PLAYERS UNION FORMED TO HOLD UP MAGNATES EBBETS
HARVARD SET ASIDE
RULE TO HONOR MEN
Crimson Athletic Committee
Confers Ten Varsity Letters
by Special Award.

Spscial Dispatch to The New York HERALD.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Dec. i2.-Outstand
ing features of the business disposed OF
at the meeting of the Harvard athletic
committee to-day were the award of six
letters in football to men who didn't
play in the Yale game, the unusual dis
tribution of three major letters in tennis,
adoption of home and home baseball
series with Dartmouth for the first time,
another body blow given to the PROPOSE
ton to adopt boxing as an intercollegiate
sport, the listing OF swimming team
postponed until arrangements were made
for q Harvard pool and an inclinatiop
to look with small favor on the PROPOSE
ton to build links for the Crimson
golfers.
The committee sanctioned the game
with Rhode Island for the opening Of the
football season, October 6, at Cambridge.
This completes the Harvard gridiron en-
gagements, eight in all. The committee,
on the suggestion of the varsity football
players who took part in the game
against Yale and also backed with the
approval of the student council. voted
the "H' to the following six men, the
first four of whom had already Won 1t :
Henry Grew, Philip Coburn, Winthrop
Churchill, Joseph Hartley Vic Miller
and Francis Rouillard. Injuries to Grew
and Coburn prevented their playing
against the Ellis.
In consideration of their excellent
work during the last summer in England
as members of the combined Harvard
and Yale tennis teams, the major III
has become the property of Capt. Morris,
Duane. Karl Pfaffmann and William
Ingraham. Heretofore the only means
of making the big letter was to win the
Intercollegiate singles championship OF
the doubles championship.
The movement for a golf course to be
owned and operated by the athletic asso-
citation of the university was discussed
at the meeting, definite action being post
po1ed, but the proposition was looked
upon with little favor because Of the
great expense involved and the com
paratively short period that Harvard
would be In session during the golf sea-
son, as well as the fact that many other
improvements and additions to the
athletic equipment were necessary,
