...main attractions will be the African Dodger, an agile Ethiopian, father of the first Memorial Hall waiter ever brought into captivity. All Seniors with any pitching ability have been practicing for weeks in the Cage, the scene of the coming orgy, in order to become accustomed to the environment in which they will assail the elusive dodger. There will be several interesting exhibitions. A Jinx, and a Magufflin, one of those strange animals without any face, are being held under the personal guard of the Senior officers, who are relieving one another in four-hour watches.

While in college, Haughton was one of the greatest kickers the game ever had, and he has succeeded in passing on some of his ability to such players as S. M. Felton '13, C. E. Brickley '15, H. R. Hardwick '15, E. W. Mahan '16 and many others...
