Edward L. Casey '17, Harvard Varsity Football Coach, has been appointed as head of the Boston University summer football school during July and August, it was learned last night. Casey will be assisted by Tuss McLaughry, Varsity grid mentor at Brown...
Most coaches at the convention, however, were inclined to blame "unfair" criticism more than their own shortcomings for the abnormal mortality in jobs. On motion of Brown's Coach D. 0. ("Tuss") McLaughry, it was decided that any coach who feels he is discharged unjustly, may appeal to a committee.

"Music," he said, "is what makes Iron Men. The players depend on rhythm and morale, and unless you have a singer or two on the squad you have a tough time keeping up the morale. Whenever we were in the train on the way to a game I always made them start a song...
