Last year the 1 linkers beat ths
I'liivi-rsiitf ot I'ittsbureh in com
manding tyle and won greater fame
in this section ot the country mere
by than it would have won in a
dozen other battles that might be
mentioned offhand. Minnesota na
turally regards the coming of Lueh
riiio- as a most au.-picious event.
Katcrn football enthusiasts are in
clined to breathe with greater irce
dom than they have for the past 10
days or so. for it is assured that
Hugo r.ezdok, coach of 1'cnn .State,
will continue to train the ,,,any
Lions. It was rumored that Hezdck
would go to Minnesota, which ot
course would assure the Gophers of
a smashing team by 192.1, if not this
coming season. Bezdck has a way
of turning riiletmii out of mud. and
with the splendid material available
at Minnesota would soon have a real
eleven turning out gains for him.
Warner Got Panning.
Rumors of changes in coaching
stall's have been rife since ths
elevens hung up their mud-stained
shoes ami went into winter retire
ment. Bob Fisher was tha object
of much criticism because he did
not remove 1'itts from the Tnnccton
oamr nnil it was rumored ' that
1'ercy D. Houghton would return to
guide the Crimson gridiron teams.
However, lightning sought out even
brighter marks than Fisher. Some
Pittsburgh critics saw fit to pan
Glenn S. Warner, guide of the
Panthers, in unmerciful style. It
was laid that Warner would be re
leased at Pitt, but the rumor was
premature, since the wizard of the
grirliron has a two-year contract to
fulfill. ' T , c. '
The authorities at Lcland Stan
ford took the reports on Warner
seriously and for a while there was
much discussion on the possibility ot
Warner going to Palo Alto. Gene
Van Gent, coach of the Cardinals,
remained calm under the ciiticism
heaped upon him. It is true that
California whooped the Standford
eleven, running around the ends nd
smashing through the line right joy
ously. The undergraduates, espe
cially those who never played foot
ball, demanded reforms in coaching.
Williams Criticized.
This brings to view an interesting
phase of football at the Univensty
of - Minnesota. Last season the
criticisms of the team turned out by
Dr Williams were severe to the
point of being cruel. There were
blunt statements to the effect that
the team played "high school foot
ball. Faults that ordinarily would,
not be charged to the coaph inabil
ity of a player to think and that
sort of thing were put up to Dr.
Williams, according to the stories
from the middle west. "All of which
tends to give weight to the state
ment that the chief differences be
tween a good and a bad coach 13

established a new league mark for
