T. A. D. Jones Recommended To Coach Yale Football Team

The Yale committee which was appointed in December to select a football coach has recommended T. A. D. Jones, Yale 1908, to the Athletic Committee for appointment. A special meeting of the Athletic Committee will probably be held on Wednesday to discuss the matter. The recommending committee was composed of V. C. McCormick, Yale 1893, S. B. Thorne, Yale 1896, and J. R. Kilpatrick, Yale 1911. Jones was a star football player while in college, and was also captain of the baseball team. He has been head coach at Phillips-Exeter Academy for the last three years, and has had unusual success in developing teams.

The committee has also recommended Michael Sweeney, former champion broad-jumper of the world, and later athletic coach at Hill School, Pottstown, Pa., as football and track athletic counsellor.
