seemed definite that Bo McMillin tract to coach and manage the Detroit Lions of the National League. The dean of Big Nine coaches was in the Motor City and there was a possibility that isomething official would come in the way of an announcement of his acceptance this afternoon. Meanwhile, two things were more or less certain at Indiana. Won't Tie Hands Again One was that the trustees wouldn't tie their hands by signing a coach to another long-term contract which worked “only one way.” The other was that unless the Hoosier school signed Jimmy Conzelman, coach of the Chicago Cardinals, and this was entirely unlikely .., , it has lost its peer

" As a coach, one of the first names advanced was that of Pete Rucinski, whose East Chicago Roosevelt teams have claimed three straight mythical state high school titles,
One Indiana High School Association official, who did not presume to speak with authority, said he felt that Rucinski would be a good choice since he would bring closer liason between the University and the state high schools. : Magnabosco Mentioned “The fact that some of the Calumet district's burly boys undoubt-

Indiana would have a precedent for such a move. . The state university went to Ball State to get Branch McCracken as a basketball coach. McCracken, incidentally, was considered as a candidate for the athletic director's job it the two are kept separate. See Speedy Action Trustees saw the necessity for speedy action on McMillin's successor. Spring football practice is due to start in a few weeks and it is almost imperative that at least an acting coach be obtained to direct the play and map plans for next fall, Some 10 days ago McMillin first twas mentioned as a possibility for the Detroit job, but he insisted at that time that he was called in only as a consultant and he made the statement that he hoped it wouldn't be construed that he

Louis asserted that he still planned to hang up his gloves after the June scrap—"win or lose”—and that Promoter Sol Strauss of the 20th Century Club had injected the third-bout con-
