FOOTBALL FATALITIES
TO DATE, ELEVEN

Debrutalized football has been as
brutal this year as the old. accord
ing to the list so far of this sea-
sons casualties.
The game this year has resulted
in eleven deaths.
The dead: Wilfred Galthaser,
Waterbury, Conn; John Cooper,
University of North Carolina; Al
bert Dougherty, Evansville Und.)

All the deaths but one resulted
from the open playing. The excep-
ton was the case of Charles Mar

Bend, Kas., and was run over by
the players and so seriously injur-
ed that he died.

Of her big scores. How much this
means can be appreciated only by one
who has seen an eleven try to play old
football against a team well versed In
the new. 1t is like jumping school

Another feature of Harvard's game
is the strength and speed of the backs.
Six Of them have been used so far.
They are White. Corbett, Smith, Ken
nard. Leslie and Forcheimer. On sew
eral occasions White and Corbett have
torn through the line for first downs in
single attempts.

have veteran end to begin the season

of Percy Haughton when he began in
September as head coach. Although
Harvard had in Burr the best punter
in the country. Haughton Immediately
set out to get another. His selection of

THE BEST kICkERS
EIevens With Good .Pigskin
Booters Score Victories
This Year.
COY OF YALE AND HIS PUNTS

The value Of a man who can drop
punt for long distances has been
proved in several big college football
games this season. One Of the most
conspicuous performers In this respect
has been Mike Balenu, the spry little
Cheyenne Indian, who has proved a
second Hudson for the Carlisle eleven
this season. Balenti's four goals from
placement In the recent Indian.Navy
game was noteworthy.
Balentfs work was little short Of
remarkable, as there was strong
wind blowing, which made accurate
kicking difficult, and two Of the goals
were from bad angles. But the Indian
was equal to the test and made per-
feet kicks the four times he tried.
All the more remarkable Is the fact
that Balenti had made few tries for
placement goals this year. This work
who made a brilliant success Of his
dob, for in two straight games he
made the amazing total Of six place
ment goals.
1t was not until late in the season
that Pennsylvania figured in the ranks
of goal kickers. For some time there
had been reports from Franklin field
that the red and blue had a wonderful
kicker In Jack Means, a 1870 pound
back, who hailed from Ohio State uni
versity. But Means never got chance
until the recent game with Carnegie
Tech In Pittsburg, when he made two
placement kicks. With Means In the
lineup Penn might have won from
the Indians.
Michigan also doomed up strong in
goal kicking. The Wolverines half
back, Allerdice, has been a consistent
performer in this department all sea-
son. He kicked three goals against
Vanderbilt recently, and one was
magnificent effort from the forty yard
mark
Wisconsin was fortunate In having
q goal kicker in it's contest with Mar
Suette, as the Badgers were a beaten
z--um until the closing minutes of play.
when Keckie Moll decided the issue
with clever drop kick from the thir-
ty-five yard mark.
Harvard had splendid drop kicker
IN Victor Kennard. Early in the sea-
son an injury forced him out for sew
eral weeks, but on his return Kennard
kicked several goals. Harvard has
not had a good drop kicker since the
days of Dudley Dean, and the devel-
cpment Of Kennard was heralded with
delight by the undergraduates.
Wheaton Of Yale and Captain Wal
Ger Steffen of Chicago are two able
opponents Of drop kicking. Wheaton
was considered to be one of the best
drop kickers In the east, while Steffen
led the hooters in the west. Dean Of
West Point has displayed great kick
ing ability in many games.
So far as punting is concerned, prob
ably the best man of the year Is Ed
ward Coy Of Yale, the sensational full
back, who boots the ball anywhere
from fifty to sixty yards with seeming
ease. The punts of Long John" Mil
Ter of the University of Indiana carry
farther than those of any other man in
the western college world.
The University of Pennsylvania has
depended much on Captain Bill Hol-
lenback's punting In the teams lead
ing contests this season.
Captain Burr Of Harvard is one Of
the greatest Of punters today. He
ranks close second to Coy Of Yale.

game Vas drilled into lin.
When Haughton took charge Of az
fairs at Harvard he had task before
er master. He had coached success
fully at Cornell, but there things were
different. There was a clocklike sys-
tenn working at Ithaca, and 1T needed
only winding. At Cambridge there was
no system whatever. Besides, the work
of several years had to be undone be-
fore a stroke of progress could be
made. There was material a-plenty to
work with, but matters were woefully
disorganized.
He began slowly, and some were du-
bious for several weeks over his at
tanning good results. but when the
headwork became apparent.
One of his first moves was to place
Burr back at guard, where he played
two years ago. Burr was a good tackle
last year. but the speed required in
that position exhausted him so that
his punts were inaccurate and often
fell short. Haughton set about devel-
oping Mckay, a new man, for tackle,
and today Mckay is considered to be
one of the best men In the position on
any field.
There is another man in Cambridge
who also has worked wonders with the
squad. He is w. F. e'Pooch'D Dono
van. Harvard's trainer. Until Haugh-
ton took charge Donovan was hand1-
capped by not having final word In
the conditioning of the men. Last fall
he advised letup in the work of sew.
eral players. but his advice was ig-
nored. This year he alone does the
training. while Haughton takes charge
when the players appear on the field.
There have been fewer accidents so
far on Soldiers field than on any other
gridiron OF its importance.

HAUGHTON'S GOOD WORK.

Harvard's splendid showing in the
early games has caused every football
enthusiast who follows the game close
ly to keep tabs on the crimson eleven
this season. Many expressions of be-
lief are heard that this may be Har.
ward year.
The fact that Harvard rolled up for
ty-four points in forty-five minutes of
play in the recent game against Spring
field and in heat almost oppressive to
the spectators is ample proof that the
crimson legged warriors are setting a
fast pace and keeping it up.
There has been ample evidence that
