The Football Captain

S'pose you think a football
captain is a wonderful fellow.
S'pose you think he does all the
work, and, therefore, is entitled
to all the honors. But if you
read Sol Metzger's next article in
these columns, entitled "The
Football Captain" you'll change
your mind with great sudden
ness.
"The captain is rarely a lead
er," says Metzger, "and the add
ed responsibility often proves too
much of a loa dto carry. A team
cannot be composed Of ten play
ers and a captain"

While Pennsylvania attitude toward
intercollegiate sport has been awarded
by having the I. A A a. book its 1918
spring track and field championships ut
Franklin Field. Cornell University's
sportsmanship in going through a stir
football schedule with the greenest Of

The 1913 championships have practically
been promised TO the 1thacans for
Schoell1opf Field.
Harvard's unwillingness TO support the
associations athletic program eliminated
the Crimson from any share in the title
events. although the Harvard stadium
has perhaps the fastest track in the
country. Even now, Harvard is unde-
cided what to do about athletics
next spring.
