HAUGHT0N DECLINES
Percy D. Refuses to Act As Chairman of Football Committee at Harvard Signs of Discontent Appear.

Cambridge, Mass, April 7.-Percy D. HaughtOn, who last week an nounced he is through as Harvard football coach, has in truth severed all connection with Harvard football. Although urged repeatedly by the leaders of sport at the Harvard foot ball team, who will meet tonight to open spring practice, Haughton re- fused to consent. Furthermor ore Haughton has turned down coldly an invitation to become chairman of the Harvard advisory comm ittee on foot ball.
 There appears to be discontent among the rank and fi,e of HarVard's football enthusiasts at the failure to secure Haughtou. Sorae of the men 1t is said are thinking of taking war degrees instead of remaining here next fall and playing as they would if the old master was the big boss It is said the reason HaEghton severed relations with Harvard is because Harvard's pocketbool< wasn't bulky enough to keep Haughlcn on the pay roll.

DR. SHARPE'SPOLICY
 AT YALE DISCUSSED
New Coach Meets Managers and
 Captains Oi Various Sports

New Haven, April I'm a confer encc Saturday with all the managers and captains of Yale major and minor sport teams, Coach A Sharpe, general director of all Yale athletics, made statement of his policies He said that there would be no spring football because of two reasons. First because the men could harden themselves just as well by entering other sports in the spring, such as track and crew He recommended that linemen either take up crew work or enter weight events while back1eld men could spend time proftably under Johnny Mack practicing in starts and gate ways. His second reason was that by not being taken up with football work men standing enthusiastically low could improve their work so that they would not be on probation during the first fall practice.
 Dr. Sharpe recommended that q new clu bhousc be built at Yale field of such size to contain a locker for ez.- cry Yale undergraduate. He also made a statement as to what he con- sidered should be the relations be- tween captain, manager and coach of teams. He added:
 'In all our work we must never lose sight of the fact that there is something higher than victory which We are striving for. Tn the associa- tiOn with men of our own college it is essential indeed that every one do his best and when every one does his Yale best it is a strong combination to beat. As spOrtsmen we win or lose, but it is my purpose here to get the best teams possible, and with faculty and undergraduates behind me I feel that we will make a mighty good try. l feel that I will like the work here because it is Yale, and for me 1t is the biggest thing in life, so I sincerely trust the fellows will like having me hero

 for the Pacific Coast league, the

 association and other minor organiza- tions.
 The ruling means" Mir. Martin said, that the Southern association now has the right to !cgislate for it. self and has the right to govern it's internal affairs. It means freedom for minor league baseball"
