STANLEY IS NAMED
MENTOR AT BROWN.
Wholesale Shakeup in Ivy
League Coaches Appears
Almost Completed
BY BILL KING

PROVIDENCE, R. l., Feb. 12.-LP
The wholesale shakeup in the ranks
of New Englands ivy league" foot
ball coaching circles appeared al
most completed today when J. Neil
(Skip) Stanley, chief assistant to
Dick Harlow at Harvard for the past
six years, was appointed head coach
at Brown university.
While naming Stanley as success
sor to 'Tuss" McLaughry, who
moved on to Dartmouth after di-
recting the Bruins football for 16
years, Athletic Director Thomas w.
Taylor declined to divulge the length
or terms of the contract he signed.
Stanley is only the third professional
football coach Brown has engaged in
81 years
Since the 1910 season closed,
"Spike" Nelson has replaced "Ducky''
Pond at Yale, McLaughry has sue
ceeded Army's Earl (Red) Blaik at
Dartmouth, Yves Fesler has left Har-
ward to become head coach at Wes-
leyan, and two Brown assistant
coaches have moved on, Earl Brown
to Harvard and George (Eck) Allen
to the University of Maine.
Stanley, a 32-year-old, 20O-pound-
er, has spent all but one of his II
coaching years under Harlow's wing.
He joined the latter at Western
Maryland in 1880, following his grad
uation at Pennsylvania State, and
except for 1884, when he served as
head coach at Delaware, has been
with him ever since.
Skip is a fine man." Harlow said
when he learned he was losing his
most dependable aide.
II told him I would take the posi-
tion if l were in similar situa-
ton, and can say that he goes with
every good wish of Harvard Off
Gals"
Stahley's first task, before assum-
ing the direction of Browns spring
football on March Is, will be to
round up a staff of assistants.
The only survivor Of the Nc
Laughry corps is Denny Myers, the
line coach, who, according to re-
ports, was the football squads can
didate for the head coachship va
cancy.
Under those conditions, Myers
resignation generally is expected to
follow shortly, for it has been ru-
mored that Nelson has invited him
to return to Yale, where Denny
turned out great lines in 1935-36

Braddock Wants Doctor ToHelp

Mccoy fight in Boston in Decem-
Der. It's not that he's getting soft,
or anything like that, but tn e
drive, the old will he had when
he fought me in 1887, is gone.
Maybe 1 can make myself
clearer this way: Everybody, in.
cluding myself, knew I had about
one chance in hundred against
Louis in '37. He was a great fight
ing machine, did things instinctive-
ly. But after looking at Joe agains;
Mccoy and against Red Burman
two weeks ago, I feel that if
was the Braddock of four years
ago and was matched with the
Louis of today, there's possibil-
ity-noW, mind you, I'm not saying
positively-but it's possible 1 could
outgallop him and win a decision.

a chance any guy might beat him.
Personally, 1 think that if J e
doesn't get some of his stuff back,
the fellow who might do it is Billy

Jim's idea isn't that Louis is
loafing through his training. He
feels Joe is working just as hard
as ever, but that the same old
routine isn't enough any more,
that it's become monotonous and
doesn't put the Bomber into the
old peak of condition. His prep

fairly even terms for the first two
rounds, Greasy Swami suddenly
went on an offensive thrust and
rocked Billie Britt, of Lumberton,
with sudden furry of rights and
lefts to win the bout by a narrow
decision. In this bout both boys
were over-cautious for most of the
time and although Britt was sue
