AWARD OF FOOTBALL "H" MADE TO 26 RED SHIRTS

"H" CERTIFICATES TO BE GIVEN FOR FIRST TIME

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The list of those wearers of the Crimson in the football battles against Princeton and Yale who will receive their major "H" has been made public by the H. A. A. Letter awards will go to the following 26 members of the squad: Dudley Boll '28, Henry Chauncey '28, E. C. Clark '27, C. D. Coady '27, L. F. Daley '27, A. E. French '29, E. F. Gamache '27, W. C. Goodwin '29, David Guarnaccia '29, Nathaniel Hamlen '27, B. L. Kilgour '27, C. M. Lindner '27, R. W. Meadows '29, A. H. Miller '27, C. A. Pratt '28, E. T. Putnam '29, J. N. Robinson '27, S. S. Rudman '27, W. G. Saltonstall '28, Madison Sayles '27, Daniel Simonds '28, A. H. Stafford '27, Guilford Stewart '28, B. H. Strong '27, Isadore Zarakov '27, and J. R. Burke '27, manager of the team.

Winners Played Both Games

Of these men, Bell, French, Goodwin, Guarnaccia, Hamlen, Meadows, Putnam, Robinson, Rudman, Saltonstall, Simonds, Strong, and Burke are receiving the football letter for the first time. Although this is the first year that the Princeton encounter has been counted as a letter game, none of the "H" men won their spurs in this tilt alone, but all played in the Yale game. Daley, accounted as a regular guard, and laid low in the middle of the season by an attack of appendicitis, was kept from playing in the letter games for the third successive year, but was awarded a letter by special vote of the Athletic Association, on the recommendation of Captain Coady and Coach Horween.

To all the letter men will be awarded the new "H" certificate designed by W. J. Bingham '16, Director of Athletics. This certificate carries an engraving of a crimson "H", and over the signature of Mr. Bingham and the Secretary of the Athletic Committee attests that the bearer has been awarded a letter in his particular sport. Hitherto a sweater with an "H" has been an athlete's only witness of his winning a University letter.
