Up to the time of this decision, there had remained great speculations to whether the University wished to retain Rice. Reiss, though, stated that Fordham now has "the best man for the job." "If there was not sufficient confidence in him, Rice would not have been appointed," he explained.

It was made clear to me by [William] Crawley when I arrived that I would never become a full-time coach. All the job could offer was the opportunity for me to build a reputation; then 1 could go outand get a better job. In that respect, I cannot complain, because Fordham was straight with me." These are the words of a gracious but defeated man. After laboring long and hard hours as swimming coach, and watching his team battle against overwhelming odds to post an unbeaten record for the first time in fifty years, Ed Brennan may soon be out looking for anew job. He has just not received the cooperation he deserves. Obviously the University has forgotten all too quickly about the furor raised on campus over the departure of former coach Joe Bernal to Harvard. If Brennan leaves, there will be even more trouble. And his first step has been taken. It was during the early part of the season, after the third meet, that Brennan handed in a letter of resignation to Athletic Director Dave Rice. He cited financial reasons, ex plaining that he could not support his family on the income received from this, a part- lime job. As a part-time coach of both the men's and women's swimming teams, Brennan makes only six thousand dollars. And his long hours at work with these teams, whether recruit- Coach Tom Penders confers with team during a game ing or poolside, give him virtually no opportunity to find another job to supplement this income. He even has trouble finding time for his family; he has been home for three weekends since October. Late Game Drought So the Fordham administrative posse is obviously ready for another lynching.
