MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON. THURSDAY, DECEMBER 28, 1933. PAGE TWO FAULTS OF GRID MENTORS BEFOREJVIEETING Wholesale Shifting Due to . Failure Mix With Faculty Too Much Specializa tionTesty Before Games CHICAGO. Dec. 38. (AP) rootball coaches would bold their Jobs longer It they taught another sport and made themselves mora Indispensable to their schools. H. J. Btegeman. di rector of athletics at the University of Georgia, told the American Foot ball Coschee" association today. "In the aouthern conference, a group of 38 collegea and universities, the fatalities of football coaches has been so high that there have been 81 of them within the apace of U years," Btageman aald, "and I think that Is a fair criterion of the move ment In other conferences. Causes of Hlilftlim. "What are the causes for the con atant, wholesale ahlftlng? Blmply this: The coach didn't mix with the laculty; ho failed to add anything to the life of the community other than produce a football team; he failed to place himself at the dis posal of the college administration: he suffered from too much specialisa tion and Ignored other sports; he was discourteous to newspapermen and the newspapermen finally got hlmi he was too serious and unbear able before even the unimportant games." Recruiting and subsidizing of ath letes are on the wane. Dan McOugtn of Vanderbllt university, president of the association, said, but where those two Ills are found, the re sponsibility Ilea squarely on the ad ministrative board and Its president. Don't Blame Coach. "It la childish and foolish to blsme a coach for recruiting and subsidis ing," President McOugln said. "Where a coach has been active In recruiting, It la because he was employed by the college to do It. Here and there soma college president might set up a plausible alibi or disclaim any knowledge of recruiting. But he could hardly set up an alibi for the lack of a suitable scholastic standing. If students are compelled to make proper preparation .for college and hen compelled to give a proper echo listlo performance after he gets In. most of the Ills of football would fade." Discussion of rule changes was con tinued today, but It was more and more evident among the coaches they favored a "hande off" policy.

(AP) Authorities announced today they had discovered a large scale plot to poison high officials of the Finnish army's technical groups and ordered a dead official's body exhumed in the belief he was murdered. The alleged plot, they claimed. Is part of what they describe as the espionage conspiracy In connection with which two Americans, Mr. and Mrs. Arvld Jacobson of Michigan, were arrested October 37, Jacobson was a mathematics instructor In the Northville, Mich., high school three years. The body to be exhumed la that of Lieut. Col. Fritz Walter Asplund. di rector of the state munitions works until his sudden death last April. Police physicians win conduct an autopsy to determine whether he really died from Inflammation of the lungs, the cause given on his death certificate. Police say the symptoms of death from lung Inflammation and from certain kinds of poisons are similar. It was recalled today that, at the time of Asplund's death, three other officials were suddenly taken seriously 111. TWINS HAVE TWO FATHERS, IS RULE E Court Decision Is Received With Skepticism by Medi cal Science Mother's Ad mission Important Factor YANKTON, 8. D-, Dec. 28. (UP) The legal claims that twins born 10 years ago to Mrs. Ewald Peddle had three parents were recognized today In the court of Judge A. B. Tripp when the Jurist granted Peddle's claim of a divorce on Infidelity grounds. The divorce plea waa believed to be without precedent In legal annals and medical authorities aatd such a case had never been authenticated by science, although theoretically possible. Peddle's petition, won by default, claimed that his wife had been un faithful and had admitted her Infi delity. Peddle maintained that he was the father of one of the twins born to his wife and that a neighbor was the father of the second child. Medical testimony presented to the court said that In a case of fraternal twins It was possible for & different man to father each child. The court, Impressed by the weight of the evidence, awarded to Peddle custody of the boy which he said was his and gave the mother cus tody of tiie son whose parentage is disputed. Peddle testified that his wife had told him that only one of the boys waa his. The twins, said Peddle, re sembled each other In no important physical characteristic. One boy looks much like Peddle. The other, said the husband, resembles the neighbor with whom the mother admitted in fidelity. The opinion of a medical expert entered in the court records said: "In case of fraternal twins, the children might develop from two separate cells of the female. Impreg nated at two different times within the interval which might be as great as several hours." tlfle proof of the parentage 1 al most Impossible to prove." Ned man said that a few cases sim ilar to the Yankton twins had been claimed in the past but that no proof ever .nad been furnished of the phenomenon.
