it is established that neither the MIA the New York

GLAD TO ESCAPE PRESSURE
DePouw Job Makes
Mont Change Plans

Tommy Mont is back in the
coaching business because an
offer from DePauw University
came with Just two days to
spare.
The former University of
Maryland coach, weary of the
nerve-racking competitiveness
of big-time college football, was
headed for the less frustrating
life of private business.
81 was all set to start April
is in private business here"
Mont said today. Then two
days before that, I got this call
from DePauw. I went out there
for a visit and then spent the
next 10 days trying to make
up my mind"
Mont made up his mind
Monday, but told no one here.
The announcement of his APP
pointment as the new head
football coach at DePauw was
made by the schools president.
Russell j. Humbert, last night.
DePauw is located in Green
castle, Ind.

week." Mont says, land spend
a few days getting acquainted.

Redskins back says. "and all

The new job seems tailor
made for nice-guy Mont, who
agrees that DePauw has "the
kind of thing I'm looking for
in football-an Ivy League-type
setup. No football coach has
ever been fired by DePauw, and
I'm going out there with the
idea of staying"
