Princeton, N. J.--"Fritz" Crisler, head coach of the Princeton football team for the past five seasons, resigned last night and announced that he had accepted the head coaching position at the University of Michigan "with additional duties in athletic administration."
Crisler told the press that "this has been a most trying decision for me to make in view of the kindly expressions of feeling on the part of the administration, faculty, alumni, and students of Princeton."
It is believed, however, that alumni pressure had been brought to bear on the Tiger mentor, due to the mediocre season of the Orange-and-Black last year. President Ruthven of Michigan implied that Crisler would receive a higher salary than the $7500 given Harry G. Kipke last year.
