ago. II WOu1O uATU1y nAppSA NA1
Harvard today is right back
where it was .bAfore the late
Percy HaughtOn took charge. It
awaits, apparently, another Heugh-
ton to pull it out of tie muck
and the mire.
Harvard was . pitiful victim
of Yale elevens for years until
1908 when Haughton assumed
control Of It's football destinies.
That year saw Vic Kennard's ia
nous field goal at old Yale field,
giving Harvard a victory, A to O.
In nine years under Haughton
Harvard whipped Yale and Prince
ton five times each, lost twice to
Yale and once to Princeton and
played two scoreless games with
Yale. Haughton gave up his
task in 1915, believing that Bob
Fisher, a great lineman in his
college days, could carry on.
Fisher has failed to do this and
will probably be superseded be-
fore another season rolls around.
Ted Coy's eleven defeated Har-
ward at Cambridge in 1909, Coy
kicking two field goals and Har-
ward making safety. The score
was 8 to 0. The next two games
with Yale ended without scoring
by either team.
In 1912 began the greatest
years for Harvard in it's Big
Three relations. Yale was beaten
20 to 0. Percy Wendell, now Lee
highs coach, led that Harvard
eleven and two Of his stars were
Charlie Brickley and Tack
Hardwick.
In 1913 Charlie Brickley kicked
four drop field goals and one
from placement against Yale
Eddie Mahan's great running
brought the ball close enough
for the brilliant Brickley to per
form.
Brickley led the Harvard clever
in 1914, though appendicitis kept
him out of the Yale contest. But
there were others and Harvard
won, 36 to 0. Coolidge's recovery
of a tumble and his run of IS
yards for a touchdown featured
the early stages of that game.
Eddie Mahan, by many con.
sidered greater than Red Grange
captained the 1915 Harvard clever
which defeated Yale Al to 0, al
Cambridge. Six touchdowns, -four
by Mahan, were chalked up fol-
Harvard. That score is still tor
hole in the Yale-Harvard series
Four touchdowns and five goals
from touchdown gave Mahar
twenty nine of his teams forty
one points.
In 1916, Haughton's final yeal
at Cambridge, Harvard defeated
} Yale, 6 to 3.
Haughton's elevens knew foot
ball from the ground up and were
a machine at all times. Haughtol
never complained of not havins
material. He took what he had

It appears to any biased OBJ
server that a preacher isn't a
bad animal to have hanging
a college gridiron. Particularly
if he is a good, strong player
annd doesn't get his signals
mixed.
A pastor who could run, kick
and pass would be more than a
triple threat if any of his en-
treaties ever drew an echo. He
would be quadruple plated, four
plyed and worth his weight in
oratory whether in the game or
on the sidelines.
The particular sky-pilot in

fluence against Red Grange; but
next year he'll be eligible for
the varsity, and if they don't
make him the quarterback, then
Penn ought to have a new
coach.
Official reporters at next
years games will be constrained
to describe the plays as follows:
"The Rev. Mr.. Urban recov-
cred the - ball, and ran
like until he was tackled
on his own waistline, thrown
for a goal and had the devil
trampled out of him generally
while the congregation went into
Mysteries"

natural gloss and well-groomed eff
