I It goes without saying that P. C. I I loses much when Coach leaves—even I for a year. The football team which ' played so well for him in his twenty- hfth season here this year will miss him. He puts something into a team' I that goes beyond mere plays or thej fundamentals of blocking and tack- j ling. He puts drive, the urge to give! -•all you’ve got to win, into his play-■ ers. The team this year, though er-j ratic, showed this quality throughout) I the latter part of the season. , I However the college is fortunate,' ! we feel, to have another veteran j ! coach on its athletic staff ready toi i step into the breach.

Lonnie Mac has never been known to pamper his men. He expects them to take their athletics seriously, train! carefully, and work hard — and he | drills them accordingly. He develops: players who use their heads as well i as their hands; and he insists on fair; play and sportsmanship in the true' Blue Stocking tradition. j Lonnie Mac was outstanding dur-. j ing his college days in each of the | j three sports which he now coaches, j I He has been coaching for 20 years^ land his teams invariably make a1 I good record.
