Ripley Resigns as Eli Cage Coach After Princeton Win

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

After his Eli quintet had beaten Princeton by the score of 44 to 39, Coach Elmer Ripley submitted his resignation to the Yale Athletic Association. Ripley came from Georgetown in 1928 to take charge of the Yale quintet. He has no plans for the future.

Dissension made itself shown on the Blue squad early in the season when Bud Miles, Sophomore star, and brother of Captain Eggie Miles, turned in his suit after being kept on the bench throughout a game. He later made his peace with Ripley, and returned to the squad.

Ripley's teams have been uniformly successful throughout his career at Yale, but it is felt that his resignation was prompted by the lack of cooperation he was able to get from the squad this year.
