Informal spring soccer practice will start this afternoon when candidates will meet Jack Kershaw newly-appointed soccer coach, at 3:30 o'clock in the Soldiers Field Locker Building.
Coach Kershaw, whose appointment to succeed Coach White of the 1926 team was announced last night, was born in Lancashire, England, and has played soccer abroad and in this country for fifteen years. After playing on an English professional team of the Northern Third Divisional league, he came to the United States and played on some of the best teams in the country, being a member of Fore River team of Quincy in the National Championships of 1920. For the past six years he has been manager and coach of the Abbot Worsted team in Forge Village, Westford, and succeeded in producing three championship teams.
Coach Kershaw, since he plans to choose his 1927 team largely from the men who play this spring, expects a large number of candidates. The Coach, Manager C. R. Keene, '28, Captain J. R. Carr, Jr., '23, and Director of Athletics W. J. Bingham '16 will speak at the initial meeting this afternoon.
