ANOTHER WEEK OF DEVELOPMENT IN DIXIE COLUMBUS, Ga., April 21.—The In d-.istrialy Index says in its issue for this week: “No more substantial, direct evidence of progress in the Southeast could be furnished than is that which is given in the continual voting and marketing of municipal, county and state im provement bonds. There is a good market at satisfactory prices for these securities, and from the sale of the bonds millions of dollars are being de voted to construction work in this part of the country. “The election in Birmingham. Ala., upon municipal improvement bonds has been fixed for June 5. The vote will be upon $2,000,000 of school bonds and $500,000 of light plant bonds. “A New York house has purchased an issue of SBOO,OOO bonds of Montgom ery, Ala., paying $4,701 more than the principal. “Drainage bonds of the state of Flor ida in the sum of $2,000,000 have been sc Id to bankers of Baltimore, Mr., and Wilmington, Del., and the work of re claiming the rich Everglades will pro gress more rapidly. “Putnam county, Fla., sold $233,180 of road construction bonds, and Lown des county, Miss., sold $178,000 of bonds voted for the same purpose. “Municipal improvement bonds have been voted in Barnesville and Tifton, Ga., and elections upon issues of the same character will be held in Bonifay and DeFuniak Springs, Fla., Jackson ville and Florence, Ala., and Laurel and West Point, Miss. “A company of investors has pur chased for $170,000 cash a tract at The Sport World With Local Color Dished Time to Time NEW YORK, April 21.—Final de tails of the Yale football coaching sys tem for the coming season have been completed after months of conference and consideration, with the result that the Eli gridiron machine will make a new start next fall under the direction of experienced player-coaches. What the outcome will be only time can de monstrate. New coaches and systems are no longer a novelty at Yale and in recent years the changes have not lifted the play of the elevent to the heights reached by the teams Os past decades. The personnel of the new coaching group promises well for in Tad Jones, Mike Sweeney, Dr. Billy Bull, Arthu> Mcßride and Clarence Olcutt, the Blue has brought together five men who know football both from the playing and coaching standpoint. With Walt er Camp in an advisory- capacity and William Marting as freshman coach, the circle is well rounded out and should produce results from the very beginning. Yale has the material for a representative eleven this autumn and with cooperation among the can didates, undergraduates and alumni, should prove more formidable through the entire season than was the case a year ago. It must not be forgotten .however, that Harvard will have Haughton back to direct a coaching policy which is now firmly- established at Cambridge and that “Speedy” Rush at Princeton is well advanced along the same lines. Eastern college football has reached the point where it is little short of i complicated science and success against well developed systems can not be achieved in a few months. Many close observers hold to the opinion that the new group of coaches v. ill not attempt radical changes but rather revert, to some extent, to the system in vogue before the slump of the past few years. While ’ such j changes as are necessary to bring the ■ ■play up-to-date will, of course, be installed, the coaches are likely to go back over the past few seasons and ' pick-up the broken threads, as Yale has had a coaching system since 1888. Previous to that date there was no coaching policy. From 1889 to 1895 the captains did the chief coaching, advised by- Walter Camp, and assisted by returning graduate players. Then ensued a period of ups and downs, during which all-season head coaches Miami, Fla., and will develop it ex tensively. A residence tract will be im proved at a large outlay at Miami, Fla., and SIOO,OO will be expended in this development of a tract at Vero, Fla. “Another cotton mill at Columbus, Ga., is to be enlarged, the contract for the additional buildings being for about SIOO,OOO. “Twenty-one corporations have been formed in the week, with minimum capital stocks aggregating $1,200,000. “Among the items of construction work to be done as reported this week are: “Apartment house, Augusta. Ga.; building to be remodeled for occu pancy by banks, Birmingham, Ala., and •Miami, Fla.; bridges, DeSoto county and Vero, Fla.; church building, Clarksdale, Miss., and Sparta. Ga.; clubhouses. Lakeland and Tampa. Fla.; factory building, Clearwater, Fla.; office building to be remodeled, Atlanta, Ga.; filtration plant, Columbia. S. C.; road, DeSoto county, Florida; waterworks system, Cocoanut Grove, Fla.; warehouse. Augusta, Ga. “Construction contract have been awarded as follows: “Apartment houses, Atlanta, Ga., and Tarpon Springs, Fla.; bank building to be remodeled, Jacksonville, Fla.; church buildings, Cochran, Ga., and Elloree, S. C.; city hall, Douglas, Ga.; factory building, St. Petersburg, Fla.; hotel building, Palatka, Fla.; electric light plant and waterworks system, Ocala, Fla.; paving and sewers, Eus- / tis, Fla.; school building, Jacksonville, >Fla.; warehouses., Augusta, Ga., and Greneville, Miss. were in charge and no particular graduate was at the helm. But strong graduate support was given the cap tains, and Brink Thorne’s and Jim Rodgers’ teams won striking success es. A third period then came in, of ten years, beginning with Mcßride's 1899 team, during which the new tra ditional Yale football coaching system was developed. Under this system the captain had full power. Generally the proceeding captain was head of field coach. Camp was chief adviser, and each year ev erybody came back and was assigned special position-coaching to do. During this period Yale won both from Har vard and Princeton eight times, tied once and lost twice—sixteen victories, two ties, and four defeats. From 1910 to 1913, the old system wavered or was regained year by year, each captain making attempts to stem the tide of disaster due to a diversity of causes (not the least of which was the rise of stronger competitors) and trying out new coaching systems. The last two years have seen a still more rad ical effort made to reorganize, but without success. Following a number of shoot-offs the final standing of the various teams in the Inter-City tournament of the United States Revolver Association has been announced as follows: Class A. Olympic Club of San Francisco; Class B, Boston; Class C, Rifle and Revolver Club of New York Clas;s D Youngstown; Class E, Citizens Club, Ro .-.ester, N. Y.
