane, Hoffman lost 3 points to Niven, while Peppin and White split even and Gay Steck took 4 points from Fox to take the lead. This Friday we expect an- other night of upsets, but give up any choice of the winning teams The standing to date:

CADETS TO MEET
 TORRINCTON FIVE

The Boys Club Cadets, varsity basketball team of the club, will stack up against the Wonder Five of Torrington Thursday night on the local clubs floor. The New City five boasts of some fine bas- keteers, and they should, no doubt, extend the local clubbers to the limit.
 The Cadets made an impressive showing Saturday night when they won their opening game from Wordens' Dairy Five, and proves their ability to enter the senior field of competition. The schedule of games so far calls for games with some of the leading state senior teams. One week from this Thursday the Waterville St. Mi- chaels will be the opponents, which game will be played here on the clubs surface.
 A preliminary game will open Thursday nights attra action, teams which will be announced later. It is hoped that the Junior Varsity that is to represent the local club in the Boys Club State Basketball League will furnish theis game.
