Most of his friends stated that the turbulent history of athletics at the school during the past two years was the cause of bis resignation. James Hagans appointment as Pitt athletic director in 1937 was followed by a series of reforms to purify athletics. Later followed Chancellor John G. Bowmans code which cut athletic scholarships, pushing Pitt toward athletic mediocrity. Unquestionably constant bickering with officials and players alike hastened Sutherlands decision. In 1927, 1929, 1932 and 1937 his Pitt teams played in the Rose Bowl at Pasadena, Calif. He won the last game, defeating Washington 21 to 0. In 1927 Stanford won 7 to 6. The second game saw Southern California win 47 to 14, and in 1932 Southern California defeated the Panthers 35 to 0. His coaching ability Is reflected by his record. His teams won the eastern championship eight times, once at Lafayette, where he formerly coached, and seven times at Pitt. His e record at Lafayette was 33 victories, eight defeats and two ties, and 111 victories, 20 defeats and 12 ties at Pitt. Of the 186 games played, his teams have won 144, lost 28 and tied 14. Sutherland has made no secret of prospects for a mediocre team in 1939. Freshman squad ranks were depleted through ineligibility, and 11 regulars were lost to this years team. All men are fools.

Others meriting a place on his dream team were Lou Gehrig, A1 Simmons, Ed Delehanty, Amos Strunk, Stuffy Mclnnis, and Joe Cronin. The old master is credited as being the greatest developer of talent in baseballs history. His name brings to mind such players "as Jimmy Dykes, Foxx, Eddie Plank, Chief Bender and the extremely eccentric Rube Waddell. He isnt ready to retire.

Larruping Lou is now 36 years old, and even the toughest of men must ultimately bow to time. He has been circling the bases for the past 16 years, 14 of them with the Yankees. He had run his string of consecutive season games to 2,123 when the Yankees finished last season, before their third straight world series triumph. It is one of the greatest records in baseball history, and may stand forever, as physical hazards have increased with a faster game.

The Manassa Mauler today is more of a drawing card ,than most heavyweight contenders. Ring followers attribute his popularity to two reasons: First, the long count at Chicago. Numerous fans thought that Dempsey won the fight, thus it established him as a martyr. Second, Dempsey actually enjoys mixing with fans who want his autograph, who want to shake hands with him, and who demand so much of his time. ' The former champ is always available for an interview, and his colorful personality have made him newsworthy copy for a generation. He is smart in giving out interviews. He refuses to talk on matters of which he is not familiar. Though his ring prognostications are often in error, he doesnt make the customary mistake of furnishing alibis for his prophetic mistakes. He merely keeps silent, and by keeping silent escapes the criticism which often befalls the expert. As an ambassador of good will, Dempsey was recognized by the New York Boxing Writers association, which voted him the outstanding figure in the sport in 1938. Stray Stories Magazine.
