Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 3.-Coacf
Haughton is out in fiat-footed opposition
to the continuance of football relations
between Harvard and Dartmouth.
His stand is assumed from the delib'
crate attack made upon the Dartmouth
team at the Harvard Club banquet at the
Hotel Somerset. in which he denounced
the playing of Dartmouth in last Satur-
days game at the Stadium.
IT object to the playing of the Dart
mouth team in last Saturdays game for
many reasons, but principally because II
gives football a black eye. Dartmouth
gained absolutely nothing by her rough
playing. 1t led TO her defeat, while Har-
ward players suffered no injury.
Harvard did not use entrgy to extend
herself to dirty tactics, but gave an ex-
hibition Of clean and scientific football.
manly manner, and the result was a
tribute TO their heed Of the coaches in
structions."
Concerning the Yale game, Haughton
said:
Harvard this year is picked to whip
Yale. but do not place too much conf
dence in what you read about the chances
of the team or be guided too strongly
by the comparison of scores.
I'm reality this comparison means
nothing. Opinion as to the teams can
alone be based on experience. History
has shown that Yale has accomplished
miracles in two weeks. and in 1910 when
every one was predicting an early win
for Harvard, We suffered a moral defeat
We must not get overconfident or allow
this present confidence to get TO our
team.
