...left college, and A. S. Rudd, who graduated, will be balanced by the influx of excellent sophomore material. P. J. Catinella '32, H. H. Broadbent '32 and B. B. Kane '32 of last year's freshman team are expected to star for Harvard. The Harvard lineup for today's game which will start at 1.30 o'clock is as follows: J. P. Faude '31, g; Capt. A. M. Stollmeyer '30, r.f.b., P. J. Catinella '32, l.f.b., F. L. Howe '32, r.h.b., B. B. Kane '32, c.h.b., J. R. Bland '31, l.h.b., D. B. Dorman '32, r.o.f., E. J. Grover...

This idea has been applied especially in choosing coaches, notably in lacrosse and soccer, where young graduates have supplanted middle aged experts. Surely this policy could be furthered considerably in football "giving the game back to the players" as it often has been expressed...
...problem is chiefly, confined to baseball and football. In the case of baseball there is, so far as I am aware, no legitimate ground on which can be defended, in the interest of the game itself, the practice of permitting the coaches to direct the play. In the case of football the problem is a little more difficult, because there is involved the question of withdrawing men who have been more or less injured in play and the substitution of others for them. This situation is thought, with a good deal of justice, to call at times for judgment more...
