Man for Director
Harvard Athletics

Cambridge, Mass, Jan. 13-(AP)-
Appointment of a director of ath-
letics at Harvard will be made as soon
as suitable man can be found. The
president and fellows (known as the
corporation). announced their vote
today as follows:
"To establish the Office of a direct
or of athletics, who shall be chair
man of the committee on the regula-
ton of athletic sports Commonly
called the athletic committee) in ad-
dition to its present number, and who
shall, as such, become a member of
the faculty of arts and sciences"
The director, who would presum-
ably take office next fall, would have
supervision of organized athletics and
of physical exercises. Official COM
ment on the innovation was not
Forthcoming, but those in close touch
with athletic affairs in the university
said that the step was to meet fac
ulty members criticism Of the promi-
hence given to athletics in compari-
son with scholarship. 1t was hoped
that the athletic director through his
membership on the faculty, would be
able to enlighten them on many re-
spects of the matter.
The Associated Harvard Clubs, 1t
was recalled, appointed a committee
year ago last May to study the
entire athletic situation with the win
ming of more victories one Of the OBJ
Jects to be gained. The committee
found that the Harvard Athletic
Association was overburdened with
work and suggested that the various
authorities consider the establish
ment OF the position of director Of
athletics.
1t was also recalled that the late
Percy D. Haughton. former head
football coach, was suggested for
such a position by members of his
class, 1899, but his death last fall
caused interest in the proposition to
flag. The athletic committee and its
chairman are appointed yearly by the
corporation. 1t consists Of nine mem
bers. three each from the faculty,
graduates and undergraduates. Pro-
lessor Henry Pennypacker is chair
man Of this years committee.

Boxing Sure Cure
For Crime Waves
Word of Trainer

New York, Jan. 23.-(AP)-Fight-
ing will prevent crime, in the opin-
ion of Jimmy Deforrest, veteran
trainer of boxers, but the fighting
must be done in the ring.
Teach the boys to fight with their
fists" he says, land they will grow
up to be clean, fair fighters, and
honest. upright men. It will keep
them from resorting to lethal weap-
ons and will do more than the Sulli-
van and all other laws to wipe out
knives and pistols.
ut will strike at the very root of
crime in this manner, for many of
the killings nowadays are the result
OF the mere possession of weapons
rather than any premeditated in
tent"

its first home game Of the season
the Bowdoin hockey team this af-
ternoon defeated Colby a-2. The
game was characterized by brilliant
individual playing on the part of the
Bowdoin team, with here and there
flashes of real team work. Colby
played a defensive game, almost in
variably keeping three men behind
the goal in their own end Of 1.-THE
rink. Most of Colbys shorts were
long ones from the center of the ice,
Bowdoin on the contrary more often
working the puck down the full
length Of the rink. Bowdoin scored
within minute of play at the start
Of the first period, Whitman receiv-
ing the puck on pass frsm Cole and
slipping it by Fagerstrom. In the
middle Of the second period Cutter
made Bowdoin's second goal putting
the puck into the net on a long shot
from scrimmage. In the last part OF
the periods Drummond. Colby's star
defenseman, produced the most SEN
Sationals play of the game when he
got the puck in the center of the
rink, eluded the Bowdoin defense
men, and succeeded in scoring a
goal unassisted. Murri tied the score
in the first part of the third period
when he scored on rebound. The
Bowdoin team then speeded up, scor-
ing within two minutes when Cutter
rang the bell on a pass from the side
of the rink. Whitman played SEN
sational game for Bowdoin, exhibit
ing great deal of speed, along with
cleverness in handling the stick.
Captain Cutter, with two goals to
his credit. also showed up well. Cole
played good game on the defense,
while Berry's work at goal was about
the best ever seen on the Bowdoin
rink. Drummond and Murri did very
well for Colby, the former especially,
doing good work on the defense.
