TO NAME HARVARD COACH.
Leo Leary May Re Selected to Sue
coed Percy Haughton.

CAMBRIDGE. Mass, March 13.-An-
nouncement was made last night that
the Harvard Athletic Association would
meet this evening to ratify a commit
tees selection of a coaching staff to
direct foot ball affairs next fall In
athletic circles at the college the be-
lief was expressed that Leo Leary. for
many years assistant coach, would be
in charge of the active field work. and
that Percy d. .Haughton. whose con-
tract expired last year. would head an
advisory committee, giving him much
the same influence that Walter Camp
exercised for a long time at Yale.
1t also was reported that overtures
were being made with Johns Hopkins
University to obtain the release of
Charles T.. Brickley, who has agreed
to coach there for another season, so
that he could return to Cambridge and
develop drop-kickcrs and coach the
backfeld men.
1t is generally agreed that the coach
ing staff this year will have hard
task to fill the vacancies caused by
the graduating of Capt. Mahan and
other stars in June, and the disuual-
ification OF Capt.-elect Gilman and
Boles and Enwright. leading backfield
candidates, because of scholarship diff
ficulties.
