Old Grad Drawn From
Civilian Ranks Apt
To Coach Army
By the Associated Press

WEST POINT, N. Y. Dec. 90
The United States Military Academy
is the newest contribution to foot
balls rumor foundry. now that the
Army has called Capt. Bill Wood
from coaching the cadet gridders to
active service with the lst Cavalry
at Fort Bliss. Tex.
Strongest of the reports was that
the academy Athletic Board would
strike compromise by continuing
its graduate coaching policy, but
taking that graduate from civilian
ranks. This would narrow the field
to such candidates as Biff Jones of
Rose Bowl-bound Nebraska, who al
ready has said he's happy at Lin
coin; Maj Bob Neyland of Sugar
Bowl-bound Tennessee, and Earl
Blaik of Dartmouth.
Wood. whose new orders will put
him on California bound trans
port out of New York February 6,
coached the Army teams for three
years in which they won IL of %
games.
Wood. appointed to West Point
from Johns Hopkins in 1921. was a
l2-letter man in football, basket
ball and baseball. He was acknowl-
edged one of the Easts finest punt
ers, and in his final year captained
the basket ball team.
Graduated in 1925, he returned
here in 1881 to serve as assistant
and head backfield coach until he
was named head coach in 1887.

NEW YORK, Dec. 20-Prize-
fighting is a funny business, as wit
ness tonight's 1O-rounder at the
Garden between Lew jenkins, the
lightweight champion, and Fritzie
Zivic, the welterWeight boss.
On their recent records there is
no good reason to suppose that they
are anywhere near evenly matched.
Zivic figures to be a shoo-in. Yet
the heavy advance sale indicates
that the Garden will be filled to its
distant caves, and at a nice increase
in prices. too.
The only way to account for it is
jenkins punch, the established fact
that the skinny, holloW-eyed little
guy from SWeetWater can knock the
ears off anybody he can hit right,
up to heavyWeights.
Lew Must Protect Middle.
There is quick comparison be-
tween jenkins and Zivic, as both
have fought Henry Armstrong in the
past year. Henry, then welterweight
champion, gave jenkins a cruel
beating in their outdoor meeting and
forced Lew to quit between the
sixth and seventh rounds. Zivic
only few months later beat Arm
strong in a furious battle at the
Garden to win the 147-pound title.
II anything was learned about
Jenkins in his bout with Armstrong
it was that he was TOO light and too
fragile to fool with welterWeights.
Armstrong tore his middle apart.
Yet tonight Lew will be giving away
some 10 pounds again, and it is
doubtful that Zivic will neglect the
thin mans middle.
The match was brought on bv
Jenkins quick knockout of Pete Lello
few weeks ago. The first left that
exploded on Lello's chin knocked
him fiat, and the crowd went wild
at the savage fury with which Lew
finished him off.
Jacobs Quick to Make Match.
Promoter Mike Jacobs heard the
yelling. and he knew he wanted
jenkins back in the Garden ring
before Christmas. Zivic happened
to be the handiest opponent within
Lewis weight range. He snapped it
| up like money from home.
The two should provide a fast. in

teresting fight, with Zivic sharp
shooting his grim little rival and
piling up points while jenkins trails
him and trys to slay him with a
punch. The odds at last account
were to 8 on Zivic, the gamblers
obviously satisfied that the Pitts
burgh veteran will be able to evade
Lew and pepper him enough to win
a decision.
Neither title is at stake. so what
ever happens Zlvic still will be the
Welter champion when he fights
Armstrong again on January II. 1t
wouldn't help that bout much
though, if Fritzie should forget to
duck tonight.
