FELTON,. OF Harvard, has been a
long kicker ever since he played on
his freshman team, and has been
steadying down yearly until this
season he kicks very much like his
master. Haughton. with somewhat In
creased distance. His kicks are long
and high. so that the ends with their
difficult task of getting down the reld.
