...come to be looked upon as shady business. Whether it has been altogether wise to place the management of the concessions in the hands of the College Employment Office is another matter. Already there has been friction between the two organizations of a sort which augurs ill for the success of the project. After all, employment is one thing and business management quite another and it is unreasonable to suppose that the two activities may be happily combined. The obvious method of securing an equitable distribution of jobs between athletes and non-athletes is to have this phase...

Tomorrow afternoon will see the Green...

During the afternoon session the coaches gave most of their attention to the third and fourth teams. The Grays, under the direction of Swede Youngstrom, played the part of the Harvard eleven, running through the various Crimson plays and passes with some degree of success. The third and fourth teams were on the defensive during most of the scrimmage, but late in the afternoon Bart McDonough, Bill Morton and Bill McCall took turns at directing the Green team, running through plays which the coaches considered rough in spots and needing some improvement. The practice would have continued until after dark...
