HARVARD IS OPPOSED
Coach Bob Fisher Declares Crimson Team i> Against Coffin Plan Of ConduCtino Games.

Cambridee Mass, March 1S.--The Harvard football team will not partlcl- pate in any experimental trial of the Coffin plan to limit the duration of playing periods by q definite number of plays if Head Coach Robert T. Fisher can prevent it. The coach de- clared yesterday that he was un- alterably opposed to the plan and would not favor it's use by the Harv- ard eleven as an experiment even in an early season game.
 The attempt of the Rules Com mittee to make a touchdown worth more than two field goals, by the elimination of the punt-out, was an excellent move" said Coach Fisher. but elimination of the stop-watch from the game would be disastrous, and oppose even it's trial by a Harv- ard team in competition
 Assurance that the HauShton 'sNs- tem' will continue to be the basis of Harvards football was given by Fisher
 We will never discard the HauSh- ton system while it is successful he stated, but this does not mean that new wrinkles will not be developed. The graduate football committee has been at work on new plays which we believe will strengthen the attack and these innovations will get a thorough trial in the stadium this spring.
