Karr will succeed Dr. Dale Daugherty who resigned from the coaching staff to devote full time to work in the field of social studies. The newly appointed coach was graduated from the Illinois State Normal University at Normal and won his monogram in football there. Karr coached football at Robinson, Ill., High School for three years and during service in the Air Force played basketball with Keesler Air Force Base and Andrews Base against such teams as Tulane, Louisiana State and the University of Maryland. In addition, he managed a semi-pro baseball team in the Eastern Illinois League for two seasons. Karr then spent three years directing the freshman foot- ball team at the Big Ten school. Karr was selected from a field of 40 candidates according to Dr. Harold S. Alterowitz, director of athletics at Eastern. The new coach, who is 29, is married and the father of a two-year-old daughter. Karr plans no specific change in the present system. He thinks he will continue to use the split T if he has the proper material. However, Karr will place em- phasis on a running quarterback instead of a passing quarterback. Karr visited the Eastern cam- pus briefly and will return in June. He will assume his new duties July 1.
