Bingham Cracks Down on Professional Football, Calls on College Presidents to Save Amateurism

Twelve members of the Harvard Athletic Association, including the complete football coaching staff and William J. Bingham '16, director of Athletics, attended a special preview of the current March of Time yesterday morning at the University Theatre.

This meeting was arranged by the manager of the Theatre and the Crimson staff, it being felt that the March of Time's expose of football brought squarely before the public the question of the future of football.

Those at the theatre included: Mr. Bingham, Dick Harlow, Howle Odell, Ray Crowther, Skip Stahley, Wes Fesler, Jimmy Dunn and Henry Lamar of the coaching staff C. F. Getchell, general manager of the H.A.A.; Frank Ryan, publicity director; Walter H. Page, II '37, football manager, Robert T. Whitman '38, assistant football manager; Caspar W. Weinberger '38 and Donald B. Straus '38, Crimson football writers; and Frank Lunden, Norman Fradd, and Jim McRae of the H.A.A.
