‘The Architect of the Whole Plan’: Harvard Law Graduate Ken Chesebro’s Path to Jan. 6
TRENTON, N. J., Nov. 13, 1887.- Graduates of Princeton College residing in this city are very indiguant over the action of Referee Camp in ruling out Cowan from the Princeton team in the foot-ball game with the Harvards at Cambridge. Mass., yesterday. Ex-Captain Moffatt, of the Princetons and Hugh Oliphant, a graduate of the college, speak for their fellow graduates, and contend that Cowan is one of the fairest players who ever kicked a ball. He is undoubtedly the strongest man of the team, and his presence and playing always inspire the other players with vim and courage. When he was ordered to step aside and make room for another the Princeton boys lost courage and could not play with the usual skill and confidence. Cowan was ruled out for "foul tackling," and it is insisted he was not guilty of such action. Had he been allowed to remain in the game, it is contended, the Princeton boys would have won the day.- N. Y. Herald.
