The choice is a wise one, for Kirsch is undoubtedly the most successful college coach in the U. S. today. His record of lour championship teams in five years (he has been coach at Illinois University) Is proof enough of his coaching ability. England has at last come to realize that the U. S. is her equal if not her supei ior in almost every branch of sport. The employment of Kirsch seems to indicate that the British attribute the success of American teams to the American coaches.
