came swiftly, just two days after Sutherland was found wandering aimlessly in a Kentucky mudchoked swamp, apparently the victim of amnesia. Two emergency operations failed to save his life. Funeral services will be held at 4 p. m. tomorrow in Calvary Episcopal Church here. Sutherland’s body will lie in state at the church all day tomorrow, watched over by a guard of honor from the Varsity Lettermen’s Club ‘at the University of Pittsburgh, where Sutherland coached football for 15 years. Active pallbearers will be the members of the 1047 Steller eleven. Came to U. 8, in 1907 Johnny Michelsen, a former Pitt player and Sutherland’s chief assistant, is due to be named head coach of the Steelers. But that announcement won't come for a week or so. Sutherland was a poor Scottish lad when he came to America from Cooper Angus, Scotland in

towns for seven years before he could enroll at the University of Pittsburgh, where he studied dentistry. He had never seen a football game but became a star guard under Coach Glenn (Pop) Warner. After graduation, Sutherland served in World War I and coached his first football team-—
