While manjr o( the coaches are snouting "How ran e put out a real team with such a de plorable lack of practice Urns'" ths Orance mentor .will to to the annual coaches conference at New York late thta month to urge a reduc tion la practice sessions as one method of leasentng the emphasis oa th fame. e e e Sohlaaler's suggestion.

The Oregon Stat man believes fall practice should be limited to two hours each Bight, snd spring practice to one and a bait hour. e e A serious application ot this principle would strike bom particularly hard at the Unlversltv of Oregon where fall practice pertoda begin in . o'clock twilight and oftea continue deep Into the eve lng under the electric lights of Hayward field.

Al Wlttmer of Princeton Is the Isteet reach to have quit In face of written criticism by undergraduates. Ths Dally Prinretonlan politely euggested thst a change of coache would not damage Tiger football pres tige. The New Tork university Daily News cam out with a time to retire" editorial. Head Coach Chick Merhaa resigned. Wlttmer was declared to have lacked technical football knowledge; Meehsa was b. inded as a disciple of th bigger and better type ot football and hence Inimical to N. T. U.'s impending sports purification. But whatever the basts of ths attacka, all ware successful. By wav ot contrast, the Mis souri Student, publication at ths University "of Missouri, baa not won Ita editorial be'tle. The game, quit the team attar th first year with Speara. Londahl became the center of Captain McEwan's back field attack late In 111, and for auch a small man his ex hibitions were spectacular. The following year Londahl. un der Dr. Speara, was very near aseless in the backfield Night after night ot long, sever practice, accompanied by Incessant verbal "dressing downs' from the new coach from Minnesota, apparently sapped both the spirit and stamina from oae of the beat little men Oregon ever had. Londahl. disappointed and discouraged, didn't even re turn to the university last fall for his final year of competition. e e If It la Impossible with definitely, limited practice to develop the sort of teams col leg ea want, perhaps It would be better to stsrt practice earlier In the fall and then bold down the dally grind to two hours. Five days means a lot la conditioning a team, and the whole Pacific eoast conference would feel much better if th atarting time waa moved to September ID Instead ot September IS. That would allow almost three weeks' training before th majority of schools take np class work, and It most certainly would go a long way to eliminate the much dis cussed question ot football's present conflict with the bus iness of mental education. ssseasassaassaas asv s miss,' ss?yvTroVA-evew-yvCT1 WfWm MOTHER I 1M W .

Maybe lbs attacks which pre ceded reslgnstlons of coaches were not the compelling reasons for the reelgrmttona ot coachea, but It is certain that coaches oa ths "bonier line" were In no wise aided by the written criti cisms.
