There is, however, one very cheering thing to be considered. That is the fact that Dartmouth, the opponent this coming weekend, has been having trouble with its pass attack all season. So far, Coach Red Blaik has relied exclusively, on his Indians' running offense, operating, moreover, from a very few simple plays. This situation would fit into the present Harvard setup a good deal better than did the serial bombardment of the talented Hobin. So perhaps there's light ahead

College of the City of New York last week hired as head coach Benny Friedman, Michigan's All-American quarterback who retired from professional football last...
York Sun with a story that not Kipke but Earle Blaik, assistant coach at Army, should he made Yale's new football coach. Other papers continued to ballyhoo Kipke. Finally Coach Kipke gave an interview to the Associated Press at Ann Arbor in which he said he had definitely decided to stay at Michigan. This report served to quiet the story for three weeks.
