Show Coach Keene Fitzpatrick Lauds Modern Football ' Keene Fitzpatrick, the trainer ' of Princeton athletes, says that the aerial football game that is being played i now has done more to make the sport develop as It has than any other single sin-gle factor. "A Yale-Princeton game today In my mind far surpasses the exhibitions in the days when huge tallyhos, drawn up behind the ropes, served as stands in the old Manhattan park at New York, where the Tiger and the Bulldog used to meet," said Fitzpatrick. He is of the opinion that punting and passing not only have given the players themselves them-selves a much better opportunity to make use of individual ability, but that from the view of the spectator, the interest in-terest in tli e game has improved vastly. In concluding, Fit;;pa trick said: "Without a doubt, football Is the national na-tional college sport of today. One of the main reasons why it has grown to be this is because it is so distinctly amateur." |
